Again, again, again, again -- and AGAIN!: Jupiter impacts continue to defy NASA estimates

LIVE UPDATE:  See here to watch tonight for the potential scar of the impact. The Tusk focuses laser-like on impacts experienced by ancient humans. But when called for, I share items from current events that prove our thesis that the rate of cosmic collisions is far greater than generally acknowledged by science (and NASA). Yesterday the impossibly improbable happened once more on…

Summer Grab Bag

Truly bored readers must have noticed my posts trailing off this summer, just like last year. But knowledge waits for no man — even if he is on the beach with a beer. So here are a few intriguing subjects that are barking in the dog days: Another purported ancient Mega-Tsunami is claimed by a reputable archaeologist to have swept into Ireland, this wave in Medieval times. The news…

The Baillie Years: Catastrophic impacts during human times

Highly recommended reading Below is a neat little overview of the work of Mike Baillie and others to define a cause for the worldwide climate downturns of: 3195 BC, 2354 BC, 1628 BC, 1159 BC, 207 BC, 44 BC, and 540 AD. It is found here on a website devoted to liberalizing Islam (not a bad cause itself). Unless a modern day Twain, Mark penned this, I think we can assume the author was using a nom…

Shiva...

 …the Destroyer Dr. Hermann Burchard, a gentleman Tusk reader, insightful contributor, and emeritus mathematician, suggested I post a paper regarding the Shiva Structure off Mumbai, India, the little known brother of Chicxulub.  The question is whether it is a fraternal twin, or younger or older sibling.

Now Showing: Tusk TV

It occurred to me that there was no dedicated link on the Tusk to my (poorly produced) videos concerning the YDB hypothesis (mostly from conferences), and other YouTube content regarding our subject, such as full length TV shows, academic lectures, and nutty and not so nutty videos from the public. So, for your viewing enjoyment, I am providing a permanent link to the YouTube playlist…

Clovis Comet on BBC and The History Channel

The History Channel has made an entire episode of Prehistorc Megastorms concerning the Younger Dryas Boundary event available on YouTube. UPDATE: I have also found a full BBC episode concerning the theory which I was entirely unaware of. It makes a nice level headed contrast to the breathless tedium of the History Channel show. Great to see these videos available, even when flawed, to explain the…
