Personification is the humanizing of an object, e.g "the tree speaking in the wind".  A metaphor is used to make direct comparisons between two subjects. An onomatopoeia is a word that shows "sound", e.g BANG. Alliteration is a number of words all beginning with the same letter, e.g Adam ate apple at Alabama.

Mrac [35]
A simile can be found when using "like" or "as" between two things. Example: I'm as happy as a clown.

Your question would be a metaphor. Both things are being compared to a science expieriment, probably meaning that they need to have an outcome, but it isn't known for sure if it will be a good or bad outcome.

Things like this can be taken many ways, so if you think something else, I'm sure it would work as well.
