One of the beauties of science is that it is self-correcting. Sometimes with a big upheaval, but usually increment by increment a closer truth is revealed. This is why we understand that former conclusions were flawed, and why, in the future, the truth as we know it, will evolve from where it is today. "Best available science" is a term that gets thrown around a lot. But it's important to look closely at what that means. All things considered, this is the best conclusion we can support today. And if today's conclusions are based in part on fabricated data or analyses, evolution toward a newer truth will come much more rapidly.
