Why can scientists never prove their findings?

This is a misnomer. Scientists often and do prove their findings, particularly through repetition of an experiment. Scientists cannot prove a negative (reindeer can't fly), but can only prove such under specific conditions (these reindeer can't fly in March). Theories are not said to be proven until they can fully explain a set of conditions. Even then, parts of a theory can be proven, but the whole remains open to refinement.


Astronomers use various tools to gather evidence in support of the Big Bang Theory What are two tools used?

Real scientists do not "gather evidence in support of" any theory. The technical term for that kind of thing is "cherry-picking". Real scientists build a theory to explain the evidence that they have already gathered, and then test the theory to see whether it holds water. The easiest, fastest way to make sure that you are regarded as a wingnut by real scientists is to adopt or invent a theory, and then spend your time trying to prove it.


What is the difference between model and theory?

Theory: an explanation of an event that has been supported by consistent, repeated experimental results and has therefore been accepted by most scientists. Model: A verbal, mathematical, or visual representation of a scientific structure or process, which allows scientists to construct and test inferences and theories.

Has Lamarck's theory of evolution been proved?

Scientists do not prove things. Lamarck's theory is long refuted as acquired characteristics and the use and disuse concepts are not explanations for evolution of populations.
