I feel like science is a grown up equivalent of "Hey! Look at this cool thing I found!" and people disregarding it is the same as slapping it out of the kids hand. Is there a scientific specific name for being this condencending and mean?

From what I've read, light/photons in space and electrons through a wire, travel at the same speed, if this is true, why is the electron not slower when it has to go through/interact with much more densely packed atoms?

If the Higgs Boson gives mass/the ability to interact in a specific new way with other particles, does that mean there are other Bosons that give other particles "abilities" to interact with particles like electromagnetic/strong and weak force?

If protons weigh 1 amu, electrons are .0005 amu and they combine to form neutrons (1 amu) in neutron stars, what happens to that extra .0005 amu when they combine?

Been watching The Expanse lately and it seems like it'd be very expensive to mine asteroids while in space. Could it be cost effective/efficient and safe to just send smaller asteroids to earth using rockets and letting them crash in the ocean and mining them in the comfort of home?

How is waving a fan at your face actually cooling you off? Aren't you just expending more energy and heating yourself up more by shaking your arm non stop?

If green light (500-565 nm) is the most abundant wavelength of light the sun emits, why do plants reflect it instead absorbing it and reflecting some other color?

How does a photon rebound back at the peak of it's wavelength and then return at the trough? Why doesn't it just keep going accordingly to the angle set by it's frequency?
