Answer: find the answer in the explanation.
Explanation:
Some of the methods of science are hypothesis, observations and experiments.
Scientific research and findings cut across many areas and field of life. Field like engineering, astronomy and medicine e.t.c
Using models in research is another great method in which researchers and scientists can master a process of a system and predict how it works.
Wilbur and Orville Wright wouldn't have died if the first airplane built by these two wonderful brothers was first researched by using models and simulations before embarking on a test.
Modelling in science involves calculations by using many mathematical methods and equations and also by using many laws of Physics. In this present age, many of these are computerised.
In space science, it will save lives, time and money to first model and simulate if any new thing is discovered in astronomy rather than people going to the space by risking their lives.
Also in medicine, drugs and many medical equipment cannot be tested by using people. This may lead to chaos and loss of lives.
So research using models in astronomy, medicine, engineering and many aspects of science and technology can indeed save lives.
