Review Requests for Earth Metamorphosis Theory

Requests for Doug :
a. The impact created the first mega-continent roughly at mid-latitude that tilted the spin axis and displaced the planet toward the Sun where it finally began orbiting again near 1 AU where the Moon-planet already resided. Other evidence of the impact are all the irregular asteroids of the Main Belt, Jupiter's Trojans, and other asteroids that created solar system-wide impacts called the period of Late Heavy Bombardment (LHB), oldest cratons on Earth dated at 3.6 billion years, Moon's different composition from Earth's, Moon's mare that did not solidify for another 800 million years due to Earth's debris being swept up, and mascons in Moon's crust indicating low impact velocity. Any arc blast evidence of that event was certainly erased over time. The impactor brought additional volatiles that differentiated through the continental crust,cracks and rifts of the original crust. The volatile added to the already existing volatile to form the ocean surrounding the raised mega-continent and atmosphere of O2 and N2 that came from the impactors frozen NH3, CO2, CH4 and H2O.These volatile mixed with the Earth's mantle material to create a granitic continental crust. Otherwise, the differentiation of the original mantle created basaltic crust and still does today.

b. The calculations for this event are found on pages 36 to 71 of link; the calculations include impactor parameters, impact velocity, collision impulse and linear momentum change, energies transferred between Earth and Moon, conservation of energy equations; and calc. for tilt of Earth's spin axis.
The link in paragraph (b) is www.ettingerjournals.com/dbe_emm.shtml .

c. The impactor postulated size, mass, velocity, angle of impact, and composition are listed in the beginning of the above listed calculation as impact parameters. No arc blast calculations were made for this event.

d. The rogue planet was possibly a captured planet from another star system when the star nursery was very compact and expanding. More than likely, a brown dwarf star with its own set of planets was captured by the Sun and began orbiting. On one such crossing at its periapsis one of its smaller planets or a satellite collided with Earth when it originally resided between Mars and Jupiter about 3.0 AU away from the Sun. An explanation for the undetectable location is provided by www.ettingerjournals.com/dbe_mankind.shtml and its response to a peer review - www.ettingerjournals.com/dbe_mankind_review1.shtml.


Requests for all participants:
a. Deep bore hole experiments provide direct evidence of the depth of the lighter granitic rock within the continental crusts. Most important is that the rock is fractured and saturated with water.  Large quantities of hydrogen gas are also released from depths of holes bored to 15,000 m or 49,000 ft. with temperatures sometimes reaching 260 C or 500 F.  Most likely the rock is fractured by the extreme pressures of water and gas at those depths similar to expanding ice that cracks rocks on the surface.  The very important thing to note is that water and hydrogen gas actually exist at those depths.  Why?  At certain depths water and gas can no longer be pushed downward. The source is internal from the deeper depths probably due to its entrapment and very slow differentiation over eons.  The Earth Metamorphosis Hypothesis (EMM) predicts that continental crusts will remain granitic because of light volatiles from an impactor mixed with Earth's mantle 3.9 bya.  Much of these pockets of volatiles in the form of water and hydrogen are trapped under the impermeable rock of an existing oceanic crust or the rapidly frozen continental crust after impact.  The water and gas at these depths have no other conceivable source. The formation of granite requiring water has no other explanation. Granite is rare or non-existent in oceanic crusts that have and are still created by normal unmixed original basaltic mantle materials. Geological hot spots such as oceanic island chains are merely places where large pockets of these volatiles from the impactor have escaped through fissures in the crust.  These pockets of volatiles actually move independent of the plate motions; witness the geological history of the Hawaiian chain of islands and other island chains.


b. Sedimentary mega-sequences are a very complicated but are an interesting topic.  Yes, I believe as Robert Johnson does, that massive fossilization occurs somewhat randomly due catastrophic conditions.  The animals are buried alive and are quickly preserved from predators and normal erosion/decomposition.  These catastrophies could be due to dust-ladened atmosphere caused by mega-volcanism or by mega-floods or both.  The mammoths of Siberia were buried and died of either 1) suffocation or asphixziation of falling rock ice and muck or washed onto the shores and islands of northern Siberia in large piles due to mega-flooding.

Geologists have identified certain anomalous locations of fossil records spanning thousands or millions of years with no normal erosion layers;  I can only suggest what present geologists postulate:  maximal sediment starvation (SMS); or, maximal rates of sea level rise thereby isolating certain layers of sediment; or, deepest water conditions producing sediment reduction; or, submarine erosion associated with rapid drop of sea level causing rapid run-off.  Refer to Exxon Sea Level Change charting global sea level fluctuations for the past 500 million years. This study agrees rather well with periods of glaciations that have been tracked for the same period.

c. Radiocarbon dating using C14/C12 isotopic ratio had some validity being compared with deep sea sediment cores, tree rings, and even the chronology of the Egyptian dynastic times.  However, I have grave suspicions of its accuracy because the constant change in this ratio is severely affected by the amount of C14 coming from outer space. If the solar wind is dramatically changed due to Johnson's CME's or the heliosheath crossing of Nemesis, then at those times C!4 coming from the atmosphere will be depressed.  During the catastrophic changes of the Younger Dryas there other reasons for C14 being depressed.  See pages 41-45: Large Error in Radiocarbon Dating for 12,900 Years Ago @  www.ettingerjournals.com/dbe_deluge.shtml.  This type of radiocarbon dating is limited to 50,000 years for organic materials only for appropriate conditions.

Ice core dating is highly suspicious.  Only about 8500 years of an ice core is reliable.  After much snow and/or ice has been layered, the resulting static pressures squeeze the layers beyond recognition. After that many layers, mathematics is used to predict by integration and extrapolation the age of the squashed ice. After the Great Deluge with East Antarctica ice sheet sliding into the sea, the rebuilding of the ice sheet during recovery would have been unexpectedly accelerated.  This acceleration could cause interpretation of the layers to be not just years but individual storms.  See pages 46-50: Antarctica’s Dome C Ice Core Dating found in www.ettingerjournals.com/dbe_deluge.shtml.

Isochron dating and oxygen isotope ratio cycle and atmospheric CO2 are other types of dating methods which may be more reliable.  The oxygen isotope ratio cycle using abundance comparisons of O18 to O16 are dependent upon Earth's global temperatures.  The O18 concentration versus time agrees rather well with periods of glaciation for the past 500 million years.  Isochron dating for rocks can be used for crystallization, shock events, and differentiation of precursor melts such as was used for the Moon rocks.
