100-Million-Year-Old Spider Attack Recorded in Amber | |
| 0pEnLy~Gr@y Offer Upgrade  User ID: 24442987  Australia10/09/2012 01:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Researchers have found what they say is the only fossil ever discovered of a spider attack on prey caught in its web – a 100 million-year-old snapshot of an engagement frozen in time. The extraordinarily rare fossils are in a piece of amber that preserved this event in remarkable detail, an action that took place in the Hukawng Valley of Myanmar in the Early Cretaceous between 97-110 million years ago, almost certainly with dinosaurs wandering nearby...

How do you know it isn't 5,000 years old? they can count far more yearly seasonal deposits in geological strata ,and even rings on old trees for starters. then there is fossilisation, opalisation etc, which takes at least tens of thousands of years. then there is measured erosion in places like the grand canyon, measured continental drift and endemic fossil species found on separate continents. then there are various light speed measurements and these are just off the top of my head and don't include any of the many modern dating methods which all arrive at similar conclusions. and we all know why you would ask such a question. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 25158158 Learn what EVOLVE means. Evolve: when random genetic mutations STILL allow your kids to have kids. "Evolve" is a rhetorical state meaning SPECIES DIDN'T MUTATE TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT YOUR ENVIRONMENT KILLED YOU. Wasps, ants, cockroaches, shrimps; they've all 'evolved' over millions of years; and reproduced. :) |

Certainly. But not so open that your brain falls out...dumbass :-) I'll accept a theory so long as it seems plausible and has evidence to back it up. If a new theory emerges that is better, I'm the first to'say 'well done' and leave the old one behind. Now get a religitard to do the same. |
