Bill Nelson, 78, the former Florida senator and spaceflight veteran, became the NASA Administrator on May 3, 2021.  One month later, Bill Nelson has directed NASA to study UFOS (or UAPs). Notably, the push comes as a much-anticipated UAP report is due to Congress. In 1986, Nelson flew on the 24th flight of the...

The woolly mammoth may have gone extinct as recently as 4,000 years ago on Wrangel Island near Alaska. However, scientists have been working diligently for years on bringing them back. In 2019, Japanese researchers made a breakthrough using 28,000-year-old DNA from Yuka, a perfectly preserved baby mammoth found on the Yukaghir coastline of Siberia in 2010.  Even though she...

One of Vladimir Putin's closest advisors, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, has announced his intentions to create an ancient clone army of ancient Scythian Horse Lords. Shoigu is from the Republic of Tuva in Siberia, where archaeologists discovered Scythian burials two decades ago. Remains of the so-called Horse Lords were...

Grass can take an "evolutionary shortcut," swiping genes from neighboring species to get an advantage. That's what University of Sheffield researchers found out in a new study. Thus, some grasses are naturally genetically modified. However, they are doing it all on their own, without carcinogenic chemicals.  Researchers found "mysterious gene transfer" in...

Scientists have learned that venomous humans could one day become real. The headline elicits the response, "Aren't they already venomous?" For example, watching politicians talk, one gets the idea that malevolent reptilians may be in government positions today. At this point, who would be surprised? But seriously, it goes back to our ancient...

The idea of air travel by sky car or flying saucer has been around for decades, with patents by Alexander Weygers and Nikola Tesla from the Roaring Twenties.  Now, numerous inventors are hoping to make the dream a reality at last, with plans for vertical takeoff and landing aircraft (VTOL) vehicles. In a...

Trees talk to each other deep underground. It's an idea still relatively new to science but familiar to ancient beliefs. Today, scientists are confirming that forests act like one big superorganism. Below the ground, fungal highways connect the trees. Through this highway, the oldest trees nurture their young. What's more,...

Penguin mummies dating back thousands of years have been discovered in Antarctica. An ornithologist from the University of North Carolina, Wilmington, Steven Emslie, has studied penguins in Antarctica for over 15 years. Over the years, he's discovered penguin remains from abandoned penguin colonies, tracing clues about climate changes. In recent years, Emslie says...

Today, we marvel at creatures such as crocodiles and Komodo Dragons, but they would be even more fearsome if they had giant heads. And it turns out that giant-headed reptiles once roamed the Earth. In the aftermath of mass extinction, apex reptilian predators with disproportionately large heads inherited dominion over...

Deep in the heart of northern Kansas, researchers excavated farmland that used to be under the ocean and ended up finding a brand new species of shark that lurked beneath the surface around 91 million years ago. During the middle to the late Cretaceous period, the region of the United...
