I read about the discovery of the shape of DNA. Anyone who has ever seen the movie Jurassic Park, knows that DNA comes in the shape of a double helix, but the way we came to that conclusion was a very interesting story.

Several people were working very hard to find the shape of DNA. One of those people was Maurice Wilkins, who decided to use a new technology called X-Ray diffraction in order to see how light passed through the DNA structure. From that information he had more ideas of what it might look like, but we were still very far off from deciding it was a double helix.

A few other scientists named Crick and Watson decided to take a slightly different approach. Since we knew the four elements that made up DNA, and we knew how those

The Double Helix: Watson and Crick and the Forgotten Names James Watson and Francis Crick were at best interpreters in a time of constantly-expanding scientific knowledge. Despite seeming to have intellect and experience enough to make their own discoveries, the real credit for the discovery of the structure of DNA lies with the three scientists who made the most contributions to the work: Linus Pauling, Rosalind Franklin, and Maurice Wilkins. Their work in the field of DNA shed light onto the truth value of various theories that would have remained mysteries except for their accomplishments. Moreover, Watson and Crick had no qualms about stealing the work and ideas of others, nor did they have any notions of respecting their peers’ wishes, and they openly admitted to it in this text. All Watson and Crick cared about was potential glory, and the points below will outline why they are deserving of none.

Anika Sheth Ms. Sitar B3 English Honors 19 December 2022 Creations of New Technologies in Jurassic Park and Frankenstien John Hammond and Victor Frankenstien both act out of self pride heavily driven by ambition thinking they are working to better the world. From a young age, Victor Frankenstein was captivated by science, and read works published by philosophers such as Cornealious Agrippa and Albertus Magnus, he became inspired by the ideas they presented, and took it upon himself to try and further develop their studies. Victor says, "Wealth was an inferior object, but what glory would attend the discovery that I could banish disease from the human frame and render man invulnerable to any but a violent death!” (Shelley 26).

I do not agree with the proposal to open Jurassic Park. The person who brought this concept to life was John Hammond, the owner and founder of InGen Corporation. John Hammond was portrayed as greedy, which impacts his judgement wholly. I do not believe that Hammond is a very logical person, as he seems much too financially invested in his park to worry about plausible complications. He acts blindly and naïvely, as he continued to believe that nothing could go wrong in his park.

The making of film, or the concept of it, has been around since the beginning of the 18th century. The lens of the camera has captured some of the most beautiful things, but also the most prejudice. Stereotypes of races, ethnicities, and gender have always been around but were widely considered acceptable in films of that era. Almost as long as there have been people filming, there have been people fighting for equality to be presented on the big screen. Danez Smith is one of these modern fighters in his free verse poem “Dinosaurs in the Hood.”

The amount of safety and security that would have to be in place in Jurassic Park would be extreme, mainly due to civilian safety. Security could come from other countries, and/or governments that have invested in the park itself or even volunteers who come to help. Security would have access to high powered weapons as well as larger scale weapons for the larger dinosaurs. Cages that would be able to withstand a dinosaur’s fury would have to be implemented, as well as the use of electric fences. The park would be more secure if there was security and a group of police officers that regularly patrol holding areas, and tourist centers.
