    It depends on how you classify misinformation/ disinformation… Scientific disinformation could just be stuff that has been disproven…

        Science has an unintuitive philosophical system, it is actually impossible (or just not feasible) to “disprove” a lot of things absolutely 100%.

        Best you can do is prove something, or fail to prove something.

        And it does make some sense, there’s uncertainty in measurements, there’s some probability and statistics involved.

        Proving there are NOT aliens out there would require checking every inch of every planet for life, remains, or fossils.
