Best Answer

There is no "Theory of Science" however the basis of science is:

* Observation produces information * Observation leads to conclusions * Conclusions lead to the generation of theorys * Testing confirms or denies theories * The las step leads to better theories to test * In the end we will have a pretty good idea of how things work.
