Science GIFs Will Give You Plenty To Think About

So you aren't sure if you love science? I don't know how that could be possible - but then again - maybe the only thing that comes to mind when science is brought up is how incredibly hard your science teacher was on you in school. But there is so much science going on around you everyday; and it's part of everything you love.

So I have a little experiment for you: Watch these science GIFs and see if your interest can't be piqued even just a little. Goggles on? Then lets go!
