Why is the plate movement of the earth still a theory?
Firstly, there definitely are plates, and they definitely move. Those are facts. Secondly, "theory" in science doesn't mean the same thing it does in everyday language. In science, something doesn't qualify as a theory unless it explains everything we already knew and (correctly) predicts things we didn't already know. A "theory" is something that is generally considered to be almost certainly true, barring later discoveries showing that it may not be complete. That doesn't make it "wrong", necessarily, it just means it may only apply in special cases (or, perhaps, may NOT apply in certain special cases).

Science is always changing Which things in science are facts Which things are theories Which ones change with new research and time and which ones never change?
Science is all about exploring ideas, formulating hypotheses, and testing them repeatedly. Scientists always try to duplicate their experiments or to collaborate with other scientists working on the same problem. If a lot of scientists produce the same results over and over again, then the hypothesis becomes a working theory. It's not unusual for scientists to disagree on theories - even on how data is interpreted. The only things that don't change, the things that are facts, are the data and observations collected through the scientific method.If a theory stands the test of time, it becomes a paradigm. Society also has an influence on scientific theories and paradigms. Sometimes a particular theory is widely accepted among scientists but not among certain groups in society. The resistance to change is strong in human culture, and it can take hundreds of years for a scientific theory or paradigm to be accepted by societies.
