Would you rather grab a meal with Taylor Swift — or Bill Gates? How about Elon Musk or LeBron James?
When those questions were posed as part of a new survey examining attitudes about science in the U.S. and around the world, Americans showed their preference for science over pop culture and sports. Seventy-two percent of Americans who participated in the survey picked Bill over Taylor, and 59 percent went with Elon over LeBron.
More broadly, the 3M State of Science Index survey — commissioned by Minnesota-based manufacturer 3M and released today — shows that while Americans are fascinated by science and generally optimistic about what it will bring, we’re also a bit skeptical.
