Scientists ply their trade dangerously.
You see, many of their theories and explanations defy logic.
They also sometimes go contrary to public opinion.
But since their ideas are based on experimentation and observation, this means that what they surmise may change with further enlightenment.
That is the premise behind today’s FamilyFirst pick: Strange Science. Note their mission:

Ever wonder how people figured out there used to be such things as dinosaurs? Curious about how scientists learned to reconstruct fossil skeletons? The knowledge we take for granted today was slow in coming, and along the way, scientists and scholars had some weird ideas. This Web site shows some of their mistakes, provides a timeline of events, gives biographies of a few of the people who have gotten us where we are today, and lists resources you can use to learn more.

Dinosaur fossils certainly were baffling to medieval scientists. Additionally, strange specimens gathered from the far corners of the earth simply defied explanation to scientists who had never seen anything like them before.
Read up on how scientists have had to make changes in their thinking over the centuries. The simple disproving of the existence of unicorns is a good example.
