Intellectual minds have pondered about unresolved scientific questions since time immemorial. Is there life on other planets? What extremes can the human body endure? Can we solve the problem of global warming? Each generation of humans is confronted with new challenges that need to be understood first in order to be resolved. Today, scientists, explorers, and writers are working to answer all of these questions. Like Edison, Einstein, Curie, and Newton, the scientists of today are asking questions and working on problems that may revolutionize our lives and world.
