 CRETACEOUS IMPACT SIMILAR TO TUNGUSKA 1908

The importance of the Tunguska meteorite is it simulated what happened in the fossil record during the Flood at the KT boundary. This meteorite exploded in the air and only left microscopic rare element traces similar to the KT Boundary. NASA/Astrophysics data system confirmed this in a published paper:

Nanodiamonds and Carbon Spherules from Tunguska, the K/T Boundary, and the Younger Dryas Boundary Layer Wittke, J. H.; Bunch, T. E.; West, A.; Kennett, J.; Kennett, D. J.; Howard, G. A. American Geophysical Union, Fall Meeting 2009, abstract #PP31D-1392

“Firestone et al. (2007) and Kennett et al. (2008, 2009) proposed that these markers resulted from a cosmic impact/airburst and impact-related biomass burning. Here we report features common to the YDB event, the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K/T) impact, and the Tunguska airburst of 1908. In sediments attributed to each event, we and other researchers have recovered NDs either inside or closely associated with CS, which appear to be the high-temperature by-products of biomass burning. CS range in diameter from about 500 nanometers to 4 millimeters with a mean of ~100 microns, and they typically contain NDs, including lonsdaleite (hexagonal diamonds), in the interior matrix and in the crust. To date, CS and NDs have been found in the K/T layer in the United States, Spain, and New Zealand.”

Very interesting, they confirm my theory that there was both air burst and ground impact, which I believe were multiple impacts. Diamonds are sometimes found in carbonaceous condrite meteorites. And microscopic diamonds are created by pressure on carbon commonly found in these carbonaceous meteorites.

CRETACEOUS ASTEROID IMPACT CAUSED MASSIVE WORLWIDE WILD FIRES

The asteroid’s fireball created huge amounts of burned charcoal in the fossil record associated with huge fires. I have commonly found charcoal wood at many marine fossil sites in California. Here is another reference to burning vegetation found in the fossil record at the Paluxy River Cretaceous dinosaur track and bone site near Glen Rose, Texas.

Here is the original account:

"I was looking for more tracks around what is commonly called the number two crossing, a section of the river, adjacent to the Robert Mack farm, where there are many dinosaur tracks. In the same formation as the dinosaur tracks, about 200 meters [218.6 yd] downstream from them, we found a charred branch from a tree embedded in the Cretaceous rock. The branch was about 2 inches [5.08 cm] in diameter and 7 feet [21.34 dm] long. It had apparently fallen into the soft mud-like material which later became limestone; and, while the branch was burning, it had quickly been buried, but had continued to smolder for some time, thus being converted into charcoal, and had remained when the mud hardened into limestone."—Fredrick P. Beierle, "A New Kind of Evidence from the Paluxy," in Creation Research Society Quarterly, September 1979, p. 87. This is also quoted in the book Ancient Man.

The Planetary Science Institute is a Non-profit research organization based in Tucson, Arizona, focusing on planetary science published an article in 2013 that states in The Impact that Wiped Out the Dinosaurs, Web page designed by W. K. Hartmann and Daniel C. Berman web site psi.edu confirms an impact did wipe out the dinosaurs and gives a list of evidence:

1.     The iridium excess in the 65 My-old soil layer has been confirmed at many points around the world.
2.     The same soil layer contains grains of quartz that were deformed by high shock pressures, as would occur in a giant explosion. (The deformation is a microscopic structure called "twinning," in the crystals).
3.     The same soil layer contains enough soot to correspond to burning down all of the forests of the world. This suggests that massive fires were touched off at the time of impact.
4.     The same soil layer, especially around the Gulf of Mexico, contains massive deposits of tumbled boulders, as would be generated in a
5.     large tsunami, or "tidal wave." The geographic distribution of tsunami deposits suggest the impact was in the Caribbean area.
6.     After a decade of searching, scientists in 1990 identified the crater associated with this material. It is no longer visible on the surface of the Earth, but is buried under sediments. It straddles the coast of Yucatan. It is revealed by mapping the strength of the gravity field over that area, and by drilling; it has been dated to 65 million years old.

Many new craters are being found buried deep in the earth. This is no surprise, because all solid bodies in the solar system have massive amounts of craters, therefore earth has them too.

HUGE CRATERS ON THE MOON IGNORED BY ASTRONOMERS

An interesting observation. Astronomers never mention the fact that there are huge craters on the moon that can be seen without a telescope, with the naked eye. They appear as dark areas called seas, these are created by flood basalt flows caused by huge asteroid impacts. Take a look at a photo of the moon. Notice the huge round areas almost the size of half the United States filled with basalt lava. Notice the craters with explosion lines crossing half the surface of the moon. If any of these had hit earth it would have been larger than the Cretaceous Chicxulub Crater. Yet they are common on the moon and other planets and their satellites. This is because the earth had a worldwide flood that erased and/or buried these craters created just before and during the Flood. Tektite strewn fields are associated with impacts after the Flood because they are all deposited on the surface.

 Notice the huge dark circles. These are huge craters filled with basalt.
 Masses of creates everywhere, except for those buried in lava flows.
 Notice the marks caused by lava flowing out of craters.
      
 Volcanism on the Moon By Robert Wickman
volcano.oregonstate.edu/oldroot/volcanoes/...volcano/lunar/Overview.ht...
Current Volcano Activity Reports, Find Volcanoes, Lessons and Educator Resources: Learn about Volcanology, Frequently Asked Questions...

