i have know idea what the answer is!! i have looked it up in books and i have found nothing!!

What kind of technology are you referring to? Scientists rely heavily on technology to be able to investigate and justify their hypotheses. We can use it to make images or slides more resolute with microscopes, we can observe the structure of compounds using various spectroscopic tools (such as NMR machines, etc), there's the LHC and all of the machines that we use for medical diagnostics.

Scientific discovery includes new ways of doing scientific inquiry, and part of that turns into new technology. It allows for more precise and accurate results, which allows the cycle to continue. It almost always helps when the technology has some kind of a commercial application, because that drives the price down and makes the technology more widely available.

Technology is extremely important to science...technology allows more accurate, easier and more efficient methods to do science! And with these improved methods to do science, new technology is often invented. This new technology then speeds up the scientific process, which then leads to more technological discoveries and so on and so on...

 

So yes, technology is incredabley important to science!

I would like to look at things the other way round. Technology has provided me with a work environment as I have been involved with cutting edge technology in one way or another for the whole of a working life. I am quite an ordinary person and there are countless others like me. Just about everything I have been involved with started out as an idea in the head of a scientist or was developed by a team of scientists.

I agree with you that the description is quite an ordinary person and there are countless others like me. Just about everything I have been involved with started out as an idea in the head of a scientist or was developed by a team of scientists.
