It Moved, Why Was It Move?

It’s moving, but how?” Vernon had pulled out a pen and was scribbling his thoughts over a napkin. “Ok…ok, so let me think. The dreams started eight days ago, and I’ve been coming to this diner for the last four weeks.” He had drawn a small calendar on the paper napkin, which was tearing apart from Vernon pressing his pen down too hard. “On Sunday I slept for three hours, Monday I did the same, and on Tuesday it seemed like I never closed my eyes.” Across the street, a liquor store clerk was pulling down an aluminum shutter tagged with names and abbreviations. The next block over, the lights on a street cleaner lit-up the alley in front of the diner for a moment as it drove by sweeping the gutters. His mind had stopped when she had swung around from behind him, sliding herself into the booth and throwing her bag onto the table. “Counting the days till Christmas,” asked Gabby. She had crushed her cigarette butt out in the ashtray at the end of the counter, but the smoke still seemed to follow her across the diner. “You can say that,” replied Vernon, who looked sideways at a couple of empty prescription bottles that were sticking out of the top of her purse, then back at her eyes which were beginning to turn black. “Don’t worry, it’s nothing that won’t kill me.” She had reached under the table and lifted herself up, pulling off the stockings that she was wearing. Vernon could feel that she had slipped off her shoes when she had brushed her foot against

The article explains the consequences of their efforts to drill into the Chicxulub crater in Mexico, the site where the asteroid supposedly struck. There was a lot of arguments as to which scientist would take the core section to analyze. In the end

Large amounts of iridium – a chemical element that is not a part of the Earth’s crust composition – were originally found in rocks of Europe and United States, and have been found everywhere ever since. Iridium, common in meteorites, is a testable evidence of the disaster hypothesis. Gould continues that the Cretaceous debacle, which is one of five episodes of mass dying, occurred at the same time as the large comet might have smashed into the Earth. The author believes this is not merely a coincidence, rather, it is a proof of the cause-effect relationship. The demise of a wide range of habitats along with the extinction of dinosaurs gives an inestimable advantage to the disaster theory over other claims, the author adds. The comet struck the Earth, and habitats, from terrestrial to marine, died with geological suddenness. Finally, this hypothesis has had an impact on the study of an atomic war and its consequences. A nuclear war, Gould says, may cause a huge drop in temperatures and result in the extinction of humanity. Testable evidence, study, development, contribution – all this makes good science.

Despite a family history of geophysicists and rock enthusiasts, I’ve never found the subject of rocks particularly fascinating. However, an exploration of Earth Science has lead me to the discovery that rocks are actually hidden gems (often literally), and that there’s more to the topic than one would think.

The paramedics found their daughter’s I.D. according to the paramedics. “She was hit by a car. She’s-- they don’t know. In surgery. What hospital? Did they say what hospital?” This shows, the parents are scared that their daughter got in an car accident and are trying to rush to the hospital. “And then there’s Chicxulub. 65 million years ago, an asteroid collided with Earth. Judging from the impact crater, which is a hundred and twenty miles wide… was some six miles across… 75% of all known species were extinguished.” The show, the man is comparing the meteor to the news. The news being Chicxulub and it hit him so hard he couldn’t do

Documentation: 28 August & 1 September 2015 C4C Lauren Truax was my lab partner and we worked together to discover the results of the unknown mineral and calculations.

On November 10, 2009, a small meteor hit a bare patch of grass yards away from The Andes Chemical Lab. It was later encountered by one of the staff, and he brought it in to show to the supervisor. He was told to identify the substance and did the tests to figure it out. Unfortunately, or fortunately for some, it was unidentifiable. But before he could tell the supervisor, the rock started shaking. Seconds later, the power went out. As he realized that the rock was an egg, it became clear that the hatching of the egg had caused an EMP. The power was later restored, but the egg was missing, and it was not to be forgotten by that man.

“You're all done.” Eve said. I look at her, stand up and reach to get my phone. I click the on button and see a message.

I desperately want answers, when my questions are interrupted as the door opens. I sit up, my back aching and my head pounding. Felix is standing in the door way, with his hands in his pockets. “Felix,” I begin, surprised.

The scientists' Tagish Lake meteorite discovery is rich in carbon – and contains a myriad of organic matter, which includes amino acids. While amino acids aren’t new to meteoritic structure, what was extraordinary about this discovery was that different pieces had greatly variable amino acid

Nahum expresses how the area around the meteorite had poisoned the soil, Nahum said (Lovecrraft, 1927, p. 6). This shows that this meteorite is deadly and not

Moreover, the lunar rocks have been inspected internationally by a myriad of scientists. As any scientist who observed the rock, they will say the lunar rock has a more consistent composure of iron oxide (FeO) to manganese oxide (MnO). Rocks from earth may appear similar, but the composition of Earth rock is far more inconsistent than any lunar rock. Korotev himself says best, “It was easier and cheaper to go to the Moon and bring back some rocks than it would have been to create all these fascinating features on Earth.” Inspected by many and unopposed, the lunar rocks

The meteor is thought to have flash melted the crust which proceeded to differentiate into a granophyre and a leuconorite to norite composition. The granophyre makes up 60% of the complex and the leuconorite and norite make up the remaining 40% (Figure 1b)(Barnes et. al., 2005). About 50% of the ore is found in the sublayer norite and the breccia that is associated with the norite. This ore is mainly disseminated sulphides. The massive sulphides are located in the center

The team identified the meteorite as an igneous rock that has fractures that were once filled with carbon dioxide rich fluid (McKay et al 1996) They went on to present 4 lines of evidence:

Surprisingly, the clay held almost 30 times more iridium than the limestone layers above and below the clay. Similar layers in other parts of the world gave the same results. The conclusion was that a giant meteorite hit the Earth 65 million years ago and had released a large
