It is often in moments of quiet reflection that a flash of brilliance can occur. Archimedes, the man to which the original Eureka moment is popularly attributed to, had his epiphany whilst getting into a bath. This moment eventually developed into the Archimedes Principle – used to determine the volume of an object with an irregular shape and a historic discovery in fluid dynamics.

It is not just Archimedes who has had a lightbulb moment in seemingly strange circumstances. James Watson cracked the structure of DNA whilst asleep, when he dreamt of a spiral staircase – mirroring the double helix structure of DNA, and JK Rowling, author of the now famous Harry Potter books, had her original idea for the novels whilst on a crowded train home!
