Because Cave Johnson is truly the king of “No Fucks Given”.
Science isn’t about why - it’s about why not. You ask, Why is so much of our science dangerous? I say, Why not marry safe science if you love it so much? In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won’t hit you in the butt on the way out - because you are fired.
All these science spheres are made out of asbestos, by the way. Keeps out the rats. Let us know if you feel a shortness of breath, a persistent dry cough, or your heart stopping. Because that’s not part of the test. That’s asbestos.
Now, you might be asking yourself, “Cave, just how difficult are these tests? What was in that phonebook of a contract I signed? Am I in danger?” Let me answer those questions with a question. Who wants to make sixty dollars? Cash. You can also feel free to relax for up to twenty minutes in the waiting room, which is a damn sight more comfortable than the park benches most of you were sleeping on when we found you. So! Welcome to Aperture. You’re here because we want the best, and you’re it. Nope. Couldn’t keep a straight face.
Just a heads up: we’re gonna have a superconductor turned up full blast and pointed at you for the duration of this next test. I’ll be honest - we’re throwing science at the wall here to see what sticks. No idea what it’ll do. Probably nothing. Best-case scenario, you might get some superpowers. Worst case, some tumors, which we’ll cut out.
