Half of dozen thiests have asked me this same question pretending to be athiests.
Everything in science is a model. Clockwork that function like the reality and produces similar results, so we can make predictions about the reality, but it's still a model. You can have several of them that function differently, but long as they produce the same results that match reality, all are equally correct.
Your perception of reality is also a model. Produced by your brain using input from your senses. "Construct" for you to live in.
Science is about probing elements that remain consistently same for everyone and using those to build more extensive models. Belief is not a component of any value.
