WHAT IS SCIENCE?
Science is the study of the nature and behavior of natural phenomena, as well as our knowledge of them.
A branch of science, such as physics, chemistry, or biology, is referred to as a science. The best example
of a science that has produced strong, abstract theories is physics.
Any body of knowledge that deals with the physical world and its phenomena and is based on unbiased
observations and methodical experiments. A science, in general, is the pursuit of knowledge that
encompasses broad facts or the operations of fundamental laws. A number of articles go into greater
detail on science.
What are its contribution?
Science is the finest example of a group effort. It helps us live longer and healthier lives by monitoring our
health, providing medicine to cure diseases, alleviating aches and pains, assisting us in providing water for
our basic needs – including food – providing energy, and making life more enjoyable through sports,
music, entertainment, and cutting-edge communication technology.
Science generates solutions for everyday life and helps us to answer the great mysteries of the universe.
In other words, science is one of the most important channels of knowledge. It has a specific role, as well
as a variety of functions for the benefit of our society: creating new knowledge, improving education, and
increasing the quality of our lives.
Science has a responsibility to respond to society demands and global concerns. Citizens must be able to
make educated personal and professional decisions based on their comprehension and engagement with
science, as well as citizen participation, particularly through scientific popularization. On subjects like
health and agriculture, governments must make decisions based on high-quality scientific data.
Why Science is important?
We are living in a technologically advanced civilization. Knowledge is becoming an increasingly valuable
resource, alongside mineral resources, capital, and physical activity. It helps countries compete on a global
basis by contributing to the functioning of democracy and innovation. However, science, which makes a
significant contribution to knowledge development, faces new problems.
The role of science in an increasingly fragmented and digital society, as well as its significance for politics
and civil society, will be redefined. Science can never offer a universal truth or an objective representation
of the world. It can, however, offer methodologically verifiable interpretations and can question
certainties and trigger reflections. Science has an important social role and at the same time bears great
responsibility precisely when the situation is not clear.
