There does not exist a category of science to which one can give the name applied science. There are science and the applications of science, bound together as the fruit of the tree which bears it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There are no such things as applied sciences, only applications of science.
If there is no fundamental science then there is no basis for applied science. We have to strike a balance. 23 years ago the World Wide Web was born here. It has changed the world dramatically.
Science is a perception of the world around us. Science is a place where what you find in nature pleases you.
The most obvious characteristic of science is its application: the fact that, as a consequence of science, one has a power to do things. And the effect this power has had need hardly be mentioned. The whole industrial revolution would almost have been impossible without the development of science.
Science is an enterprise that should be cherished as an activity of the free human mind. Because it transforms who we are, how we live, and it gives us an understanding of our place in the universe.
As history has shown, pure science research ultimately ends up applying to something. We just don't know it at the time.
The 'science' in 'science fiction' isn't just physics and engineering. It can also be linguistics, anthropology, and psychology.
Science - or the products of science like technology - is just a way of achieving something real, something that happens, something that works.
Science is knowledge arranged and classified according to truth, facts, and the general laws of nature.
Science is not a thing. It's a verb. It's a way of thinking about things. It's a way of looking for natural explanations for all phenomena.
