Explanation:
The word Theory in science often has a different meaning than most people think. The word theory does not mean a supposition (something held without truth): It means a meticulous explanation of how a phenomenon occurs or how something works, backed by empirical data and sometimes clarifying predictions. Just like the Theory of Evolution which is generally unanimously understood as a truth of science, the Theory of Relativity retained its phrasing (the theory word), even past experimental proof.
