Scientific Musings, insights and ideas

Welcome to this source of fascinating, quirky and stimulating insights from the world of science… I have always been fascinated by the development of science and the way that theories evolve over time, increasing our understanding of the world around us and through this, enabling us to understand ourselves as humans. The story of science is made from the stories of the scientists, mathematicians, engineers and philosophers who devoted their lives to pushing back against ignorance, prejudice and superstition. This blog is dedicated to those scientific pioneers of the past and of today.
