When tropical storm Jeanne hit Haiti and the Dominican Republic in September 2004, over 20 inches of rainfall occurred in 24 hours–more than a third of the rain that typically falls during an entire year. Forestry practices in these two tropical countries have been quite different. While the Dominican Republic's forests remain largely intact, most of Haiti's forests had been removed by 1990 as the rapidly growing population became increasingly dependent on subsistence farming in mountainous regions of the island. Tropical storm Jeanne created a national disaster for Haiti with over 3000 lives lost, but the Dominican Republic experienced very short-lived effects and only 18 deaths.
How is the following paragraph consistent with the nature of science? This is an excerpt from the NASA NEO website. "As is often the case, the possibility of future Earth impacts for some near-Earth objects cannot be entirely ruled out until the uncertainties associated with their trajectories are reduced as a result of either future position observations, or in this case, heretofore unrecognized, pre-discovery observations. When these additional observations were used to update the orbit of 2004 MN4, the uncertainties associated with this object's future positions in space were reduced to such an extent that none of the object's possible trajectories can impact the Earth (or Moon) in 2029."
A. Science is tentative. B. Science relies on empirical observations. C. Science is limited by technology. D. All of the choices are correct. E. None of the choices are correct.
