The modern use of the words "intelligent design", as a term intended to describe a field of inquiry, began after the [[Supreme Court of the United States]], in the case of ''[[Edwards v. Aguillard]]'' (1987), ruled that [[creationism]] is unconstitutional in public school science curricula. A Discovery Institute report says that [[Charles Thaxton]], editor of ''[[Of Pandas and People]]'', had picked the phrase up from a [[NASA]] scientist, and thought "That's just what I need, it's a good engineering term".<ref>
