Science doesn't "change" its mind. It forms models that allow humans to predict how the universe works.
Humor me, but isn't one of the implicit claims of the scientific worldview that if one wants to be accurate in their assessment of the world, that they ought to believe that the current model is true? Minimally, act on that basis. This seems to be a widely held perspective.
Personally, I am pretty sure that isn't how actual scientists actually work (see this book for an easy reference). So if you're the type of person who likes to follow those you are quite clever and accomplished, then that's an objection. Philosophically, science seems to be best fueled, in the normative sense, by inspiration and intuition, beyond mere minor extension of a current theory. The key element to the enterprise of science is that those intuitions are tested in a rigorous manner to see if they correspond to reality.
