Welcome to our Website! Here at the Expeditioner’s Discovery Guild, we look at the living world around us and bring to you our findings and hypothesis for your criticism. This website, although about the life sciences, will strive to cover the sciences of Biology, Botany, Zoology, Geology, Mineralogy, Paleontology, Cryptozoology, Xenobiology, Astrobiology, and Speculative Evolution.

If you are wondering what these sciences are than it is best we explain:
We here at the Guild have an interest in, and penchant for debunking some other, more loose, sciences and pseudosciences. Cryptozoology is the study for unknown organisms, more commonly known as Cryptids; like Bigfoot, The Loch Ness Monster, and the Chupacabra. Cryptozoology is a pseudoscience, for it tends to rely solely on anecdotal reports and tales, which do not count as true evidence. Whenever true empirical evidence is discovered, it ends up being a hoax or misidentification; however, even though cryptozoology gets a bad reputation due to the large amount of amateur “monster hunter” types that flock to the topic, it can serve as an interesting thought experiment, and it has its merits in psychology.
Astrobiology, xenobiology, and speculative evolution are all fictitious flights-of-fancy and serve only to help people understand the mechanisms of evolution as well as an entertaining look into what could be. Astrobiology is the search for extraterrestrial life, xenobiology is the study of extraterrestrial organisms and is entirely fiction just like Speculative Evolution, which basically takes an event, or situation in which evolution could occur differently than how it has and then imagine organisms along this separate timeline. This group will focus mainly on the solid sciences and will occasionally delve into these fictitious sciences to prove, disprove, and approve.
- Biology: The study of life
- Zoology: The study of animal life
- Botany: The study of plant life
- Geology: The study of the earth and its processes
- Paleontology: The study of ancient life
- Mineralogy: The study of crystals, minerals, and rocks
- 'Cryptozoology': The study of unknown animals
- Astrobiology: The study of the search for extraterrestrial life
- Xenobiology: The study of extraterrestrial life (Currently speculative only)
- Speculative Evolution: Hypothetical evolutionary adaptations to a given event or change

Our team here at the Expeditioner’s Discovery Guild will continue to bring to you only the most accurate and scientifically acceptable information and speculations that can be created. Over the timespan of this project you will learn through videos, presentations, talk-seminars, and info videos about the earth, its composition, the life that lived and still lives on it and speculations on the future of Earth and other life carrying bodies in the universe. We will bring to you the very latest in scientific literature in as entertaining a light as we are capable of. |
