Our progression in science has led to improvement in quality of life in terms of enjoyment (technology) and health (discovery of bacteria/germs)

We have been awarded longer lives, more understanding of the past, new tech in hospitals, etc.

But, at the same time, it has been abused

Science has also been used to make things like bombs, which, ethically, only cause harm to people.

Also, our understanding of science has also been at the cost of people. Or, in other words, people have been hurt for the purpose of experimentation and discovery. (Example: Tuskegee experiments ⇒ minorities, without their consent, were experimented on and, consequently, harmed so scientists could learn more about syphilis)
