		Mathematics, while not a science, is closely allied to the sciences because of their extensive use of it.
		The physical sciences include physics, chemistry, and astronomy; the earth sciences (sometimes considered a part of the physical sciences) include geology, paleontology, oceanography, and meteorology; and the life sciences include all the branches of biology such as botany, zoology, genetics, and medicine.
		Science, in the modern sense of the term, came into being in the 16th and 17th cent., with the merging of the craft tradition with scientific theory and the evolution of the scientific method.

	Promise of Science: Space Travel
		Leaving the planet Earth is one of the first motifs to appear in science fiction film -- in fact, the first film to be labelled science fiction is about travelling from the Earth to the Moon.
		Although the enabling technology for manned space flight was not developed and put to use until 1961, science fiction film was actively visualizing space travel from its very beginnings.
		In Voyage dans la Lune (1902, France), a group of adventurers build a great space gun and are shot to the moon in a hard-cased shell that strongly resembles a rocket.

	The Soft Science of Dietary Fat - Second Opinions
		So the task before the project officer was merely to gather that science together in one volume, have it reviewed by a committee of experts, which had been promptly established, and publish it.
		Indeed, the history of the national conviction that dietary fat is deadly, and its evolution from hypothesis to dogma, is one in which politicians, bureaucrats, the media, and the public have played as large a role as the scientists and the science.
		He told Science that most researchers and journalists in the field are prisoners of the "cholesterol paradigm." Although dietary fat and serum cholesterol "are obviously connected," he says, "the connection is not a robust one" when it comes to heart disease.

	CLOSEMINDED SCIENCE: Booklist
		"Science begins by chance and caprice, at the frontier, with hardly a shadow of the scientific method in evidence; and then it proceeds to be sieved, tested, and modified until it appears in the textbooks, whose tried and refined content can be explained so simply (albiet fallaciously) as resulting from application of the [scientific] method."
