What about science interests you?

<p>Just curious, Also please specify what subject of science you are studying :)</p>

<p>I enjoy astrophysics. Just knowing that we may be one of many other universes and dimensions (M-Theory). I like to know what really happens when one approaches the singularity of a black hole. Is matter really crushed into nothing more than a fraction of its size, but still contains the same mass? Do wormholes really exist? Can you actually actually go right through a black hole unscathed by entering at the proper angle/velocity? What other types of orbits are planets capable of. We know they are capable of retrograde orbit. Can they orbit in a saw-like orbit.(Still a elliptical type of movement, except in a up and down rotation). Space is currently expanding at a rapid rate. What happens after it stops? Can it reverse and shrink into nothingness again? This is what I love about science, mainly the universe and the world of astrophysics.</p>

<p>lol does Computer science count? I like the problem solving aspect of it</p>

<p>I use to be fascinated with proteins and molecular biology.</p>

<p>Now I am just fascinated that any American would go to college for the better part of a decade to study and be impoverished.</p>

<p>Currently High School Chemistry, but hoping for Biochemistry in college. I love how it allows us to understand how ALL of our processes, from body to atmospheric, works. It is interesting how we can unfold many mysteries of how things happen and apply it to the “real world” to improve living standards and such!</p>

<p>except improve the living standard of the people who got a degree in science</p>

<p>I am interested in geology, biology and astrophysics. I am always amazed that all of the chemical elements that make up everything we see was created by cosmic processes. I am very interested in the composition of our planet and the processes that shape our landscapes. I am interested in how our earth systems developed and how they affect life and how life in turn, affects earth systems.</p>

<p>I am also interested in developing more efficient and sustainable methods of utilizing natural resources.</p>

<p>I am currently studying geology and conservation biology.</p>

<p>Really into Neuroscience, specifically experimental behavioral/cognitive neuroscience. I definitely see myself doing research on the biological basis of human behavior (:
Also, anything related to genetics and the immune system. Bio girl up in hereeee (; </p>

<p>Biology: the study of life is possibly the most fascinating and unbelievable topic in the entire world.</p>

<p>Computer Science: the work that we do drives the pace of innovation in every other scientific discipline, has direct, tangible benefits for a tremendous number of people, and ultimately has the potential to advance humanity as a species in ways that no previous breakthrough has even begun to approach.</p>

<p>As for me, personally: I’m doing cutting edge work for one the world’s largest and most prestigious companies and making a lot of money in the process. What’s not to like?</p>

<p>The serfdom, the low pay, and the general lack of opportunities outside of research.</p>

<p>Science, at its essence, is the pursuit of knowledge. I do statistics, because I get to deal with the world of abstract mathematical beauty and the real life applications of all fields of science. It can even be applied to the mindless, cult-like games of finance and economics. But I prefer to stick to real, meaningful and helpful applications. Like in medicine.</p>

<p>So blob, being a statistician, are my chances of winning a jackpot from a scratchoff lottery higher, if I buy more, and if I buy the more expensive ones?</p>

<p>Depends on the type of lottery. Some scratch-games can be cracked to know which tickets are more likely to win. Otherwise, most lotteries have negligible chances of winning the jackpot.</p>

<p>I should have chosen stats, lol. I chose economics instead. It has some statistics in it, but mostly market forecasting and regression curves.</p>

<p>This is a great example of how a good knowledge of statistics is useful. ;)</p>
