Don't worry. I know what you mean by scientific facts.read my post if you are too stupid to remember what I said. lol
Scientists have filled volumes in scientific libraries full of scientific speculations and theories, but few irrefutably proven facts. Take dinosaur extintion theoris for example. For nearly 40 years science textb ooks in school claimed an asteroid hit in the yuccan Penusal cause d the massive extinction event. More recent discoveries have proven that theory to be erroneous.
First, in the late 1990s researchers shocked the scientific world by discovering soft tissues in dinosaur bones, a total impossibility If the bones had been tens of millions of years old. Next, researchers hired expert labs to test dinosaur bones for age and the labs returned results they verified as accurate and untainted by contamination. What the owners of the bones did not tell the reputable labs was that the bones were from dinosaurs, not mammoths. Once the labs discovered the truth about the bones they were filled with rage for having been tricked into admitting dinosaur bones test at less than 50,000 years old.
But that is not all. Now the asteroid impact theory is being refuted and replaced by an even newer theory:
New computer analysis hints volcanism killed the dinosaurs, not an asteroid
Scientists take a creative approach to investigating what caused the mass extinction 66 million years ago, but the debate is far from settled.
