Earth is definitely expressing itself as a self-regulated living organism on surface, at least between major extinctions. But even disruptions of that self-regulation can be explained either as a regular component of embryonic development process or as a presence of a disease. These interpretations are not mutually exclusive - both can be simultaneously valid, at least in some cases (e.g., where the disease carriers are tamed).
Life is fundamental, universal, ubiquitous. But it must be relative. Since the only way to sustain life is to consume and exploit other life, unless eating one’s self is sustainable, it is obvious that all the potential food must be different [or, more precisely, considered different] than the consumer. Carnivores will tend to see animals of different species as less complex, less conscious or less deserving of life. Herbivores will, in addition, tend to see plants as less living than other life. It is not surprising then that both will tend to see their planet - which is formed out of completely different building blocks and which operates on much larger timescales, as something even less than that. This is normal. However, in the absence of regulation and decreasing awareness of life in other life, normal tends to become abnormal and unsustainable.
When there exists [a growing] interest in increasing differences, there will be [a growing] interest in the ignorance of similarities. This can, and usually does, hinder the advancement of science. It should be clear that deeper knowledge and understanding increases the chances of long-term sustainability, while long-term ignorance is a sure path to extinction, of a certain [way of] life. But all this can be normal as well. Sometimes, ignorance in the beast leads to its taming by the host. And this is probably common in the evolution of life.
From a holistic perspective then, life is not limited to a certain scale. The interpretation of its building blocks and development, however, is scale dependent. In other words, self-similarity stems from the universal code, but the embodiment of this mathematical abstraction is bound to diversify - horizontal instances of life will evolve into different forms, vertical instances of life will evolve with different building blocks.
In all living beings acknowledged as such by humans, life is not limited to the epidermis (outermost skin layer) - in fact, life there is generally least diverse and complex. Higher diversity and complexity on the skin surface is generally limited to relatively short periods during embryonic development (correlated with the taming of some external beast in the past). The fact that no complex life has been detected on the surface of any planet but Earth goes in favour of this hypothesis.
Discovery of past habitability of Mars and signs of past habitability of Venus also go in favour of the hypothesis of omnipresence of life, but also its temporally limited presence on the epidermis.
Bias exists in definition of life itself in modern science - apparently there is no solid consensus on required constitution of a living being. But even if there would be one, in the current climate, it would hardly allow for Earth to be alive.
However, assuming extroversion and introversion of life can go to extremes, then everything would have to be relatively alive - either as a distinct lifeform or a composition of lives at some smaller scale, only differing in the ratio of mental to physical interaction (or amount of life in these domains or dimensions of reality). The remaining question is what can be considered a distinct single unit (or organism) of life? For example, any piece of rock on Earth is a relatively living rock because it contains living components (e.g., bacteria, but also molecules and atoms - which I also consider living beings, albeit extremely introverted) but it’s probably not conscious or living as an individual lifeform itself (in other words, the rock is simply a vessel carrying other organisms but it is not alive itself). On the other hand, animals like humans are also ecosystems composed of living beings but somehow also alive as distinct organisms themselves. Why? What does it take for the collective of organ[ism]s to become a new organism with its own distinct consciousness? A collective of bacteria organized into biofilms does act as a single organism. Is this then indeed a new conscious organism? Probably, even if its extroverted expression of consciousness is limited.
Just like bacteria do in biofilms, a group of people can acquire different functions in that group and the group can act like a single unit, even if the symbiosis is soft and entanglements between people are not wired on visible, or what we would interpret as physical, scale. That unit, however, probably represents a distinct conscious organism as well, at least periodically or occasionally (at times when some graviton of larger scale is coupled to the organization). The unit could be referred to as a proto-conscious proto-organism, a potential precursor to the fossilization of the soft symbiosis into a hard-wired organism.
I find the distinct consciousness to be a requirement for any collective to also represent a distinct living individual on its own. But distinct individual consciousness obviously requires concentration of energy and if this is not energy composed out of standard atoms than it must be the energy of a different scale. In my theories, consciousness thus requires coupling of a particle of one scale with a body of mass of another scale. The soul (more or less evolved graviton of particular scale) is at the moment of coupling relatively localized (from a waveform towards a corpuscular form) and the amount of consciousness is then proportional to the strength of localization.
Deeper layers of consciousness should be generally less localized, in both space and time.
