Science is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge
in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the
universe. In an older and closely related meaning, "science" refers to
the body of reliable knowledge itself, of the type that can be
logically and rationally explained since classical antiquity science
as a type of knowledge was closely linked to philosophy. In the early
modern era the words "science" and "philosophy" were sometimes used
interchangeably in the English language. By the 17th century, natural
philosophy was considered a separate branch of philosophy. However,
"science" continued to be used in a broad sense denoting reliable
knowledge about a topic, in the same way it is still used in modern
terms such as library science or political science.
