  The eurion constellation is a security feature used on many banknotes. It’s made up from 5 circles and often integrated into larger patterns that make it less obvious. Printers identify it and reject to print money.

    Ok, I get that, but just seems like engineering to me, nothing to do with science

      Now I am confused. How is engineering disjunct from science? And even beyond that, there is astronomy involved (star map, eurion being based on Orion), which has something to do with science.

        By that definition everything is a science. Is sopping up water with a sponge also science because of all the biology and fluid mechanics that can describe that action?

        Everything can be “related” to science because science is a method of studying things to determine truth, and also the entire body of work that come from that study. Engineering is an applied science, it uses that body of study to design things (though doesn’t really have to).