Evolutionary astronomers believe volcanism on the moon occurred 3 to 4 billion years ago when they assume the solar system formed and was produce by the largest impacts of asteroids unlike volcanoes on earth which they claim are caused by movement of continental plates and upthrust mountains. On the moon basalt oozes out of huge craters, on earth from mountain ranges. The last occurred about 1 billion years ago they claim. Since then there has been no volcanic activity on the moon. However, there have been 28 large shallow moon quakes up to 5.5 on the Richter scale recorded between 1972 and 1977 by Apollo seismographs, there cause unknown because evolutionists assume the moon is volcanically dead. I have heard that some hot lava has been seen on the moon by amateur astronomers, but has not been verified. I believe this indicates that the moon is still hot inside, but there have not been any large impacts to release it. And it indicates the moon is not as old as they claim, and they are not willing to admit that.
This seems to match what we see on earth. Huge impacts followed by many more smaller ones. These impacts, if you believe the Bible occurred on the moon and earth within the last 5 thousand to 4 thousand years.

I believe that if the moon has been visited in the past by aliens, or by man they would leave trackways like those left by our astronauts. An astronaut I know personally told me they looked for tracks, but there were none. I believe him. However, I believe it is possible that man may have reached Mars and the Moon thousands of years ago before and after the Flood, and they would have left tracks and artifacts. I think if there is anything left on these planets they were buried in the massive impacts and eruptions at the time of the Flood and afterward in the time of Babel.

 The tracks of boulders are seen on the moon. I suggest that this indicates moon quakes. there is no atmosphere or weather to cause this. Tracks here will last for centuries.
 Here are the tracks of our astronauts and their vehicle.

FOSSIL VOLCANOES ARE MISSING!

In spite of the massive material from volcanic eruptions in the fossil record the volcanoes themselves are missing like the meteorite craters on earth, and is puzzling to evolutionists. I believe this goes along with the fact that there are no valleys or large uneven land surfaces found in the geologic record. There are some rivers and small depressions caused by flowing water where there are breaks called unconformities and you can see surface features like tracks and massive death layers like in the shale fish fossil beds.

 These are from the Post-Flood Green River Formation Eocene strata in Wyoming. They are found in death layers.
 Geology.com says these were found in  mass death layers in Green River shale.

But there are no large canyons like we see today at the Grand Canyon and other places.  There are no mountains or plateaus. Most of the geologic records surfaces are almost dead level. This proves the geologic record is not a record of millions of years of history, but rather one long worldwide catastrophic event.

 Would sediment be deposited flat for millions of years? Do you see any missing surface for millions of years here? Does this indicate this was a slow deposit, or a rapid deposit over a short time. Remember sediment must be carried by rapidly moving water.

MAGNITUDE OF TUNGUSKA EXPLOSION

As for the 1908 explosion in Tunguska it released 10 to 20 megatons about 2 miles above the earth. It exploded in the atmosphere like most comets and carbonaceous chondrite stony meteorites. A paper published by NASA Ames Research center in Moffet Field California department of physics and astronomy University of Wisconsin by researchers Christopher F. Chyba, Paul J. Thomas, and Kevin J. Zahnle tell us, possibility that a similar meteor could once again enter Earth's atmosphere, but this time, land on a populated area. The result would be catastrophic.

CHELYABINSK METEORITE OF 2013

Since I wrote the above report, another meteorite did hit close to the same area as the one in 1908! My article in my Internet newsletter Biblical Science News at Yahoo Groups says,

A meteor the size of a bus exploded in the atmosphere over the Russian Urals city of Chelyabinsk Friday, February 15, 2013, terrifying thousands with blinding light flashes and powerful sonic booms that shattered windows, damaged buildings, and caused injuries. Over 1,000 people were injured and hundreds of houses and buildings were damaged by shockwaves generated by the explosion, mainly due to flying glass and debris.”

RESULTS OF CHELYABINSK METEORITE ANALYSIS
The meteor was formed of chondrite breccias, with a stony composition common to most of the stony meteorites (siderite) that land on Earth, according to an initial chemical analysis by Russian scientists. Siderites are more common that iron (aerolite) meteoroids in space, but more aerolite iron make it to the earth’s surface, because they do not breakup as much, or have volatiles in them causing them to explode like atomic bombs. This meteor exploded equivalent to 30 Hiroshima atomic bombs.

news.nationalpost.com/ Richard Gray, The Telegraph | 09/08/13

Researchers have analyzed the path of the meteor and have traced it to a 656ft wide asteroid called 2011 EO40. This asteroid regularly crosses the path of the Earth as it orbits the Sun and is considered a potential danger. The asteroid is breaking apart, caused by gravitational stress from the planets and the Sun, or because of a collision by another asteroid.

Asteroids sometimes collide creating meteorite brecha, rough broken pieces. These kind of meteorites show cracks in them from an impact in space.

A NASA publication below says the, Chelyabinsk meteorite was a carbonaceous chondrite like the ones that hit in 1908, the one that hit during the Younger Dryas Boundary Layer during the Post-Flood Pleistocene dated at 13 thousand in Carbon-14 years (Post-Flood corrected to about 4 thousand from the creation viewpoint). It appears we may have a discovery here. Another asteroid impact may have been the cause of another worldwide catastrophe after the Flood which caused a sudden worldwide drop in temperature, then 13 hundred years later a rapid rise in temperature. I have considered this but have not found any evidence till just now this minute.

