Can you decline to advance after rolling the science die, and do you still get the benefit or bonus if you stay put?
Publisher staff and the designer each answered this on BGG, and the base rulebook's Science section says you may choose not to advance after the roll.

Yes, you may decline the advance, but the roll itself is mandatory. If you decline, you gain neither the benefit nor the option to pay for the bonus. Free movement offered by a green die is optional too.
