Some 4.5 billion years ago, our planet was a drastically different place – an uninhabitable world with extremely hot temperatures, toxic air, and pounded with radiation coming from the Sun in the form of flares and coronal mass ejections. Scientists believe everything changed with the formation of the Moon. The Earth and the Moon once had a joint magnetic field that acted as a shield against […]
Johnson & Johnson has temporarily halted its coronavirus vaccine trial after a trial participant contracted an “unexplained illness,” the company said, though offered few additional details about the setback.

Guest post by Lawrence Sellin Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, the Chinese Communist Party has desperately tried to convince the world that SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus responsible for COVID-19, was naturally transmitted from animals to humans. That is, SARS-CoV-2, over time, naturally mutated in animals until it attained structures capable of infecting humans. A new scientific study, however, demonstrates that SARS-CoV-2 could not have “jumped” […]
