What do you think a great scientist need most Why
The definition of scientific spirit is, above all else, the questioning mind. Take Stephen Hawking for example. He was sensitive enough to grasp a problem and challenged the steady state theory as a young man. Furthermore, he believed in the findings enough to bravely present them, prove and perfect them. The scientific spirit is to look squarely, ask questions and never give up trying.

Great scientists have some common characteristics: they are knowledgeable, gifted and self-sacrificing for the greater good of the country or humanity, brave and determined. What impresses me most is Tu Youyou’s devotion and perseverance in discovering artemisinin. She has spent 40 year’ time on scientific research. Thus science is never about instant success.
What matters to a scientist is also leadership and patriotism. We can see this in Qian Xuesen’s life, pioneering to another country to work with and inspire like-minded people in his field and to collaborate on their work. We can see it in his vigour to return to China and lead their aerospace programme through its birthing stages.
