I've only just joined this forum and would like to get to know some people and the reasons they are drawn to science, It really saddens me when people are just not interested in science and this is really the main reason i have decided to join a forum, I read books, research the internet and just find so many fascinating things in every field of science but the people around me are just not interested...BUT WHY? . I have a huge passion for a range of sciences, particularly weird ones, Althought my mathematic ability is very small i try to understand the concepts of quantum mechanics because the outcomes are just so "weird" but i look at it as if we were fish living in the deepest depths of the ocean, what we would see as the norm would no longer be the norm if we traveled several thousands meters upwards, We evolved to recognise our surroundings the quantum level of things are not recognisable to us and when things are recognisable they become weird. Weirdness is of course not the only thing that draws me to this area of science as an interest but it's the fact it can be tested and experiment agrees with predictions, if i wanted JUST weirdness i would stick to some holy books or ancient myths.
Anyway before i ramble about everything that draws me to science i would love to read your rambles, possibly; the point in your childhood you first became interested, when and how did you know the specific science you chose to study/want to study and any other interesting points!
Thank-you very much, hope my first post wasn't totally incoherent (I can't be bothered to re-read it) and boring![]()
