There was a time when science could not even approach what is commonly termed 'psychic phenomena'. The classical physics dictated that everything within the purview of science had to be testable and quantifiable. But so-called psychic phenomena are more qualitative and not as easily tested. Most scientists thought that the implications of psychic phenomena, if true, might even overturn science. There seemed to be so much of a disconnect that most scientists though these phenomena probably were not real or at least not physical.
With the dawning of modern contemporary science based in quantum mechanics all of that changes. It is now well known that the world is not the material objective reality scientists once thought. This has been proven by experiments in quantum mechanics, which again is the basis of modern physics. Quantum physics is not pseudo-science. Parapsychology research has shown that there are abilties and phenomena that are real and cannot be explained using classical physics. However when the implications of quantum physics are applied to these parapsychology findings, there do appear to be intriguing similarities that are too striking to ignore.
New theories of information ruling the structure of the universe, and of hyperdimensional realities are beginning to suggest that the apparently strange findings in parapsychology research may not only be one day explained by science but even are predictions from current theories.

The development of a theory is typically driven by observations, experimentation, evidence, and logical reasoning. Scientists gather data through research and experiments, analyze the results, and propose a hypothesis to explain the observed phenomenon. Through continued testing and refinement, a theory emerges that can explain and predict the behavior of the phenomenon.
The hypothesis supported by thousands of scientists states that the same observation or phenomenon is reproducible and valid across multiple experiments and studies. This consensus among scientists adds credibility and strength to the hypothesis.
A scientific theory presents an explanation for a phenomenon. Using that explanation, one can then make predictions about what will happen under certain conditions. But the prediction is not the theory, it is a implication of the theory.

Sometimes the scientists can't think of a suitable theory to explain their results but publish their experiments anyway to provide data for others so maybe another scientist can create a theory.
The theory of evaporation was not invented by a single person, as it is a natural phenomenon that has been observed and studied over centuries by many scientists and researchers. However, the understanding of evaporation as a process involving the conversion of liquid water into vapor is attributed to the collective efforts of scientists in the field of thermodynamics and fluid dynamics.

Theory
Evolutionary theory can account for the phenomenon of a new species. This is because different species can evolve from a common ancestor.
