Premature rejection in science: The case of the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis

Dr. James Powell published an extraordinary review paper this week revealing and carefully detailing the premature (and pathological imho) rejection of the YDIH. When combined with Martin Sweatman’s work from earlier this year, the whole sorry story of the unprofessional knee jerk opposition to the theory has finally been told. And what a wonderful and welcome documentarian we have in…

Oldie but Goodie: Carolina coast and the UK catastrophically inundated by tsunami circa 1000 AD

It’s a little lazy, but not unknown in blogging circles, to cut yourself some slack and repost old material for new readers. When poking around for an “Oldie but Goodie” to repost, I came across this number from 2012.

The Fall of Phaethon

The Chiemgau impact in Bavarian Germany stands out as a particularly sympathetic “martyr” crater. The evidence for a Bronze Age euro-apocalypse is sincerely published and well established as a legitimate hypothesis based on decades of meticulous fieldwork, but entirely dismissed because the proponents believe the impact was relatively recent in geological terms. The authors don’t…
