Design

Spider silk is stronger than steel of the same weight because of its micro-structure.

Genetic engineering is not science fiction, so we review the Netflix series Unnatural Selection and discuss the implications of modern genetic technology, human cloning, CRISPR, and designer babies.

Alsomitra macrocarpa Javan cucumber samara seed glider bio-inspiration for aeronautical design leading to stealth bomber

The immortal jellyfish can revert from mature to polyp stage, rejuvenating itself from young polyp to fully mature again.

Tokay gecko toes and feet utilize van der Walls forces in setae and spatula to walk on vertical surfaces.

Biological systems evince something akin to parametric design, which is evidence that they are designed rather than evolved.

The functional proportion of the genome is higher than evolutionists want, but much of the genomic sequence is unaffected by natural selection.

Archer fish use advanced hydrodynamics, testifying to a master Designer.

The Sulawesi Bear Cuscus is a marsupial that stretches the evolutionary paradigm to breaking point.

The ratio of 1:1.62 as seen in building design, flower petals and pine cones is very pleasing to the eye. Why?

These bacteria precision-build magnetic navigation aids

Ironclad beetle laminated elytra have special joins that confer extra toughness, and might inspire aircraft joints.

Evolution cannot plausibly explain the existence of a minimally functional ensemble of tRNAs needed by the genetic system.

tRNAs and their fragments are important for many cellular processes, and precisely regulate many interactions in the cell.

Cells possess sophisticated quality control mechanisms to identity and eliminate transfer RNAs that are improperly formed.
