In the 19th century, if you had a basement lab, you could make major scientific discoveries in your own home. Right? Because there was all this science just lying around waiting for somebody to pick it up.
No séc. XIX, se tivéssemos um laboratório na cave podíamos fazer grandes descobertas científicas lá em casa. Porque havia toda esta ciência à nossa volta, à espera que alguém a agarrasse.
