Introduction

I created this publication with the support of Graham Hancock and John Anthony Westto share news and information on various disciplines to include paleontology, spacesciences, genetics and archaeology. My goal behind sharing this publication has alwaysbeen very simple, by sharing knowledge we can make our world a better place. Sincethe beginning of the internet age we have always heard of the world being drawntogether but through my investigations Ive never found a publication like the WeeklyScience Report. This publication is my contribution to bring people together and shareideas and discoveries with my fellow man.

I hope you enjoy this publication and that the content challenges and inspires you!
