And I thought we were going to revisit planet farther again

I was happy to see that this week's lab posed a question that did not have a set answer to it. We, as scientists had the freedom to choose how to approach and test the prompt. We also had the liberty to make up stories for all of the observations made that day. This kind of thing not only leaves us with questions unanswered but with more questions to think about which I feel like is the most crucial difference between all labs I have ever done before entering college. The fact tthat here is an inifite number of possible "wrong" hypotheses and only one "right" one to answer life questions opens up doors to an infinite number of more hypotheses to question life.
