  Definitely. Without the process of science we wouldn’t have been able to make all the advances we have in things like, medicine and technology! I can only imagine the amazing things we will do in the future with science 🙂

  Absolutely – without science we wouldn’t have most of the things we take for granted today, such as electricity, and even fire at a basic level. All the advances we have made help us to live longer, healthier lives and as that knowledge gets passed onto the next generation we can move forward even faster, and do even more amazing things.
