A spectacular fireball blazing at 47,900 mph or 34 900 miles  will hit the Earth on 1 April, 

Fireballs was seen in England recently and in Norway,

A fireball could also have detonated over the ancient Middle Eastern city of Tall el-Hamman or Sodom around 3,600 years ago. It's possible that the explosion, which was roughly 1,000 times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, set the city instantly ablaze before levelling it with a powerful shockwave, killing all of its inhabitants

That why the biblical Testament is always correct. ,

“Black holes may not destroy all information about what they were originally made of, according to a new set of quantum calculations, which would solve a major physics paradox first described by Stephen Hawking

One of the biggest paradoxes in astrophysics may finally be solved. The question of what happens to information when it falls into a black hole has vexed physicists for decades, and now a group of researchers claims to have figured it out”.

When Stephen Hawking calculated that black holes should slowly evaporate by emitting radiation – now called Hawking radiation – he also created a problem.

In the 1984 Russell Humpreys wrote the book Starlhght and Time in which he postulation that by using white holes and that the Earth could only be 6000 years old. He has also made many  creaionist assumptiions such as the Mercury'sgravitational field.

His theory  relies on Albert Einstein's thoughts, but his idea of white holes is his own.

New intelligent design feature in the ostrich - its neck makes it feel cool in the heat

 

New intelligent design feature in the ostrich - its neck makes it feel cool in the heat.

But this is what the New Scientist says:  "It may have evolved partially as an adaptation to wildly variable climatic conditions."

This is in contrast to what we know of intelligent design in which some details cannot be explained away by trusting in the evolutionary standards such as mutations  and natural selestion,

What do grasshoppers eat? Scientists have discovered that they have similarities between their teeth and mammalian teeth, ,

As Chris Stockey, the leader of  anew study, puts it;  “mouthparts of mammals and grasshoppers have evolved independently for 400 million years, and were not present in their common ancestor.”

 

This brings us down to convergent evolution, if species that don’t resemble each other, some scientist might take a strait that looks like the other as  convergent evolution.

Actually, the convergent in evolution means there is no evolution at all,

Why do bords either fly or protect themselves from harm with their weapons?.

 “Beetles do it, deer do it, even beetles do it, deer do it, even crabs in the sea do it. But birds don’tdo it.,  

Very few  birds have weapons. .

“ To answer that, the researchers ran a number of simulations and models, which showed that bony spurs could impose a heavy evolutionary cost. While it’s true that weapons, like plumage, dancing and the ability to sing helps attract a mate and so are an advantage in sexual selection, the spurs make flying a more energy-intensive activity. ” 

The question might be answered. God never wantef birds to be killers,, even in a post Fall world, they are mostly peaceful.

Evolutionists believe that octopuses brains may have become complex the same way human brains did

 For Darwinists, the octopus is a hard a hard´s nut to crack, They assume that octopuses have alien genes, and that some of them might live on Jupiter’s moon Europa.  

Some believe that octopuses genome abounds in transposons or transposable elements (TEs). Also known as jumping genes, they can move from one place to another within the genome.

When describing the octopus, journalists tend to run out of superlatives. A writer in Nature described it as an eight-legged marvel and another used the expressions octopus ballet and uncanny intelligence.

Few animals can match its intelligence.

Jumping genes move about in the part of the genome once dismissed as junk. Some believe that octopuses genome abounds in transposons or transposable elements (TEs).

Emu inspire robot uses less energy to run

 

Joel Kontinen

How do you make a robot run faster?

The solution is to use emu type legs. For instance,  “Alexander Badri-Spröwitz at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, and his colleagues have done away with the usual approach where every joint in a robotic limb” has that resembles the gait of an emu.

Emus are fast runners and giving their ability to robots makes the robots super fast. . 

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.

Scientist do not know how we got our moon

Scientist do not know how we got our moon,

 Secular Moon origin hypotheses have not fared well recently.

And the ones that do make it into headlines rely too much on fiction and speculation.

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.

In other words, the Moon looks designed to maintain life on Earth.

The origin of the Moon is a naturalistic dilemma.

Now, a  computer simulation that traces the moon’s formation in high resolution may explain the mystery of why it is so chemically similar to Earth.

The conventional story for the moons origin  is that a primordial planet named Theia smashed into Earth and spewed molten rock into space. This debris, primarily made up of Theia, then coalesced into the moon over what Darwinist believe in tens of millions of years.

Intelligent design in Science which featues dynen and kinesin

Hardly a week goes by without a paper on molecular machines being published in a major science journal. Recently, Science published a study on dynein and kinesin walk their way in our genome.

