I think people are realizing that engineering and science are extremely good degrees to get and you'll be very highly paid once you've got them.

I'm not into politics but I am committed to a cause: ensuring design technology and engineering stays on the U.K. curriculum, alongside science and maths - grounding abstract theory, merging the practical with the academic.

My interest in film is sort of catholic - apart from science fiction and horror movies, I'll watch almost everything.

Design and technology should be the subject where mathematical brainboxes and science whizzkids turn their bright ideas into useful products.

If I can get some student interested in science, if I can show members of the general public what's going on up there in the space program, then my job's been done.

What I do is not rocket science, but I sure do love it.

Science has nothing to be ashamed of even in the ruins of Nagasaki. The shame is theirs who appeal to other values than the human imaginative values which science has evolved.

That is the essence of science: ask an impertinent question, and you are on the way to a pertinent answer.

Science is spectral analysis. Art is light synthesis.

What we must understand is that the industries, processes, and inventions created by modern science can be used either to subjugate or liberate. The choice is up to us.
