Scientific thinking : 

Scientific thinking The majority of scientists who have created these innovations have used the scientific method in their way of thinking . They used empirical, quantitative, repeatable, and unbiased data to develop their discoveries. And as scientists have been always subjected to falsifiability. An example would be the computers, if they were not always being tested, then they wouldn’t always be improving. The human genome project was also another great issue that heavily depended on scientific thinking because they were subjected to a lot of criticism.

Globalizing information is the most important scientific discovery : 

Globalizing information is the most important scientific discovery Globalizing information is the most important scientific discovery because it is one of the main reasons man is so sophisticated today. It is the reason why man is so knowledgeable, if the printing press was not invented we wouldn’t have had all the books that recorded people ideas, beliefs and inventions. If we didn’t have computers and internet we wouldn’t be able to call people in the states within 5 minutes. More importantly we wouldn’t have had ‘instant’ access to knowledge all the time.
