Meet BACON


Meet BACON. He and his twin sister, TESLA, are the Science Sector Heroes. BACON gets himself in to all sorts of funny situations. Thankfully, TESLA is there to help straighten things out. Science Sector is front and center in Zoom-a-thon Episode 1 and the beginning of Episode 2.

Although BACON is a huge fan of the breakfast meat, bacon, he actually takes his super hero name from English scientists, Francis Bacon and Roger Bacon. Roger Bacon was an English scientist from the 1200s and Francis Bacon was an English scientist from the 1500s. Both Bacons made contributions to science through their advocation for the scientific method of discovery through experimentation.
