    *A Theory* is an proposition that explains a phenomenon is

    experimentally sound and has no evidential or experimental

    evidence to dispute it, but which is nonetheless not proven

    and therefore is still open to question.

    ---

    *A law* in science is a phenomena that has been proven a fact.

    The obvious example is the law of gravity. Drop a banana and

    it hits the ground. Gravity proven!

    ---

    In fact with examples like the Theory of evolution and rela-

    tivity there is little doubt that they are sound. Even so

    there is room for doubt in that they have not been proved

    conclusively., so remain Theories.

    i respectfully disagree. a theory is never upgraded into a law.

    a theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that can incorporate facts, laws, inferences, and tested hypotheses. a law is a descriptive generalization about how some aspect of the natural world behaves under stated circumstances.

    there is the fact of evolution, and the theory of evolution by natural selection which explains how evolution works. there is the fact of gravity, and the theory of gravity which explains how gravity works.

    It did not upgraded, there is only misinterpretation on your part

    ----

    Up until about 1900 a theory was a hypothesis or speculation and a

    law was an observed regularity presumed to have been nature decr-

    eeded sometime around 1900 scientific law went completely out of

    fashion and new discoveries started getting called all sorts of other

    names. Somewhere around the same time, "theory" became a much

    more neutral term for any logically organized explanation in terms of

    clear axioms. This was probably due to a bunch of different influences

    including the crash and burn of the Judeo-Christian creation myth, the

    advent of many large successful theories like electromagnetism and

    evolution some influence from German *Theorie*, etc.

    ----

    In the context of science theory is a complex web of hypothesis

    principles and laws that are well founded on empirical observations

    and on experiment. A Law might be just one element of a Theory

    For example Newton's Law of Gravitation provided one force to which

    he could apply his three laws of motion. They were all part of his

    theory of matter and motion.

    please explain what happens to a theory after it has been "proven" :

    the statement "remain Theories" seems to imply some sort of change.

    No, i was just pointing out those doubters who until

    now they are continue to exist unwilling and hesitant

    to admit the proven facts, Para nila nagpabilin giha-

    pong theory, deli sila kadawat.

    Best known example the "The flat earthers Society".

    i understand. it's just that the way you presented it was a bit confusing. the statement "remain Theories" does imply some sort of change. no harm done, then.

    just for the benefit of everyone else: their is no better form of explanation in science than a theory.

    I concur with your statement, you are probably right.!

    Because at the Quantum Level our Cosmos in Harmonious

    Fluctuating Probabilities and Uncertainties.

    A scientific theory is an explanation of an aspect of the natural world that can be repeatedly tested and verified in accordance with the scientific method, using accepted protocols of observation, measurement, and evaluation of results. Where possible, theories are tested under controlled conditions in an experiment
