Science is hardly evident in Colonial America between 1607 to 1770 because it was mainly influenced by the British. Science is the study of the world's phenomena that can be discovered through observation and experiment. Two major scientific studies for the British included Astronomy and Cartography especially by the “England’s Royal Society”. This organization valued the contribution the colonialists made to their scientific discoveries and experiments because it gave them a different perspective

The Scientific Revolution and the Birth of Astronomy Many people today question the purpose of religion and, rather than warship the bible and adhere to papal infallibility, focus on coming up with new ideas, scientific approaches, and solutions to answer the infinite amount of questions life has to offer. Challenging the ideas found in tradition and religious faith is not a new concept invented by recent generations. In circa 1550 AD, one of the most dramatic social transformations ever faced

Sara Gutierrez De Piñeres Conclusions: Length vs. Period: By looking at the graph of Length vs. Period one can conclude that as the length gets longer the period will increase. When two pendulums have different lengths but the same amplitude, the shorter pendulum will have a smaller arc to travel through. Because the distance the mass travels from maximum displacement to equilibrium is less while the acceleration of both pendulums remains the same, the shorter pendulum will have a shorter period

Anders Celsius, a Swedish astronomer, founded the Celsius measurement for temperature. Celsius and his partner, Olof Hjorter, discovered a connection between the northern lights (aurora borealis) and the magnetic field coming from Earth. As they continued studying they soon found out that the northern lights effected the needle of a compass. In 1733 Celsius published his findings with the magnetic field. Although Celsius is known for being an astronomer he did accomplish many other things. He

the case of the Catholic Church vs. Galileo. This event brought on much commotion and stirred unrest within the church and its members. Galileo was an individual that was respected for being a talented astronomer and mathematician, although he was previously endorsed by the church his new findings opposed the old ideas of the church. It is true that science and religion have always had conflict with one another and overpowered the truth about the universe. Galileo found that the earth was in fact not

The specific heresy that Galileo was condemned with was vehement suspicion of heresy, not the worst kind to be sure, but still moderately heretical. The main difference between these types of heresy is that for formal heresy the subject must realize they are committing heresy, and still cling to their beliefs, where suspected heresy (also known as material heresy) has people in ignorance committing one heresy or another . This fact is important when determining if Galileo was in fact a heretic, because

Life of Galileo- from the perspective of Science, Technology and Society The intertwining of Science and society complies with the double-helical DNA structure which defines the complexity and simplicity of the relation between them. Where scientific discoveries set the path for paradigm shifts and drastic changes in which the society functions, they also raise questions to the existing norms of the society during the inception of these theories. The centuries-long debate of Science being the