WORLDWIDE POST-FLOOD CATACLYSM DISCOVERED

Here is the reference to this Pleistocene Post-Flood Dryas event:
NASA/Astrophysics data system Nanodiamonds and Carbon Spherules from Tunguska, the K/T Boundary, and the Younger Dryas Boundary Layer Wittke, J. H.; Bunch, T. E.; West, A.; Kennett, J.; Kennett, D. J.; Howard, G. A. American Geophysical Union, Fall Meeting 2009, abstract #PP31D-1392
This is a follow up posting to Younger Dryas -The Rest of the Story! Guest post by Don J. Easterbrook Dept. of Geology, Western Washington University.
“The Younger Dryas was a period of rapid cooling in the late Pleistocene 12,800 to 11,500 calendar (Note: According to evolution) years ago. It followed closely on the heels of a dramatically abrupt warming that brought the last Ice Age to a close 17,500 calendar years ago, lasted for about 1,300 years, then ended as abruptly as it started.  The cause of these remarkably sudden climate changes has puzzled geologists and climatologists for decades and despite much effort to find the answer, can still only be considered enigmatic.”
I have been seeking information on this anomalous Post-Flood catastrophic event too. What caused the sudden extinction of Pleistocene mammals froze tropical mammoths in Alaska and Siberia, formed the ice caps, caused mountains to rise, buried mammals in gravel all over the earth, caused men’s life spans to drop by 1/3rd, caused tidal waves, and separated the continents over 300 years after the Flood? It has disturbed me that some creationists insist that this is part of the Flood event, or directly after the Flood. Geology, Archaeology, and the Bible prove this is false. But what caused the cataclysm, and what kind of cataclysm? The above quote continued below.
“The Younger Dryas interruption of the global warming that resulted in the abrupt, wholesale melting of the huge late Pleistocene ice sheets was first discovered in European pollen studies about 75 years ago. Terrestrial plants and pollen indicate that arboreal forests were replaced by tundra vegetation during a cool climate. This cool period was named after the pale yellow flower Dryas octopetella, an arctic wildflower typical of cold, open, Arctic environments. The Younger Dryas return to a cold, glacial climate was first considered to be a regional event restricted to Europe, but later studies have shown that it was a world-wide event. The problem became even more complicated when oxygen isotope data from ice cores in Antarctica and Greenland showed not only the Younger Dryas cooling, but several other shorter cooling/warming events, now known as Dansgaard-Oerscher events.”
It appears that the scientists are reluctant to see a connection between the carbonaceous chondrite impact during the Dryas Post-Flood period and the sudden drop in temperature.
BACK TO THE 2013 CHELYAINSK METEORITE

Viktor Grokhovsky, a professor at Ural Federal University and member of the Russian Academy of Sciences’ Committee on Meteorites, led an expedition to retrieve remnants of the meteor that survived the plunge through Earth’s atmosphere. Grokhovsky says that the fragments his group analyzed at the university contain magnesium-rich chrysolite and sulfite, and are about 10% iron/nickel alloy. His group plans further analyses to fully characterize the meteorites.

The 10,000-ton meteor was 55 feet across and is the largest reported since the 1908 Tunguska meteor strike in Siberia.

ANOTHER RUSSIAN METEORITE SIKHOTE-ALAN

And this is not all. Here is another. I have some pieces of this meteorite. They look like shrapnel, or damaged iron bullets. Norton, O. Richard says,

Sikhote-Alin is an iron meteorite that fell in 1947 on the Sikhote-Alin Mountains in eastern Siberia. Though large iron meteorite falls had been witnessed previously and fragments recovered, never before in recorded history had a fall of this magnitude been observed.[1] An estimated 70 tonnes of material survived the fiery passage through the atmosphere and reached the Earth.[2]

Evolutionists speculate that grass evolved and began to cover the earth about 40 million years ago sometime in the Eocene after dinosaurs became extinct for 25 million years. They claim grass is an Index fossil identifying the Cenozoic. This contradicts the Bible which says God created Leviathan and Behemoth in the beginning among the cattle, with grass.
Genesis 1:24

“24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. 25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

Job 40:15

“Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee;
he eateth grass as an ox.”



He created them all to eat only plants because the soil was so rich it produced all elements that an organism would need. After the fall it became depleted and some animals became carnivores due to this as well as their fallen nature. In the Garden of Eden there was no death, or disease. Our depleted soils make it necessary to take vitamin/mineral supplements. An herbalist once said, If you don’t take supplements in the proper amounts, you will not live long. I have proven this personally. And that God’s herbs heal, when man’s drugs fail and have side effects.
Man was told to eat meat after the Flood, because the soil had become poorer by being leached during the Flood causing the oceans to become enriched in minerals. This is what it means when it says God cursed the ground. This is why we have to take supplements; it also explains why kelp is as valuable as a fertilizer and as a supplement.


Kelp is not a plant it is identified as eukaryotic algae. Like the Duckbilled
platypus which is not related to anything we know of but has characteristics of reptiles, birds, mammals, amphibians. This is further evidence that things did not evolve from a common ancestor but were created individually by a common designer.

DINOSAURS ATE GRASS

Dinosaurs were created among the cattle which eat grass. Evolutionists claim that grass appeared after they became extinct. But the Bible is always found to be correct when science disagrees with it.

“11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.”

The American Association for the Advancement of Science published Dinosaurs Dined on Grass in their journal Science by Dolores R. Piperno and Hans-Dieter Sues 18 NOVEMBER 2005 VOL 310 Page 1126 found at www.sciencemag.org

“However, the possible coevolution of grasses and dinosaurs has never been studied. Now, Prasad et al. (1) report on page 1177 of this issue their analysis of phytoliths—microscopic pieces of silica formed in plant cells—in coprolites (fossil manure) that the authors attribute to titanosaurid sauropods (Note: Sauropod/Behemoth) that lived in central India about 65 to 71 million years ago. Their data indicate that those dinosaurs ate grasses.”

