10 Misconceptions in Science That Persist Despite Being Completely Inaccurate
Superstitions, urban legends, and myths have an uncanny ability to linger in our collective consciousness. Once these ideas take hold, they often resist fading away, even when their inaccuracies are glaringly apparent.

In this compilation, we delve into ten persistently false scientific "facts" that seem impervious to correction. Despite countless attempts to set the record straight, these myths persist, but we strive to do our part in dispelling them.
