La '''teoría de la información''' es una disciplina matemática aplicada que se ocupa de cuánta [[información]] se puede colocar en un medio dado, usando cualquier conjunto particular de símbolos.

A vast number of inventions have flowed from information theory. They include new types of optical media, lossless (.zip, .gz, .tar) and lossy (.mp3, .jpeg) data compression, cellular radio (mobile telephony), and the transmission and reception of network services at high speeds. The [[Wikipedia]] has a large series of interrelated articles that describe information theory in detail.

==Proceso==
The chief interest of information theory to [[creation science]] has to do with:
# How much information can reside in a single [[Molecular compound|molecule]] of [[DNA]], and
# Whether any of that information could have assembled itself through chance alone.

Information theory can certainly address the first question. But it can address the second only indirectly. Information theory concerns itself primarily with ''efficiency of information storage'' and not with information ''authorship.'' That said, information theory can tell us that the quantity of information required for life is vast (and give a fair estimate as to ''how'' vast). From that one can conclude that the ''probability'' of reproducing that information accurately and keeping "information entropy" to a minimum is exceedingly low--and therein lies the problem for concepts such as [[abiogenesis]]. [[Francis H. Crick]] and [[Leslie E. Orgel]] invented their alternative life-origin theory of [[Panspermia#Directed panspermia|directed panspermia]] in direct recognition of the tremendous problem of how such a vast quantity of information could self-assemble.