A biofilm then probably is a conscious organism on its own but probably not significantly conscious as this consciousness is not as focused as it is, for example, in an adult human individual. In fact, any kind of spontaneous self-organization must be relatively spontaneous and this then probably implies that it is always synchronized with soul-body coupling. And this coupling may be strong, or loose, and periodic (resulting in pulses of consciousness or conscious individuality). Therefore, there exists a real probability that even a piece of rock occasionally becomes a living individual (even if just for a split second). And if this coupling intensifies it could develop and evolve into something much more.
The coupling of consciousness (or the soul) with the collective of matter (real mass) is how individual life starts and how it evolved from a bunch of atoms and molecules into more complex organisms. In my hypotheses, the soul carries the image (the goal) of individual [quantum of] evolution, it is the effect (or template) the local collective starts converging to with coupling. Thus, there exists a phase shift between the body and the soul - if the soul is more evolved the evolution of the collective is progressive, otherwise regressive. It is obvious that the rate of convergence to the effect is inversely proportional to the amount or focus of consciousness (as an organism reaches adult stage, its development eventually stops and at that point consciousness is maximal). As we age further, consciousness starts diluting again but, this time, instead of inducing development or convergence, it’s inducing divergence or decay, of collective support for individuality. It is well known that a genome is simply a book of recipes for the manufacture (expression) of components (proteins) but it doesn’t contain a complete recipe for the development of the organism from conception to adulthood. The development is effectively guided by the soul once it couples with the body (collective). Thus, as we grow, as our consciousness becomes more focused, it becomes harder for us to affect (through mental pathways) processes or the collective of our body - at least in a way that would greatly impact its function. However, it is probably possible at least for some individuals to dilute consciousness (e.g., through meditation, dreams or hallucination) and, once again, guide the collective towards a particular effect.
Generally, both, the soul and the body (collective), evolve towards or away from the same lifeform but this lifeform manifests itself differently on different scales. In other words, the code is universal, but its interpretation is scale relative. Communication between the soul and the body is two-way but there are periods when one side dominates. At least some dreams could be a result of transfer or sharing of information between scales. Thus, if one sees a familiar character or a place in a dream, that does not mean the dream is based on local information - it may simply be a local interpretation of remote information.
So what about Earth, is it a piece of rock with low probability of strong or longer-lasting individuality or is it a, more or less, conscious individual? First of all, it’s definitely not just an ordinary, simply enlarged, rock aggregate (or an undifferentiated asteroid). It has layers, it has atmosphere, liquid water and sources of energy. That still doesn’t make it alive, especially if it did develop according to conventional theories of planetary formation. However, in my theories, formation of a planet starts with inflation (or deflation) of a graviton and its coupling to a body of matter (real mass). It then must be conscious, but how much? I believe the Earth is in the last stages of embryonic development so its consciousness is somewhat localized but still mostly driving evolution of the collective towards the adulthood. Similar to biofilms on it, the whole collective of life on Earth is diversified and, when healthy, forms a self-regulating system where different species have different roles - even if some or most may not be aware of it (I know that I am guided, but I don’t think other people are not, they’re just not aware of it).
I believe one indicator of mental guidance and thus, presence of Earth’s soul or evidence of Earth’s individuality, are events of synchronicity.
One can imagine that the relative equivalent (more or less evolved form) of dark matter haloes and filaments exists in time (which is a dimension of space of certain scale) guiding the creation of our brain and nervous systems, for example. The haloes reveal the presence of a soul (source of singular identity, focused consciousness, or relative singularity), while filaments could be understood as channels of entanglement (correlation) enabling extroverted expression and symbiosis between souls but which are also guiding the components of the body (organisms of different scale) towards a particular organization and symbiosis. Note, however, that filaments are simply a strongly correlated collective of halos (and associated souls) of smaller scale.
Note also that, if events of synchronicity or resonance are an expression of the hypothesized guidance, these events as well should increase with pulses of strong evolution. Synchronicity events could be thus becoming more and more meaningful, unequivocal and more leading, rather than misleading.
The entire Solar System is then also an individual organism, and, relative to that system, Sun and planets may be interpreted as organs (physically relatively passive, or extremely introverted, symbiotic organisms).
