Scientific Revolution: The Scientific Method

During the 1500's people mostly thought what Greeks believed was true. They thought the earth was the center of the universe and it revolved around us; but to the scientific proved that wrong. Scientist did experiments to prove their point such as Galileo who proved that all stones of different weights fell down at the same speed. The scientific method is based on looking at something, then you make a prediction of what could happen and then experiment on that idea a few times to prove the answer.

When these theories did not explain why something happened they had to make new theories, but this did not mean they were wrong but it could not explain all the data of the certain time. But when experiments are proven  then later there is some incompletion with the theory. For example when Newton's theory of gravity the experiments showed he was right. Then after more technology was made and Einstein proved those experiments with some errors.
