Goal of Science: Seek reality or truth (knowledge)
Science is the pursuit of truth, of explanation, prediction, and control a phenomenon.
Truth obtained from the scientific method contains both logic and evidence that are consistent with each other.
Science cannot settle debate about values (good or bad, right or wrong, . stem cell research)- objectivity
Science is about the creation of knowledge, not the application of knowledge
Autonomy of inquiry – pursuit of science is not accountable to anyone but the munity.
