What is science? Answer it from a philosophical point of view.

Philosophy is a higher level of wisdom than science. If we want to look at science from the perspective of philosophy, then science is like the executor of philosophy, applying the universal laws of philosophy to concrete science. Aristotle said that physics is (it should be said that this is an earlier scientific discipline) a discipline that studies the form and content of existence, while philosophy is above physics. In other words, science is to summarize the phenomena people see in the universe and study some specific objective laws in the phenomena. Philosophy is to summarize people's understanding of the world in scientific research, including the summary of practical methods in scientific research. When people can't solve problems with science, people will turn to philosophy. Personally, I think Newton's Hand of God is more classic. You can have a look if you are interested. In a word, science is a practical movement under the guidance of philosophy, and the new knowledge generated in science promotes the progress of philosophy. That's what science is.
