BTW, speaking of science, the inability of “journalism” industry to accurately report on science seems to have no depth.

For instance, consider this story headline from today: “NASA’s ‘astonishing’ find: 54 planets that can sustain human life”.

Now, in reality, NASA did no such thing. What NASA’s Kepler satellite did do was detect 54 candidates for planets which happen to be in the habitable (= liquid water temperatures) zone of orbits around their stars (in this case all small, relatively cool stars.)

Even if all 54 candidates turn out to be true (and not false positives), all of them could be quite hostile to any form of life, much more so to “human life.”

The ability to accurately report the truth seems to be beyond some people.
