New research supports hypothesis that asteroid contributed to mass extinction

Via Phys.org Wits University A team of scientists from South Africa has discovered evidence partially supporting a hypothesis that Earth was struck by a meteorite or asteroid 12 800 years ago, leading to global consequences including climate change, and contributing to the extinction of many species of large animals at the time of an episode called the Younger Dryas. The […]

Cycles of Global Change – Part 5 – Civilization of the Goddess

Over the course of the last several articles I have been describing the emergence of a goddess worshiping civilization in the aftermath of a powerful series of catastrophes that terminated the great ice age between 11 and 13 thousand years ago. I have presented evidence that human populations may have suffered a significant decline in numbers across the transition, as […]

Cycles of Global Change – Part 4 – The Rise of the Goddess Civilization

This article is the fourth installment in a series describing events that occurred in the four millennia leading up the beginning of recorded history when cuneiform writing first appeared in Sumer about 5000 years ago. As our knowledge of prehistory evolves we are realizing that there is far more to the story than has been recognized by previous generations of […]

A Cataclysmic Event of a Certain Age - Evidence for a Catastrophic Episode 13,000 Years Ago

A Cataclysmic Event of a Certain Age – Evidence for a Catastrophic Episode 13,000 Years Ago

Via Phys.org July 27, 2015 At the end of the Pleistocene period,approximately 12,800 years ago—give or take a few centuries—a cosmic impact triggered an abrupt cooling episode that earth scientists refer to as the Younger Dryas. New research by UC Santa Barbara geologist James Kennett and an international group of investigators has narrowed the date to a 100-year range, sometime […]

The Sluggish Race to Guard the Earth Against Meteors – Vice.com

Via Vice.com May 22, 2015 By Rory Tolan The sky god slept like a rock. In a yawning crater cut into the side of Manhattan’s Central Park, a stone as old as the Earth had amassed a crowd. I found it in a huddle of selfie sticks, flapping brochures, and children slapping it with sweaty palms. But Tomanowos, a divine […]

Cycles of Global Change – Part 2

I wrote last month about the enormous changes that engulfed the Earth at the close of the last great ice age. I discussed the “double whammy” that knocked the planet out of the grip of glacial cold and ushered in the period of interglacial warmth called the Holocene, the name given to the present geological epoch. I stated that I […]

Randall Carlson on The Essence of The Great Work (Video)

Randall Carlson on The Essence of The Great Work (Video)

When I first encountered this idea some 4 decades ago I was perplexed as to what he meant. Now, after years of study into Earth history I interpret that statement in a very literal sense. The record of Earth change, encoded into the rocks, the landscapes about us and in the epic and universal mythology of our species conveys the same message, that inherent in the system is a reset button. The evidence now in hand confirms that this reboot command has been activated numerous times in the course of Earth history prior to any human intervention. The preeminent task of our time is, I believe, learning how to overwrite this command before the next system failure, and towards that end, we have a rich legacy of ancient knowledge and traditions that can facilitate our efforts, especially if deciphered in the light of the extraordinary discoveries of modern science. Ancient and modern systems of knowledge are perfect complements of one another.

Randall Carlson: The Making of a Catastrophist – Part 1

I spent most of my youth in rural Minnesota. The area where we lived, about 10 miles northwest of Minneapolis, was a rolling mosaic of hills, pasture, forest, meadow, agricultural fields, and countless lakes. The landscape was the product of the great ice age which came to an end only about 10 thousand years ago. The many hills were piles […]

Here There Be Dragons

Regarding the prevalence of the dragon in the myths of ancient cultures, British astronomers Victor Clube and Bill Napier, wrote in 1982: “The earliest recorded myths are those of combat, between a god or hero and a dragon. The dragon was a familiar figure in Greece, Egypt, Mesopotamia, Babylon, India, China, North America, and elsewhere. Usually, he has the form of a winged serpent.

Astrobiologists discover fossils in meteorite fragments, confirming extraterrestrial life

Astrobiologists discover fossils in meteorite fragments, confirming extraterrestrial life

There are a few competing theories for how life began on Earth. Panspermia, where life arrived on the back of a comet or asteroid, is one. Abiogenesis, the theory that life spontaneously erupted from inorganic molecules in Earth’s primordial soup, is another. Directed panspermia, where an alien race intentionally sent an asteroid or spacecraft loaded with living organisms to Earth, is another slightly more exotic theory. As for which theory is correct, we’ll probably never know — but the Polonnaruwa meteorite definitely puts the odds in panspermia’s favor.
