My book research for COSMOLOGICAL ICE AGES shows that after our sun was born in Orion and drifted out into the cold of space Earth froze up for a billion years known as the Huronian Glaciation. A billion years is a long time for nothing to happen. One mile deep ice covered the single ocean and a five-mile deep sheet of ice covered the single continent.
Eventually our solar system drifted between the two-solar mass stars Procyon and Sirius. There was no way to get out of the billion years ice age because Earth had a 750 PSI atmosphere that was over 3,000 miles deep. You would never see the sun with such an atmosphere. There are times when you can't see the sun today with only a 14.5 psi atmosphere that is only 60-miles deep.
FYI: Venus is much closer to the sun than Earth and it still has a high pressure atmosphere of 117 pounds per square inch which is more than 100 times what we have on Earth right now.
Eventually our got captured by Sirius. Little Sirius B, the size of Earth but with 1.5 solar mass putting out more than 100 times the UV light of our sun conducive to plant growth. Little Sirius B with 1.5 solar mass grabbed hold of our sun putting us in orbit around Sirius A and we had multiple suns in the sky but you could only see Sirius A and B not the sun because the atmosphere was still at around 700 PSI.
Eventually a hundred million years of photosynthesis took the atmosphere down to around 300 PSI during the Carboniferous 380-million years ago. Photosynthesis removed the carbon CO2 atmosphere down releasing free oxygen with photosynthesis as coal 100 feet thick and limestone in the shallow seas was created 12,500 feet thick in some places. You got to understand that to make one foot of hard coal (anthracite) takes 40 feet of trees and grass compressed down. A hundred foot layer of coal took 4000 feet of plant growth. We are not seeing such plant growth today because Earth has lost 98% of its atmospher!
Diatoms, with the unique ability to multiply 5 times in 24 hours given 24 hours of light from multiple suns completely filled up ocean basins. Incoming meteors instantly united the hydrogen and oxygen in the water with the calcium carbonate to make hydrocarbons crude oil. Most oil basins are ancient meteor impact zones...check it out.
I could have not written this book twenty years ago because the data wasn't available. I used every available field of science including Antarctic Ice Core graphs of methane, CO2, temperature and snow fall. Campbell and Moore tallied up the red shift of 2149 near by bright stars to determine that our solar system is traveling toward Hercules at 19.5 kilometers per second. I drew a line from Hercules through the middle of a star constellation chart extending beyond the middle and it winds up in Orion. Orion is a birthplace for stars and it is the nearest birthplace so we (our sun) must have been born in Orion. We were in a tight orbit around Sirius for 750-million years. The light from these objects created our carbon resources not the sun.
Right now we are traveling toward Sirius A and B at 7.5 kilometer per second. Our solar system's mass is 2.0 e 30. Sirius A and B has a mass of 6.8 e 30. Procyon has a mass of about 6 e 30. The galaxy gravity is in that direction transmitted in a Fibonacci spiral through billions of stars. To calculate gravity you have to multiply mass difference times four due to the galaxy gravity behind these objects.
Our orbit period id 105,000 years which matches Ice Ages.
Eight years ago Scientists measured the lung cavities of dinosaurs to determine that Earth's atmosphere 65-+ million years ago had to be around 30 to 60 PSI to keep the animals alive because their lungs were too small.
Scientists in Washington State measured the fossil remains of rain to discover the drops were much smaller theorizing that the air pressure had to be double what it is today.
Higher Oxygen & Air Pressure: The Necessities
Both
evolutionists and many creationists believe the earth, at one time, had higher
oxygen levels then it does today. Many evolutionists, in fact, propose that low
levels of oxygen led to the extinction of the dinosaurs (coupled with other
factors). The reasons for this belief are abundant, and some of them we will
touch upon.
The
timetables for which these environmental altering events occurred, however, are
vastly different between the evolutionist and creationist. The former places
such changes during the periods of the Triassic, Jurassic, etc., millions of
years ago. The latter places the changes during one cataclysmic event, with
that event having occurred only some thousands of years ago. The two perspectives
are polar opposites, and yet, share a bit of common ground.
For one,
both see that higher oxygen levels and great air pressure are necessities.
Realize that when we use the word both, we are not speaking of both camps
entirely. There are obviously differing views.
Why are
such conditions necessities? Here are some reasons.
Higher Oxygen: Evidence
& Reasons
Big
Bugs & Research At ASU[17]
Evolutionary
scientists know full-well that dragonflies as large as hawks and cockroaches
big enough to take on house cats thrived during the Paleozoic era (245-570
million years ago, according to their timescale). One physiologist, John
Harrison, has been particularly fascinated with such creatures. Harrison is a
professor of biology at Arizona State University, and wanted to know why
insects of long ago grew to be so large. He and his colleagues believed the
answer to be in how insects breathe, and they are busy studying how the
respiratory physiology of modern insects affects their body size.
