An eight-armed, pig-snouted brittle star found in the depths of the South Pacific has roots reaching back to the days of the dinosaurs.

The brittle star, which has a body just 3 centimeters or 1..1 inch in diameter and arms approximately 6 cm or 3 inches long, represents a completely new family of these starfish relatives — one with members dating back 180 million years, to Jurassic period  

 

The britte star shows it followers the Genesis  order of things, It hasn’t changed much in millions of years.

Baby dinosaurs are according to secular scientist living in the artic, year around, According to a study, they found more than a hundered baby dinosaurs roughly 70 millions years ago,

“Researchers have known that dinosaurs lived in  polar regions since oil workers found dinosaur bones there in the 1950s, Erickson said. In the following decades, scientists with the University of Alaska Museum of the North discovered the remains of teensy baby dinosaurs in the state.”

This can be interpreted by the flood of Noah’s day,  It produced dinosaurs, crocodiles and raven sized birds at the same time,

Secular science:. Earth has a pulse of 27.5 million years

Science can tell us an exinting source of things. Scientists are supposed to be objective. Sometimes, however, their conclusions are questionable. Mark Twain put it this way in Life on the Mississippi, “There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.” Here is the context:

In the space of one hundred and seventy-six years the Lower Mississippi has shortened itself two hundred and forty-two miles. That is an average of a trifle over one mile and a third per year. Therefore, any calm person, who is not blind or idiotic, can see that in the Old Oolitic Silurian Period, just a million years ago next November, the Lower Mississippi River was upwards of one million three hundred thousand miles long, and stuck out over the Gulf of Mexico like a fishing-rod. And by the same token any person can see that seven hundred and forty-two years from now the Lower Mississippi will be only a mile and three-quarters long, and Cairo and New Orleans will have joined their streets together, and be plodding comfortably along under a single mayor and a mutual board of aldermen. There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.

A geological theory known as uniformitarism postulates that slow processes have formed huge formations such as the Grand Canyon over millions of years. Uniformitarism in geology was popularised by James Hutton (1726-1797) and Charles Lyell (1797-1875), inspiring Charles Darwin to use a similar approach to biological evolution.

Now, evolution has taken up science, Here’s want live science says about the pulse of the earth,

Most major geological events in Earth's recent history have clustered in 27.5-million-year intervals — a pattern that scientists are now calling the "pulse of the Earth," according to a new study.

Over the past 260 million years, dozens of major geological events, from sea level changes to volcanic eruptions, seem to follow this rhythmic pattern. 

 

But if you take away the flood of Noah’s days, the  days become longer, And days become millions of years,

Yes, after the Fall,  Spiders and snakes  got to be venomous. They could take on snakes, which are also venomous

There was no death before the fall,but after it death prevailed.

Now a study looks at how spiders take on snakes, The study researchers found 319 records of spiders killing and feasting upon snakes, 297 of which were naturally occurring events in the wild. (The remaining 22 were staged in captivity.) About a third of those examples came from scientific observations published in journals, while the rest were found on news or social media sites.

Here’ s what New Scietist says about  junk food:

“CUT down on fatty food. No, sugar. Aim for a Mediterranean diet. And remember to eat more plants…”

Now, it does not state what the junk food is.

In the past, scientist said that vegetable were good, Now, however, they are Bad.  They could increase the rate of heart disease and cancer by a whole lot,

This just shows that dietary records can change a lot. How could this affect evolution, is a question not asked,

The universe is big and is cleverly designed.

 

Scientist have discovered “A crescent of galaxies spanning 3.3 billion light-years is among the largest known structures in the universe and challenges some of astronomers' most basic assumptions about the cosmos. 

 

The epic arrangement, called the Giant Arc, consists of galaxies, galactic clusters, and lots of gas and dust. It is located 9.2 billion light-years away and stretches across roughly a 15th of the observable universe. “

Little bird was a lizard, evolutionist say

Last year,  a tiny fossil became big news. Trapped inside ancient amber, scientists thought they'd found the skull of a minuscule, hummingbird-like dinosaur with pointy teeth, bulging eyes, and surprisingly robust bones.

It was like no ancient bird or dinosaur ever discovered before. That's because it was actually neither.

Here’s what I wrote about it then: 

This is the standard view of birds or animals trapped in amber found in Myanmar. This creature belonged to the group of dinosaurs that according to evolutionists gave rise to modern birds.

Without the rest of the body, the scientists can’t tell exactly how Oculudentavis is related to other birdlike dinosaurs—or whether it could fly. But they suspect it belongs to a group of relatively primitive birds, perhaps similar to Archaeopteryx and Jeholornis, species that lived between 150 million and 120 million  years ago the researchers of a new study said.

However, this is all wrong. it was not a dinosaur but a lizard, “A similar skeleton found in the same area now suggests the so-called "eye tooth bird" (Oculudentavis khaungraae) is, in reality, a lizard. Its long snout had simply been squashed over time so that it resembled more of a beak..”

