About 3,000 years ago, the Bible taught that the “wonders in the deep” are the “works of the Lord.”¹ Now that truth has been illustrated with even greater depth by the documented sighting of a super-deep-sea octopus—about 21,000 feet deep at the ocean’s bottom, to be specific.^2,3

A new study published in the journal Gondwana Research has identified a rather out-of-place bone from a theropod dinosaur called an elaphrosaur that apparently didn’t eat meat.¹ In fact, it was toothless.

It’s springtime in New England—an important season for maple syrup production.

The maple syrup season is short, only lasting between four and six weeks. The flavor of syrup can change depending on when it is gathered during that time.¹ The syrup is gathered by attaching buckets to trees with spouts sticking into the trees’ bark.

One lone elm tree survived a deadly “elm disease.”

A new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has again tried to explain a global erosional surface known as the Great Unconformity.¹ This boundary surface marks a major gap in the rock record between Precambrian rocks below and younger sedimentary rocks above.
