Rain6639 wrote:my claim is, the paper is a joke
those were found on 29 December 2012, and the report is published 2 weeks later?
if these people value their credibility at all, they would spend weeks, even months refining their claims before publishing.
anyone familiar with scientific papers would recognize this, and have a good laugh.
heading of the paper: dated 10 january 2013
first sentence of the abstract: "We report the discovery for the first time of diatom frustules in a carbonaceous meteorite that fell in the North Central Province of Sri Lanka on 29 December 2012."
translation: 'hey, y'all, this is a joke. let's see what people say.'
These guys too made the century discovery a couple months ago, but...
Love how fast we got from "journalism=information" to "misinformation graduates, option: sell more paper" |

It wasn't a meteorite, and the diatoms weren't fossilized. False alarm. |