Note that, most of our organs are also dominantly introverted organisms which, when alive, have their own souls coupled to them. We are influenced by these souls but our primary soul (soul dominantly correlated with our identity) is the soul coupled with the brain. Our development, from conception, is - similarly to the Solar System development, a parallel development of multiple strongly entangled organisms whose souls effectively revolve about the primary graviton. Yes, the bodies of our organs do not apparently orbit our brains but souls of these organs could. The souls could be only periodically coupling with organ bodies (which could be correlated with heart rates and lower consciousness of these organs). In fact, orbiting souls could be imparting momentum on organ bodies at the time of coupling so the organs could over time move in the orbit direction, however, the impact may be negligible. As noted before, souls have greatest impact on collectives prior to localization but this impact is mental (of low scale energy) and may produce some other effect rather than displacement (e.g., effect correlated with organ operation).
The souls of organs could be periodically coupling to the brain (collapsing from the orbit) - with each decoupling from the original body (organ), thus, exchanging information. This would then explain changes in habits or preferences in people with implanted foreign organs.
Note also that our brain is not as introverted as other organs - our extroverted expression is completely controlled by the brain. The nervous systems connected to the brain go all over the body and should probably be considered as parts of the brain - similar to hyphae systems of Ophiocordyceps unilateralis fungi who take control of their host’s extroversion by growing these networks all over their host’s body.
Obeying the principle of self-similarity, each living organ has an active core, replicating the role of the Sun in the Solar System to localized space-time.
As these are extremely introverted organisms, creatures of extroverted nature accustomed to absolutism may not recognize them as living beings, however, lack of complexity in physical momenta or ability is simply replaced with complexity in mental momenta and ability - which is reflected in momenta of smaller scale lifeforms (or quanta of consciousness) residing inside their bodies. One of these lifeforms are humans, who may be, relative to Earth, its progenitor neural proteins.
Deeper understanding of organisms of planetary scale (or larger) requires understanding of relative scale-invariance of physical laws. One cannot expect that time for these beings (or communication between their constituent parts - e.g., neuron equivalents) flows at the same rate as for organisms of smaller scale (e.g., humans), nor that their tissue should look like our tissue (relativity of invariance implies a difference between vertical scales). As calculated before, Earth’s mass on scale is on the order of kg, while we perceive it as kg. Thus, on the scale of Earth, 1 kilogram is equal to about kilograms on our scale, or the scale of atoms. Similar is with time.
16.4. Future Development, Neurogenesis
Here I hypothesize that the cultivation of life on the surface of a planet is the cultivation of progenitor neural cells and proteins (relative to the planet) which are, at the point of differentiation transferred to the planet’s [brain] mantle layers in some form. Similar to the accelerated (time compressed) evolution during human embryo-genesis, I propose that the effective time compression occurs during planetary development as well - with the end of each cycle of general oscillation of the Solar System (Earth) and with the amount of compression being proportional to the cycle period.
The points of differentiation and migration in neurogenesis are highly correlated with major mass extinction events (although it is possible that limited transfers or leaks occur with smaller extinctions too), which are thus only relative extinctions - life is not completely extinct, it undergoes rapid evolution and migrates away to the mantle, where it may not evolve further.
At least some forms of this life may also significantly increase lifespan, at the expense of fertility. Differentiated neural populations may generally be regulated through apoptosis and genetic cloning.
I hypothesize that Earth’s brain has, like human brain, 6 major layers, and that complete formation (or at least population) of these layers requires 6 major mass extinctions during Phanerozoic.
At this point, there should be no doubt that we are amidst a major extinction event, the 6th one.
Being part of neurogenesis, associated extinction events must be coded at some level and relatively periodic. These extinction events have relative triggers. While in the past these may have been impactors and volcanism, current extinction seems to have an anthropogenic trigger. Thus, one could conclude that the current extinction is not part of neurogenesis, rather a part of cancer growth. However, tumours in humans are known to induce neurogenesis (it is one mechanism enabling migration - metastasis).
I find the induction questionable though - humans are not consciously triggering neurogenesis on Earth, it is thus more plausible for neurogenesis to be a reaction of the immune system to inhibit cancer growth. Extinctions coupled with neurogenesis go in favour of such hypothesis. Cultivation of cells during embryonic neurogenesis in general can be interpreted as tumour growth, but this tumour is obviously tamed and transformed by the host into something useful - neural cells and proteins.
