As any followers of the “Tabbi's Star” controversy will tell you, put “aliens” in a media release and you're bound to get the clicks. So it was over the weekend when the Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific accepted a paper claiming to have identified 234 stars out of a couple of million whose signatures show “periodic spectral modulations”. Even before the latest “we've found aliens” story hit, the SETI Institute had expressed reservations about the claims made in this paper..>> view originalPlaying havoc with fish brain
Climate change may impair survival instincts of fish and can make them swim towards theirpredators, according to a new study which found that high levels of carbon dioxide disrupts their sense of smell,hearing and vision.According to the scientists at University of Exeter in the UK, these abnormal behaviours have been linked to the effect of carbon dioxide (CO2) on how the brain processes signals from sensory organs.High CO2 levels can impair the way fish behave making them swim towards predato..>> view originalStudy finds that the universe may not be expanding at accelerating rate

Its All Hot Air
Watching the Australian Government try to navigate the difficult shoals of energy policy in the 21st century is like watching a ship adrift without a compass, or perhaps a map provided by the fossil fuel industry back in 1950. While major emitters in Europe, North America and Asia are setting out structured plans to transition their economies away from the dirty, polluting energy sources of the 19th and 20th centuries - coal, oil and gas - the Australian Government appears to be engaging in a..>> view originalJapan's 'Scientific' Whaling Program Sucks
Once again, the International Whaling Commission (IWC) has attempted to create a South Atlantic sanctuary for whales. And once again, it has been thwarted by a pro-whaling coalition led by Nordic nations and Japan — which, in blatant disregard of the UN’s International Court, continues to slaughter whales by the thousands for bullshit “scientific research” purposes.
