Astronomy is a natural science based upon observations. Observations are made by somebody at a given time and place, obtained with certain instruments using certain techniques and are interpreted with the help of certain models or theories. The latter may change with time, but observations can be used with any new theory, provided the observational data and the reduction techniques are known.
