The importance of Running Experiments.
Science is simple. Sure, some of it—particle accelerators, astrophysics, photon torpedoes—can be a little tricky. But the scientific method itself is straight forward:
1. OBSERVE what’s going on.
2. GUESS why things are happening the way they
are.
3. EXPERIMENT to test your hypothesis.
4. MEASURE the results and decide whether you were
right.
That’s pretty much it. The scientific know-how behind everything from WD-40 to the Hubble space telescope all came from following those four steps.”
