Question

THE SCIENTIS AND THE WORLD


We need to understand the world.

We are like a man in front of the video. He tries to understand how it works. He cannot open it. He can only observe this video working. He sees and hears it function. He analyses it entirely. He begins to formulate many hypotheses to explain how and why it works so well

When one of his hypotheses is confirmed and accepted, it becomes a scientific theory.

That is what we can do to better understand the world.
