Imagination is as vital to any advance in science as learning and precision are essential for starting points.
Quantum physics tells us that nothing that is observed is unaffected by the observer. That statement, from science, holds an enormous and powerful insight. It means that everyone sees a different truth, because everyone is creating what they see.
Atlantis was a highly evolved civilization where the sciences and arts were far more advanced than one might guess. Atlantis was technologically advanced in genetic engineering, computer science, inter-dimensional physics, and artistically developed with electronic music and crystal art forms.
It is characteristic of science that the full explanations are often seized in their essence by the percipient scientist long in advance of any possible proof.
The world has changed far more in the past 100 years than in any other century in history.

Clearly, no scientist better represents those advances than Albert Einstein: TIME's Person of the Century.
What is now proved was once only imagined.
Science enhances the moral value of life, because it furthers a love of truth and reverence-love of truth displaying itself in the constant endeavor to arrive at a more exact knowledge of the world of mind and matter around us, and reverence, because every advance in knowledge brings us face to face with the mystery of our own being.

Advances in medicine and agriculture have saved vastly more lives than have been lost in all the wars in history.
Science is the best idea humans have ever had. The more people who embrace that idea, the better.
My worry is that other advances in science may result in other means of mass destruction, maybe more readily available even than nuclear weapons. Genetic engineering is quite a possible area, because of these dreadful developments that are taking place there.

In physiology, as in all other sciences, no discovery is useless, no curiosity misplaced or too ambitious, and we may be certain that every advance achieved in the quest of pure knowledge will sooner or later play its part in the service of man.
Measuring and laying out the room in advance can save you a lot of headaches.
It would be interesting to inquire how many times essential advances in science have first been made possible by the fact that the boundaries of special disciplines were not respected... Trespassing is one of the most successful techniques in science.
Genetic engineering is a result of science advancement, so I don't think that in itself is bad.
In these days when science is clearly in the saddle and when our knowledge of disease is advancing at a breathless pace, we are apt to forget that not all can ride and that he also serves who waits and who applies what the horseman discovers.
All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
Language is the principal tool with which we communicate;
but when words are used carelessly or mistakenly, what was intended to advance mutual understanding may in fact hinder it; our instrument becomes our burden

By learning from science about aspects of reality where its understanding may be more advanced, I believe that Buddhism enriches its own worldview.
Advances in science and medical research and public health policies have meant that life expectancy for Australians is one of the highest in the world.
Advances in technology will continue to reach far into every sector of our economy. Future job and economic growth in industry, defense, transportation, agriculture, health care, and life sciences is directly related to scientific advancement.
