When: December 27, 1571 - November 15, 1630
Where: Born in Weil der Stadt, Württemburg, Holy Roman Empire, of German nationality
Johannes Kepler developed a love for astronomy at an early age. He observed the Great Comet of 1577 when he was six and the 1580 Lunar Eclipse, events that no doubt fueled his curiosity and enthusia... More...

Nature and Nature's laws lay hid in night:
God said, Let Newton be! and all was light.1
Sir Isaac Newton, perhaps the most influential scientist of all time, came from very humble beginnings. The Jul... More...
Astronomers have discovered an earth-sized exoplanet, designated TOI-2431 b, that is so close to its host star that it completes a full orbit in just 5 hours and 22 minutes.1,2 Or, to put it another way, this planet’s year is less than six hours long! Astronomers designate exoplanets having orbital periods less than one Earth day long as ultra-short period (USP) exoplanets. Out of the approximately 6,000 known exoplanets, a... More...
Biofluorescence is a phenomenon in which creatures—plant or animal—absorb light at a certain wavelength and release or emit it at a different wavelength. The light from the animal becomes a different color from the light that was absorbed.
In 2020, ICR’s Dr. Jeff Tomkins discussed biofluorescence in the platypus, of all animals.
Biofluorescence is a glow-in-the-dark phenomen... More...
Recently, University of Kansas paleontologists discovered a fossil of what they think is a “near-marsupial.”1 It is called Swaindelphys and was found in Big Bend National Park, Texas. Conventional scientists interpret Swaindelphys as a large extinct possum.
The two researchers involved in this discovery stated in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology,

An allegedly vital piece of animal evolution was first discovered in 1984 in Scotland. Conventional scientists suggested the fossil of Westlothiana lizziae, a lizard-like reptile, is an example of an early stem tetrapod.
However, due to the fragmentary nature of the W. lizziae fossil, some evolutionists are unsure of Westlothiana’s phylogenetic (evolutionary) position. Regardless, a SciTechDaily a... More...
