One of my favorite things about Cubetown is I can just make up whatever kind of Science Department I want and have it be an actual thing. This has only been for little throw-away gags so far (and one invisible emu) but I strongly suspect it will play an important role at some point in the future.
Telescopes and bathyscaphes and sonar probes of Scottish lakes, Tacoma Narrows bridge collapse explained with abstract phase-space maps, some x-ray slides, a music score, Minard's Napoleonic war: the most exciting new frontier is charting what's already here.