I believe that Satan spoke to Eve as a dinosaur not a snake. Genesis states that all animals were created during creation week and the only place that dinosaurs fit is where it refers to the creation of cattle. This is not surprising since it says they were all created to eat plants at first. So evidence of Satan possessing a dinosaur which ate grass is found in Genesis 3:14:
“14 And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all CATTLE…”



LIFESPANS LASTING HUNDREDS OF YEARS

The Bible says people lived an average of 900 years, and the earth was a perfect tropical paradise. 


The Bible indicates the Pre-Flood world had what some have called a vapor canopy. This has been disputed because some claim the collapse of this canopy could not cause a worldwide flood covering the highest mountains. The collapse of the canopy did not cause the Flood, it only cause the 40 days and forty nights of torrential rain. It was the opening of the fountains of the deep, water stored in the earth under pressure that raised the ocean levels and caused continent crossing tidal waves. The canopy vapor or whatever it was only protected the earth from harmful radiation from space that reduced life spans and changed the weather and increased the atmospheric pressure with greater amounts of oxygen and Carbon Dioxide. Evidence indicates that both the canopy and fountains of the deep were destroyed or damaged by explosions and impacts of asteroids, as well as geysers from the burst subterranean water reservoirs.
Since we know that the Mesozoic strata were formed at the end of the Pre-Flood world we can seek the evidence there. Evolutionary paleontologists have claimed there must have been lots of diseases among the dinosaurs, however if the Bible is correct living things would be more healthy:

Dr. Bruce M. Rothschild professor of medicine at the Northeastern Ohio Universities College of Medicine and professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Akron; also a research associate at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History and the University of Kansas Museum of Natural History tells us in an article in Scientific American October 21, 1999 Do we know anything about the kinds of diseases that affected dinosaurs?:

"The most famous claim of disease in dinosaurs relates to osteoarthritis, previously referred to as degenerative joint disease. This claim was the precipitating factor for my entry to the fascinating field of paleopathology. Researchers routinely asserted that osteoarthritis was common in dinosaurs, and I simply wanted to illustrate a lecture. My search and x-ray studies failed to identify a single example, until I saw the famous fossils of an Iguanodon herd in Brussels. Two herd members had osteoarthritis of the ankle. To date, they are the only identified dinosaurs that show signs of osteoarthritis.”

"The question of what diseases affected dinosaurs is an intriguing one. Actually, dinosaurs may have been healthier than people are today. As far as we can tell from the fossil record, disease was relatively rare among most dinosaurs.”

Rothschild tells us diseases were rare, broken bones were also rare; wounds were more common especially among the carnivorous theropods. This is exactly what the Bible indicates.

This atmospheric shield made a more favorable environment for life before the catastrophe. This explains the huge amount of plant material in coal deposits; plants were carried then dropped by moving water forming massive coal deposits with few contaminants. Like the pure salt deposits, diatomite, etc. which only happens in catastrophic flooding under un-natural conditions. If these were deposited over millions of years, or even tens of years they would be mixed with all kinds of sediment and would not be so massive and pure. This proves sorting of material over a wide area over a short time. In fact the fossil record is made up of water deposited sediment, which has to be carried by rapidly moving water, which is deposited when it slows down. Almost all fossil deposits are made up of sediment, the word sediment itself means water deposited.

The atmospheric shield also makes radioactive dating inaccurate; it causes radioactive dating to give older dates than they really are. They measure the difference between the parent element and its daughter element it deteriorates into. The problem is the assumed daughter element may have been re-deposited from elsewhere, or it was created and did not come from radioactive breakdown, and the water catastrophe ignored by evolutionists contaminated the samples.

NO MAJOR CATACLYSMS ACCORDING TO LYELL

Not too long ago Darwinian atheists claimed that there were NO world-wide cataclysms. Since Charles Lyell published his Principles of Geology and Charles Darwin founded his theory on it. But like many evolutionary ideas, this was found to be false and had to be revised when new evidence of an asteroid/comet impact left evidence in an iridium layer at the top of the Mesozoic/Cretaceous strata, the KT Boundary above dinosaur deposits.

BLAST FROM THE PAST

When the agnostic Theistic Evolutionist Immanuel Velikovsky, a Russian-Jewish psychiatrist and independent scholar (Russian: Иммануи́л Велико́вский) published his book Earth in Upheaval, the atheistic Darwinian scientific establishment went berserk, accusing him of being an amateur non-scientist crackpot. However, this was before they began to see merit in what he said when the Alvarez hypothesis became acceptable to main stream evolutionists. Here is what Wikipedia has to say:

“Alvarez hypothesis posits that the mass extinction of the dinosaurs and many other living things was caused by the impact of a large asteroid on the Earth sixty-five million years ago, called the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event or KT Boundary. Evidence indicates that the asteroid fell in the Yucatán Peninsula, at Chicxulub (pronounced CHIC SHAL LUBE). The hypothesis is named after the father-and-son team of scientists, physicists Luis and Walter Alvarez, who first suggested it in 1980 after making several discoveries. In March 2010 an international panel of scientists endorsed the asteroid hypothesis, specifically the Chicxulub impact, as being the cause of the extinction. A team of 41 scientists reviewed 20 years of scientific literature and in so doing also ruled out other theories such as massive volcanism. They determined that a 10–15 km (6–9 mi) space rock hurtled into earth at Chicxulub. The rock's size could be approximately the entire size of Martian moon Deimos (mean radius 6.2 km); the collision would have released the same energy as 100 teratonnes of TNT, over a billion times the energy of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

SATELLITES OF MARS ARE CARBONACEOUS CHONDRITE ASTEROIDS?

