Question

Why is it important for scientists to use the scientific method?

Answer 1

because they are scientists

Answer 2

The Scientific Method is a method followed to make experiment results repeatable, as multiple people can do the same experiment and get the same answer, making the experiment reliable. It is a base for proving the results are correct. If it was not used, people would go back to less organized science, like Aristotalian science (he claimed the sun revolved around the earth, and was believed over other scientists with the correct view because he was popular, before the scientific method's creation).