Therefore, I believe the cancerous
homo.beta[
198] will be subdued (decreasing fertility in humans certainly goes in favour of this hypothesis).
Homo.beta refers to species of humans currently inhabiting the Earth’s surface, self-proclaimed homo sapiens. For various reasons, I consider the title homo sapiens premature for this species, so I have reserved it for an evolved form of human.
Judging by past major extinctions, and correlating with standard neurogenesis in mammals, these events probably should be expected with the advancement of planetary neurogenesis:
increasing rate of volcanism and earthquakes (a consequence of neurulation - formation of neural tube equivalents, possible additional gyrification of brain tissue),
asteroid/cometary impacts (providing energy, acting as specific event triggers - e.g., graviton energy level changes and volcanism induction),
accelerating climate change (stimulating migration towards the interior entrance point - probably south pole),
reduction of ocean pH to about 7.33 (probably synchronized with mantle migration),
Embryonic development of individuals in general represents a lossy-compressed evolution of the species the individual belongs to. How compressed and how lossy the process is depends how much the species are evolved. Human neocortex, for example, didn’t always have 10 billion neurons. There were periods of weak evolution - when the number of neurons was kept relatively constant, and strong evolution - when the number of neurons was significantly and rapidly increased. The evolution usually takes a lot of time so it occurs over many different incarnations of the soul. In case of lifeforms in which the body is discarded after each incarnation, this implies many different bodies, and with every birth past incarnations are re-evolved in compressed form. Thus, in such lifeforms, every new gestation period associated with a particular soul implies a new body. Development of a planet like Earth, however, is much less compressed and since there is no conventional reproduction, the same body is reused with different incarnations of the soul (even different souls may be involved). Thus, the planet, during its development, experiences multiple gestation periods. A planet like Earth does not experience a single embryonic neurogenesis event, rather 6 of them.
In standard embryonic neurogenesis, migration of cells starts once the peak of progenitor neuron population is reached, but cells do not migrate all at once. Conventional estimates for the peak of human population range from 2040 - 2084. I estimate that the global peak will be centred about the year 2063±3. Regionally, population peaks could happen some time before or after that year. Migration towards Antarctica could occur in waves, but migration towards the interior might occur only once all the polarized individuals are concentrated at the pole - in the lava tubes. Why lava tubes? Well, the collapse of the magnetic field (and possibly the climate as well) will probably stimulate humans to concentrate underground. But lava tubes here have a different interpretation. In the context of neurogenesis, they probably represent neural tubes. There, humans will be eventually stimulated or forced to migrate deeper inside Earth. This is why Antarctica is increasing habitability.
In standard embryonic neurogenesis, two different pathways are used to create neural tubes: primary - where the tube is formed with the subduction of the neural plate (part of the ectoderm), and secondary - where the tube forms by hollowing out of the solid interior precursor. Here, the equivalent primary process may be the subduction of oceanic plates (alternative is the creation of large deep rifts which eventually close at the top), while the creation of lava tubes is equivalent to secondary neurulation. Primary and secondary tubes eventually connect to form a single tube[
199].
Note that a large reservoir of magma does exist beneath Antarctica. Lava tubes will be created with the expulsion of this magma, probably correlated with an large asteroid impact at the antipodal location. Note that, unless the time gets significantly compressed with gravitational disturbances (which is, however, hypothesized to be happening), this impact must have had happened a few to ten million years ago in order for magma to reach the surface at this time (note also, however, that even if the impact had happened so long ago, this does not exclude local time compression and acceleration of the process). The south pole volcanism should also have a limited precursor in global volcanism sourced in other reservoirs (including earthquakes induced by magma intrusions). Increased and simultaneous seismic/magmatic activity from multiple usually active hotspots is likely but also from previously dormant or unusual places. The activation of hotspots should probably proceed from north to south, possibly even in a relatively straight or curved line if this is correlated with primary neurulation (e.g., from Iceland through Campi Flegrei, Santorini, towards the East African Rift, etc.), however, the actual surface emergence will depend on local conditions.
The question is, how much evolved (compressed) is the process of neurogenesis on this scale? What we are witnessing here on a big screen may be closer to the origin of neurogenesis, implying that we are experiencing how it evolves, rather than experiencing how it proceeds once successfully evolved. In that case, the previous 5 events may represent failed neurogenesis [evolution] events. All very interesting, scientifically, in any case.
