   Why was Hynek interested in science?

   • Years later Hynek would admit that his attraction to science stemmed, to a great degree, from his interest in the unknown, and the unknowable: “For me,” he once said to his friend and colleague Dr. Jacques Vallée, “the challenge was to find out the very limitations of science, the places where it broke down, the phenomena it didn’t explain.”
