Science may seem like it\u2019s a strange thing \u2014 complicated, even a mystery. But really, science is all about finding out about nature and how things work, the reasons behind every-day things. So it\u2019s more about questions and answers than anything. How? Where? Why?

\n

It\u2019s about making strange, mysterious, and complicated things become things we understand. There\u2019s still lots more that we don\u2019t understand about our world and the whole universe, but that\u2019s where scientists come in. They are always asking questions and then finding the answers. So science isn\u2019t really strange at all! It\u2019s just curious people finding out about everything!
