What is the Role of Numerology in Astronomy and Science?

In summary, numerology is not considered a legitimate aspect of astronomy and science. While some may use numerological concepts to make connections or predictions, there is no scientific evidence to support its validity. Instead, astronomy and science rely on empirical data and mathematical equations to understand and explain the natural world. Numerology, on the other hand, is based on the belief that numbers hold mystical or divine significance, making it a pseudoscience rather than a legitimate part of scientific inquiry. While it may be of interest to some, numerology should not be considered a reliable source of information in the fields of astronomy and science.

Wow I thought that was what astronomy was, numbers but I guess I was wrong. Sorry for the intrusion.

Welcome to PF. There are certainly a lot of numbers in Astronomy and Science, but numerology is not allowed at PF. Have a nice day. :smile:
