Science is a systematic approach to understanding the natural world through observation, experimentation, and evidence-based reasoning. It encompasses a broad range of disciplines—from physics and biology to astronomy and the social sciences—each aimed at uncovering patterns, laws, and underlying mechanisms that govern the universe.

Whether probing the smallest subatomic particles or mapping the vastness of space, science is both a method and a collaborative human endeavor, continually reshaping our understanding of reality.
