Geologists have used high-resolution images obtained by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter to infer the existence of past rivers on the Martian surface. Geologist Francesco Salese of Ultrecht University in the Netherlands led the team that analyzed the images of a sedimentary outcrop in the northwest rim of Hellas Planitia, an impact basin in Mars’s southern hemisphere.1,2 Geologists and planetary scientists have long… More… …read more Source: icr.org
The accurate prediction of an earthquake could potentially save thousands of lives. Everything from the study of strange animal behavior to satellites mapping changes in surface elevation have been employed to try and predict earthquakes. However, few of these methods have been shown to be reliable or accurate. Recently, a new study published in the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America has suggested that earthq… More… …read more Source: icr.org

A new study published in Nature has found that tectonic plates may change directions rapidly, or “wobble,” several months before a massive quake is released.1 Scientists are not sure why, but it may lead to a future breakthrough in earthquake predictions. Jonathan R. Bedford—from the Helmholtz Centre Potsdam, GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam, Germany—and colleagues fr… More… …read more Source: icr.org

When you first look at a hero shrew, you might wonder, “How in the world did this critter get this name?” But these little mole-like creatures are considered to be the Clark Kents of the animal world—their superpowers are hidden under humble exteriors. New research into the amazing structure and function of the hero shrew spine is revealing amazing engineering that utterly defies evolutionary speculation.1More… …read more Source: icr.org

The unique nature of the sun is causing many experts to scratch their heads. Extensive studies show that most sun-like stars demonstrate about five times the magnetic activity of our sun. Others reveal that the stars most similar to our sun vary in brightness about twelve times more than the sun in a given solar cycle.1,2 In other words, the sun in our solar system is much more stable than other similar st… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Recently, geologist Harry S. Pettingill has found that deepwater oil and gas fields may be more environmentally friendly than first thought.1 In this day and age of trying to find an energy source that makes the smallest environmental impact, we may have overlooked a solution right below our feet…or actually, deep beneath the ocean. Heather Saucier summarized Pettingill’s findings in the April issue of The AAPG Exp… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Springtime, in many places—especially Texas—is a very active time for birds.1 Nests are built. Mating and egg incubation leads to raising hatchlings. Before long, those hatchlings become fledglings. Bird life goes on—birds are fruitful, multiply, and fill their special niches on Earth.2 Due to migration patterns, many birds stay in Texas during the winter and migrate north before spring is fi… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham “Pillars of Creation” is the name given to an iconic photograph of a vast region within the Eagle Nebula, a cloud of dust and gas seven thousand light years from earth. Secular astronomers consider these nebulas to be the birthplace of stars. A recent article, reflecting on an updated infrared version of the Pillars of Creation photo, claims the tops of these pillars will disappear as baby stars grow. According to God’s Word, stars didn’t form slowly and gradually from “protostars” in nurseries. They were formed at God’s command when “he made the stars also” (Genesis 1:16).

A Newcastle University press release title reads, “Origins of language pathway in the brain at least 25 million years old.”1 How can science measure the origins of brain pathways that supposedly happened so long before scientists could observe them? And how defensible is the 25 million-year figure? Two unscientific assumptions unwittingly deflate this title’s confident tone. The research team used macaq… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Wisdom teeth crowd most mouths. We no longer use these teeth, so why do they take up space in the backs of our jaws? Back in 2008, the Wall Street Journal ran an article titled “Smart Riposte to Intelligent Design.” It had claimed that wisdom teeth are “a direct challenge…to intelligent design.”1 How ironic that a 2020 article in the notoriously atheistic Scientific American More… …read more Source: icr.org
Recently, a new study published in Nature Communications found that mountain streams may be much larger contributors to the global carbon cycle than previously believed.1 The study suggests that this is a consequence of the higher turbulence levels of most mountain streams.

Bats have been in the news lately,1 but bats themselves are not new—they were created on Day 5 of Creation Week, along with other flying creatures. Bats are a large and fascinating group of flying mammals. They include 1,240 species. Not surprisingly, the fossil record shows bats have always been bats. They suddenly appear in a most un-Darwinian manner. According to a recent evolutionary publication,… More… …read more Source: icr.org

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
A piece of string about 6 millimeters long is threatening standard evolutionary theory about the history of humanity. The BBC reported that researchers from the United States, France, and Spain recently discovered a small piece of string at a Neanderthal site in France.1 The researchers say that the string is approximately 50,000 years old. According to evolutionary theory, Neanderthals were a relatively r… More… …read more Source: icr.org
