For more than 150 years, photography has been the main way that we document our lives. Science makes it possible, so understanding the physics and chemistry behind your snaps might make you a better "shooter." And it's not just photography—science is all around us, every hour of every day. Discover more ways that science is a part of our lives in SCIENCE 24–7!
