Question

One scientist discovered an accurate way to measure the temperature of planets. when would the scientist's discovery most likely develop into a theory?

when the discovery is demonstrated to others
when the results are published in a newspaper
when the scientific community retests and accepts the results
when no other scientist is able to get results of the same accuracy

Answer 1

D) when no other scientist is able to get results of the same accuracy.
it might be that one

Answer 2

when the scientific community retests and accepts the results

Step-by-step explanation:

Experiments must be tested in different independent labs all over the world. The results may be falsifiable. When the same observation and same results are obtained a consensus is reached in the scientific community and only after critical scrutiny accepts the results, explanation or observation as a scientific theory.
