Researches have studied the barn owl. They Suppose that giving a drone its tail would make a drone more aerodynamic.
Biomimicry or biomimetics has recently become a success, that is, copying amazing design seen in nature, has become a flourishing research field.-
Biomimicry is a science that brings out that what God has
designed. And what he did, He did very well.
Design
in nature is so obvious that it’s practically impossible to deny it.

“The world's largest Jurassic pterosaur - a
170-million-year-old winged reptile - has been found protruding from the rocks
of the Isle of Skye.
PhD student Amelia Penny spotted its sharp-toothed jaw
in a layer of ancient limestone on Skye's coast.
Perosaurs were almost too heavy to fly, But God made them succeed in the almost impossible task.
Pterosaurs were almost too heavy for evolution to cope with them. And the giraffe-sized flying creature defied Darwinian explanations. Moreover, a rapid burial of pterosaurs suggests Noah’s flood.

When a humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae)
has found its mate, it will travel 6,000 kilometres or 3,700 miles to keep it.
This speaks of the love animals have for each other.
With some of them travelling
up to 6, 000 kilometres in search of a mate.
Humpback whales are found in all major oceans, and they
travel to a get a spouse,
This is how Kenneth Lacovara, a professor of paleontology and geology at Rowan University, explains
the difference between whales and sharks.
He says that this is
the way their respective ancestors (Pakicetus for whales and Tiktaalik for fish) moved, and they obviously haven’t had the time
to change their habits despite making transitions from land to water (whales) and water to land (fish ancestor) during the assumed tens of millions of years, and then the poor fish had to get wet again.
Tales like these might be entertaining, but they’re definitely not based on facts.

Evolutionist claim
that around 106 million years ago, the DNA of a virus that is, the early Cretaceous
period, somehow got integrated into the genome of one of our mammal ancestors.
According to
evolution, two million years later, something similar happened again with a
closely related virus. Now, the ancient remnants of those viruses have been
found inside our cells.
But the dates of the viruss are wrong.

"Cellular solids such as foams or honeycombs can exhibit excellent stiffness or toughness with minimal weight.
Yang et al. examined ossicles, calcareous skeletal elements from the skeletons of knobby starfish Protoreaster nodosus
The authors show that the structure consists of a dual-scale microlattice with both an atomic-level calcite and a micro-level diamond-triply periodic minimal surface, as well as gradients in composition and atomic level defects. It is these combined features that enhance the damage tolerance of the ossicles under compression, giving the starfish remarkable specific energy absorption capabilities."
Biomimicry or
copying design features seen in living organisms has become a lucrative research field, as the originals are almost always better than what human engineers could have come up
with.
Many other
features in animals bear the hallmarks of intelligent design. A recent study looked at the zebra’s tail, which is also a very effective tool.
Other examples include the Saiga antelope’s
air-conditioning nose, the penguin’s anti-free
feathers and an anti-crash system in
birds, to mention just a few.

When NASA’s New
Horizons spacecraft flew past Pluto in July 2015, scientists were expecting to
see a dwarf planet that looked old and its largest moon Charon to be full of
impact craters.
However, what they
saw blew their socks off, as NASA researcher Cathy Olkin put
it in a New Horizons press conference.
Pluto looked far too young to fit into a 4.6
billion year old universe, and so did Charon.
Subsequent images sent by New Horizons
showed more evidence for youth.
Scientist have proposed two interpretations of a cold Pluto. ”The first which involves Pluto forming over millions of years by the slow accretion of cold objects. This version of Pluto eventually would have coalesced enough material that radiative heating from the inside would melt the subsurface ocean. The other hypothesis involves a “warm” or “hot” Pluto, in which Pluto formed over a shorter time period in violent collisions that heated its interior, formed the ocean, and eventually cooled the planet into the majority ice ball we know today. "
Anyhow, Pluto is just cold but its geography tells it is young.

“A lot of people think of a white dwarf as a dead system or a dead end, but this tells us that there is a lot of stuff going on around white dwarfs,” says Jay Farihi at University College London.
Yes, white dwarfs are poisonous. They make living there impossible.
Farihi and his colleagues spotted these hints while observing a star called
WD 1054-226, which lies about 118 light years away, using several powerful
telescopes
The researchers have found that a supposedly looking star
hails about 2.6 million kilometres from the star – about 4 per cent of the
distance between Mercury and the sun – putting their temperatures at around
50°C, which is right in the middle of the range for liquid water. This means
that if there is a planet there, it could have the right temperature for oceans
and maybe even life.
But that is just an assumption. Life only comes from being created.

Recently, Whoopi
Goldberg said the Nazi Holocaust was not about race. She was mistaken, as Hitler
and his Nazi colleagues proved otherwise.
Wilhelm Marr argued the Jews
were not a religion. Rather, they were a race locked in a “struggle for
existence” with Germans
Hitler aided the
mass murder of myriads of Sinti and Roma (Gypsies),
Slavs, and others he saw as racially inferior.
Fritz Lenz was one of the leading
geneticists in Germany before the Nazis came to power. He integrated
anti-Semitism into his co-authored textbook on human genetics. And he was by no
means alone.
The Germans
dubbed the extinction of the Jews as Scientific Racism, so it gave a bad scent to all German philosophies.

Almost two-thirds of seafloor life has not been discovered
yet.
Scientists suppose that microhabitats like deep coral
reefs and underwater volcanoes for species to adapt to. But that does not
mean that such environments gives life on the moons of Jupiter or Saturn.
Life has to be created, as it cannot come by chance.
The current research team
focused on eukaryotic DNA from small organisms. "We're talking about
small animals less than a millimetre or 0.04 inches in size, and probably a lot
of protozoans, a lot of single-celled organisms," Andrew Gooday
said.

Amnesty International has issued a fake “Israeli apartheid” report. It seemed to paint Israel’s
as absurd from its birth and since then the situation has grown even worse.
The
Biden administration rejected it as “absurd.” Some German politicians were furious, and
the Arab population in Israel did not like it
as well.
”Apartheid in Israel is a lie proliferated by a United
Nations dominated by Russia, which is desperate to deflect international
condemnation of its Ukraine-invasion threats, and China, which is hoping that
the world will not notice its sadistic genocide against the Uyghurs during its
fractured Olympic moment.”
”the report spotlights the discredited notion that innocent Arabs are being evicted from their ancient homes in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of Jerusalem. ” However, this section of Jerusalem was owned by jews, as the Jordanians know this.

Researchers from the University of Tsukuba have shown
that according to evolution, the shape the the very first cells take, as life
began to evolve, is important.
Researchers from the University of Tsukuba, in
collaboration with East China Normal University, have shown that E.
coli bacteria grown in a primordial-like environment become spherical.
According to evolution, “Oleic acid is the most common
fatty acid in nature and can be metabolized by E. coli. The team
therefore mimicked primordial conditions by growing six different lineages of
cells in an environment where the only available nutrient was oleic-acid vesicles
(OAVs), rather than the more usual glucose sugar”.
So they say that the first the earliest primitive
cells live was spherical. However, as God caused life to appear, He probably did the whole think at once,
