IN Science talking about -reality- is, less or more, same as talking about a deity or truth or aeternity or infinite.. not very clear, what is -reality-?<p>Scientific theory are first about -facts-, measures, events, and they are not -true/false- but more or less precise, describing -something- about the world (reality?) not absolute but definitively a kind of knoweledge we cannot ignore, if we want made an airplane capable to fly.<p>When the pile of facts grow is easy to name it 'reality', and the shape it take can take a sort of meaning and guide the evolution of the science, we can name this 'explanations'? maybe yes, some kind of synthesis is necessary and is not a full scientific tool, but in the evolution of science this seems a necessary part.. as is the desire and pleasure or obsession doing a research of to study something.<p>More than this, philosophy can have every kind of solitary orgasm running in the space left free by the science
