J.J. Thomson contributed an invaluable information to the field of science. In 1894, Thomson’s research commenced. He focused his attention to the study of cathode rays. Cathode rays are beams of electrons (negative electrical charges) that come from the cathode of a high-vacuum tube. Thomson had equipment that was considered very high-tech. It was much more advanced than what others at the time were using. From his experiments with cathode rays, Thomson was able to figure out that atoms are made

In this book, I had assumed that this would be- because of what school I attend- a book that has to do with sorting all science into two categories: under God or mythical and falling into a pseudo-science.

No one gives much thought to the individuals who spent countless days and weeks tediously programming away and creating these complex computational systems

Both Frankenstein and Blade Runner deal with issues of science and nature, and their implications upon their respective societies. Through their contextual basis, we understand the relationship between the two, and the concerns that arise by its exploration. Their confrontation is didactic, through their warnings of things to come; the texts voice these issues as of universal concern. Singularly, both texts confront the origin of creation. This corruption of nature, of faith is possibly the greatest
