Who is your favorite scientist alive at the moment?

My favorite is Neil deGrasse Tyson. He's an astrophysicist and deals with mostly theoretical aspects of space, but I consider him a scientist because of the way he studies things and makes conclusions. The thing I love about him is that he makes even the most complex and boring facts seem so interesting.

I've learned a lot from him by just watching videos of him on youtube.

My favorite alive scientist is A P J abdul kalam.

Astronomy is so intriguing to me, and I have always been a huge fan of Stephen Hawking. When I was younger I read A Brief From the Big Bang to Black Holes and also A Reader's Companion, and I could actually understand what he was talking about. He has a great ability to take the wildest concepts and ideas and put them into perspective that even a teenager can understand.

Stephen Hawking. I don't care what your scientific leanings are, he is truly a brilliant mind and phenomenal comunicator, all the while hampered by his severe disabilities. He could just sit and research, and spare himself the torture, but instead he struggles against his maladies to share his discoveries and genius with us "commoners".

He is truly amazing.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
