Approximating the Universe



Science is a search for the truth. We have found no scientific truths
There are no facts. We can only approximate. Thus physics is the science
of "approximations" Don't get me wrong we can make very good
approximation. Good example is the "three body problem" has never been
solved. In QM approximate calculations is the best we
can hope for. Go get the best math nuclear physicist working with
particles to preform an exact calculation on any one of the actions
taking place,and he will tell you it can't be done. He will add the best
hope is to get an approximation that will give a result that fits well
with the experiment. To sum my thoughts up "Scientific Theories
are Approximations" Bert
