	Dr. Chappell was pre-eminent among those seeking clarity in alternative concepts of contemporary physics, cosmology, and natural philosophy. Much of his life was devoted to promoting scholarly discussions and critiques of opposing viewpoints in those fields. Toward that end, he organized and chaired sessions in annual regional meetings of the American Association for Advancement of Science (AAAS), which attracted leading speakers and scientists from around the world. These comprised the largest group of such scholarly discussions ever held in the U.S., as recognized in <em>Galilean Electrodynamics</em>, V5, N6 (Nov/Dec 1994); ''Apeiron'', V1, N20 (Oct 1994), and <em>Apeiron</em>, V2, N4 (Oct 1995).

			In 2015, the NPA membership abandoned the NPA after rouge directors took over and formed the [[John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society]], paying homage to the modern father of critical scientific thinking.
