Re: Quirky Science Facts!

Interestingly, bacterial 'sexual' reproduction involves the transfer of genes directly between the cells. They use small tues called pili (singular: pilus).

Lightbulb Re: Quirky Science Facts!

Does the French Space Agency (CNES) count as Quirky Science Facts?

Or do they have something worth talking about!?

I guess a quirky science fact would be that a so-called representative for a "space agency" ridicules an actual space agency and thinks it's funny.

Question Re: Quirky Science Facts!

I See!
So quick to attack and slander, and little effort to engage!

I was NOT ridiculing CNES the French Space Agency, I was actually bringing light to the fact they are brave enough to bring the UFO issue into the light of day, and to address it as this topic should be! In a scientific point of view!

If took the time to look at the International Space Agency (ISA) website before you put your foot in your mouth, you would have seen with support CNES, and have a link to CNES!

You people do not know how to greet guests and new comers do you!

You start wars and throw around fighting words, and do so with out even knowing the FACTS! NOT very scientific I maight say!

But let's cut to the chase:
Cnes - GEIPAN UAP investigation unit opens its files

I fail to see the quirk.

Question Re: Quirky Science Facts!

To the common man who is controled by government propoganda, this would seem to be a quirk! I made a contrast to this, to bring positive light to the facts, and not the media feed cult frenzy!

You attacked a new comer before this person even had a chance to have a word sideways!

Now you make threats because you are an Admin, and make things even more hostile!
