Science doesn't answer "why?", just "how?" (Of course, often, people use "why" to mean "how", as in "Why is the sky blue?". The light wavelength absorbtion of air is the mechanism, not the reason.)
Of course, when it comes to quantum mechanics, science is still struggling with "what", never mind "how".
