characteristic quality of civilization . Any civilization broadly 
expressed itself in the form of intellect and scientific advancements,
 is an aspect of intellectual activity. Science generates information ,
 change in attitude and new values . Promotion of science should lead
 to the breakdown of unreasonable ,superstitious beliefs and ideas that
 so often prevent human progress.
*Technology is a major instrument of social and economic change.
*Science and technology go a long way in ensuring optimum use of resources.   
         ' Economic and Human '.   
*The ultimate aim of science and technology to provide an understanding 
and explanation of known facts on this basis to make prediction which can 
be verified by experiment.
*Basic research by itself contributes to culture social well being , 
defense ,economic prosperity, public health and education,
*A country may lead in science in science but not necessarily in technology. 
while science is intellectual where as technology is commercial .
*Technology is a powerful tool for economic growth .Science has 
vastly improved man's understanding himself the universe and his 
relationship to it .Science bridges the gulf between generations and
overcome these barriers between nations and cultures.
