Science isn’t just a body of knowledge—it’s a way of asking better questions.
Every microscope, every satellite, every genome sequencer is a wager: that the universe is intelligible, and that understanding it will help us thrive.

The most important revolutions didn’t always feel like revolutions.
A doctor insisting on hand-washing.
A chemist pulling nitrogen from air.
An agronomist breeding rust-resistant wheat.
Quiet minds saved billions.
History changes when someone insists: there must be a better way.

As we face climate change and inequality, we can learn from their strengths and work toward a future of equity and sustainability.
