Science is not done in laboratories just. Sometimes you need to dirty your hand to learn
A conservative image of a scientist is one in a white lab coat that periods in a microscope in a laboratory filled with test tubes and exotic devices.
While the work of the lab is an important element of scientific research, there is an entire side for science, where investigators go out in nature equipped with cameras, sound recorders, and other devices, which are actively looking at the subject in which they are interested.
This may involve creeping under bushes to observe a den of wild dogs in Africa, record turtles as they talk to each other in a reputed Canadian park or open almost ancient incans with high-tech scanners in Peru.
Of course, such adventures can come up with surprise, such as finding an unexplained bomb from the Second World War, testing a mineral-projecting drone in a marsh near Ottawa. This is all that makes science exciting.
Field work is the place where many scientific data collect that they then examine back into the laboratory.
Although some people seem like strange sex life of pests in tropical rainforests may question the purpose of looking at irrelevant subjects, all scientific investigation is an attempt to understand the basic functioning of nature. And there are so many that we still do not know, especially when it comes to connection.
As the famous naturalist John Muir said, “When someone tugs the same thing in nature, he finds it connected to the rest of the world.”
Science is the tool that we use to find out how insects are connected to the web of life that involves our planet, and shows how life is associated with geological phenomena such as environment, oceans and volcanic explosions, all talk to create amazing ecosystems called Prithvi.
On a severe scale, astronomers look at the last atmosphere of our planet as it revolves around a star, as well as an unimaginably large galaxy with hundreds of billions of stars that is one of the other galaxies one of the billions of other galaxies that fill the giant uncomplicated giant unimaginable universe that is growing bigger than the other.
For 50 years, Quirks & Quarks Every week these scientists are following these progress and the remarkable thing is that during that time, people are rapidly interested in science and hear scientists.
Of course we face challenges such as climate change, increasing population, high demand for energy, water and food, while natural places and species disappear.
But the tool to understand and find ways to measure these problems is science, which is why it is important to have a scientifically literate society to make informed decisions that lead to permanent solutions.
We hope to contribute to those who practice it by presenting science from those who practice it. Stay for a special episode celebrating our 50th birthday in October. We are looking forward to new discoveries on the horizon in many areas of science, to see how far we have come after the first aired in 1975.
There is still a lot to learn about the universe, from the nature of dark matter and dark energy, to the origin of life and what life exists on other planets, how humans can grow in a changing world. Whatever the eyes of science see, Quirks will be to tell you about it.
