Scientists say giant pieces of ancient alien planet may be lodged under Earth’s surface

JTN-

Scientists seeking to explain a series of seemingly inexplicable formations deep within the Earth’s surface may have found an explanation: They came from outer space.

Researchers with Arizona State University’s School of Earth and Space Exploration said in a recently published paper that the “continent-sized Large Low Shear Velocity provinces” identified in Earth’s mantle—essentially giant formations of rock the origins of which scientists have struggled for decades to explain—may have been formed by Theia, the proto-planet thought to have slammed into the ancient Earth billions of years ago.  more

  1. “Giant pieces of alien planet …”

    Considering that the current theory of planet-building is the “Accretion Ring” concept, wouldn’t that be a given?

  2. I think they have a point, that their observations are correct but they form the wrong conclusions, as scientist too often do.

    I think God put together the earth from remnants of other planets, so the inside is an actual rocky planet (“alien” as these scientists call it) that he started with and built up the earth layer by layer with other remnants. IMO, those layers are very visible today when we look at a mountain or a rocky cove or bay in the ocean. Layers God built up to get the size he wanted. He made the earth this way and put it in the right location for life to thrive here. That’s my take on it.

  3. Fact is scientists don’t really know and it’s all speculation. Next week they’ll be saying something different. We already know meteors have hit our planet in the past. So, it isn’t earth’s first fireworks.

  4. In a time when mad billionaires want to lob chalk dust into the stratosphere to fight global warming, and every person on earth is on the verge of being forced to be vaccine guinea pigs, I’m just glad there’s one bit of crackpot sciency stuff I can just ignore.

  5. Huron, a lot of people were duped and suckered into buying Chevy Vegas when they first came out in the early 70’s including Motor trend who named it their Car of the year in 1971. I don’t know which was worse Pintos, Vegas, Gremlins etc., they were all POS’s. Chevy should’ve stuck to the Corvair and improved it and not have let Ralph Nader run roughshod over the top of them. It was a far better and more innovative car than Vegas could ever hope to be.

    Could be that we/earth is a work in progress and God is working on a do over.

    Revelation 21: Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”[a] for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’[b] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

    Hmmm, no ocean, but that’s okay, to live in heaven for ever is going to be better than anything we have on earth today. I believe!

  7. Without reading the atricle…
    The accretion disk would, and has been observed elsewhere to, have resulted not in a neat and tidy planetary order, but rather, in protoplanetary chaos. The collision of the postulated Mars-sized Theia with Earth (at the right angle) would create the moon, but also result in most of Theia and a far chunk of Earth vaporizing.

    This postulate would indeed explain why our Moon is nearly identical to Earth in composition, why the Earth’s crust contains heavy elements that should have otherwise sunk to the Earth’s core, and this LSV phenomenon.

    It’s not a new postulate, but newer discoveries continue to support it above other explanations.
