Scientists at work

Scientists at work.

they study volcanoes and tsunamis

to help people flee in time to safer places,

Scientists study how to harness wind for cleaner energy

and capture sunlight to split water.

we do experiments to understand why rapidly rotating

asteroids do not fling themselves apart in microgravity

and wonder at the beautiful swirls of smoke

drifting off the end of a cigarette.

it's all in the physics of fluid dynamics.

we are the ones who observe and measure

we model and calculate

to understand our amazing world.

we are scientists

we must march

we must stand.
