Hey, we were as accurate as the report was.
Problem is, the "scientist from NASA" is merely affiliated with the agency -- this research was his own doing. He misrepresented the source of the research in the paper itself, and recently posted an extensive correction.
The Guardian has since updated their story; we're right behind them with a note explaining everything. I assure you, we do everything in our power to keep things factual, accurate and relevant.
