The markers were located at a well-known Mexican Ice-Age site
This is particularly interesting in light of Vance Haynes’ entirely separate publication last week. I cant find much on these folks, or at least Mellissa Scruggs. Perhaps they are young. If so, hats off to them. Their research confirmed the recent findings of one of the world’s greatest archeologists. And…

Bill Napier has a significant paper coming out soon in the Monthly Bulletin of the Royal Astronomical Society, and I got a look at it pre-publication. While I cant share the paper itself, I can share the abstract STRIKE and a few snippets STRIKE. The paper is significant because for the first time it provides an astronomical context for the 12,900 event. Napier shows that the event is…

This 1498 engraving of a bad day on the continent caught my eye on Michel-Alain Combes’ page here. I think it is from a famous French fall of that time period.

A couple of months ago I was having some fun with Google Earth Pro and put together this little video demonstrating the ubiquity of Carolina Bays in Eastern North Carolina. This is one of those projects where you swear you will return and do a “second draft” in the near future — and never do. So it is still kinda rough.
But people unfamiliar with the Carolina Bays should find it…

In particular, that the solar system is host to dangerous dark bodies as well as the better known and more easily spotted bright comets and reflective asteroids. [See: Extreme albedo comets and the…

I’m reading the recent Vance Haynes paper and there is much on which to comment. But this caught my eye and I just had to share.
Haynes et. al. took the surprising step of analyzing the sediment profile above and below the layer where the last of the first Clovis indians are found — for radiation. At three of the four sites there was a distinct and inexplicable peak in radiation…