Air
breathing animals breathe with lungs. Insects, rather than lungs, breathe with
a network of tiny tubes called tracheae. Air enters the tubes through a row of
holes along an insect’s abdomen, and then diffuses down the blind-ended
tracheae. In terms of the subject at hand, it is here where the rubber meets
the road, because the distance oxygen can travel down the tracheae is dependant
upon its concentration in the air. Theoretically, then, if atmospheric oxygen
is doubled, it will make it twice as far. If an insect has a longer trachea,
therefore, one should expect that the insect will need higher oxygen to
breathe.
The
question is, can all this be tested? In an attempt to do just that, Harrison
studied and continues to study some of the larger insects of our day in his ASU
laboratory; namely grasshoppers and dragonflies. What he has found is
revealing. The insects’ activity is affected by the amount of oxygen in the
atmosphere, and just as the theory predicts, the effect is more pronounced in
the largest specimens. The biggest bugs have the longest trachea, and therefore
need the most oxygen.
For the
remaining skeptics, there is one last test that should be made ... and has been
made. If the theory be true, then smaller insects with shorter trachea should
be able to deliver adequate oxygen to the tissues even in a low-oxygen
atmosphere, and this difference should be most obvious when the smaller and
larger insects are forced to engage in oxygen consuming activity, such as
flying or jumping.
Simply
put, this is exactly what Harrison has seen in his laboratory, and not with
different kinds of insects, but with different sizes of the same kind of
insect.
Harrison
and graduate student Scott Kirkton tested the aerobic performance of
grasshoppers given varying amounts of oxygen, and found that smaller
grasshoppers can hop nonstop in atmospheric oxygen levels lower then that of
our own (21%). In fact, the smallest grasshoppers didn't even have problems in
oxygen as low as 5%.
As for
the larger grasshoppers? They were quite the contrast from their smaller
brothers and sisters, as they tired out faster and their hopping rates rapidly
dropped to zero. When extra doses of oxygen were given, however, they began
jumping more, strongly suggesting an oxygen-stimulated boost which increased
their performance.
The same
was seen with dragonflies. As has been shared, fossil dragonflies the size of
hawks have been discovered. A dragonfly of such size calls for a dragonfly with
a long trachea, and in experiments where oxygen levels were greatly reduced,
the dragonflies, not even half as large as their fossil ancestors, went from
effortless flight to desperate exertion. The specimens couldn't even get off the
ground at the lowest oxygen levels!
This is
because the flight muscle of an insect burns more oxygen than any other animal
tissue, and scientists know this well. It is a powerful, beautifully designed
machine, depending on oxygen to run akin to a car depending on gas. The fact is
this: the amount of oxygen supplied to an insect’s muscles, such as those of a
dragonfly, directly depends on the amount of oxygen in the air. Therefore, the
results of Harrison's experiments make perfect sense, and shed light on the
type of atmosphere insects of such large size, such as dragonflies, grasshoppers,
etc., would need in order to survive.
Arguments &
Objections
As stated
before, many evolutionists believe the earth had higher oxygen levels in the
past (millions of years ago), as do many creationists (before the flood,
thousands of years ago). Some creationists, however, are reluctant to believe
such, citing that the Bible isn't clear on the subject and that other factors
could contribute to gigantism in the insect world. True, but the Bible isn't
clear on a number of scientific subjects, so it is an empty argument. Also,
such creationists who cite the contrary do not provide plausible explanations.
Some
espouse that gigantism was a result of purer genes, which consequently mutated
after the flood (as a result of bottleneck). This argument, however, holds
little weight, as flood-believers know full well that insects were not taken on
the ark, and therefore would not have had a bottleneck problem (where a small
number of individuals were left to breed. Insects can survive flood scenarios
better than animals can).
The
second argument is that some insects can increase oxygen delivery by a
mechanical pumping action of their bodies, and therefore aren't as dependant on
oxygen levels. While this is true of some insects, it doesn't explain all of
them. Furthermore, and more importantly, Harrison's experiments strongly refute
such an argument. The larger grasshoppers and dragonflies were not able to cope
with lower oxygen levels, while the smaller specimens were able to. It is
clear, then, that the larger grasshoppers and dragonflies were not able to
utilize any type of pumping action to accommodate their altered environment.
The third
and final objection is that not all fossil insects are of large proportions.
Notice that this argument fails to deal with the ones that are large. Consequently,
it is irrelevant.
In short,
both evolutionists and creationists who take umbrage against the theory need to
provide convincing counter-arguments. The evidence can't be ignored.
Greater Air Pressure:
Evidence & Reasons
Quetzalcoatlus
& The Problem Of Overheating[18]
Even
if we could bring dinosaurs back to life, it wouldn't be enough, says Octave
Levenspiel, an emeritus professor of chemical engineering at Abiqua State
University. According to him, one thing stands in the way, and that's the
earth's present atmosphere, which may be only one-eighth as dense as it was
many years ago.
"Today's South American
condors - with their 12-foot wingspans and 25-pound weight - are the largest
creatures that can support and propel themselves through the air according to
basic aerodynamic principles," said Levenspiel. "The pterosaur
quetzalcoatlus had a wingspan of more than 45 feet - half that of a Boeing 737
- and weighed more than 150 pounds. Either it couldn't fly - but it did or the
atmosphere had to be much denser at the time."
