Why Science?

1. Science is listed as a "noun" but we prefer to approach it as a "verb" - as in "let's do science".

2. Science is the accumulation of knowledge regarding patterns in nature. This knowledge comes from repeated observations and testing.

3. Science is the creative, yet systematic and logical, approach to solving problems.
