It couldn't be more wrong than
this. We have been lied to about the nature of reality. In the schools, we
learn that Sun is a star and all planets orbit around the earth in nice orbits
and the sun is in the middle. Look at picture of solar system. This is
completely wrong. THIS
IS NOT SPACE SCIENCE AT ALL.
In the last decade, scientists have
learnt that our sun moves around the milkyway galaxy at a speed of more than
220 km/sec or 828,000 km/hr and the entire milky way galaxy moves through space
at 630 km/sec according to latest science calculations. We do not know exact
figures yet. Everything moves in the universe.
There's
No Such Thing As Proof or Absolute Fact in The Scientific World - There's Only Evidence. As
we gather more evidence through scientific methodology, our perceptions change. Gravity may not exist. Is
gravity real? May be the gravity is the effect of
another universe with anti-matter. How
do we know there are only 8 planets? There might be a planet with extreme elongated orbit which astronomers haven't
discovered yet. Most of the current text books in the world teach science as
some merely facts. All science is merely the current best model and there
are no absolute facts in science. Science is impermanent. It is, by definition,
in constant flux. It is the greatest thing humans have ever discovered.
Science is not a body of knowledge
or facts, it is a way of thinking. So why do we teach it as a subject when it
is not merely a subject. Teaching the history of scientific thinking and
philosophy is of science should be started in middle school rather than at Ph.D
stage.
IF AT
ALL I AM LEARNING ANYTHING, I
WANT TO KNOW WHAT I AM
LEARNING FIRST.
Time
to rewrite textbooks?
