after job/ after work/ after quitting hours scientist Explanation: is meant here. He deals with science just for pleasure or fun, without financial reasons. Perhaps "after quitting hours amateurlike scientist" would convey the idea the best. Something like Tsiolkovski in Russia. Hope it helps. Good luck, marghib2! |
