Did pop culture spark an interest in your STEM career? 📺 We recently asked our audience if there was a piece of pop culture that taught them something about science. We had a huge response, with some answers also pointing out how TV shows and movies helped inspire a career in science. Overall, Captain Planet was the most popular answer, with other favourites including The Magic School Bus, Star Wars, Mythbusters, Carmen Sandiego, X-Men, and both Doctor Who and Dr. Karl (a duo we'd love to see). Whether it be in a galaxy far, far away, or via a flying yellow bus, it doesn't matter how you get there. Science is for everyone.
