About This Quote
The scientific definition of theory is quite different from the everyday meaning of the word. This definition includes an important feature: a theory is a comprehensive explanation of some aspect of nature that is supported by a vast body of evidence. A scientific theory is not like an ordinary definition, such as "a theory is an explanation that holds true for all cases." A scientific theory does not contain only things that are proven true; it also contains those things which will be proven true in the future.
