Science is exciting partly because single discoveries can change the course of history.
Unfortunately, however, most of the revolutionary discoveries made throughout history have turned out to be wrong. Error is a regular part of science. That is why reports of new findings or discoveries, no matter where or how widely they are reported, should be regarded with healthy skepticism. The proper scientific approach to such claims involves a set of procedures called the scientific method. This method requires the design of tests or experiments that can be repeated with the same results by anyone.