"Imagine taking a lizard and pinching its nose into a triangular shape," explains Edward Stanley, director of the Florida Museum of Natural History.

Crows may have bird-brains, but the feathered creatures can understand  the highly abstract concept of zero, a new research suggests. 

But having  bird brains does not mean  they are stupid.

”In the new study, published June 2 in The Journal of Neuroscience, the team ran experiments with two male carrion crows (Corvus corone), during which the birds sat on a wooden perch and interacted with a computer monitor in front of them. In each trial, a grey screen containing zero to four black dots popped up in front of the crows; this "sample" image was followed by a "test" image containing either the same or a different number of dots. “

 

 The crows were able to know the difference between two and three and also zero.

Michael Packard says he was diving when he ended up in the marine giant's mouth for about 30-40 seconds off Provincetown, Massachusetts.

His topside crewmate, who had been desperately scanning the water for telltale bubbles from Mr Packard's oxygen respirator, hauled him back into the boat.

This brings to mind the story of Jonah in the Old Testament.

On  Thursday, the The Moon  almost entirely blocked the sun, leaving only a "ring of fire" visible. 

The Moon’s size and distance from Earth determine how big tides we have. Without tides marine life would sooner or later come to an end, and our planet could turn into Mars’ twin.

The moon is actually always a supermoon. It tells us about creation and the uniqueness of the Earth

Zombie animal found in the Artic

Evolutionists belief that the world is millions of years old. Thus, it is np secret that animals have survived for far less than the amount, .

 Tiny zombies that were frozen in Arctic permafrost for 24,000 years were recently brought back to life and have produced clones in a lab in Russia. 

These hardy creatures are bdelloid rotifers, or wheel animals, so-named for the wheel-like ring of tiny hairs that circle their mouths. Rotifers are multicellular microscopic animals that live in freshwater environments, and they've been around for about 50 million years. 

Permafrost — ground that has been frozen solid for two years or more — can preserve snapshots of life (and death) from millennia ago. For instance, a small bird carcass found in Siberian permafrost in 2020 was 46,000 years old but looked "like it [had] died just a few days ago," i have previously reported a frozen and mummified cave bear, also found in Siberia in 2020 and dating to about 39,000 years ago, still had a fleshy black nose and much of its fur.

Tardigrades survive impacts of up to 825 meters per second

A pair of researchers at the University of Kent has found that tardigrades are able to survive impacts at speeds of up to 825 meters per second. In their paper published in the journal Astrobiology, Alejandra Traspas and Mark Burchell describe experiments they conducted that involved firing canisters containing tardigrades at high speeds at sand targets.

Tardigrads are small animals that they are living fossils that appeared in  the Cambrian strata “530 million years” ago, which means that evolutionists see them as one of the oldest kinds of living fossils.

The researchers obtained 20 tardigrade specimens and put them in a deep freeze to induce their sleep-like state. They then placed them in groups of two or three into thin cylinders filled with water. The cylinders were then placed inside of a larger cylinder that served as an ammunition shell for a two-stage light gas gun. The gun was placed inside of a vacuum chamber where its shell was fired at a target made of sand. Shots were fired from the gun at different speeds to see what impact each would have on the passenger tardigrades.

The researchers found out that tardigrades who got less than  625 meters per second could survive an impact

Some evolutionary researchers have speculated that tardigrades could survive in space, if their speed was less than 825 meters per second.

Nasa has announced that it is sending two new missions to Venus to examine the planet's atmosphere and geological features.

 

The first instance is called Davinci+ (Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging) mission will measure the planet's atmosphere to gain insight into how it formed and evolved. It will also aim to determine whether Venus ever had an ocean.

 NASA has termed the second mission, Veritas (Venus Emissivity, Radio Science, InSAR, , Topography, and Spectroscopy), will map the planet's surface to understand its geological history and investigate how it developed so differently than Earth.

 

Paul Rincon, Science Editor, BBC News website says” It may have harboured oceans for a billion years of its history, and there is even a region of the planet's thick atmosphere where microbial life could survive, floating among the clouds.” .

 So, the question seems to be  When did Venus grow to its present status, so different from Earth^?

 Dropping the millions of years might do the trick. Maybe Venus looked like it does today when God created it, ^.

Bats tend to isolate when they are sick

According to a study conducted by researchers at the Tel Aviv University, bats also distance themselves when they are  sick..

 

“The study monitored two colonies of Egyptian fruit bats – one living in an enclosure and the other in its natural environment. To study the behavior of bats when they get sick, the researchers injected several bats in each group with a bacteria-like protein, thereby stimulating their immune response without generating any real danger to the bats. Tests revealed symptoms such as a high fever, fatigue and weight loss, and the ‘ill’ bats’ behavior was tracked with GPS.ESEARCHERS.“

 

The researchers found out that sick bats chose to keep away from the colony. So, the likelihood of bats passing pathogens to humans under regular conditions is very low because sick bats tend to isolate themselves and stay in the cave.
