      I’d love to meet Sir Brian Hoskins – a very well respected scientist in the Atmospheric Sciences.

      Definitely David Attenborough, to talk about climate change

      Ada lovelace. She was a scientist and mathematician who lived about 200 years ago who actually invented the first ever computer! ( not electric of course but a mechanical computing machine) it would be amazing to meet her!

      Amelia Earhart (first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean) or Mary Anning (fossil hunter who discovered marine reptile bones in Dorset)

      Oooo great question! I have a book at the moment which has 50 female scientists (from all different kinds of areas) throughout history. I’d love to meet any of the women on this list because they are all pioneers in their field, and I think a discussion with any one of them would be eye opening and super interesting!

      This is the book if you were interested! (the artwork is also beautiful 🙂 )
