NOVA made it look like a bunch of cutting edge scientists discovered something new.
J. Harlan Bretz destroyed is career as a geologist proving that the Channeled Scablands were caused by catastrophic floods. Catastrophic floods were associated with Noah and the Arc.Not a good place to land back then.
What's his name in the show appears to take the credit. He's either a thief or should have sued NOVA for editing him to look like the discoverer.. Science is good, credit is bad. Maybe we can show a modern day physicist discovering that objects of unequal mass fall at the same rate as though it was an amazing new discovery.
