I'm not an academic, but I'm someone who has a great passion for science and wants to convey the idea that science is for everyone.

I was awful at science at school, as a subject, because I didn't have the discipline. But, I was awful at music, as well, and I loved music.

I'm not an academic, but I'm someone who has a great passion for science and wants to convey the idea that science is for everyone.

The thing I loved, particularly, was the mystery of science and the idea that science doesn't know all the answers, but it is a process of finding out. It's not like science will give you the right answer and science knows everything. I love the mysteries of it.

I've never felt scared of flight, ever. It's really weird. I don't know. They stick a gin and tonic in your hands and I just think, "Life is good!"

We've only had aircrafts for a hundred years, and yet look at us. So, I've become absolutely fascinated by this strange, bizarre world of airports, air travel and transportation. It's interesting.

If you go through life and actually get to find out the thing you want to do, you're very lucky.
