Big K&R
Significant finding.
My hubby is also a scientist, a physicist, who also get emotional when he's made big discoveries and breakthroughs (although retired now, he's currently writing the biggest paper of his life).
We non-scientists can relate to these peak experiences.

Recognising their rights would mean an end to whaling and their captivity, or their use in entertainment.
