About This Quote
The scientific method is nothing more than a system of rules to keep us from lying to each other. The method is a way of learning, especially when it comes to science. The scientific method uses observation, research, experimentation and criticism in order to make the best possible explanation for observations. It seeks out the truth and works toward a goal or understanding of how something works or why something exists. In addition, the scientific method includes the idea that experiments must be repeated with multiple people so that results can be verified and assumptions can be tested.
