    Default How do I display the contents of this array?

    This might be a stupid question to some people. Sadly I am a rookie programmer. This is my task: Display the contents of the array by using a
    method that receives the array as a parameter and uses System.out. and here is my code:
    import java.util.Scanner;
     
    public class Lab10_Ex3
    {
    	public static void main(String[] args)
    	{		
    		String[] scientists = {"Einsten", "Newton", "Copernicus", "Kepler"};
    		strings(scientists);
    	}
    	public static void strings(String[] array)
    	{
    		Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
     
    		System.out.print(array);
    	}
    }

    for some reason this comes up as the output:
    [Ljava.lang.String;@61de33
