Modern science began when a British experimenter called Michael Faraday (1791 - 1867) started finding things out for himself.

Since that time, science 'as we know it' has affected in a big way how you live and what you do every day.

Science is to do with the study of the smallest things and the largest things.

The picture opposite shows a tiny paramecium cell viewed through a microscope.
