Explain the difference between science and technology?

Answer 1

Science discovers possibilities and unfolds/reveals what was hidden before.

Technology is materialistic machinery that is built from scientific data.

Technology basically serves science to bid it's will. It's a tool to further discover scientific finds.
science has no tech in it but technology has lots in it
pure science is the gathering of a new information or the discovery of a new fact.pure science adds scientific knowledge but doesn't have practical uses. technology is the practical scientific information.
Science is the study of all that is in the universe and leads to knowledge as well as theories to explain observed phenomena. Knowledge expands daily as scientists learn by observing and testing phenomena and theories. Technology is the application of knowledge although many technological advancements have occurred as a result of serendipity or an accidental application of facts that were previously unknown or misunderstood and sometimes still unknown and misunderstood. Thus technological advancements sometimes precede knowledge acquired through methods accepted by the scientists in an effort to explain phenomena. The time line required by humans to apply knowledge to technology varies tremendously and cannot be calculated or tabulated because it depends on a multitude of variables, some of which are related while some not related at all. When humans have more time or incentives to be creative, technology advances more quickly. When humans are repressed through tyranny, laws or by a constant need to find shelter, food and society, then the rate of technological advancement slows. A single invention can speed technologically tremendously. For example, the discoveries of electricity and electromagnetism and the theory of how sound moves in waves through air were applied by the inventor of the electric speaker, who applied his knowledge of scientific facts and theories. Electromagnetic speakers, microphones and headphones made much additional technology available in short order: radios, telephones, talking pictures, megaphone, walkie talkies, computer speakers, cell phones, etc.
