How Science Gets Done

Questioning existing scientific beliefs, forming new hypotheses, conducting experiments, analyzing the results, writing papers, subjecting them to peer review, and, if everything suggests that the findings are correct, publishing the new theory broadly….all of this is the way scientists do science.

Important note:  This has nothing whatsoever to do with having auto mechanics, bus drivers, and real estate agents Google a certain scientific topic and come to their own conclusions.
