Science General Discussion

[Raven]

I love the discovery channel. and they do bring in real scientist, so it's not like they should completely disregarded. But they may not structure their shows the way a university would their classes.

That Ancient Aliens guy... not even remotely any kind of authority on anything related to space.

The dude went to school for sports information and communication. He was a body builder promoter. Then about 10 years ago he started essentially preaching that aliens were a part of early human development and got involved with associations, with questionable scientific backgrounds, that promoted this idea. The dude is basically a quack.

Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Michio Kaku are good though. 
On a related note, google is so funny.

Lol, well I don't think anyone takes that show too seriously but it does raise some interesting what ifs.

The interesting what if is what would happen if you were allowed to reproduce.

Not a lot of naughtiness, huh? :/

[Legend]

There was one episode of AE where they kept finding examples in the bible and art of the Earth being round instead of flat.

"The people back then thought it was flat, so aliens must have told them the truth!"


The truth actually is that the Earth being round was common knowledge for thousands of years.

[Mmm_fish_tacos]

No. It flat out lies most of the time.

What do they lie about? Other besides his theories are out there.
