History of The World: What Is Science? Is Created

Science is the study of the natural world through observation and experimentation. It began in the 16th century with scientists like Copernicus, Vesalius, and Galileo, who pioneered the scientific method of forming hypotheses and testing them through experimentation. The scientific method is central to modern science, as it provides an objective process for investigating phenomena and communicating results. While science seeks to understand nature, technology applies scientific knowledge to develop new tools and systems. Science existed before technology and preceded the modern conception of it.