Levenspiel
postulates the earth's atmosphere was at least eight times denser "100 million years
ago." Much less power is needed to fly at greater atmospheric
pressures, so such conditions would have given the largest pterosaurs a much
easier time flying.
Not only
that, but according to Levenspiel, the giant land-dwelling dinosaurs would
overheat today for the same reason. "When creatures become very large, they
have more trouble removing heat," he said. "A denser atmosphere
removes heat faster. An atmosphere eight times denser would have allowed the
giant dinosaurs to survive."
In other
words, sticking a large dinosaur in a modern-day theme park wouldn't just be a walk in the park. Your dinosaurs
would, sadly again, go extinct.
Arguments &
Objections
Some
simply think the Quetzalcoatlus could fly in an atmosphere like ours today. Like a
hand glider, it would have just needed to pick a suitable spot with enough
distance to run and height enough to jump from. Obviously, such a situation
would be awkward, and just plain silly. As for large dinosaurs and overheating,
it is possible that they possessed some type of internal mechanism for keeping
them cool, but evidence of such has not been found.
Greater Air Pressure:
Evidence & Reasons
Ancient
Amber & Ancient Air[18]
As
displayed above, many articles have appeared in recent years discussing the
topic of ancient amber and oxygen levels. In short, the evidence seems clear.
Earth's atmosphere once contained more oxygen, specifically around 35% (as
opposed to today's 21%). Tiny bubbles of ancient air trapped by successive
flows of tree resin have been discovered in ancient amber, and analyses of the
gases in these bubbles reveal these startling numbers. Lest the skeptic argue
insufficient testing, the results were based on more than 300 analyses by USGS
scientists. Interestingly, the amber samples were also from different
evolutionary periods ... the Cretaceous, Tertiary, etc., and even came from 16
world sites. The oldest sample tested was said to be about 130 million years
old.
Arguments &
Objections
The only
argument given (and a very poor one) is the idea that some amber bubbles don't
contain such high levels of oxygen. Notice that this argument is identical to
the one in reference to large insects ... that is, "that not all fossil
insects are of large proportions." As stated earlier, so we'll state again.
This argument fails to deal with the samples that do contain higher oxygen
levels. Furthermore, it is easier to make sense of amber bubbles that contain
lower oxygen levels, as leakage could have taken place. However, endeavoring to
make sense of amber bubbles that contain more oxygen is indeed rather a more
difficult task.
The sun could never get through early Earth’s atmosphere to get plants to grow to release free oxygen 750-milllion years ago because the air was 2,800 miles deep. It took the power of a white dwarf putting out 100+ times the UV of our sun to make all the coal, oil and limestone on Earth. It also took a lot of CO2. Coal formed during the Carboniferous is over 100 feet thisck some places. Hard coal is formed from plants with a 40 to one comprssion ratio. It took over 4000 feet of plant carbon to form 100 fee of coal. If you want to know what the early atmosphere was like simply tally up all the metric tons of coal, oil and limestone and turn it back into CO2.
The doubling of the Earth's size is due to two factors, incoming material and mid ocean volcanic rifts. The expansion can be measured by measuring the distance between the Hawaiian Islands on Google Earth. The Hawaiian islands are formed by one volcanic hot spot. As the Earth expands it forms a new island. First type in Age of Hawiian Islands. Subtract the age of the big island Hawaii 400,000 years from Kawaii. Divide the distance in inches by the age difference and you get an expansion of the Pacific plates of 5-inches per year. Take it from there…
By the way, where do you think all the carbon on earth came from? The sun dosn’t make carbon. It is a middle aged star. It takes a giant red star to make carbon and iron. Hint! Sirius B at 8.5 LY was 6 solar masses before it became a white dwarf of 1.4 solar masses. We are traveling toward the 3.5 solar mass Sirius A and B at 7.5 kilometers per second and accelerating due to the galaxy mass and other stars in the area… We made 58 orbits aroud these objects within the last 3-million years.
It was the additional light and heat from thes objects that created our coal, oil and limestone on Earth. When you are driving your car down the road or heating your house you are recycling stellar energy that didn’t come from the sun… Most of the free oxygen you are currently sucking into your lungs wasn’t made by sunlight. It came from the objects we are in orbit around. To disccover when we got captured by the Sirius multiple star system read the book…
Humans are not from this planet. If you don’t believe me take off all your cloths and go into the woods to see how long you will last. Where is the fossil record for modern humans? The Eloheim or Anunnaki genetically engineered man to survive on this planet. We have 98% of the DNA of a chimp–only two less chromosomes. One is missing and two are fused together to make man. The Gods departed giving mankind dominion over all the planet. When they return to find that half the plant and animal species are extinct, half the plankton in the oceans is missing, 2/3rds the rainforests have been cut down and the atmospher is radioactive due to the many thousands of nuclear bombs that were exploded and various reactor melt downs there will be Hell to pay…
We are not seeing any coal, oil or limestone being made right now from sunlight because earth is still in the Ice Age with average golbal temperatures of 32 degrees F.
Right now the atmosphere is only 60-miles deep. We have lost 98% of our atmosphere on this planet AKA radiation and meteor shield. Get ready for the next big one! We need to become conscious and seed life in other biospheres off this planet.
