Determining Fact from Fiction
Introduction
Science is a process that involves the study and understanding of our world. It involves asking good questions, formulating these questions into experiments that have observable outcomes, and then performing the experiments to find out what happens. It is a process that has had unparalleled success in finding out about the universe.
Science has led to the mapping of the human genome, which contains the chemical instructions to make each and every human. Science allows us to send people to outer space and bring them back again. Science has provided ways to precisely predict when eclipses will happen, and anticipate the paths that comets take as they orbit the Sun, and perhaps, make a close approach to Earth.
