Research on computational scientific discovery aims to develop computer systems which produce results that‚ if a scientist did the same‚ we would refer to as discoveries. Of course‚ if we hope to develop computational methods for scientific discovery‚ we must be more specific about the nature of such discoveries and how they relate to the broader context of the scientific enterprise. The term science refers both to scientific knowledge and the process of acquiring such knowledge. It involves any

100 Greatest Discovery Video Notes Summary The first discovery in chemistry‚ the discovery of oxygen by Joseph Priestley in the 1770s‚ started when scientists searched for “new air”” known as gas.

Astronomy: Discovery of Uranus by William Herschel in 1781 William Hershal was a telescope maker and with the invention of the telescope was the motivation that led to the discovery. Because the calculated orbit of Uranus did not compare accurately with the observed orbit‚ astronomers concluded that a disturbing influence was present. A study of this irregularity led to the discovery of Neptune in 1846. (Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia‚ 6th Edition. Q2 2016‚ p1-1. 1p.) At first it was thought

it actually makes fun of a number of the philosophies and demonstrates that the movement was far from being united. Candide reflects Voltaire’s exaggerated self-opinion on Church/Christianity‚ human suffering‚ and the effects/impacts of European discovery of the New World. In the book‚ events all slowly work at Candide’s optimistic up bringing by Pangloss (the apostle of optimism) until he no longer has faith in having a world where “all things are arranged for the best (Voltaire‚ 12)”.

brilliant minds of history didn’t believe this. They thought that light had no limits. That it was instantaneous. Until around three and half centuries ago‚ that though was challenged. It essentially began with Galileo’s discovery of the moons of Jupiter‚ more specifically the discovery of Io. He noticed the moons were quite periodic. It didn’t take long for astronomers to realize this was a fairly accurate way to keep time. It was known to great accuracy that Io orbited Jupiter every 42.5 hours. So
