Why does science tend to be a self-correcting way of knowing about things?

Because the heart of science is investigation, seeking to learn what has not already been learned and to get an accurate understanding of ourselves and the universe around us. The principle of science is to have proof of something, and to eliminate one's bias and preconceptions as best one can.
It happens, sometimes, that new ideas and theories in science contradict existing ideas or theories; sometimes this happens because new technology measures things more accurately (or measures things that could not be measured before); sometimes it happens because exceptions have been found to an existing theory and a new theory is developed that encompasses all cases or better fits existing data.
Science allows for progress, and true scientists allow for their own mistakes and errors, and to proceed on the most accurate known facts instead of presumption and assumption.
