By kpennock On this episode of ID the Future, Zombie Science author Jonathan Wells talks about his multifaceted, impressive and, at times, quirky educational history.

To prevent water-logging, the wood must be treated, to make it waterproof. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments Outer space has a temperature. It has become common to think of space as a vacuum, that has nothing in it, which means it would be at absolute zero temperature. In fact, space is nearly a vacuum, but not quite.
