Trays: Day 2

1) Accurately documenting our progress is so difficult because we don't know if our progress is really progress or if it's wrong. We don't have a good way of really testing it out. Writing our ideas down can sometimes be a challenge, too.

2) Our progress demonstrates that science ideas change because our ideas have changed. Also, because with the more evidence we gathered about the trays, and the more "technology" we got to use made our ideas better.

3) Why scientists "clean up" their progress after publishing...
we think that scientists clean up their progress before publishing is to hide their wrong ideas.
We also think it is because they are trying to prove ONLY their idea, and not other things they tried. Also, to hide mistakes they might've made along the way.
