3 days agoAccording to the article there exists no evidence that it actually synthesis energy from the radiation. The title is a flat out lie. It is a hypothesis with zero evidence.
Also, it claims melanin that makes it dark, like our skin, is part of the synthesis, but an easier explanation is that it is there to protect against radiation, just like how melanin in our skin protects us from solar radiation.
The whole idea of “radio-synthesis” is pseudoscientific bullshit with nothing to back it up.
Pseudoscience is claiming something as fact when you have no evidence. Portraying an hypothesis as fact is an example of pseudoscience.
It isn’t the hypothesis that makes things scientific, it is the testing and falsification of the hypothesis that makes it scientific. No such has been done.
Until you have the evidence and results, all you have is a sophisticated guess.
I absolutely can dismiss every unproven hypothesis as pseudoscience if it is used as if it was a proven hypothesis. You should too.
