Science
Science is a way of investigating, understanding, and explaining our natural, physical world and the wider universe. It involves generating and testing ideas, gathering evidence, including by making observations, carrying out investigations and modelling, and communicating and debating with others, in order to develop scientific knowledge, understanding, and explanations.
Scientific progress comes from logical, systematic work and from creative insight, built on a foundation of respect for evidence.
Different cultures and periods of history have contributed to the development of science.