In standard neurogenesis, the population peak typically occurs mid-gestation, at about 120 days on average (the range is 105 - 140 days[
200]). But how much does day last on this scale? It has been calculated previously that 1.512 ×
years is for Earth equal to 50 human years (see chapter
17.3. Body mass). From this one can obtain how much the
day lasts in this context:
= Earth’s lifecycle period = 1.512 × years
= human mean lifetime = 50 years
N = number of days in a year
This gives 83-84 years, depending on what is used for N (365.25 y−1 or, what’s probably more appropriate, a superposition of solar and lunar year, 360 y−1).
Assuming then that the
day lasts 83-84 human years, the 120 days of the current Earth’s neurogenesis cycle gestation period would be equal to about 10000 human years. The 140 days (maximum for the peak) is equal to about 11700 human years (11620 in case of a 83-year day, 11760 for one day equal to 84 years). Very interestingly, 11700 years ago (more precisely, 11700±99 years before the year 2000 AD[
201]) was the start of the Holocene. Thus, it appears that the start of Holocene was also the start of the gestation period and the peak has to occur by year 2060±99 at most. Considering the fact that the peak has been reached in some large regions already (e.g., China in 2022[
202]), and that projections are being revised down over time (and considering that the peak human population should probably at most be equal to the average number of neocortex neurons in humans - 10.2 billion), my estimate for the global peak in year 2063±3 seems very reasonable. However, human infertility could peak sooner, 2040-2048, with the population growth continuing through genetic cloning and hybridization.
Note that the population peak in this century is probably necessary [or represents the last chance] for healthy Earth’s neurogenesis, otherwise the interpretation of humans transforms from neural progenitors to a malignant tumour and both Earth and all life on Earth would be gone within about 300 years in that case[
197]. Thus, signs of near human population peak are good signs and good news for sustainability of life of Earth and in Earth.
It should be noted, that in conventional neurogenesis, precursor neuron cells are generated in the fluid-filled ventricular zone, which represents the inner wall of a neural tube. Neural tube is formed from the neural plate, which represents an evolved ectoderm (surface layer). Precursor neuron cells arise from the neural progenitor cells, which are cultivated on the ectoderm (crust). Thus, it is these cells that humans living on Earth’s surface should probably be associated with. In Earth, as noted before, it is the lava tubes that most likely represent neural tubes that will be occupied by humans. Thus, migrating humans will probably settle here (close to the surface, below the south pole) for awhile before they continue migration. Migration to these tubes will be stimulated by diverse ways - it is clear already that the surface habitability is declining. These tubes will, however, become filled with salty water (equivalent of the cerebro-spinal fluid filling the ventricular zones in standard neurogenesis), however, the neuron cells themselves should be filled with freshwater (equivalent of cytoplasm). This suggests that humans living in these tubes will eventually evolve or hybridize into aquatic lifeforms or amphibian lifeforms (assuming pockets of air will exist within cells/tubes). Interestingly, there are interpretations of human history suggesting that ancient human civilizations have been in contact with aquatic or amphibian intra- or extra- terrestrials[
203]. However, I find it more likely that only the knowledge of planetary neurogenesis has been in some way communicated to them, possibly by beings associated with UFO/UAP phenomena, who themselves, however, may be amphibian and living below Earth’s surface.
It has been stated that humans will migrate to the lava tubes in Antarctica. Why there? All things considered, this seems like the most likely location for the entrance into the inner world.
One fact going in favour of this hypothesis is that during all previous major extinctions there were periods when poles were free from ice. Although, one could argue that, during Phanerozoic, world was more often without polar ice caps, than with. Stronger evidence is Mars’ dichotomy, which can be correlated with the creation of neural tubes in the southern hemisphere. It is also clear that, with deteriorating climate/environment in the currently inhabited regions, humans will be migrating northwards and southwards, however, going north one eventually runs out of land (note that this was the case on Mars as well at the time when it had oceans).
Cells and proteins are transferred from neural tubes into deeper mantle with the flow of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) - a salty ocean. In humans, CSF has a pH of 7.33 (on average), and, since pH is scale invariant the pH of Earth’s CSF should be roughly equal. The current acidification of Earth’s oceans will, therefore, probably continue until pH drops to this value, when migration should follow. Afterwards, new surface water may be delivered by asteroid impacts, but it is also possible that some or most of it returns from the mantle (probably not, however, in case this is the last neurogenesis event).
