How the evolution of technology has affected science

This essay will explain how technology has affected medicinal, military and discoveries that have helped us to reveal a little more about our world like those of the sea or those of space.

Although it seems that technology has only brought benefits to the world of science, it has also brought several negative effects in society such as electromagnetic pollution, the interest in manufacturing more powerful firefighters, among others.

However, it has affected society in some negative aspects, it is also important.

The evolution of technology has affected science in some negative aspects such as electromagnetic pollution or the creation of biological weapons. 

Electromagnetic pollution (Balmori, 2009) is a negative effect of technology today, this problem is the pollution produced by the radiation of any electronic equipment found in our society today. According to this study, people living near high voltage electric towers are more likely to acquire diseases such as cancer. Another concern that must be taken into account when using mobile phones, tablets or other electronic equipment is that they also transmit harmful radiation for our body.

Biological weapons is another very important problem since these are able to make biological agents genetically modified to increase their pathogenic power. These pathogenic agents can transmit viruses and bacteria such as bacilus anthracis, clostridium botulinum, yersinia pestis and ebola, these diseases at first do not have to be mortal, but when they are technologically manipulated they become lethal.

Although it is thought that these weapons are science fiction, reality is very different, according to the very.It is today at least 17 countries in which these biological weapons are being manufactured among them are Iraq, Bulgaria, India, Russia, China, Libya and Syria.

Despite these inconveniences, science has shown that its positive aspects are too great to be overcome by these problems.

The development of medicine This aspect is one of the greatest since it has saved thousands of people who had a disease without a cure and thanks to these advances they managed to obtain that cure. Technology has facilitated the development of priests of some diseases that were previously thought to be incurable, thanks to microscopes, bacteria of some diseases have been detected that doctors have taken into account to create priests. Despite this great technological solution to discover diseases and to create priests, scientists have also created machines to detect diseases in people who had no idea that possessed them. These disease detecting machines have protected many people because once the disease is detected, a treatment can already be carried out to try to eliminate it.

Efficiency and productivity in most cases technology has been an aid to create modern companies since productivity and efficiency increase. Real -time access to the company’s index has helped make a faster decision. Access to work and information from anywhere in the world has optimized people’s work since they do not have to wait to be in their office to get to work, something similar happens with the communication of people from different partsof the world. With the advanced technology we have today people can communicate immediately from anywhere in the world. Also with the electronic teams that we have today it is easier to discover some novelty in the world of science because of the accessibility we have to any type of information.

The discoveries of science (the country) Percival Lowell assured that Mars had channels created by extraterrestrial intelligence (this happened in 1855) and that the best thing to do was communicate with them, a long time was spent from his life trying to study these channelsBut with the evolution of Nikole Tesla technology in 1899, Mars observed with a greater power telescope and said “to be truthful, we have no evidence that Mars is inhabited,” what Nikole was referring to here is that what Lowell sawIn 1855 it was an optical illusion caused by the sun or the moon. This is a clear example of how the evolution of technology has helped clarify some theories and discover new things about our world. Other examples of science discoveries helped by technology can be the revelation of new types of species in the sea (thanks to submarines) and the discovery of new meteorites and planets, thanks to space and satellite ships.

In conclusion, the evolution of technology regarding science has had several problems, but it can be said that its positive aspects exceed their negative aspects since they have had a greater impact on science and because technology in science helps usdevelop more and faster even if you always have some problems. In general everything good has to have its bad side but the human race has managed to create a method that helps us more than harms us.
