*Weekly Science Report*

*January 8, 2021*

“*Let us dream, as a single human family, as fellow travelers sharing the
same flesh, as children of the same Earth which is our common home, each of
us bringing the richness of his or her beliefs and convictions, each of us
with his or her own voice, brothers and sisters all.”*

Pope Francis

Introduction

Steve Detwiler created this publication with the support of Graham Hancock
and the late John Anthony West to share news and information on various
disciplines to include but not limited to paleontology, space sciences,
genetics and archaeology.  His goal behind sharing this publication has
always been very simple, by sharing knowledge we can make our world a
better place.  This publication is Mr. Detwiler’s contribution to bring
people together and share ideas and discoveries with his fellow humans.

I hope you enjoy this publication and that the content challenges and
inspires you!
