The Scienctific Revolution.

What is Scienctific Revolution? Well most scholars got there knowledge about science from the Ancient Greeks, Romans and from the holy bible. At first we thought that the earth was the center of the universe and we believed that the sun and the other 8 planets revoled around the earth. In the 1500’s Galile went to the Leaning Tower of Pisa and dropped stones of different weights to the ground. He proved Aristotle wrong and discoverd that objects of different weights fall at the same speed. Isaac Newton explained the laws of gravity to make way for our modern way of understanding physics. Aristotle thought that one set of physical laws ruled earth and that another set took over the universe. Issac Newtown stated that a universal law of gravitation was put to use equally to earth and the heavens.
The scientific method is a process by which scientists construct an accurate answer or statement to prove a hypothesis. First you ask a question, do background research, construct a hypothesis, test it with an experiment, analyze results by drawing conclusions. Then you decide wheather the hypothesis is true or its false. If it's false or partially true you try the experiment again. The you report the results you came with to prove your hypothesis
