RE: The Six Biggest Scientific Hoaxes of All Time

in StemSocial11 days ago

Yes, scientific frauds like the Piltdown Man seem absurd today, but at the time, even respected scientists were fooled because they wanted to fill gaps in knowledge. As for aliens, I agree that case still fascinates people. Do you think it would be harder to pull off a similar hoax today, or would the internet make it even easier for such things to spread?
