This past summer, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) addressed the subject of origins in the five-part television series Evolution.1 Not too surprisingly, the possibility of supernatural creation was completely ignored. The United States Corporation for Public Broadcasting is in the process of airing these five episodes, with some possible variations from the BBC versions. The first United States episode, “Br...

Conventional scenarios fall short in explaining the origin of moons within our solar system. Recent computer simulations have strengthened the argument that these moons, particularly the moons of Saturn, were supernaturally created not that long ago.
Scientists think many moons within our solar system, including Saturn’s moons Enceladus (see figure above) and Mimas, may have hidden oceans of liquid water within their interi... More...
The human heart does not beat like a perfect clock. The time between beats changes as the body breathes, moves, rests, and reacts to the world around it. New research shows that these changes are part of a feedback system linking the heart, brain, and nerves.1 The heart keeps a steady rhythm while remaining flexible when needed, much like a well-built control system.
Denis Noble has studied heart rhythm for many years.... More...
Blood vessels do more than carry blood. As tissue grows or heals, new vessels must form in the right place and direction, through a process called angiogenesis. Recent experiments with human endothelial cells show that mechanical force can help guide this growth. The findings reveal a responsive control system in which cells sense physical strain and adjust vessel growth without losing their basic function.1

The incredible hummingbird hawkmoth (Macroglossum stellatarum), and other insects of the Lepidoptera order, continue to amaze entomologists.1,2 The hawkmoth has recently been studied in order to learn more about the sensory information used to control its long proboscis, a tubular protrusion that can be inserted into flowers like the beak and tongue of the hummingbird.
As scientists watched the insect feed from ... More...
An engineer can list every part in a system and still miss how it works. Think of a radio. Its parts matter, but so does the wiring that joins them. The same is true in living cells. A July 2026 study of immune cells found that cell function depends not only on genes and proteins, but also on how those parts are linked.
The study, published in Nature Communications, looked at T follicular helper (Tfh) cells. These immune c... More...
