Late Heavy Bombardment Slows to a Trickle
Evidence for an early period of intense meteoritic impacts on Earth continues to grow. From 4.1 to 3.8 billion years ago, these events would have regularly sterilized Earth’s surface. Recent research indicates that, although the rate of the sterilizing events dropped significantly, they continued at a slow pace until 550 million years ago. This research … Read more

TNRTB Classic: Skeletons in the Cambrian Explosion
A few days ago, I wrote about a recent discovery that highlights the challenge that specific features of the Cambrian explosion pose for the evolutionary paradigm. This discovery is not the first of its kind. Over the last couple of decades a number of findings call attention to the difficulties the Cambrian explosion creates for … Read more

Pikaia Fossils Explode the Evolutionary Paradigm
A recent campaign by the Royal Ontario Museum to collect more fossils from the Burgess Shale site in the Canadian Rockies has added to the number of fossil specimens of a highly enigmatic creature called Pikaia gracilens. Taking advantage of the new fossils, two paleontologists interpreted Pikaia to be a member of the phylum Chordata. … Read more

TNRTB Classic: Searching for Dark Energy
Earlier this week, I commented on dark energy’s impact on the fine-tuning argument for a Creator. For years, astronomers have hoped for direct detection of dark energy and the other dark “stuff” of the universe. Below is a link to RTB articles that have tracked with this exciting research for almost a decade. “RTB’s Dark … Read more

Honing in on Dark Energy Design
The Supernova Cosmology Project has achieved the most precise measurement of the universe’s dark energy density. The team’s measurements also yield the strongest evidence yet that a cosmological constant provides the best explanation for dark energy. Increasingly accurate measurements of the quantity and character of dark energy provide an ever-stronger case for the supernatural design … Read more

TNRTB Classic: Awesome Science
On Monday I profiled four discoveries that, while they may not have an apologetics application, are just too cool or interesting to ignore. I’ve covered other such findings in previous TNRTB posts. Check out these articles for more fun scientific discoveries. “Cool Discoveries, Part 1” “Cool Discoveries, Part 2” “Cool Discoveries, Part 3”

More Cool Discoveries
Occasionally research shows up that may not have any immediate apologetics interest but falls into the “too-cool” category. This installment includes cave formations that track past earthquakes (and possibly predict future ones), light-harvesting hornet shells, a clock accurate to one second every million years, and self-healing, autonomous materials. **** Earthquake Trackers Over the past few … Read more

Article Highlight: An Old-Earth Creation Model for the Origin of Humanity
What is it to be human? This is an important question. Perhaps it is the most important question we could ever ask. The answer has profound and wide-ranging implications. In many respects, this question can’t be adequately addressed unless we examine a more fundamental question, “Where do humans come from?” In the West, influenced by … Read more

Did God Create Using Evolutionary Processes?
American botanist Asa Gray was one of the first scientists in the United States to adopt and promote Darwin’s theory of biological evolution. Gray was also an orthodox Christian, who saw no conflict between a history of life on Earth that was the outworking of evolutionary processes and the Christian faith. Gray was perhaps one … Read more

TNRTB Classic: Oxygenation Events
Humans and other large-bodied organisms, even some single-celled organisms, require free oxygen for survival. For most of Earth’s history, all the planet’s oxygen was locked away in other compounds. Around 2.5 billion years ago, oxygen established a more permanent foothold (with some instability) in the atmosphere, and it rose to current values around half-a-billion years … Read more
