The Public Record of Science and Technology Claims.Tracked until the evidence decides.
Every week, researchers, laboratories and technology companies announce breakthroughs that promise to reshape the future. Some claims become enduring scientific milestones. Others evolve, fragment, or quietly disappear. Faultline Observatory preserves the public history of those claims — from announcement to resolution, with all evidence visible.
What does the evidence say? Start with a question.

Has a quantum computer achieved practical advantage yet?
Practical Quantum Advantage — Performance Beyond Classical Computation on Relevant Problems
LPR-001-D19 corrected the representation and provenance of IN-003, IN-004 and IN-006 without changing the claim's evidentiary state.

Is liquid-biopsy cancer screening real yet?
Liquid Biopsy — Early Cancer Detection Before Conventional Diagnosis
Peer-reviewed publication of the NHS-Galleri randomized primary results (IN-007) and three-round test-performance analysis (IN-008) materially strengthens the record's evidence quality without resolving its central fracture.

Whatever happened to room-temperature superconductors?
Room-Temperature Superconductivity — Reproducibility Under Laboratory Conditions
LPR-001-D22 narrows the record's evidential basis but preserves the COLLAPSED / VS-05 judgement.
