1. Make observations

2. Form hypothesis that explains observations.
3. Perform experiments that test the hypothesis.
The data from these experiments with either contradict the hypothesis which means you need to go back to step 2 again, or the data supports the hypothesis, which means...
4. The hypothesis is now a theory.
5.Relevant data must be collected over a long period of time. If this data contradicts the theory then you must go back to step 2. If the data supports the theory...
