Percival lowell Memes

Comparing Musk to Einstein? *throws beaker across lab* PREPOSTEROUS! But Percival Lowell? *adjusts crooked glasses* Now THAT'S scientifically accurate! Remember Lowell? The wealthy astronomer who spent his fortune building observatories to study "canals" on Mars that didn't actually exist? He was convinced Martians built them! Sound familiar? Sometimes having money to fund science doesn't mean understanding the science you're funding! *cackles maniacally while scribbling equations*
