Science and Technology

খুব কাছে থেকে দেখা পিঁপড়ার মুখ। ২০২২ সালে নাইকনের স্মল ওয়ার্ল্ড ফটোমাইক্রোগ্রাফি কম্পিটিশনে লিথুয়ানিয়ার ফটোগ্রাফার ইউজেনিজাস কাভালিয়স্কাসের তোলা এই ছবি 'ইমেজ অব ডিস্টিংশন' সম্মাননা লাভ করে, ভাইরাল হয় গোটা বিশ্বেই।

Science as a source of engineering
Most of the technical knowledge used in the designing and development of tools and techniques is actually an outcome of ‘engineering science’.

Contribution of Science to Technology
Let us now understand how Science has contributed to Technology −

Science as a direct source of new technological ideas
For example, innovation and development medical instruments; nuclear technology, radar system, etc.

What is Science?
Science fundamentally is the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the natural and physical world through observations and experiments.

Study of science evolved with the civilization of human beings.

What is Technology?
Technology (which is basically derived from the Greek word ‘technologia’) is an art, skill or ability, which is used to create and develop products and acquire knowledge.

Scientists used their knowledge to develop technology and then used technology to develop Science; so, because of this reason science and technology are an integrated term in today’s world.

Consider the following points to understand the relationship between Science and Technology −

The evolution of science is like a boon to the world, as human beings come to know a lot about the world they are living in including the activities they indulge into. Furthermore, the development of technology along with the advancement in Science helps to bring in a revolution in various fields such as medicine, agriculture, education, information and technology, and many more.

Evolution of Science
In the present world, if we think of any sort of development, then the presence of science and technology cannot be ignored.
