Favorite Science Experiment: In high school I became friends with an eccentric scientist who hired me as his part-time lab assistant. He was working on navigating the spacetime continuum using only a sports car, a flux capacitor, and some stolen plutonium. It turned out the machine worked perfectly as I accidentally jumped 30 years into the past where I witnessed mind-bending paradoxes and experienced the thrill of altering history. This experiment ignited my passion for the wonders of science and the possibilities it holds for our future.