Technical papers by J. B. Pollack, Planetary satellites. (A77-40972 19-91) Tucson, University of Arizona Press, 1977, p. 319-344; Discussion, p. 344, 345. NASA-supported research tells us about Phobos & Deimos, “Photometric measurements suggest that they are made of either carbonaceous chondritic material or basalt.” Sinclair (1972), Born and Duxbury (1975) and Shor (1975).

This technical paper confirms these satellites of Mars are made of the same common stony material that made up the asteroid that created the KT Boundary, as well as the 1908 meteorite that exploded in the air above the Tunguska wilderness in Siberia. And stony chondrites are the most common meteoroids in space but fewer of them reach the ground compared to the rare irons.

TUNGUSKA METEORITE OF 1908

The giant Siberian explosion at 7:14 a.m. on June 30, 1908, shook central Siberia. Witnesses described seeing a fireball in the sky, as bright and hot as the sun. Millions of trees fell and the ground shook. Several scientists investigated it years later in 1920, but for many decades it remained a mystery as to what caused the explosion. When I read a book about it I came to the conclusion it produced the same rare elements found in the KT boundary and was therefore a carbonaceous chondrite. So why did it remain a mystery? Was it because they knew it would confirm that there had been an impact that could have caused the extinction at the KT boundary, which they didn’t want to accept? The Siberian impact is estimated to have been a thousand times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima. However, if the blast was caused by a carbonaceous chondrite comet or meteor entering the Earth's atmosphere, they realized that it posed a lethal threat in the future.



My paraphrase: The interesting thing about the 1908 Tunguska event is it exploded in the air and left only meteorite dust, rare elements not commonly found on earth. Along with glass spherules (tiny glass tektites). Some local geochemical anomalies were discovered at the epicenter of the Tunguska explosion. Substantial shifts in isotopic compositions of carbon, hydrogen, lead, cobalt, copper, titanium, and other elements were found (Dmitriev & Zhuravlev, 1984; Vasilyev, 1995)
Society for Scientific Exploration from Edge of Science tells us:

“The soil is also enriched with rare earths (samarium, europium, terbium, ytterbium, gadolinium, etc), as well as with barium.”

Journal of Geophysical Research Volume 68, Issue 3, pages 911–917, 1 February 1963 confirms these are rare earth elements found in meteorites proving the Tunguska 1908 event was a meteorite, but still doesn’t explain why no one for a long time would not accept this explanation. One Russian theory claimed it was an alien space ship!

METEOR CRATER CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF BIAS

Meteor Crater is a classic example of this situation of evolutionary bias when fact opposes theory, facts are rejected. Professor Herman Leroy Fairchild was the first to research the Arizona meteorite impact area and found iron meteorites all over the ground, but the scientific community ridiculed his conclusions, because it didn’t fit Charles Lyell’s uniformitarian theory of evolution and accepted the volcanic explosion hypothesis. Fairchild’s original results were published in Science which cased an uproar. It was almost a 100 years before the evolutionists would admit the obvious
truth – this is the normal course of ‘scientific’ progress. Usually it is a lone brave researcher that goes against the consensus opinion that turns out to be right.^
 Fairchild, H.L. (1930). "Nature and fate of the Meteor Crater bolide". Science 72 (1871): 463–466. Bibcode:1930Sci....72..463F. doi:10.1126/science.72.1871.463. PMID 17800007.



When iron meteorites were found lying all over the ground around the crater by mining engineer Daniel Barringer in 1903, he bought the crater to mine for the very valuable rare metal platinum common in iron meteorites.

However, no professional scientist would accept his meteorite theory. In spite of the fact that at the time of the crater’s first discovery by Europeans in the early 19th century, the surrounding plains were covered with about 30 tons of large oxidized iron meteorite fragments.

In spite of this, evolutionists claimed it was a volcanic explosion that formed the crater. They accepted conclusions by Grove Karl Gilbert, chief geologist for the U.S. Geological Survey, who investigated the crater in 1891 and deliberately concluded that it was the result of a volcanic steam explosion in spite of the over whelming evidence of meteorite impact. Gilbert claimed to assume that if it were an impact crater then the volume of the crater, as well as meteoritic material, should be present on the rim. He was as dumb as I was when I could not find any meteorite material after I hiked all the way down to the pit in the center. I only found white chalky white rock ‘flower’ pulverized by the impact. Then I saw an illustration in the museum, and I said, “That’s it, all the meteorite material was blasted in all directions outside the crater.” Sure enough I went outside the crater rim and found a rusty oxidized meteorite fragment every 10 feet. About 1903 the crater was officially named by the traditional method of naming it after the nearest Post Office, which by coincidence was Meteor! Did somebody know something the scientists didn’t? Before that it was called Canyon Diablo. Meteorites are often considered by native people to be a god or Satan cast out of heaven so this area was named Diablo which means Satan the accuser.

