16 Creators Who Snuck Heady References Into Their Work

New discoveries are constantly being made in the field of scientific research. With each new finding, our understanding of the universe grows a little bit more. The findings of scientific research can be divided into two main categories: theoretical and applied. Theoretical findings are those that help us to understand the underlying principles of a particular phenomenon. Applied findings are those that have a direct practical application. For example, a theoretical discovery might be that electromagnetic waves are responsible for the transmission of light. An applied discovery might be the development of a new medical treatment for cancer. No matter what form they take, the findings of scientific research help us to better understand our world and find new ways to improve our lives.

New scientific discoveries are made every day. In fact, the rate of scientific discovery is accelerating. This is thanks to advances in technology that allow researchers to gather more data more quickly. Additionally, research teams are growing larger and more international, which helps to spread ideas and promote collaboration.
