There's a phrase that you're going to hear both Brett and I use over and over again and that phrase is good explanations. Good explanations is deutsche's Improvement upon the scientific method at the same time. It's beyond science. It's not just true in science, but in all of life, we navigate our way through life and we do it successfully by creating good explanations if you take away nothing else try and understand what a good explanation is a good explanation first and foremost.
It is testify about / falsifiable. You can run something experiment in the real world to see if it's true or not stepping back from that.

The in such a way that it looks like the Sun is setting which is the proper explanation because looking at it naively you would think the sun is hurtling across the sky and there goes the sun again going around the Earth, but that may not be the only explanation. There is a completely creative explanation that seems to fly in the face of the obvious observation of the sun's movement, but could also fit the facts but it requires some creativity and that creative explanation is that the Earth is rotating good explanations don't have to be obvious. They're not derived from
just looking at what happened in the past, but they are testable their experiments we can run to figure out is it the Sun that is going around the earth origin of the Earth turning.
