The naked eye allows us to see just a little of God’s heavenly handiwork, but even this little bit clearly declares God’s glory.1 As more powerful telescopes peer deeper into space, more and more reasons to question the secular origins story accumulate. Recently, astronomers were surprised by very distant spiral galaxies. As described in a popular science news article, “New results from an ambitious sky… More… …read more Source: icr.org
The heavens are expected to declare even more of God’s glory1 this week. Probably early Wednesday morning, the Lyrid meteor shower will peak.2 For those who are socially isolated due to the coronavirus pandemic, this event is an opportunity to enjoy a little more of God’s creation, as well as a reminder that our solar system is young. As comets approach the sun, they lose material as ices in the co… More… …read more Source: icr.org
“Were it not for the asteroid, humans would never have evolved,” said Ian Miller, curator of paleobotany and director of earth and space sciences at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.1 Such is the science of evolution that explains the origin of mankind. Miller and other evolutionists maintain the massive asteroid strike of the Yucatan peninsula (allegedly 66 million years ago) wiped out the dinosaurs… More… …read more Source: icr.org

A recent study has ruled out a possible candidate for dark matter, the mysterious invisible “stuff” said to comprise 85% of the matter in our universe.1,2 The Big Bang model needs dark matter for a number of reasons. So, this is bad news for the Big Bang model. Most secular cosmologists believe in dark matter. Some biblical creationists also think dark matter exists,3 but others (including me) are … More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham What do the star Betelgeuse, “mini-moons,” dark energy, and the big bang all have in common? They’re all topics of discussion of astronomical importance on the latest issue of Answers News, our weekly live news program. Normally, three co-hosts discuss the latest in science and culture news from a biblical perspective. But this week’s episode was a bit different. One of our regular hosts, Bodie Hodge, was joined by AiG astronomer Dr. Danny Faulkner to discuss what’s going on in astronomical research and point you back to biblical truth as it relates to the heavens, stars, moons,

Astronomers have discovered a Jupiter-sized extrasolar planet (exoplanet) orbiting so close to its host star that it is “perilously close” to the distance where it can be torn apart by gravitational forces.1-3 Astronomers call these planets “hot Jupiters” because they are rather large planets with masses comparable to that of Jupiter, and their nearness to their host stars causes them to … More… …read more Source: icr.org

First there was dark matter, then came dark energy, then dark photons and now there is talk of dark stars, dark planets and even dark intelligent life, in a whole dark galaxy within our Milky Way galaxy. However, physicists actually know nothing about dark matter and dark energy. These terms and the nebulous concepts they represent were actually invented by astrophysicists because they assumed materialism (matter and energy is all there is). They then dogmatically insisted on rigorously applying this to the origin and structure of the universe. Read More
