For a variety of reasons they're dangerous, but we feel that OOl, this Ocean Observatory Initiative, which the National Science Foundation has begun to fund, has the potential to really transform things.

See, back in the 1880s, 1890s, many scientists, many observers,

I'd go further I would fear science in general, if properly understood.

Here's how it went.

Reality is reality, and there can only be one, and it is best defined by scientific observation.

Science rests upon observation.

Girls hate bugs, love hugs, and are better at vacuuming rugs.

From a strictly scientific point of view, history cannot be called a science.

Is there anything else you want me to look at?

Observer

Devices like the cymascope, which you can see here, have been used to scientifically observe cymatic patterns.

Observation is a passive science, experimentation an active science.

I want to contrast that now. With, observational studies.

And so we can look at a bunch of different variables.

And as you come around the banks in these valleys, the forces can get up to two Gs.

Why did you beat the pavement?

A few decades ago, many scientists believed that this could actually be possible.

Science is based on careful observation.

To think a little more deeply about things.

We investigate claims of the paranormal, pseudo science, fringe groups and cults, and claims of all kinds between, science and pseudo science and non science and junk science, voodoo science, pathological science, bad science, non science, and plain old non sense.

But there's a subtler benefit to the digitization of the world.

Just for the fun of it, let me ask you a quiz that links back to the very first class.

This one was very unexpected because, you know,

There's also a measurement update step where we use the measurement z.

You update again based on the measurement 6, you get your estimate of 5.99, which is almost 6.

Science is based on very careful observations.

logical, universal, factual, scientific.

So next, the scientific method an axiom of physics, of all science says you cannot prove a hypothesis through observation, you can only disprove it.

And it's very important to realize that, because oftentimes when you are deep in the mathematics, economics might seem to be a science, like physics, but it's not a science like physics.
