Conspiracy Friday*: The 13th
Happy Friday the 13th! You’ll be pleased to now that this is the first of THREE Friday the 13ths this year, occurring exactly 13 weeks apart. Though there are often three Friday the 13ths in a year, this year is particularly rare because it’s a leap year. A year like this won’t occur again until 2040.
And if that isn’t enough rare superstition for you, keep in mind...

Why Mainstream Media Reports about Science Do More...
This happens all the time.
The media reports on some new scientific theory that promises to “change the world of (insert scientific field here) FOREVER”. Then three months later, when the theory is disproved or revealed to be pseudo-science, the general population takes its anger out on Science.

Conspiracy Friday*: Elenin, Nibiru and Why We...
The doomsday astronomy is really getting out of hand. I won’t lie, I saw both 90’s asteroid-destroys-Earth movies. I think most humans are fascinated by the idea that something from space could end existence as we know it.
With the Mayan end-of-the-world deadline rapidly approaching, amateur astronomers and conspiracy theorists are churning out theories about comets guiding...

Conspiracy Friday*: Keanu is Immortal
