Answering a correspondent who asked for an explanation of the colours of the sky.
Naturalism has many problems in explaining both stars and any planets around them.
How awesome is the world in which we live! The atmosphere is remarkably designed for sustaining life, and one that beautifies creation.
Can the biblical framework offer a better account for the data?
Most all school children can recite the planets in our solar system using memory devices such as: “My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Names” or “My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Noodles” (Pluto may be added at the end of each mnemonic). In researching our solar system, Copernicus (1473-1543) determined that our sun was near the center of our solar system, rather than the Earth itself. Johannes Kepler… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Scientists recently demonstrated that infalling particles from Saturn’s rings are the most likely source of a previously unaccounted-for excess of ultraviolet radiation emitted from the planet’s atmosphere. This discovery utilized data collected from the Voyager I and Cassini spacecrafts, as well as the Hubble Space Telescope. 1,2 This is a reminder that Saturn’s rings are short-lived. At the rate at … More… …read more Source: icr.org
Despite the moon’s apparently simple shape, uniformitarian scientists have long had great difficulty explaining how it could form by natural processes apart from a supernatural Creator. One Harvard astrophysicist once quipped that the best explanation for the moon’s existence was observational error—the moon doesn’t really exist!1 Yet, the moon does exist, and its existence demands an explanatio… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham Did you know that evolutionary scientists can’t explain where space, time, matter, and energy came from? You might think, “Yes they have—the big bang!” But, by their own admission, the big bang model doesn’t tell us anything about how everything came from nothing. Rather, this model seeks to explain what happened immediately after the supposed big bang. That’s why a recent headline proclaimed, “The Big Bang says nothing about the creation of the cosmos.” The article accompanying that headline states, We are often told that the Big Bang is a theory of cosmic creation — that it

By Ken Ham I recently wrote a blog about an “impossible” new ring system scientists discovered in our solar system and how this ring system is challenging evolutionary assumptions about the formation of planets. Well, two weeks later, headlines proclaimed the discovery of another evolutionary problem, this time describing a “forbidden” planet that “shouldn’t exist.” An article summarizing this new discovery states, Scientists have discovered a huge Jupiter-sized planet orbiting a very small star, a combination described as “forbidden” by one researcher because it challenges theories about how planets form, reports a new study. Yes, yet again, the evolutionary ideas

Aside from appreciating the splendor of the sun during a beautiful sunrise or sunset, many rarely consider how special, necessary, and finely tuned our sun is to support life on Earth. Like the hub of a wheel, our sun plays an essential role in the activity of our solar system and Earth’s unique ability to support life. The sun exhibits an intricate design, a delicate balance, and displays the incredible intelligence of its Designer.<… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham Planetary rings, like those encircling Saturn or Jupiter, are a beautiful feature of the heavens. And a brand-new ring system was recently discovered, wrapping around Quaoar, a dwarf planet half the size of Pluto and located past Neptune. This brings the number of ringed objects in our solar system to seven. And—like the rings surrounding Saturn—this planet’s rings are also a challenge to what’s referred to by evolutionists as “ring formation theories.” The rings of Quaoar don’t follow the “rules” of the evolutionary paradigm! According to evolutionists, planetary rings formed when “collisions of moonlets orbiting the parent

By Ken Ham Ever since the James Webb Space Telescope was launched on Christmas Day, 2021, astronomers have been eagerly poring over beautiful new images of the stars, galaxies, and more in deep outer space for insights into our universe, particularly its supposed origins. And one particular object which evolutionary astronomers are desperate to find is a so-called “first generation” star. What Are “First Generation” Stars? Now, what do they mean by a “first generation” star? Well, the big bang idea supposedly only produced the three lightest elements—hydrogen, helium, and trace amounts of lithium. But there are 100 or so

Data obtained by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) continue to challenge expectations of Big Bang proponents.1,2 The JWST is designed to “see” in the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, just outside the range of visible light. Since redshifts3 ‘push’ most of the light from distant galaxies into the infrared part of the spectrum, the JWST can obtain better images of t… More… …read more Source: icr.org

The InSight robotic lander found evidence in the interior of Mars for the existence of an active giant mantle plume, a large blob of molten rock that is rising, not unlike a wax blob in a 1970s-era lava lamp.1,2 The presence of an active mantle plume surprised mainstream scientists because they thought Mars was more-or-less dead, geologically speaking. Planetary scientist Jeff Andrews-Hanna said, More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham When you think of a pale blue dot hanging in the vast nothingness of space, I doubt you picture our celestial neighbor, Mars. After all, Mars is nicknamed “the red planet” (and rightly so!). So why did a recent article refer to Mars as “a pale blue dot”? The evidence for water on Mars is so strong, many planetary scientists believe it was once subject to a global, or near global, flood! Well, there’s abundant evidence, such as river channels and ancient shorelines, that Mars was once a much more watery place, perhaps even “warm and wet.”
