Interdependence: A Conversation Starter

Don't Grand Canyon Rocks Showcase Deep Time?


Engineered Chemical Could Cost Less, Save Lives

Three researchers from the California Institute of Technology recently made a breakthrough in developing a molecule that mimics plants’ nitrogen chemistry—processes that are needed to synthesize fertilizer in a more cost-efficient way that will also avoid disasters like the April 2013 fertilizer facility explosion in West, Texas.


Water in Rocks May Support Moon's Bible Origins

Is there water in moon rocks? There shouldn't be, according to secular accounts of the moon's origins. But now, decades after Apollo missions returned to Earth with moon rocks, scientists at The Open University in the UK have reported that minerals in these rocks hold water remnants.1 Could this lunar water support the biblical account of moon origins?

For example, if one leg hopped a bit sooner or with slightly greater force than the other, the insect would just fling itself sideways. Good thing tiny gears synchronize their hind legs.
