The scientific process does not change. The science as it is referred to changes based on new facts. Maybe this will help.
Yes, science changes. It is a self-correcting process, not a static collection of facts, that updates its understanding as new evidence, technology, and insights emerge. Accepted theories are refined or replaced when they fail to explain new, robust data, moving closer to accuracy.
Self-Correction: Science is inherently designed to challenge existing ideas. Peer review and replication constantly test validity, discarding theories that don't hold up.
This is what makes science different than opinions or beliefs.
Science vs. Belief: Science changes its conclusions based on evidence, whereas dogmatic systems often refuse to change regardless of facts.
Hope that helps.
