Classical mechanics emerges from quantum theory via rigorously proven limits.
Claim:
A proven connection exists between classical physics and quantum physics.
NOT BS
Science
Research findings, viral studies, and scientific claims under the lens.
China’s Chang’e-4 and Chang’e-6 successfully landed on the Moon’s far side.
Claim:
China has successfully landed a spacecraft on the far side of the Moon.
NOT BS
Wolf reintroduction caused localized trophic-cascade effects, but impacts were variable.
Claim:
The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone National Park triggered a trophic cascade that fundamentally transformed the park's ecosystem.
SOME BS
Cognitive harms appear mainly with heavy, passive AI dependence, not general use.
Claim:
Using artificial intelligence tools causes a decline in human intelligence over time.
MOSTLY BS
From low Earth orbit, the Great Wall is generally impossible to see unaided.
Claim:
The Great Wall of China is visible from space with the naked eye.
TOTAL BS
Research finds MBTI type results often shift on retesting, undermining validity.
Claim:
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) lacks scientific validity as a personality assessment tool.
HARDLY BS
Cross-cutting close relationships can reduce prejudice and affective polarization, depending on contact quality.
Claim:
Having at least one person with different political or religious views in an individual's close personal network is associated with significantly less extreme beliefs in that individual.
SOME BS
No peer-reviewed evidence supports human or goldfish attention-span figures.
Claim:
The average human attention span is shorter than that of a goldfish.
TOTAL BS
Subliminal information can measurably bias simple choices, though effects are limited.
Claim:
Subtle cues can influence people's decisions without their conscious awareness.
HARDLY BS
A large 2019 replication found no reliable “warm drink, warm person” effect.
Claim:
Holding a warm drink causes people to perceive others as more friendly or warm.
MOSTLY BS
Estimated deaths per terawatt-hour for nuclear and solar are both ~0.02–0.03.
Claim:
Nuclear power has a lower mortality rate per unit of electricity generated than solar energy.
SOME BS
Which-path measurements destroy double-slit interference via decoherence and information gain.
Claim:
The double-slit experiment demonstrates that the act of observation alters the outcome of quantum events.
HARDLY BS
Evidence suggests “missing” ocean plastic fragments, sinks, and accumulates in sediments.
Claim:
Scientists have identified the destination of previously unaccounted-for missing ocean plastic.
SOME BS
Earth’s mantle transition zone likely holds about 0.2–1 ocean equivalents of water.
Claim:
A water reservoir located approximately 700 kilometers below Earth's surface contains more water than all of Earth's oceans combined.
MOSTLY BS
Sleep after learning consolidates memories and improves later recall.
Claim:
Sleeping after studying improves memory retention.
NOT BS
Environmental DNA surveys found only ordinary species in Loch Ness, including eels.
Claim:
The Loch Ness Monster is a real, living creature inhabiting Loch Ness in Scotland.
TOTAL BS
Large multicountry studies show hotter nights are linked to poorer sleep worldwide.
Claim:
Rising nighttime temperatures caused by climate change are disrupting sleep patterns on a global scale.
HARDLY BS
As of March 2026, JWST findings have not contradicted the Big Bang’s core evidence.
Claim:
The James Webb Space Telescope has produced evidence that disproves the Big Bang theory as of March 26, 2026.
TOTAL BS
Lifecycle studies consistently find EVs emit less total CO2 than gasoline cars.
Claim:
Electric vehicles produce more CO2 emissions over their full lifetime than equivalent gasoline-powered cars.
TOTAL BS
Human urine cells can be reprogrammed into iPSCs that form cerebral organoids.
Claim:
Scientists have successfully grown functional brain tissue organoids from stem cells derived from human urine samples.
HARDLY BS
No checks match that verdict.
