SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
1.In recent years, scientific and technological developments have drastically changed life on our planet as

well as our views both of ourselves as individuals in society and of entire Universe as a whole.

2.Today, science and technology are closely related. Many modern technologies such as nuclear power and

space flights depend on science and the application of scientific knowledge and principles. Each advance in pure

science creates new opportunities for the development of new ways of making things to be used in daily life. In

turn, technology provides science with new and more accurate instruments for its investigation and research.

3.Technology refers to the ways in which people use discoveries to satisfy needs and desires, to alter the

environment, to improve their lives. Throughout human history, men and women have invented tools, machines,

materials and techniques, to make their lives easier.

4.Of course, when we speak of technology today, we are looking at it in a much narrower sense. Generally,

we mean industrial technology, or the technology that began about 200 years ago with the development of power-

driven machines, growth of the factory system, and mass production of goods that has created the basis for our

modern society. Today we often say that we live in an age of science and technology. According to one estimate,

90 % of all the scientists who ever lived, were alive and active in the 1970-s. This increased scientific activity has

brought new ideas, processes, and inventions in ever-growing amount.

5.The scientific revolution that began in the 16th century was the first time that science and technology

began to work together. Thus, Galileo, who made revolutionary discoveries in astronomy and physics, also built an

improved telescope and patented a system of lifting water. However, it was not until the 19th century that

technology truly was based on science and inventors began to build on the work of scientists. For example, Thomas

Edison built on the early experiments of Faraday and Henry in his invention of the first practical system of

electrical lighting. So too, Edison carried on his investigations until he found the carbon filament for the electric

bulb in a research laboratory. This was the first true modern technological research.

6.In a sense, the history of science and technology is the history of all humankind.
