The word science derives from the Greek, and means to know. So as our body of knowledge improves, then our statements in science will change.

As to examples,

a) once upon a time, phlogiston was thought to be responsible for combustion.

b) The definition of the length of the metre has changed with better determinants of its measure.

c) We now know that an atom is not indivisible.
