More common creationist red herrings, distortions, and falsehoods. See here, here, and here.
One can't observe a complete stellar life-cycle either, but this doesn't render the fact of it false. Same with speciation events. Never mind that species is largely an artificial construct. If common descent is true, there are no hard boundaries in the history of life. Bacteria and humankind comprise a unity, not distinct entities.
