When we contemplate the scenes that mark and accompany our lives , we do so from a particular point of view and always subject to a small touch of subjectivity. What, on the surface, is an everyday or normalized trait for the human being, can become something really amazing if we dig a little deeper.
Science is defined as the set of knowledge obtained through observation and reasoning , systematically structured and from which general principles and laws with predictive and experimentally verifiable capacity are deduced.
Precisely, this systematic observation is also a creator of art and immortalizes the most unique images of our day to day , without hardly realizing it. The look of science is much more exciting than it is believed, and it has become one more way of being able to observe the world, although in a different way from how we know it.
The versatility in the scale of vision of science allows, on the one hand, that we know the inadvertent microscopic universe. In this, there is a whole new world for humans with invisible creatures that coexist with each of us and closer than is believed. And for example, on the other hand, science also allows us to travel distances that very few have been able to and contemplate the gigantic and chilling outer space.
So what images can science capture as opposed to the human gaze? Worms from hell , imposing solar eclipses , flashes and fireworks in absolute detail … Nothing goes unnoticed by the analytical eye of knowledge.
The year 2017 closes its doors with a long list of important events and incredible images. Social, political, cultural and natural factors draw the mark and signature of this year.
From a scientific point of view, the year 2017 has brought very relevant events, such as space flights , really beautiful natural phenomena, others unfortunately with a more catastrophic character, innovations in technology and health, and extraordinary knowledge about the most remote past of the species , including ours.
Next, we leave you the most striking plans of science and the natural world briefly compiled in the best scientific photographs, according to the journal Nature. Don’t miss a detail!
