Scientific Revolution: The Scientific Method

The scientific method is, in short, a way to inquire about something and to determine whether or not the question has a solution. First we must think of what we want an answer to. then we form up a theory or a hypothesis. Then we conduct the experiment, recording down the result as the experiment is taking place. After the experiment, we observe the results and form a conclusion to whether or not we have solved the inquiry.
For example, if i wanted to see how fast an animal walks, i would ask my self something like, "If I were to look at an animal walk, How long would it take him to go to the mall." Then I would observe the animal until it reached the mall. Doing stuff like keeping time of the animal, and keeping track of the speed of the animal.
