Science is defined as the human attempt to understand the natural world through discovering facts and relationships to develop theories, while technology is defined as the human attempt to change the world by creating useful products using the findings of science. Science drives technology through scientific breakthroughs that enable new technologies, and technology drives science by allowing experiments that were not previously possible and shaping the questions scientists investigate based on available technologies. Examples of the interconnections between science and technology include engineers using scientific knowledge to develop products, some scientific experiments requiring enabling technologies to be possible, and technology not being able to advance without the underlying scientific discoveries.
The document discusses the scientific cycle and how it relates to understanding and addressing societal issues like reducing fossil fuel consumption. It explains that the scientific cycle involves making observations, analyzing data, developing hypotheses, testing hypotheses through experiments or models, and revising understanding based on results. Society can apply the scientific consensus on issues, like the role of human activity in climate change, to make informed decisions about steering a course of action, though scientists can only provide information, not make the decisions.

Origins of knowledge commons - open science in historical perspectiveprofessormadison
The document discusses studying the Republic of Letters, an early modern community of scholars, as a historical example of a knowledge commons. It explores how the Republic of Letters institutionalized open science between 1500-1700 by establishing learned societies and journals to share knowledge openly. However, it also involved practices of privacy and secrecy. The Republic of Letters balanced open sharing of propositional knowledge with protecting useful knowledge via secrecy or exclusivity. Studying it can provide insights into how open scientific systems evolved and the interplay between openness and privacy in knowledge governance commons.
Modern natural science is characterized by non-mechanistic and non-metaphysical approaches compared to classical science. Key aspects include ideas about the development of nature, different forms of matter motion, various structural levels of natural organization, and expanding views of causal relationships. Modern natural science also takes a systems approach to understanding nature as a whole, sees the world as hierarchical systems rather than studying objects in isolation, and recognizes that absolute truth is unattainable. It incorporates new theories from areas like relativity, quantum mechanics, and evolution that have emerged across natural science disciplines.
