 The study of neanderthal children was published by Eduardo Mayoral, a paleontologist at the University of Huelva and lead author of the study, online March 11 in the journal Scientific Reports. 

In 2020, two biologists discovered the tracks on Matalascañas beach, in Doñana National Park after a period of intense storms and high tides

 Of particular interest are the two smallest footprints, approximately 14 centimetres, or6 inches long that are thought to have been made by a child about 6 years old. 

Neanderthals were the ape men of the late 18th century and early 19th century, but scientists have re-invented the category, According to creationists, the Neanderthals were the post.flood descendants oF Noah, 

In the model based on Genesis, Neanderthals are descendants of Noah.

They mostly lived in caves during the harsh ice age winters after the global flood, but they obviously also knew how to sail.

Evolution shaped these creatures into awesome, breathtakingly efficient flyers, says University of Portsmouth professor

The pterosaur is an enigma for evolution, They were almost too heavy to fly, 

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.

But now the evolutionists ave found a unique structure that gives them the power of flight.

 Pterosaurs aren't dinosaurs, but lived alongside them after emerging during the late Triassic period, about 225 million years ago, until they vanished from the fossil record at the end of it,

Some Evolutionists Believe That The Earth Lost All Oxygen Ages Ago

Some evolutionists think that the Earth lost nearly all of its oxygen ages ago, They think that a halting process that took 100 million years longer than they previously believed.

At its begIning, 4,5 millions years ago, the atmosphere contained almost no oxygen,  But 2.43 billion years ago, something happened

Oxygen levels started rising, then falling, accompanied by massive changes in climate, including several glaciations that may have ccovered the entire Earth wIth ice, 

This is contrary to the view  that the Earth makes its waters itself.

It would be easy to solve the problem by giving up the belief in millions of years.

There’s a place in Idaho, that evolutionists do not want you to hear about.  It is the nesting place of leaves purported to be 16 million years old, but they still contain DNA.

The leaves contain their colour, odour and even the DNA . They cannot be millions of years old, The author Bruce Malone  says that there as old as Noah’s Flood that occur only thousands of years ago.

Evolutionists claim there's life on Mars

NASA-s Prrseverance is the fifth rover that humans have landed on Mars. It means that the quest for life’s origin – except by God – is still on. People want to believe that they were produced by evolution. This rover on the lookout for signs of life,  meaning that is life grew without God’s guidance.

“One of the most interesting aspects of Perseverance’s work is choosing a selection of rocks that might contain traces of ancient life and preparing them for a return journey to Earth”  “

And it is” choosing a selection of rocks that might contain traces of ancient life and preparing them for a return journey to Earth."

God created Earth to teem with various kinds of life, but as far as we know, there’s none on Mars.

Paleobiologist Alida Bailleul from the Chinese Academy of Science has become the woman who believes she could be the oldest partially intact DNA ever found in a specimen of the dinosaur Hypacrosaurus..

Now, according to evolution, dinosaurs have to be at least 65 million years old. However, The dinos they sequenced was between 74 and 80 million years old. Actually, dinosaurs DNA and soft tissue  that they were living just recently.

Earlier this year,  scientists announced they'd sequenced DNA from a 1.2-million-year-old mammoth tooth. But it is a long jump to dinosaurs.

Spider legs build webs without the brain’s help – providing a model for future robot limbs

Emeritos Professor Fritz Vollrath of the University Of Oxford has shown that in a study with his collegue Thiemo Krink, spider legs build webs without the brain’s help, which would be a model for future robots.

"Arachnophobes often cite spiders’ unpredictable movement as the basis of their fear, pointing out how each spindly leg seems to lift, flex and probe with a menacing degree of autonomy.

Perhaps unsettlingly, my colleague Thiemo Krink and I have conducted research that reveals that each one of a spider’s legs does indeed enjoy a certain independence from the brain – especially in the complex task of web-building.

Our study has shown that spider legs have “minds of their own”, constructing webs without the oversight of the spider’s brain. This has important implications for the field of robotics, which may take inspiration from this example of decentralised intelligence to build similarly autonomous robot limbs."

 In their study Krink and Vollrath  “observed the common garden spider Araneus diadematus, a creature familiar to us all – both suspended in our back yards.”

 The Roboticists call this tactic  morphological computing. According to vollrath, the common garden spider has been using this for over a hundred million years.
