Ever thought about how we've let fear dictate what we explore in science? The spinthariscope—a simple, yet fascinating tool to observe radioactive decay—has been tossed aside like yesterday's trash because of our irrational paranoia about radiation. Seriously? We’re hiding from knowledge while kids these days settle for mindless screens! I recently stumbled upon the concept of this old-school science toy and couldn't help but feel frustrated. It’s a fun way to introduce curiosity in science, yet we’re stuck in this bubble of fear. It’s time to bring back the spinthariscope and spark some real interest in the mysteries of our universe! Let’s stop letting fear control our learning. Embrace curiosity, not anxiety! https://hackaday.com/2025/11/17/watching-radioactive-decay-with-a-homemade-spinthariscope/ #ScienceEducation #CuriosityMatters #Spinthariscope #ReigniteWonder #FearlessLearning
