The branches of science

Today, there are so many of the most interesting problems in science, I think It’s interesting to learn about science deeper, because today, knowledge and understanding of the world is more sophisticated and complicated that no one could possibly be at the border in such a wide variety of fields. So scientists work at many different tasks.

We’ve known the meaning of science. So, we’ve gotta know that science divided into several branches which are distinguished by the view and content of the questions. Several branches of science are Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geology, and Astronomy. All of sciences are interconnected in a natural world.

The first is physics, which describes the most basic of nature, such as light, energy, forces, heat and other phenomena. Physic is the beginning detail for almost any study of how nature works.
The second is chemistry, the study about mixture of atoms. You know that chemicals form every material object in the world, chemical reaction initiative vital changes in our environment and our body.
Biology is the study of living systems. Geology is to learn about the origin, evolution, and present of our home, planet earth. The study of other planets is a way to understand the unique character of our world. And Astronomy is to learn about stars, planets, and other objects in space.

science

have you ever wondered why the sun rises at exactly in the East and sets in the West every day?
the question and answer called science

So, what's science??

Ancient humans and many other predictable appearance of nature took note about natural world like every day the sun rises at a precisely foreseeable time in the East and every day the sun sets in the West, and also too the phases of the moon and the season every year.and they spotted their lives and culture appropriately. And we call the process science.

According to the book I read science is a way of knowing, a way of asking and answering questions about the physical universe.

Science gives us "our most powerful tool to understand" how our wold works and how we interact with physical surrounding. And I think it's impressive to studying science :)
