An Israeli biotech firm says it is nearing human trials for a breakthrough drug that could extend human lifespan by up to 30 percent by targeting the age-regulating protein SIRT-6, which the company says would also improve brain function, organ health, and overall vitality. On Friday, Israeli news site N12 reported that Tel Aviv-based Sirtlab is preparing to launch clinical trials on a drug designed to stimulate SIRT-6, a protein associated with youth, vitality, and disease resistance. The treatment could be available within three years, pending successful trials and regulatory approval. Are miracles real? And do they still happen today? These questions have dominated my life over the past two years as I’ve traversed America exploring some of the most compelling claims of miraculous healing — stories that seem too bombastic to be believable. Yet the evidence in the cases I encountered while making my new documentary, “Investigating the Supernatural: Miracles,” was so compelling that it absolutely demanded a pertinent exploration as well as a verdict. It’s no secret that the vast majority of Americans believe miracles still happen today. In 2010, the Pew Forum on Religion found that 80% of Americans embraced miracles, and more recent data shows such beliefs continue to be prevalent among the general populace. Frankly, most people have seen happenings they simply cannot explain. Some have endured even more elevated experiences, including shocking medical healings and other incidents that have led them to definitively believe the divine is actively at work. But my job in producing and hosting this film wasn’t to take these anecdotal examples of miracle claims at face value. Instead, it was to skeptically explore some of the supposedly ironclad miracle healing stories in a way that left absolutely no room for whims or personal opinion. Despite my staunchest efforts to approach the topic with skepticism and intense questioning, the scenarios I was confronted with were mind-bending, to say the least. First, I met neuroscientist Dr. Joshua Brown, who was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor, a condition for which there was no medical treatment. With no viable interventions, he and his wife turned to prayer — and his tumor vanished. In the film, you’ll also meet Bryan Lapooh, a former police officer in New Jersey who was paralyzed in a work accident and embarked on a horrific, 10-year period of paralysis that included excruciating pain and suffering. During that time, Lapooh and his wife ventured on a monumental prayer and healing quest — but, at first, to no avail. After a decade of praying for healing, his wife, Meg, asked him to attend a Christian conference to try one final time. At that event, Bryan made his way to the stage, where he was prayed for, received healing, and walked out of the building on his own.... Exploring these questions through the eyes of those who claim to have experienced miracles was eye-opening, convicting, and transformational, as it challenged everything I thought I knew about faith and miracles and left me with a renewed perspective. “Investigating the Supernatural: Miracles” will do the same for those who watch.

But new research has revealed something much more dynamic. According to a recent study published in Nature Geoscience, Earth’s inner core has not only slowed down, it now appears to be rotating in reverse compared to the planet’s surface. Earth’s structure is layered like an onion—from the crust we walk on, down through the mantle, to the swirling liquid outer core, and finally to the solid iron inner core at the very center. That core, roughly the size of the Moon, is surrounded by molten metal and was long believed to rotate slightly faster than the rest of the planet. But that’s no longer the case. Using decades of seismic data from earthquakes and even old nuclear tests, scientists have found “unambiguous evidence” that the inner core began slowing down around 2010—and has since started rotating backwards relative to Earth’s crust and mantle. This discovery doesn’t mean Earth is in danger—but it does mean our planet’s deepest engine is alive, complex, and still full of surprises. https://dailygalaxy.com/2025/03/earths-inner-core-is-rotating-backwards/ National Rally leader Marine Le Pen has vowed to fight a Paris court’s decision to ban her from standing in the upcoming presidential election, accusing the judiciary of acting politically and attempting to undermine the people’s sovereignty. In an unprecedented move, magistrates in Paris on Monday sentenced former presidential candidate Marine Le Pen to a five-year ban from standing for any political office in France after finding her guilty of embezzlement over the alleged use of European Union funds for her populist National Rally party at the EU Parliament for political activities in France. Crucially, the judges sided with demands for prosecutors to enact the ban immediately and for it to remain in place during any appeal, making it likely that the prohibition would remain in force during the 2027 presidential race to replace Emmanuel Macron, who will be term-limited from running again for the presidency. Le Pen, the undisputed frontrunner in the polls for the presidential race, has claimed the ruling is something usually seen in “authoritarian regimes”, arguing that the presumption of innocence is typically returned to those in France who launch appeals against convictions. Therefore, the ban on her from running for office during the appeal process violates the rule of law, she asserted. “This evening, there are millions of French people who are indignant, indignant to an unimaginable point, seeing that, in France, in the country of human rights, judges have implemented practices that we believed reserved for authoritarian regimes,” the National Rally leader said in an interview on Monday evening according to Le Figaro. In a recent interview, the astronauts provided a detailed account of the harrowing events that transpired during the flight, which left them stranded in space until they were rescued by Donald Trump and Elon Musk. The interview reveals that the astronauts came far closer to a catastrophic failure and subsequent death in orbit than was previously known. ...as the Starliner approached the ISS for docking, a series of thruster failures put the mission and the lives of the astronauts in jeopardy. Wilmore, who had to take manual control of the vehicle, expressed his concern about the situation, stating, “I don’t know that we can come back to Earth at that point. I don’t know if we can. And matter of fact, I’m thinking we probably can’t.” The loss of thrusters violated the mission’s flight rules, which dictated that the crew should abort the docking attempt and return to Earth. However, with the uncertainty surrounding Starliner’s ability to safely deorbit and reenter Earth’s atmosphere, the astronauts and Mission Control faced a difficult decision. Flight directors at NASA’s Mission Control in Houston, led by Ed Van Cise, decided to waive the flight rules and proceed with the docking attempt. They worked tirelessly to develop a plan to reset the failed thrusters, effectively rebooting the system to restore functionality. Wilmore, who had to relinquish manual control during the thruster reset, described the moment as incredibly tense. “That was not easy to do,” he said, acknowledging the years of training and preparation that had led to this critical juncture. Fortunately, the thruster reset was partially successful, bringing two of the four failed thrusters back online. However, a fifth thruster failed shortly after, leaving Starliner in a precarious position once again. “What if we’d have lost that fifth jet while those other four were still down?” Wilmore questioned. “I have no idea what would’ve happened.” This failure could have resulted in the astronauts stuck in a Boeing craft unable to dock with the ISS or return to Earth. This would have likely resulted in the death of the crew. Despite the ongoing challenges, Starliner managed to dock with the ISS, much to the relief of the astronauts and Mission Control. In the aftermath of the docking, NASA and Boeing engineers worked diligently to assess Starliner’s condition and determine whether it was safe for the astronauts to return to Earth in the spacecraft. Wilmore and Williams remained skeptical about Starliner’s ability to bring them home safely, given the thruster issues they had experienced. Ultimately, the decision was made to fly Starliner home without crew, and Wilmore and Williams returned to Earth in March 2025 aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft after a nine-month stay on the ISS. When asked how he endured being stranded in space, Wilmore praised Jesus Christ and publicly proclaimed his faith in the Lord.
