Quote on Science by Martin Rees
Previous Quote
"Crucial to science education is hands-on involvement: showing, not just telling; real experiments and field trips and not just 'virtual reality.'"

"If we ever established contact with intelligent life on another world, there would be barriers to communication. First, they would be many light years away, so signals would take many years to reach them: there would be no scope for quick repartee. There might be an IQ gap."

"Everything, however complicated - breaking waves, migrating birds, and tropical forests - is made of atoms and obeys the equations of quantum physics. But even if those equations could be solved, they wouldn't offer the enlightenment that scientists seek. Each science has its own autonomous concepts and laws."
