…make far enough away, small enough, or back millions of years and you can publish anything you wish..Scams by any other name are Scams..

And at one time we didn’t have telescopes strong enough to physically observe other solar systems and planets but astronomers theorized that they existed. But I guess that was all a scam….

>>>>>>>>...........................
the history of how science is funded is an interesting topic, today we have a system of grants (tax money) with gate keepers awarding the money without much oversight..
Politics and fads (man made global warming) and save the planet fads have sucked money from basic research that is practical (think Tom Edison as an example)..and has resulted in so called science justifying the death of the incandescent light bulb via legislation..the implications
of scams in science are obvious.
