All week long he would be racking his brains on How on earth could all this stuff be happening.
On his weekend trip on one occasion there in front of him is a double helix self folding amazing coded system... DNA was discovered.
The more he delved the more and more complicated it seemed to get and then he realised it was a computer programme.
Who though programmed it?
He couldn't believe in God so he declared it had to be a very advanced civilisation that had found a way to fire out this information into the universe in the hope it would find somewhere it could replicate and survive but no way could this programming be the result of accidents in a world of mud and lightening!
It took the experience and experimental skills of Rosalind Franklin to obtain high-quality X-ray diffractograms that contained the definitive information that Watson and Crick needed to propose their famous DNA model.
Franklin was never nominated for a Nobel Prize. She died at 37 in 1958. Her work was a crucial part in the discovery of DNA's structure, which, along with subsequent related work, led to Francis Crick, James Watson, and Maurice Wilkins being awarded a Nobel Prize in 1962
Not a bad result for a weekend getting high!

By Francis Crick under the influence of LSD.
Every weekend he'd go on a pleasure trip.
