Much is known about Charles Darwin's voyages around the world, and of his work later on in life, when he wrote his famous evolution theories. However, little has been revealed thus far about his early years, especially the time when he was a student at the famed Christ's College, from 1828 to 1831. A stack ... |

It would now seem that there was a side to the English naturalist Charles Darwin that eluded those who wrote about his life for all the years that passed since his death, on April 19th, 1882.

Over the years, and especially starting with the late 18th century and early 19th century, theories of how life came to be moved outside the church's sphere of influence, and into the realm of science. Although this should have brought forth a new age in knowledge, based on facts and not on fantasy, that was har... |

Although only known to very few, the HMS Beagle was one of the most influential ships of modern times, simply because it was the means Charles Darwin used to get around the world and observe plant and animal species that eventually led to him creating his famous theory of evolution on the survival of the stronges... |

With 2009 being labeled as the International Year of Astronomy, it is quite obvious why the next year should be named the Galileo year, after the great scientist and visionary of his time, Galileo Galilei, the author of the world's greatest discovery in the field. This is even more valid as in 2009, there w... |

Today must be hooker day or something - so you might as well check your organizers, calendars, agendas and all that and let me know if I missed out on an important day of the year.