Based on the correlation with atmospheric
, climate models predict the hypothesized pH minimum in the year 2300 AD for an atmospheric concentration of
of 1900 ppmv[
204] (all fossil-fuel sources burned).
The ocean is, of course, currently stratified and pH varies with depth. However, I believe it is the surface pH that is the important marker here. Various interpretations for this are possible (perhaps only surface layers are used - which I find likely, or different layers of the ocean are used for different things, e.g., surface layers may form CSF, others may be used for cytoplasm equivalents) but the evidence that indeed surface pH here is relevant comes from the analysis of past extinctions.
In example, the pH minimum (about 7.33 as hypothesized), associated with CSF, has been already confirmed for Permo-Triassic[
205] extinction.
The cited work shows a [relatively] rapid drop in pH to a minimum, followed by rapid increase and slow progress towards stabilization. Two models were developed for /pH concentration (low- and high- , with a difference in pH minimum between the two being less than 0.2), in the model, the pH minimum is ∼7.35, in agreement with the predicted minimum. The work, however, favours the model, so it cannot be excluded that Earth’s CSF pH is somewhat higher (less acidic) than human.
In any case, the existence of such pH minimum strongly supports the theory of neurogenesis.
A precursor of 6 mantle layers has likely been created in events during Precambrian era, while population with neuron cells and final formation is occurring in Phanerozoic.
There have been 5 major extinctions in Phanerozoic, thus, the next event should probably populate top layers and complete the formation of the final layer (I):
Formed layers of Earth’s brain are shown in
Figure 18. Comparing with other layers, it seems evident that layer I is yet to be completed (according to PREM based models, it’s a partially molten rock, unlike the deeper layers of upper mantle which are considered to be composed of solid rock) - green line illustrates one possibility of seismic velocities after formation (suggesting further melting of the upper part, solidification of the lower part of the layer).
In standard embryonic neurogenesis all mantle layers are populated in a single genesis event. Under the assumption of multiple gestation periods here, I hypothesize that this is not the case here. In other words, the standard embryonic neurogenesis represents a superposition (compression) of 6 temporally separated neurogenesis events - correlated with different layers, into a single event. This is why our consciousness has different layers - it is a superposition of different souls. 6 layers suggest correlation with the carbon atom, or the superposition of carbon atom souls.
Energy from the Sun provides incubation energy used for the maintenance of the Earth’s surface ecosystem and weak evolution, but additional energy is needed for the formation of brain layers of homo.omega.
Here, homo.omega is a species of life Earth belongs to. Obviously, this classification is different than the conventional taxonomy - Earth does not belong to homo genus, however, reasons exist why this kind of classification was chosen in this context. In conventional interpretations, where physical laws are considered absolutely invariant, Earth cannot even be a form of life, let alone belong to the homo genus.
This energy is probably delivered with asteroid, and possibly cometary, impacts.
Year 2300 AD for the event is very conservative though, as it is based on linear extrapolation, does not include rising water temperatures and reaction of the biosphere.
Acidification of water at these events must be, in significant part, driven by injections of gases (e.g., sulfur dioxide) through oceanic ridges and vents or, with rising temperature, methane seeps (where methane gets converted to ) which would introduce significant departure from linear correlation of pH with atmospheric .
Mathematical analysis of past perturbations of Earth’s carbon cycle[
207] also predicts sooner triggering of the 6th major extinction event, before year 2100[
208] (based on most likely future emission scenarios, the critical mass of oceanic carbon uptake calculated by the study author will be reached before year 2066).
From
Figure 19 and more recent models[
210], it is evident that
concentration has a decreasing trend overall. And this is expected with increasing energy from the Sun (Sun was about 6% less luminous 500 million years ago) = less greenhouse gases needed to maintain the temperature required for cultivation.
Everything in nature oscillates (and fluctuates), perturbations exist (coded or not) so this decrease in amplitude is not simple and linear, however some rough periodicity in extinctions should be present.
Statistically significant periodicity of extinctions[
211] (at least in the last 250 million years) has been noted before - 26, and more recently 27[
212], million years between extinctions. In any case, due to differences in extinction strength, multiple harmonics (or energy splitting of a single oscillator) are possible.
