Research can be defined to be search for knowledge or any systematic investigation to establish facts. The primary purpose for applied research (as opposed to basic research) is discovering, interpreting, and the development of methods and systems for the advancement of human knowledge on a wide variety of scientific matters of our world and the universe. Research can use the scientific method, but need not do so.

Scientific research relies on the application of the scientific method, a harnessing of curiosity. This research provides scientific information and theories for the explanation of the nature and the properties of the world around us. It makes practical applications possible. Scientific research is funded by public authorities, by charitable organisations and by private groups, including many companies. Scientific research can be subdivided into different classifications according to their academic and application disciplines.

Historical research is embodied in the scientific method.

The term research is also used to describe an entire collection of information about a particular subject.

A. The bigger ones are designed to launch nuclear missles or destroy other ships and really have no reason to dive to the deepest depths of the ocean and because of their size would be way too expensive to do so..

How does one become a research consultant for Hollywood films?
Q. I'm interested in doing research for films, especially historical pieces, like Braveheart or Shakespeare in Love, but not sure where to go for this information. Can anyone help? Do you know the names of any organizations or major research firms that do this type of work?

A. I think for this purpose its not that people go to hollywood but actually Hollywood people go to different experts and ask them to do research for them. I guess if you become story writer or Director than you can do such movies.