Evolution scientists claimed at the time of impact, the area was open grassland dotted with woodlands inhabited by woolly mammoths and giant ground sloths during the Pleistocene about 50 thousand years ago when the climate on the Colorado Plateau was much cooler and damper. They claim it was probably not inhabited by humans; the earliest confirmed accepted record of human habitation in the Americas dates from long after this impact. However, it has been proven that man did come to American thousands of years before the evolutionists will admit, just after their scattering from the Tower of Babel about 1980 BC. And native people attribute stars falling from heaven to be gods or devils, and often claim the site to be taboo, or a sacred site. It was the native peoples who told the early Europeans that something fell from heaven here, so the Spanish named it Diablo the Devil. I do not accept the evolutionary date and believe this impact was about the time of Peleg’s division described in the Bible when the earth was divided.

It wasn’t till 1955 before the evolutionist establishment were forced to admit the truth. A classic example of how science works. This is called consensus or majority rule, the Bible refers to it as “science falsely so called” in I Timothy 6:20. Some scientists continued to argue that it was volcanic eight more years till 1963!

Arizona’s Meteorite Crater was the first meteorite crater to be recognized by the scientific establishment. The second one was the Odessa Meteorite Crater in Texas. 

MY DISCOVERY OF CRATERS AT METEOR CRATER

I visited the Arizona’s Meteor Crater in 1992 which is 3900 feet in diameter. As I stood on the crater rim looking north I looked for other craters and I saw what appeared to be one out to the left.

This is a small crater north of the main Meteor Crater which I discovered,which has not been revealed to the public.


This is a closeup of the crater I found north of the main Meteor Crater which has not been revealed to the public. Notice the upraised rim proving it is an impact crater.




 This is another small crater south of Meteor Crater I discovered, and you can faintly see the small crater below and to the left of the main crater.


  
Here is a closeup of that miniature crater also not revealed to the public. Notice the upraised rims proving it is an impact crater.

Searching satellite photos researching for this book I discovered there is indeed another crater that is an exact miniature of the large main crater. But it was in the other direction from the main crater. It is 3000 feet south of the main crater and is 300 feet in diameter!
Then I discovered in the satellite photos that there is another crater where I observed it from the main crater’s rim north west of the main crater 1400 feet west of Meteor Crater Road 3.5 miles from the main crater which is 375 feet in diameter!

I searched in vain but found no references to other craters at this site. I wrote the above account a year ago. Yesterday I looked up Meteor Crater and was surprised to see a photo facing south at a high angle and I clearly saw a small crater to the south and beyond the big crater. I recognized its position, size, and the curved road that loops across its western rim. It was the crater I had discovered! Today I searched through all the photos I could find to see it again and they all avoid that area, or the resolution and small size hide this crater, almost like it was deliberate. I did find another photo at FossWeb.com featured on Google titled Barringer Crater which is a photo from The Planetary Science Institute a Non-profit research organization based in Tucson, Arizona. You faintly see the small crater in the background.

MY DISCOVERY OF CRATERS AT ODESSA METEORITE CRATER

I have also visited the Meteor Crater in Odessa, Texas.

The references above explain that: The main Odessa crater is 0.17 km (550 feet) in diameter. There are at least four small craters which associated with the main Odessa Crater confirmed in the literature. However, most of the references do not mention them, and those who do give no information. It has been proposed that Meteor Crater, Arizona may have been part of the same fall as the Odessa meteorites both dated by evolutionists at 50,000 years ago which would be about the time of the Tower of Babel and Peleg 4000 years ago. Both these impacts were Post-Flood.

One of the best complete references to Odessa is The Handbook of Texas Online which describes the Odessa meteor crater as the largest of several (Note: All other references who mention other craters, only say there are four craters.) smaller craters in the immediate area that were formed by the impact of thousands of octahedrites (an iron metallic type) that fell during the Pleistocene,[2]  when Tar Pit animals deposited by catastrophic flood impacts in Los Angeles California. When it says thousands of octahedrite meteorites it indicates there should be thousands of craters!

When I visited in 2000 I explored this site for a half day, before there was a museum, and there was no one there. I observed a one foot shatter dome shaped like a small pyramid along one of the trails (a rock fractured into a pyramid by the blast), I saw rock flower pulverized by the impact, I found several meteorite fragments, and one was lying in front of one of the signs on the trail. There was an up-thrust rim of sedimentary rock blasted from 30 feet below ground creating tilted marine Cretaceous bedrock filled with masses of fossil marine oysters. This crater was formed in Cretaceous rock during the Flood, the impact was over 100 years later, and then the crater was filled with Pleistocene alluvium containing Pleistocene mammal bones from Post-Flood horse and elephants buried in another cataclysm.

The web site of the University of Texas of the Permian Basin (UTPB, Center for Energy and Economic Diversification [CEED]), identifies five craters and shows a distribution map of the meteorite fragments recovered. Most were found north and northwest of the main crater site, with only a few found to the south. They indicate that the structure of the main crater, because it was one of the earliest to be recognized and studied, is now used to name similar impact sites on a worldwide basis. Over 1500 meteorites have been recovered from the surrounding area over the years, the largest of which weighed approximately 300 pounds (135 kg), but excavations in the main crater confirm that there is no meteorite mass underground and probably never has been just like the crater in Arizona.

"The art of documenting craters as being the result of Meteorite falls is quite a new science," he said. "Even as recently as 1960 geologists were arguing that the vast crater in Arizona was the result of a volcanic gas explosion and that the thousands of meteorite fragments in the vicinity are coincidence. This is just another example of how hard it is for people to accept something. (Note: When the evidence contradicts evolution) The Odessa craters, on the other hand, are the best-documented craters in the world."
"When we sank the shaft, we found fossils of Pleistocene horses and elephant teeth, and the bedrock was still fragmented beneath," he noted. "This gives us some idea of the age, but what we really need to find is fossilized vegetation in the original soil to get carbon dating."

