America’s love affair with science may be going through a rocky patch,
but it wasn’t always so. This country was founded by
scientist-statesmen like Jefferson and Franklin, and from the launch of
Sputnik to the fall of the Soviet Union science was a very big part of
our culture. We were the moon-shot nation, the can-do nation, the A-ok
and the right stuff. Advocates, artists and scientists will help us
see new strategies for renewing America’s love affair with science, and
the key role science has in shaping our ongoing success as a nation.
