Have fun with that, Nagy! I'm still working through all the recipes in the new Korean cookbook I got for Christmas, 101 Ways to Wok Your Dog. The folks at the shelter are starting to suspect something, though...

What are difference between Technology and Science? Technology is a child of Science or both have no relationship.
|
|
|
|
|
Technology is the application of scientific learning married with engineering and mathematics.
Science is a pure, reasoned approach to acquiring and processing data into information in a logical and methodical manner.

What is the difference between an apple and a low orbit satellite? Same kind of question.
Science is a type of rigorous study. Ideas taken through to proof.
Technology is, at best, the application of the proof into a usable form.

0. You can't eat a low orbit satellite.

You know, Isaac, I cannot eat the apple as well.

I dunno, an albatross is technically a low orbit satellite.
Although I wouldn't want to eat one.
Sea birds are virtually inedible, (Procellariiformes have salt ejecting tubenoses and thus a high saline tolerance, yuck!)

instructions for cooking an albatros

What about an apple that has been put into low Earth orbit?

That is called a satellite.

QED: you can, potentially, eat a low-earth orbiting satellite.

If you throw an apple hard enough, it will go into low orbit and not come back down.
This is the application (apple) of science (orbital mechanics)
Of course, it helps to remove the atmosphere first, and try it somewhere with lower gravity.

I don't know how he is able to manage that, but, as matter of fact, any time I pass an apple to my brother, it will never comes back...

Hmm...
Most science is about disproving a theory or providing a best guess framework which works with current data.
There is not much Proof in science, mainly theory and supposition and a lot of thinking why the experiment did not produce the expected result.
The great truth about scientists is they start from the basis of "I Don't Know" and usually end with "I think it may be the case that..."
Unlike religion which starts with "This is the unadulterated truth and we are right and you will burn in eternal hellfire and damnation if you even begin to think contrary to what was written in this book by bronze age peasants" and ends with "Let's Kill People!".

On one of the Dave Allen programmes over the weekend it mentioned a conversation between an atheist & a man of the cloth.
MOC - You are rather like a blind man in a darkened room searching for a black cat that isn't there.
A - In a way, we are both like a blind man in a darkened room searching for a black cat that isn't there - except you have found it.
