      My favourite thing about science is that making mistakes and getting things wrong is all part of science. Scientists never claim to know the correct answer to something – they just try to figure out the best answer, given the information they have. Then someone else will come along, and show that the old idea was wrong – and that’s not a bad thing! In fact, those are the most exciting moments in science, when we realise an idea is wrong.

      My favourite thing about Science is that it can lead to important discoveries! Plus, every day can be different (and difficult sometimes), and it happens that some results are so unexpectedly weird that they really look like puzzles to solve…that’s what make science so thrilling!
