Define 'science'. Don't look it up online....from your own brain, define it. [I Love Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream]

There is no "thing" called "science". Not like you can say a pork-chop is sitting on a plate.

"Science" is a method. A method of inquiry.

The scientific method of observing the world. Making a hypothesis on the basis of those observations. And then designing an experiment to attempt to falsify that hypothesis. Then one has a theory of how the world works. At least for a moment.

Repeating that until one can make more refined observations and hypotheses. And more experiments. To make more robust theories of how the world works. Theories that are more predictive, that fail less in special circumstances.

But it's just a method.

There are other methods.

The study of natural phenomena through observable facts and the rigorous application of experimentation, testing, logic, hypothesis, and conclusion.

It’s a methodology for acquisition of certain types of knowledge, rooted in empiricism. It doesn’t offer any guarantees, and is always in progress.

It’s also the only real game in town.

The methodology of observation, formulation of a hypothesis, experimentation and revision of the original hypothesis if nessasary.

The study of the world around us to learn why it does what it does and how we can use what we've learned in our own creations, technology so that we too can one day become gods and overlord of the universe.

The documented study of natural accurring sircumstances of the subject matter being observed in closed spectrum leads to a specified field of more'ons of a singular subject of the matter observed.

Science is the advancement of knowledge by observation, hypothesis and attempts to disprove the hypothesis. If no one can disprove it or come up with something better, it stands as the best hypothesis.

I believe it was a man named Bacon who defined the scientific method.

Science is the study of things...most commonly physical, environmental, and mathematical events and activities, initially based on theories that then must be investigated and proven true or false.

Science is a means of understanding the world through experimentation and observation, as opposed to understanding the world through tradition and revelation.

Do you know what is quantum physics?

Etymologically, the word just means "With knowledge". To me, science is a method. Originating from Al Haytham, modified by Francis Bacon, and used to uncover truth.

an attempt to put a methodology to study and understand a topic or group of topics

natural world and stuff

A great deal of scientists don't say "fairy tales". In fact, I'll bet most who do aren't even professional scientists.

Science is the process of applying the scientific method to find things out.
