| Ice Ages |  What are the chances of anyone or any living creature surviving one of the many ice ages to hit planet earth, the glaciers, the Artic conditions? We might conclude them to be remote to say the least. With mountainous snow drifts over two hundred feet deep, continents turned in to glaciers, perpetual darkness, howling winds, freezing rivers and lakes, the prospect of survival remain anything other than bleak. They'll be no food, no roads, rails, air travel, no schools, hospitals or power. It'll be a dark, barren wasteland where only their very fit, and the very ruthless make it through. It'll be an orgy of murder, killing, cannibalism and death where humans are reduced to eating humans. And if that thought isn't frightening enough, then the next iceage could be with us in a few short years, not centuries or millennia. You think I joke?
Over the past few decades, to show the realism of iceage phenomena, science has come up with some rather startling evidence. Samples taken from the polar ice caps show iceage is real. Residue samples from the polar ice caps have shown iceages to be periodic, occurring about every 10,000 years or so. And if that wasn't bad enough, these samples taken from Antarctica, which have been forensically examined, show chronologically, that the last known ice age happened on earth around 9,500 years ago. And that means the next iceage is just around the corner.
However, the real crux of the problem concerning this delicate subject has always been, what causes iceage? Why should our planet suddenly take it upon itself to turn into one great big snowball? There are many theories to explain why this happens, from the sublime to the profoundly ridiculous. Probably the best know of these is based around vulcanology, and the cyclical activity of large volcanos.
What a lot of volcanologists have predicted is the extreme power of huge volcanos spewing smoke and ash into the upper atmosphere, blotting out the sun and sending temperatures here on Earth plummeting. And I suppose, to some extent the theory seems plausible, or at least more plausible than other theories such as impacting asteroids or comets. Although these ideas seem somewhat sound it should be remembered, most of the postulation remains at best speculative, and at worse laughable. The simple fact of the matter is, once closer scrutiny is offered, gravity would not allow for the extreme height of volcano eruption needed to blanket the planet with enough material.
Further to this, huge forest fires which are considered to produce more smoke and ash than even the biggest volcanos appear to have little impact on climatical temperatures, let alone plunge us into an iceage. Personally I believe a much more profound answer is needed, and that will probably come from a piece of theoretical physics, basing the assumption on a cosmological criteria, rather than any individual event, or sequence of events here on earth. But how to prove it.
Without being unduly alarmist, I think I've discovered the route cause of the problem and have gone some way to explaining the reasons why iceage take place in pervious papers: the rewrite of Einsteinian Special Relativity and the Solar vortex theory. If we espouse the axioms of these two highly original ideas with the expanded paper on planetary evolution, we may have just opened a can of worms that otherwise would have best been left undisturbed.Ice Age 1 The Ice Age