I like to look where other people would not think of looking. I went outside the fence at Odessa and found masses of rusty exfoliating iron masses. They were apparently meteorites weathering on the surface into oxidized fragments. I bought a Nantan meteorite from China which became crumbly and tended to gradually fall apart (exfoliate) which was similar. Then I came across a round area about 35 feet in diameter where no brush was growing surrounded by bushes. It looked like meteor craters I had seen in deserts in Australia, where sand had filled them. There was even a central up-thrust. Then I found an iron oxide in the sand which looked like some iron oxide meteorites I had bought that came from Australia. I also found a knife shaped piece of iron. These iron fragments did not look like any man made object, so I assume they are meteorites.

Iron meteorites can have odd shapes. At the museum I saw a 10 foot iron meteorite shaped like a doughnut.

Then I went outside the fence to the west and was amazed when I found a crater with a rim about 15 to 20 feet in diameter, then I found another, and another. I was very excited. I also found some iron meteorite fragments here and there.
Why do they only discuss the, main crater, why do they say there are 5 craters, and give no information on them?

I am now searching satellite maps of Odessa Texas Meteor Crater to determine what the truth is about what I observed. I discovered that the main crater is 550 feet in diameter. Surrounded by craters 75 foot, 58 foot, 33 foot, down to 12 feet next to main crater outside the fence. There are over 13, one half to one third the diameter of the main crater. You see over 25 larger craters of average 400 feet diameter cover 10 miles around the main crater, one approximately every mile apart. Most of these are North West of the main crater the same as the concentration of the meteorite fragments.

 This is Odessa meteorite crater where the road ends. The blue roofed building is the museum. But notice the same sized crater in the left of the picture. There were many of these scattered all over the area for miles the public is not told about.

This is a closeup of that other crater

Then I found one large crater at Silver Lake, TX which is 3500 feet diameter 150 miles north. I could find no geologic information on this lake, but finally found that they claim it is a man made lake. I don’t know if it is a meteorite crater, but there are two other craters nearby fill with sediment. They could be buried craters; one crater is 450 foot diameter 2250 feet south west of Silver Lake. Then another 500 foot crater is 5500 feet south west of the lake.

Since all the solid bodies in the solar system are covered with hundreds of craters, which includes asteroids and satellites around planets, then there must be just as many that have hit the earth. Of course the atmosphere of earth has burned up most of them so they don’t reach the ground unlike the satellites and some planets. But there should be a lot more craters on earth than we see. Where are they? Of course the worldwide Flood erased or buried most of them like the Manson crater in Iowa. At this time there are now 174 confirmed impact craters on earth, some are buried craters and there are many more that have not been discovered because they are in sedimentary rock below the surface, laid down during the Flood. Since God created everything perfect in the beginning we must assume there were no meteorite impacts between Eden and the beginning of the Flood. This means there were several impacts which triggered the Flood, then others during the Flood, and many after the Flood. Only Post-Flood impacts left clear craters on the surface. Since the Bible shows the earth is only 6 thousand years old, it means there have been a lot more recent impacts than establishment scientists have told us about. In fact due to the recent increase in bolides and impacts, television news has informed us, scientists are beginning to think impacts are more common than they thought! This is an understatement!

 Notice the huge craters filled with dark basalt lava the size of half the United States on the left! The side hidden from us has even more craters. Most of the craters on earth were erased during the Flood.

BIBLE & SCIENCE PROVES MEGA ASTEROID IMPACTS ARE RECENT AND COMMON

Creation scientists would say there is much more cosmic destruction, because all craters with little erosion show they were Post-Flood, which means there are over 174 very large impacts in the last few thousand years! These include Popagai in Siberia Russia which is the same size as Chicxulub at 112 miles in diameter. Those impacts that triggered the Flood, no more than 5 thousand years ago include: Verdefort in South Africa is 187 miles in diameter, Sudbury in Canada is 155 miles, Chicxulub (supposedly killed the dinosaurs) is 112 miles, Mancuagan Canada 62 miles, and there are others. Compare this to Meteor Crater at only ¾ mile, creating total devastation over 5 miles in all directions! The largest unconfirmed crater is in Australia known as Mapcis is 373 miles in diameter. The smallest of the craters are at lest 13 miles in diameter!
Ever since scientists claimed that an asteroid killed the dinosaurs, I realized that this evidence was misinterpreted and misdated. As a creation researcher I knew that most of the fossiliferous strata were deposited about 5 thousand years ago by the Flood containing dinosaurs.

Since then I have been finding evidence that there was another worldwide cataclysm after the Flood and meteorites might have something to do with it. Many occult writers have attributed this to the legend of Atlantis, while atheistic skeptics and some creationists have ignored it.

