      It’s hard to pick just one thing! But I really like knowing how things work. I think the universe looks much more beautiful when you know how it came to be 🙂
      Great Question,

      I like that science is always wrong about stuff. It doesn’t pretend to know more than it does, and is always saying “whoooops, sorry guys, got that one wrong” to everyone 🙂 Because it’s so honest, it makes it much easier to trust. We’re learning new things all the time – and one of things that makes science special is that you’re allowed to change your mind about stuff when you have new information.

      It also means that being a scientist is so exciting, because you can question everything, and sometimes discover really important new things that nobody knew before (or even that people thought was wrong!). A hundred years ago, no one really believed in black holes. Now we measure them all the time 😀 So even in one short human lifetime, we’ll get to see the entire face of science completely change into something new – there are very few other subjects which are like that.

      My favourite thing about science it that the Universe is infinite so we can never get bored of it!
