Hello, just introducing myself. I am 44 and have always been a self-taught science buff. Sadly, I'm not good at math, so I'm mostly into popular science (I studied biology for a while, and still adore most aspects of especially evolutionary biology). But I am trying to educate myself about physics and cosmology despite not knowing any particular math, and I hope to discover that it's possible to understand quite a bit about the laws of nature even so! I will ask questions on these forums whenever I need something explained - looking forward to it!

Wow! Doesn't physics require a lot of math - I mean if you're a practising physicist? Or can a physicist actually get by with computer calculations these days?
