Scientific Revolution: Scientific Method

Around the 1500, a lot of scholars believed that the ancient Greeks and Romans had great technology. They followed the exact methods of the ancient Greeks and Romans. The other way that they got scientific research and ideas was from the bible. It was a common theory that the sun and the planets revolve around the earth. Since, there is scientific revolution, we know that these facts aren't true.

An Italian man named Galileo invented the scientific method by getting to different sized stones and dropped them from the leaning tower of Pisa and then he noticed that they dropped at the same speed, this disproved Aristotle's theory. This then became excepted as the idea to base research on. These scientist's didn't just leave theories, they tested these theories to see if they were right. There was even a man named Isac Newton, and he tested Gravity and his theories still remain amongst our theories today.

There are four parts to the scientific method and they are, The first is Observing, the second is creating a Hypothesis, the third is Make prediction, the fourth is Testing the predictions. Observations are really good when it comes to finding out something to test. Creating a Hypothesis is easy because it is seeing what you want to accomplish when you are testing. The prediction is the outcome that you think will happen. The last one requires time and the materials to preform the test and see weather or not the prediction was true or was it different.
