Imagine how our different our lives would be without the discovery of penicillin, the antibiotic which helps treat illnesses, or how difficult it was to solve crimes before the discovery of DNA.
Science has made many important changes to our lives and to celebrate its achievements we have National Science Week, which this year begins on Friday 12 March.
The event is organised to encourage more people to learn about science. Across the UK there are hundreds of hands-on activities and exhibitions to get you involved and learning about science.
Norfolk has a Libraries into Laboratories theme, where libraries across the county are holding fun days with science exhibitions, talks, quizzes and demonstrations.
All events are free and provide an opportunity for the whole family to join in and learn something new about the world we live in!
