Pseudoscience and frontier science

Culture, media & expressions

A pseudoscience imitates the form of science without respecting its method (untestable hypotheses, cherry-picked evidence, no peer review). “Frontier science” explores questions at the margins, with method. The difficulty is telling the two apart over time; the deciding criterion is the quality of data and their verifiability.
