Toi- sorry but that’s just wrong. Chazal’s greatness in Torah and Halacha does not exempt them from being susceptible to making scientific mistakes, just like everyone else in the world at that time! If chazal knew all science, then why didn’t they invent telescopes or know the earth is round? You’re the amoeba. Your emunah is so weak, it has to be bolstered by insisting chazal were incredible science geniuses ahead of their times when that’s not the case.

DY: how could the Gra argue on the rambam? And rambam was a Chacham and he was niftar 800 years ago- ergo chazal.
