New Horizons Have you ever heard of the horizon problem? Ultra-energetic rays? Maybe even dark matter? These are just a few of the unexplainable modern scientific anomalies we desperately want to understand. You could call them the great mysteries of the universe. Almost a decade ago‚ these mysterious were yet to even be discovered‚ but our lust for the unknown fueled our search to answer the many questions of nature; leading us to many profound discoveries. As with all discoveries there is new

Barry presents rhetorical strategies as a means to characterize scientific research. He thinks that being a “scientist requires not only intelligence and curiosity‚ but passion‚ patience‚ creativity‚ self-sufficiency‚ and courage.” Scientific research can be courageous and dangerous. In science‚ people tend to doubt scientists because their discoveries it seems unreal. Even scientists such as Einstein probably doubted his own theory until his predictions were tested. Barry starts his piece of writing

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
