About this Episode

In Episode 29 of The Genesis Science Report, we begin with a fascinating look at the human body’s God-designed ability to adapt—especially in the harsh environment of space. David Rives breaks down what happens to astronauts after months in orbit and how the body’s resilience reflects divine engineering.

Then, we welcome Dr. Glenn Wilson, a USDA research hydrologist, who challenges our assumptions about Genesis 1. When the Bible says “dry land appeared,” was it truly dry? Dr. Wilson explores how the Hebrew word yabbashah, paired with soil physics, suggests a life-sustaining Earth optimized for immediate vegetation—reshaping how we understand Day 3 of Creation.

Later in the program, David Coppedge, a former NASA systems engineer and science journalist, joins us to answer a timeless question: If the universe is so massive, how can God still care about us? His thoughtful insights remind us that size doesn’t determine significance—purpose and design do.

Also in this episode: tightly sealed clam fossils in Kids Corner, a historic Bible reading from the Apollo 8 mission in our Genesis Science Minute, and a Featured Resource that digs into the origin of evil—Satan & the Serpent.

It’s a science-meets-Scripture lineup you won’t want to miss.
