Editors have many reasons to pay more attention to retraction and correction notices. For one, scientists often cite papers after they’ve been retracted, and a clear, unambiguous note explaining why the findings are no longer valid might help to reduce that. But, more importantly, a vaguely worded note that includes further claims from researchers whose work has been seriously questioned, in turn raises questions about the integrity of the journal itself, and about the overall scientific record. — Adam Marcus and Ivan Oransky, Nature (480, 22 December 2011, pp. 449-450.
Thank you for your site. I have thoroughly enjoyed it for a few years now and find it an awesome resource. — a pastor in the arctic circle
But I do know that satire is never more necessary than when reality and rationality are under attack. You can't refute claims rooted in relativism, where truth itself is a moving target. You can't reason with people who've abandoned rationality on purpose. But you can—and, indeed, you must—ridicule their bad ideas. Nothing, after all, undercuts lunacy and lies like laughter. — Seth Dillon, CEO of The Babylon Bee (World Magazine, 3 Dec 2022, p.50)

On January 31, 2018, our Creation Scientist of the Month, at age 90, celebrated the 60th anniversary of Explorer 1: America’s first satellite. He was not only present at Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) on the historic day of January 31, 1958, he was a key figure in its success. Dr Henry Richter managed the satellite, its instruments, and its ground communications, and was the first to confirm that it had reached orbit.
This was before America even had a space agency. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was formed as a result of the success of the Explorer satellites, which had imbued Americans with a renewed sense of pride after the Russians had beaten them to space with Sputnik 1 (October 4, 1957) and Sputnik 2 (November 3, 1957). Richter continued advancing space technology as America began the race to the moon. But his own trajectory would not be smooth. Henry Richter (not to be confused with Charles Richter of ‘Richter Scale’ fame) would experience a series of mishaps and failures before understanding the true secret of success. Along the way, he would also find satisfying explanations for the amazing designs he grew to appreciate on his own vessel: ‘Spacecraft Earth.’
January 31, 2008On this day 50 years ago, America entered the space race. On January 31, 1958, America gave its answer to Sputnik: a civilian satellite named Explorer 1. Within a few hours of the time of day these words are being written, von Braun’s Jupiter-C rocket at Cape Canaveral, Florida, successfully launched a JPL satellite into […]

Theories for the origin of life (OOL) are in a crisis, unable to imagine how something as complex as a replicating cell could come into existence. Could PNA do it?
