On January 15, 2009, NASA scientists announced what they believed could be evidence of life on the planet Mars. What they had actually found was methane in the atmosphere, a gas that can be produced by either living organisms or non-living geological processes. The origin of the methane is currently unknown, so speculation that Mars is a “living” planet is somewhat premature.

Scientists attempting to demonstrate random evolution in the laboratory have found something entirely different: evidence supporting creation.

Scientists have waited for years to study a rare and unique deep sea fish. Finally able to investigate a live specimen, they discovered that the “spookfish” has mirrors that reflect light onto its retinas. This is the only vertebrate eye known to have reflective eye lenses,¹ and their construction must have required purposeful intent.

Coconut husks, made of tough fibers, are abundant in tropical regions. Coconut farmers have most often discarded the husks, but science is finding creative ways to use them.

Pink iguanas were discovered in 1986 in the Galapagos.
