Difference between an engineer and a scientist?
There's a lot of overlap BUT scientists EXPLORE while engineers CREATE

500
Where did rockets originate?
They originated in China. Fireworks were early rockets.

Why do all the lights turn off in a series circuit when you remove one light bulb?
The loop is no longer complete. It's like we now have a switch that is set to off.
