The qualities of a good scientist vary according to their specialisation, but in general they need:

- to be able to make observations on the things that they are studying

- to be able to ask meaningful questions about the item they are studying

- to be able to suggest answers to the questions that they ask

- to be able to test their answers by making more observations.

Good scientists should be able to be passionate about their ideas, but objective in how they view them. In other words, they should be willing to work hard to develop and test their ideas, but they have to be willing to let those ideas go if they are proven to be incorrect.