Fine-tuning is very much evident in its walk: dynein, which transports cargo by walking along a microtubule.

 This is what science says about the walkers: :  .

Controlling the long-range movement of molecules is challenging. cells use molecular motors such as dynein and kinesin and cytoskeletal features such as microtubules to achieve active transport over long distances relative to cargo sizes. taking inspiration from these natural systems, ibusuki et al. outfitted the motor protein dynein with a dna-binding module that enables it to grab onto and move along an engineered dna track  this system is attractive because the dna track can adopt precisely designed structures, and the dna-binding module creates specificity for different sequences. using these features, the authors created sorters that could separate cargos between two tracks and integrators that could bring together two streams of cargos. the average speed of the engineered motors is about 220 nanometers per second, comparable to some molecular motors in the cell. 

A kinesin motor does practically the same thing, but in the opposite or plus-end direction. Both the dynein and kinesin suggest that our cells work in anything but a haphazard way.

In other words, fine-tuning and amazing design are evident from start to finish.

Elephant seals know how to navigate home

Many animals have the courage to find their way home. now scientist have seen that they have mental maps for returning home This was initially found in birds, and then in  other species,

They seemed to know on “how far away they are – displaying an impressive sense of geography.”.

Research in Current Biology tells us that the Elephant  seals “between 2004 and 2015, Roxanne Beltran at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and her colleagues tagged and tracked 108 adult female elephant seals that bred on a beach. Once pregnant, female elephant seals leave their breeding beaches and migrate into the north-east Pacific Ocean to search for food. They spend around 240 days at sea and travel roughly 10,000 kilometres before returning to their breeding beaches to give birth..”.

This shows that the animals have a hidden source of intelligent design that cannot be brought by evolution, only the one created them could do the trick,

Artifical intelligence can never tell us how we got life

Evolutionists believe that lifebegan all by itself, by Darwinian processes.  For Darwinists, this is the biggest question they can pose.

“In the 1950s, chemists Stanley Miller and Harold Urey put a mixture of chemicals in a sealed jar and showed that amino acids, a key ingredient in living things, could be formed spontaneously.”

But that did not show how life began. it does not show how the molecules they produced formed a self-replicating system.

Now, “chemists are interested in trying to recreate the moment that inanimate chemistry turned into the simplest possible life.“

But since life only comes from life and intelligence.  Life without God is simply untenable. .

Stonehenge was an ancient calendar

Researchers have thought that Stonehenge was a monument to tell the time .  Now they suppose that it could have functioned like the solar calendar used in ancient Egypt. with a year oF  of 365.25 days.

Most of the stones were quarried from the same location 25 kilometres away.

Many people tend to think that ancient men could not have been as clever as we are. This is in keeping with the Darwinian idea that humans evolved very gradually from ape-like creatures and learning was a slow hit-or-miss affair. They were not expected to accomplish much intellectually.

However, the pyramids, Stonehenge and other ancient monuments and devices tell an entirely different kind of story. -

We should not be surprised that archaeology is revealing a trend seen in Genesis. The early chapters of the Bible indicate that already at the dawn of history, humans were able to smelt and refine metals (Genesis 4:22), just a few generations after creation.

Tapa, jolla valo heijastuu Morpho-sudenkoretojen kirkkaan sinisistä siivistä, auttaa hyönteisiä sulautumaan veteen ylhäältä katsottuna, jolloin ne ovat näkymättömiä petoeläimille ja saaliille.

Kun katsotaan kiiltävää, vetistä taustaa vasten, hyönteiset voivat kadota. Keski- ja Pohjois-Etelä-Amerikasta kotoisin olevilla urospuolisilla Morpho-sudenkoreoilla (Zenithoptera lanei) on siivet, jotka tuottavat voimakkaan värin käyttämällä erityisiä kerrosrakenteita, jotka muuttavat valon heijastusta niiden pinnasta. Urossudenkorennot käyttävät siipiään välkkyvissä seurustelunäytöksissä houkutellakseen puolisoitaan.

Sudenkorennoilla on siivissään häiveteknologiaa, jota käytetään esimerkiksi sotilaskoneissa. 

Biomimetiikasta eli luonnossa olevien asioiden jäljittelystä on tullut aikamme kärkitiedettä.

Tutkijat ovat myös löytäneet käyttöä majavan turkille, kissan viiksille, linnun siiville, vedenpuhdistin suoraan luonnosta, keihäsrauskulle, fiksu kasville, kerää joka kosteutta ilmasta ja hirvittävästä moolokista, joka nostaa kosteutta kuivasta maasta.
