Observation

Definition of Observation as it relates to Science, Space Science, Experimentation

Observation is the process of systematically acquiring data through all senses, especially sight and hearing, to establish facts and reach new conclusions. In this context, under Experimentation in Space Science, it refers to the act of studying celestial objects and phenomena by observing them from Earth or from spacecraft. This can include tracking the movement of planets and stars, analyzing light patterns from distant galaxies, or monitoring changes in atmospheric conditions on other planets. Observations made through experiments help scientists understand the universe better and test their theories about its workings.
