      Many things can be hard. Science at times can be a bit hard. I think finding cure for cancer (besides infections) is something that always intrigues me

      Hard question because exploring something new can always be hard.
      Invisibility must be hard because how do you explore something you can’t see!? 🤔😅

      This really depends on who you are – something that I find easy (like writing computer code) might be really challenging to a someone else, whereas I might find their work really hard. If you have training in that area, there are always challenges, but it’s always do-able! In maths, there are a series of problems which are known to be really hard and you win a prize if you solve them – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Prize_Problems#:~:text=The%20Millennium%20Prize%20Problems%20are,correct%20solution%20to%20each%20problem.

      Different subjects are harder for different people. I never enjoyed art because I’m not really creative, so I found it hard. Whereas other people are great artists and may find science hard.

      That would depend on the area that interests you. There are hard things everyday. Sometimes if you find a subject difficult – you might like the challenge to try and understand this – which will help the learning.

      Oh, that’s a tough one. I suppose different people find different things hard (I find maths really hard so anything involving lots of maths would be hard for me!), but cancer research seems to be really tricky. It’s a really complicated thing that keeps finding new ways to dodge around different treatments!

      For me? Physics, but it’s different for everyone.
