The amazing octopus continues to astonish scientists. “Octopuses are highly intelligent creatures,” says Claire Little, a marine biologist at the Weymouth Sealife Center in southwest England. “They are classed as intelligent as the general home pet dog.” Scientists recently sequenced the octopus’ genome and found it’s nearly the size of the human genome.

Researchers have uncovered scientific evidence that the human brain recognizes the existence of God. Scientists have discovered that the reality of God is hardwired into the human brain — even by those who are not taught directly taught about Him — according to new research divulged by National Geographic. Global Neuroscience Initiative Foundation Executive Director Shaheen E. Lakhan, who holds numerous doctorate degrees, including an M.D. from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, contends that something that has been revealed by the Bible for millennia is now recognized by modern science.

Namib desert beetles collect faint water droplets on their exquisitely designed outer surfaces so they can survive in their dry environments. And polar bears keep a tight grip on smooth ice using precisely designed footpads. Engineers have copied these exquisite designs to make useful tools. More… …read more Read more here: icr.org

The Deep Down Under project explores “relict faunas,” living creatures with eerily similar counterparts among some of the world’s oldest fossils. Deep-sea researchers used a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) to look for life around Osprey Reef off Queensland’s coast. They found some surprises including animals known only from faraway places and long-gone times. More… …read more Read more here: icr.org

“Here is another marvel of complexity in nature that we are supposed to believe just happened by chance … ridiculous.” Admin By By David Gutierrez, staff writer (NaturalNews) Scientists are beginning to uncover the mechanisms by which plants — which depend upon sunlight to provide them with energy — protect themselves from the damaging effects of the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Most recently, in a study published in the Journal of the American… …read more Read more here: Natural News

Whoever said the human brain is the most highly organized collection of matter in the universe was more correct than they could have known. New research modeled tiny structures within nerve cells and discovered a clever tactic brains use to increase computing power while maximizing energy efficiency. Its design could form the basis of a whole new and improved class of computer. More… …read more Read more here: icr.org
In complete contradiction to evolutionary predictions, the language systems in the genome continue to reveal nothing but unimaginable complexity.

Increasingly, orphan genes defy evolution and support the Genesis account of creation. These genes are unique sets of coding sequences specific to particular creatures. This is a big problem for evolutionary ideas to explain. In a recent research report, scientists describe a new set of 1,307 orphan genes that are completely different between humans and chimpanzees.

Many zoologists consider cuttlefish to be the most intelligent invertebrate species, which is quite a problem from an evolutionary perspective. Evolutionists view intelligence evolving through social interactions and long lifespans. But cuttlefish are cephalopods. They don’t have a complex social structure and live only about a year—the lifespan of a butterfly. How did cuttlefish become so bright? More… …read more Read more here: icr.org
Researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center discovered a gene called NORAD that, unlike protein-coding genes, makes a long functional RNA that works directly in the cell’s nucleus. NORAD helps preserve the correct number of chromosomes in cells (e.g. 46 for humans). Conversely, the cellular chromosome number becomes unbalanced when the NORAD gene goes awry, a common trait in cancerous cells. Could the NORAD gene aid cancer research?

Incredible lens engineering in an ‘early’ creature. Trilobites, described by Stephen Jay Gould as ‘everyone’s favourite invertebrate fossil,’ are a class of marine arthropods which are often well preserved and of striking appearance.1,2 They are believed to be extinct. They are mostly between 10 and 50 mm long (3/8 to two inches) although a few species attained a length of 750 mm (2 1/2 feet). Trilobites are characterized by a ridged carapace, or shell, made of chitin, divided into three lobes which give the class its name. While most trilobites had eyes, a number had none. A common
