The Simple Invisible

This quote caught my eye, lifted from the New York Times’ Sean Carroll today:

“One of my favorite observations about scientific progress was offered by the Nobel physicist Jean Baptiste Perrin, who said that the key to any advance was to be able “to explain the complex visible by some simple invisible.””

That about sums it up doesn’t it?
