Scientific Method applied to Resurrection of Christ

"The resurrection of Jesus Christ was predicted centuries before it occurred. It was also corroborated by eyewitness testimony. Can science do better than this?

How does “science” exceed any other form of investigation?
-It includes logic, but so do other forms of analysis.
-It includes mathematics, but so do non-scientific activities, like bookkeeping.
-It requires evidence, but so do other university departments outside the science building, like history.
-It includes falsification, but so do trials in courtrooms.

Prediction is one hallmark of science that ranks it above these other activities. If a scientific hypothesis makes a prediction that comes true, and it is specific enough to weed out confirmation bias, it deserves careful attention."
CEH
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once;
of whom the greater part remain unto this present,
but some are fallen asleep.
1 Corinthians 15:4,6
