Dates back to 2011, so not exactly new, perhaps improved. The Obama minions wouldn’t let them publish as government employees, so they released a paper under pseudonyms (names spelled in reverse), were called out on that basis—thus paper retracted. Links in chronological order.

***Eventually, their true identities were discovered, and so, the journal, Advances in Space Research, retracted the paper, though the editors acknowledged that the retraction was “not related to the scientific merit of the study.”***

So in essence, the editors are admitting that they retracted the paper due to political reasons, not scientific ones. I’m glad that they have at least come clean about the reason.
