About This Quote

People have a tendency to forget how much science is based on faith. In the end, it’s all about belief. The scientific method does not provide a formula for something that can be proven scientifically. In fact, there are many theories that have been proven wrong.

There is science and then there is science fiction. The difference lies in the fact that fiction is based on a story, a myth or a legend, whereas, science is based on a theory or a hypothesis. The term “scientific” comes from the Latin word “scientificus,” meaning observation and research.
