Why Science
Discoveries made by scientists have changed our world. We have a deep understanding of how the natural world works. We know that the physical world evolved from the Big Bang 14 billion years ago, how our planet evolved from stellar debris and how modern humans diverged from other hominins in the last 200,000 years.
