In Season 5 of the Forecast, we travel back in time more than four centuries to early modern Europe, where ideas and practices fundamental to modern science were just emerging. Popular histories of the Scientific Revolution often frame this period as one of conflict between science and religion, as reason finally triumphed over superstition. This season, student historians get to the heart of those myths, uncovering a more complex history of the relationship between knowledge, discovery, and belief.
