If scientists' experiments do not confirm their hypothesis, they analyze the data to understand why the results differed from their expectations. They may revise their hypothesis based on new insights, modify their experimental design, or conduct further experiments to explore the unexpected outcomes. This process is essential for scientific inquiry, as it often leads to new discoveries and a deeper understanding of the subject being studied. Ultimately, unexpected results can provide valuable information and drive scientific progress.
Scientists then state another hypothesis and test it out with another experiment.
Scientists make observations to help them make a hypothesis or collect data during an experiment.

If you develop an experiment that truly demonstrates that the hypothesis is wrong*, then the hypothesis will lose its acceptance in the scientific community.* Such an experiment would have to be repeatable by other scientists AND accepted by interested scientists as a proof that the hypothesis is wrong.

Scientists test hypothesis by setting up an experiment. They choose a independent and a dependent variable and test the experiment.
