The practice of science: In what ways does the modern practice of science establish positive feedback (see table 3.2 ) to encourage further discoveries?
Can you identify elements of the historical accounts of Copernicus, Tycho, Kepler, and Galileo that provide an example of positive feedback?
May vary. Example responses include: publication of results boosts interest in exploration; publication of processes allows others to easily build upon discoveries; Copernicus' theory would suggests new observations to carry out (e.g. look for Venus' phases)
