+the Science! skill detailed here.
+
+.. _`default skill list`: https://fate-srd.com/fate-core/default-skill-list
+
+Science!
+========
+
+The Science! skill is about researching the laws of nature *and*
+warping them.
+
+
+
+Default skill list
+==================
+
+See the Fate Core manual for details on the default skills; these are
+a few setting-specific notes.
+
+Drive
+-----
+
+For simplicity, this skill applies to all kinds of moving things
+including riding animals, horse-driven coaches / carriages and
+self-propelled creation of Science!.
+
+If relevant for your game feel free to split this into multiple skills
+as needed.