OVER HALF MILLION (500,000) CRATERS IGNORED BY SCIENCE
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2007, Abstract:

Evidence for an extraterrestrial impact 12,900 years ago that contributed to the megafaunal extinctions and the Younger Dryas cooling

“A carbon-rich black layer, dating to ≈12.9 ka, has been previously identified at ≈50 Clovis-age sites across North America and appears contemporaneous with the abrupt onset of Younger Dryas (YD) cooling. The in situ bones of extinct Pleistocene megafauna, along with Clovis tool assemblages, occur below this black layer but not within or above it. Causes for the extinctions, YD cooling, and termination of Clovis culture have long been controversial. In this paper, we provide evidence for an extraterrestrial (ET) impact event at 12.9 ka, which we hypothesize caused abrupt environmental changes that contributed to YD cooling, major ecological reorganization, broad-scale extinctions, and rapid human behavioral shifts at the end of the Clovis Period. Clovis-age sites in North America is overlain by a thin, discrete layer with varying peak abundances of (i) magnetic grains with iridium, (ii) magnetic microspherules, (iii) charcoal, (iv) soot, (v) carbon spherules, (vi) glass-like carbon containing nanodiamonds, and (vii) fullerenes with ET helium, all of which are evidence for an ET impact and associated biomass burning at ≈12.9 ka. This layer also extends throughout at least 15 Carolina Bays, which are unique, elliptical depressions, oriented to the northwest across the Atlantic Coastal Plain. We propose that one or more large, low-density ET objects exploded over northern North America, partially destabilizing the Laurentide Ice Sheet and triggering YD cooling. The shock wave, thermal pulse, and event-related environmental effects (e.g., extensive biomass burning and food limitations) contributed to end-Pleistocene megafaunal extinctions and adaptive shifts among PaleoAmericans in North America.”
Apr 1, 2013 - Was Atlantis destroyed by an asteroid impact? "It is perfectly reasonable to conclude that if such a cataclysm occurred about 10,000-15,000 BP legends would be told to relate the horror to future generations. Otto Heinrich Muck, a German engineer, who called his book Alles über Atlantis ("All About Atlantis"), published in the German language in 1976 says that in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of the United States,

"The two impact craters are adjacent and are similar in size and shape. Both are roughly oval, and in both, the major axes of the ellipses run from northwest to southeast. This would suggest that the objects that
struck like cosmic shells and gouged out these deep sea-holes came either from the southeast or the northwest."

“This hypothesis was supported by the fact that there were highly magnetic areas concentrated in the southeastern portions of each of the bays (Melton & Schriever, 1933).”
These craters have the same orientation as the Carolina Bays pointing to the same origin as high angle impact craters, and since they are underwater, they could not have formed by water erosion as is claimed for those on the dry land.

“The markers include charcoal and heavy metals, plus the element iridium. Iridium found in a worldwide soot layer deposited 65 million years ago was key to linking dinosaur extinctions to the Chicxulub impact crater under the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico.
Other markers found in the Carolina Bays include spiky glasslike pieces of carbon; fullerenes (bucky balls), which are round objects that resemble soccer balls because of their six-sided pattern; with helium-3 (Author’s Note: Trapped in the balls), an isotope not found naturally on this planet; and hollow balls of carbon.
The clincher, as far as West is concerned, is nanodiamonds,
Diamonds found in the bays and at Clovis archaeological sites across the country are rounded and strangely shaped because they were created within seconds, unlike slow-forming diamonds in the ground. There is, West said, no way to explain it other than an impact. Such diamonds have been found in one other location on Earth: in an oil field surrounding the Chicxulub crater.”
Also, diamonds are found under Popagai asteroid impact crater in Siberia Russia, which is same size as Chicxulub crater but is dated as Eocene, the Popagai impacted terrestrial graphite formed from carbon created by plants during the Flood, this carbon was trans formed into large unusually hard industrial diamonds by the tremendous pressure. This is additional evidence that the Eocene is Post-Flood, because carbon was a Post-Flood deposit. Russia's Popigai Meteor Crash Linked to Mass Extinction www.livescience.com/46312-popigai-crater-linked-eocene-mass-extinction...Jun 13, 2014 - Popigai crater is one of the 10 biggest impact craters on Earth, and in 2012, ... Earlier dating attempts had pinned Popigai's impact age at 35.7 


“Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles precisely dated rocks from beneath the Popigai impact crater in remote Siberia to the Eocene epoch mass extinction that occurred 33.7 million years ago. Popigai crater is one of the 10 biggest impact craters on Earth.”

Why didn’t this Post-Flood impact produce the mass extinction by inundating the continents under the ocean like the one that triggered the Flood? Because there was no more water under pressure inside the earth to flood the dry land called fountains of the deep. This is why God said He created a boundary that the ocean could not cross again. Next time he will use FIRE.

Carolina bays are circular to oval, depressions with a wide range of area and depth are a very common feature in coastal Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, and north central Florida (Prouty 1952, Kaczorowski 1977). They are also common in the Gulf of Mexico coastal plain within Texas and southwest Louisiana. These depressions vary in size from 0.4 to 3.6 km (0.25 to 2 miles) in diameter. Within Harris County, Texas the craters have raised rims, which are about 0.65m (2 ft) high.

 Typical Carolina Bay Meteorite Craters in Carolina.

A carbon rich layer produced by massive fires has been associated with sudden cooling called the Younger Dryas and the end of the Clovis culture which hunted large Pleistocene animals. They have documented the finding of magnetic grains with iridium, magnetic spherules, charcoal, soot, carbon spherules, nanodiamonds, fullenes containing extraterrestrial helium 3, in Carolina Bay craters, at the Dryas boundary, fossil sites with Pleistocene animal bones, and at Clovis archaeological sites across America.

“We propose that one or more large, low-density (Author’s Note: carbonaceous stony) ET objects exploded over northern North America, partially destabilizing the Laurentide Ice Sheet and triggering YD cooling. The shock wave, thermal pulse, and event-related environmental effects (e.g., extensive biomass burning and food limitations) contributed to end-Pleistocene megafaunal extinctions and adaptive shifts among PaleoAmericans in North America.”

It has been estimated that there are 500 thousand craters, over a half million! And many are larger than Meteor Crater. They average between 0.25 (the size of Meteor Crater) to 2 miles in diameter.
