Extinction NOT Caused by Asteroid Strike

Richard Cronin

Gerta Keller was the first to challenge the Alvarez Hypothesis of the great extinctions.

The Alvarez Hypothesis is that a single large meteor strike threw up ash and debris of such magnitude and duration as to block solar radiation for several years.

Keller presents the evidence for very lengthy episodes of volcanism producing ash of such magnitude and duration, leading to the extinction events. Oviously, such volcanism increased atmospheric concentration of CO2. All ice core data shows that in past epochs an uptick in warmth preceded an uptick in CO2.

Furthermore, deeply acidic SO2 from submarine volcanoes and hydrothermal vents acidified the ocean waters to destroy nearly all marine life. There is no way that a single meteor strike could acidify the oceans to such extent.

The Alvarez Hypothesis is based upon the existence of a thin layer of Iridium spread around the globe at the time of the extinction. It was thought that Iridium of such magnitude could only be delivered by a large meteor. In his theory of Plate Climatology, James Edward Kamis presents evidence that Iridium exists in large quantities deeper inside the Earth and was thus delivered to the surface via extensive volcanism.

The swings in the GeoReactor kicked all the exothermic Geochemical reactions to increase or decrease.

Herndon’s GeoReactor is a type of Soliton Fast Neutron Breeder Reactor. Supporting evidence includes observations of the signature isotopes of fission found in anomalous locations.

Chlorine 36 in Antarctic ice cores and trending upward. (Pivot & Baroni 2019). Carbon 14 in deep marine sediments which are also dated to two (2) major deglaciations ( Stott, et al 2019) as well as C-14 in mussels and mollusks around hydrothermal vents inside the Mariana Trench. (Wang, et al 2019).

Tritium, Sodium 22 and Chlorine 36 found 50 meters deep inside of a mud volcano in the Caucuses.(Nevinsky et al 2001)


The GeoReactor also delivered the extra heat which explains away the Faint Young Sun Paradox. Photosynthetic life (Cyanobacteria) began approx. 3.5 billion years ago, yet at that time, the Sun was only about 70 % as luminous as today. The earth should have been frozen solid, with no liquid water on the surface. Rather, anaerobic life began around the warm waters of hydrothermal vents, followed by Cyanobacteria and the Great Oxygenation Event. (R. J. Tuttle, "The Fourth Source - Effects of Natural Nuclear Reactors” 2012).

1 VERY interesting! Just goes to show that the old simplistic explanations left a lot to be desired.

2 Yeah Dana; that's usually the case it seems. We THOUGHT we knew so much and are always learning we have a lot to learn.

Like Darwin's theory; it collapses under scrutiny. It was simple, elegant, but does not comport with what we see in the real world.
