Discovery

All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.
~ Galileo Galilei

I always have wanted to discover something — a planet, for example.  When asked if I ever actually tried to find a new planet, I responded, "Yes.  I used to look through my Tasco telescope as a child to try and find new planets, but to no avail."

And, yes, I know that the photo above is of a microscope and not a telescope.  I also tried to discover cures for things, but mostly I just looked at the pre-made slides of bug wings.

Science is hard.
