Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone can give me some information on getting into science. I am happy with what I do for a job now (I.T. Technician) but have an interest in maybe doing experiments etc. Don't have very much science experience so any help could be great.

Without any official science education, I think you might have a little trouble getting a job in science research (which is where the majority of the experimenting is done). I would recommend trying to take some courses at a nearby college. You could try doing some online classes, but you'll really need some hands-on lab classes at one point or another.
