An icon of ICR during the early years was Chief Financial Officer Don Rohrer who was recently ushered into Glory.

I first met Don in 1995 while applying to be an ICR speaker and scientist. With a big smile, he grabbed my hand and squeezed it as he introduced himself.

A team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) used NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) to discover a gas giant in another solar system. The planet holds a new record for being a hot Jupiter-like exoplanet with the shortest year.¹

Dr. David Menton, biologist, award-winning professor, and respected creation scientist, went home to be with the Lord this Saturday morning.¹ Dr. Menton’s expert knowledge of anatomy enabled him to eviscerate claims of “missing links” between men and apes. In the early years of ICR, Dr. Menton was a long-time member of ICR’s technical advisory board.

The Coconino Sandstone, famously exposed near the top of Grand Canyon’s splendid sedimentary layers, remains a controversial rock. Two counterclaims vie for its origin. If wind formed the Coconino’s now-hardened sand dunes, then the whole region must have been dry land exposed to the air—unlike the Bible’s portrayal of a worldwide Flood.

Scientists are still trying to out-do each another by finding the biggest dinosaur.
