|On lot is raining moneybags, gems, metals and spacerocks and sometimes magic gnomes. Note that you don't need all three Sims at the same time to activate this. Have one Sim gradually fill a light to one third of the machine and repeat with the other two. This way you can achieve this state more easily. |

- For other uses, see Science (disambiguation).
Science is a new skill introduced in The Sims 3: University Life. Science skill can be increased by reading any of the 3 skill books, by using the Science Research Station or the Group Science Project, by taking classes in the Science building, or by using scientific socials with others.
Having the Science skill will boost job performance in the Science and Medical careers. Sims with enough points in the skill will begin these careers at a higher level when accepting job offers.
Having the Science skill is also helpful when fishing, gardening, and collecting. Items that a scientific Sim acquires in these ways will have a chance to be higher quality. Samples can be gathered by analyzing minerals, plants, fish and insects. These samples can then be researched to gain even more scientific knowledge.
Interactions
The Group Science Project activities are: Study the Red Pad Tie Node, Interface with the Green Mind Melder Module, and Adjust the Blue Magnatomic Pulse Array. These experiments gives sims various moodlets and abilities:
The Science Research Station activities are: Research Science, Gene Splicing Experiment, Horticulture Experiment, Clone from Sample, Research Sample, Herb Experiment, and Radiation Experiment. Experiments may fail or succeed:
Experiment | Ingredients | Failure | Success | Epic Success |
---|---|---|---|---|
Gene Splicing Experiment | Seed | Destroyed or decreased quality | Changed from one seed into another seed | Transformed into a Forbidden Fruit Seed |
Horticulture Experiment | Seed or coffee bean or plant | Destroyed or decreased quality | Increased quality | Transformed into a perfect Empanada (food) |
Herb Experiment | Herbs | Destroyed or decreased quality | Increased quality | Transmute into a Bottle of Super Spice |
Radiation Experiment | Bugs | Destroyed | Bug stays alive | Transmute into a Plasma Bug |
Resulting Item | Use | |
---|---|---|
Forbidden Fruit Seed | Can grow Forbidden Fruit to become Plantsim | |
Empanada | Eat | |
Bottle of Super Spice | Use this on food to add spice (foods quality increases) or on PlantSims to cure them | |
Plasma Bug | Very expensive bug (§4,000) |
