      I think I’ve always loved science, but when I knew I loved it. I was in year 6, I did a little project where I measured how tall dandelions were. I found that dandelions that grew in the shade were always taller than the ones that grew in the sun. I found out that science is all around us and there’s no end to what we can learn about the world around us!
      Great question,

      Ryan

      I’ve always liked science. I was very curious when I was little and used to ask Why? to everything! I think it really annoyed a lot of people. In particular I used to love space! looking out into the Universe and seeing how beautiful the stars were, I knew that one day I wanted to leave the Earth and go explore one of those shiny stars!

      I liked science when I was young, particularly seeing how things worked. I remember going to a planetarium show when I was probably around 12 or so and thinking astrophysics sounded pretty cool. But I’m very indecisive and I was still very unsure what I wanted to do as a job when I left school!
