Answer 1

Depends on how you look at it. If it's a home experiment, then yes. But if you're waling up to a scientist he or she might disagree and not preform the experiment.

Answer 2

I think simple curiosity is a valid reason to begin a scientific investigation. I sure many scientists started by thinking" I wonder why this or that is happening" After all one definition of curiosity is Desire to Know.
