      I would love to be on HMS Beagle with Darwin and travel with him!

      He actually noted some of the microfossils I work on (phytoliths – glass casts of plant cells) as dust on the ship, and I would like to be able to study those with him, work out how to extract them from the dust and find out what plants they came from and where in the world they came from.
