      @golfwang, Firstly, what is science? It’s the practical activity of studying the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment. How does it work? Well, any science firstly involves a question that you want to answer…and then you plan and carry out an experiment to try and answer that question…that’s how science works!

      It is a very broad question to answer. There are things in science that I can explain but I am not omniscient that I can explain everything. If it was so cancer would have been eradicated years ago !!!!

      Wow, thats definitely not an easy question to answer. There are lots of different branches of science, like airplane engineers, people who study biology, people who make cars, doctors, so its really difficult to describe how the huge jigsaw of science works. Basically its about understanding the world around us and how we can improve the lives of other human from our observations
