It is often observed that spring is the most delightful of seasons, but this is a hard sell since our appreciation should really lie under the harvest moon. Just as Mother Nature requires the rest of winter and the ripening of autumn for the budding of spring, science requires practical applications upon which to build pure theories. Through its application, science more truthfully reveals its mysteries. There is no need to wait anxiously to see the results of science as they are upon us. In physics, the advent of electricity was rewarded with the development of an incandescent light bulb. The theoretical understanding of electricity was able to transform electricity from a flash into a utility and sparked further curiosity about magnetism. This application of pure scientific theory is simply another side of science. Just as a mathematician can integrate his understanding of geometry or algebra with their applications in architecture or economics, a physicist can nourish his understanding of the world in the application of theoretical principles. An entirely theoretical explanation of nature cannot suffice as science. . Just as a clock cannot be explained with all its gears unless it is set in motion, nature cannot be fully understood unless the theories of its functioning are put into practice. To illustrate this point, just look to the past to describe the mechanics of the cosmos. It was once naively thought that the Earth was the center of the Universe and that each object orbited according to a particular path (epicycles). When Kepler looked through a newly built telescope at the orbits of the newly discovered planets and deduced that all planets revolve around the sun... it requires experimentation. This experimentation involves the application of chemical theories. In its application, a researcher can see the theories of pure science explored in their entirety, but can also find new uses for their products. It is evident that pure science is the foundation of the theories on which science is built, but the application of these theories allows for a more concise understanding of science. The application of science is not only a benefit to society by allowing many luxuries and making life less burdensome, but it also helps advance science itself. Where an experiment may be able to isolate a specific variable of interest and test it, a comprehensive application provides a complete understanding of the dynamics present in a conglomerate of intertwined forces and theories that is nature.
