The safety of cellphones is in question following the discovery that their emissions have an unexpected effect on living creatures. This finding refutes the theory that heating from mobile phone signals is their only threat to brain cells.

In lab tests, British scientists have found that microwave emissions typical of cellphones make a type of worm called a nematode more fertile. Why this happens is unclear and there?s no suggestion that human fertility could be affected. But the research is important because it reveals, for the first time, that biological effects are possible without any warming of tissues.

Pioneer 10, a space probe launched in 1972 that took the first close-up pictures of Jupiter before leaving our solar system in 1983, is being pulled back to the sun by an unknown force. The nature of this force baffles scientists and could cause them to rewrite the laws of physics.

Dr. Philip Laing, of the Aerospace Corporation of California, a member of the team that is tracking the craft, says, ?We have examined every mechanism and theory we can think of and so far nothing works. If the effect is real, it will have a big impact on cosmology and spacecraft navigation.?

The United States imported more than 200,000 pounds of beef last year from countries that are not allowed to sell their meat products here because of their association with mad cow disease, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture figures.

On Saturday?s Dreamland, our science reporter Linda Howe and researcher Jim Marrs, author of ?Rule by Conspiracy,? reported on an amazing document about UFO secrecy that was produced by an English think tank called the Warwick Research Institute. A listener sent us the link to the website of the Mutual UFO Network of Ohio (MORA, where you can read the actual document.
