... should help guide the spacecraft, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, through a series of shock waves and a massive "wall" in space nearly two decades from now, says Zank, an associate professor at Bartol and a leading theoretical astrophysicist. Ongoing studies of Earth's "cocoon" might someday reveal whether close encounters with cosmic clouds cause periodic extinctions, according to Zank, who earned a National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator Award in 1993 and a Zeldovich Medal in 1996. "We're surrounded by hot gas," Zank notes. "As our sun moves through extremely empty' or low-density interstellar space, the solar wind produces a protective bubble- the heliosphere around our solar system ...

384. Dr. Robert Schoch: Voices of the Rocks [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... from Amazon.com: Everything changes. The great 19th-century battle between catastrophists and uniformitarians seemed to end with the notion of global cataclysms being dismissed as a back door to the supernatural. But the catastrophist theory has gradually become more and more plausible, so that now, less than a hundred years later, it is widely believed that mass extinctions are linked to meteor strikes. Geologist Robert M. Schoch believes that if a large meteor or comet could extinguish most of our planet's complex life (just ask the trilobites), then a smaller one could destroy a civilization, and perhaps did. In Voices of the Rocks, he tells us how it may have happened. Asked ...

... would have set' since they may have vanished from view before touching the western horizon; though they appear as a prominent compact group of stars even to the untrained eye, their brightest member is a third magnitude star. Modern observations (Thom 1967) reveal that, under the best observing conditions for viewing objects along the horizon, the extinction angle (the altitude above the western horizon at which an object would vanish from view) in degrees is approximately equivalent to the magnitude of the stellar object. Thus, the Pleiades should be invisible well before they reach the horizon of Teotihuacan, e.g ., if the group could no longer be discerned at a 2 ½ ...

... From: Kronos Vol. VII No. 4 (Summer 1982) "Evolution, Extinction, and Catastrophism" Home | Issue Contents How To Defuse A Feud Norman Macbeth This country has long been plagued by an acrimonious controversy between two large segments of the population. Evolution, if it is taught at all in high schools and colleges, is apt to be taught on the basis of textbooks that portray evolution and natural selection as demonstrable scientific facts. The creationists (supported by the Moral Majority) object to this situation, contending that equal time or balanced treatment should be given to their view that everything was created by divine powers. The evolutionists (supported by the American ...

... implications of your overall theory. Because of the limits of time, I did not have the opportunity to explain clearly enough the points I raised. I am afraid that some, perhaps even you, may have misunderstood. For many years I have been very disenchanted with the current theories of evolution as well as those dealing with fossilization, extinction, geological processes, etc. Other biologists have argued at length with me basing their position on the claim that there is no other possible alternative. They, of course, object to individual special creation, and catastrophic evolution hardly ever enters into the discussion as a real possibility. The point I was trying to make in my comments ...

... 8 , 9, 10). Evidence has been presented which indicates that the earth was extensively affected by interactions of the earth and an external body. Dorrani and Khan (11, 12) have suggested this as a cause of the reversal of the earth's magnetic field. They mention a correlation of the deposition of tektites, widespread faunal extinctions, climatic changes and maxima of volcanic activity at the reversal about 700,000 years ago. Some of the planets may have originated from one or more of the larger planets, and comets may originate from the larger planets and their satellites. In 1960, Lyttleton (13) described conditions under which Jupiter would become unstable and would ...