Using available data, one can construct models for atmospheric
concentration synchronized with the oceanic pH minimum of a particular major extinction, as shown in
Table 24.
Models are constructed in such a way to simulate oscillation of markers and compression of the amplitude with time, but they are also quantized - each marker is a multiple of a 50 ppm quantum.
Why such quantization? Earth is a large scale quantum system and energy (here correlated with ) should be quantized. The value of 50 ppm seems arbitrary, but it will be shown later that this value may be appropriate.
Some of the models are shown in
Figure 20, blue dots are major extinction events, red triangles are minor extinction events (the curve does not necessarily follow actual
levels between the extinctions, it is only used to illustrate oscillation of markers).
From these models, grouping of extinctions (suggesting oscillation of frequency) becomes more apparent. Major extinctions can be grouped into pairs separated by 126.5 (±8.5) million years, while paired extinctions are separated by roughly half that distance - 62.5 (±11.5) million years. Minor extinctions (420, 305, 145 and 34 mya) may be grouped similarly - pairs separated by 160 million years, 113 (±2) million years separation of paired extinctions.
Model a) is the product of energy level splitting of a single oscillator, while b) is the product of 2 harmonic oscillators - one high energy (major) and one low energy (minor).
Points on the curve should not be interpreted as maximal atmospheric levels across the boundary, simply the points of migration or pH minima.
While these particular models may be speculative, all Phanerozoic
models show decreasing
over time (this should be more evident when comparing boundaries of major extinction events) and recent research shows that maximal atmospheric
across the K-Pg boundary (last major extinction) was ∼875 ppm[
213].
Thus, the maximal atmospheric concentration during the current extinction should be lower than 875 ppm, probably not higher than 800 ppm and not lower than 500 ppm (suggesting that a larger part of acidification will not be sourced in dissolved atmospheric ).
Note that, apart from suitable pH, another requirement for migration is probably a significantly ice free Antarctica. Studies measuring paleoclimatic proxies show that the melting of the Antarctic ice sheet becomes
baked in at some point between 500 and 800 ppm
concentration[
214] (the melting is not perfectly synchronized with the
level, conventional belief is that it would take at least a couple of thousands of years for all ice to melt once the tipping point has been passed). Thus, it is quite likely that the rise of
beyond 800 ppm is indeed unnecessary (e.g., some 3 million years ago Antarctica had much higher temperatures[
215] but the
levels were even somewhat lower than today).
Recent history of
concentration is shown in
Figure 21. Assuming that the
has been, during that history, highly correlated with the rate of evolution, one can extrapolate the relation for accelerated evolution of the current
extinction.
Development and evolution of organisms is generally strongly correlated with temperature. It should not be surprising then that increasing (which is synchronized with increasing temperature) is correlated with the increase in rate of evolution on Earth’s surface. However, it is probably unlikely that the will remain the main driver of temperature increase.
Extrapolating from
Figure 21, from year 1850 onward:
which, for the concentration of 800 ppmv gives year T = 2075.
Note that the equation roughly corresponds to IPCC RCP8.5 (Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5) scenario. Both predict equal for the year 2100, however, RCP8.5 predicts 800 ppm to be reached sooner - in year 2066. RCP8.5 is considered the worst-case scenario and, at this point, still may be considered unlikely.
However, while replacement of coal and oil with other energy sources may eventually reduce human emissions, it is not reducing human impact on nature, which is generally not directly proportional to emissions, rather to energy (resources) consumption, which is growing as usual.
If the impact threshold is reached (
point of no return), human emissions are completely irrelevant and positive feedback mechanisms will produce climate consistent with the RCP8.5 scenario. Studies are already confirming this[
218].
Humanity may be [very] slowly abandoning the business of emissions, but, as proper cancer, it has not abandoned the unsustainable infinite growth policy.
Climate is a part of an eco-system, it evolves with the eco-system, and one cannot expect that disruption of eco-systems won’t impact climate. Since causality is relative, disruption of eco-systems can be interpreted as a precursor to bigger climate disruption, mass extinctions are always relatively synchronized with climate disruptions.
While humans may eventually reduce their emissions significantly, the rate of evolution should keep accelerating according to the equation and, regardless of the atmospheric (which may still be increasing even with 0 human emissions), the required pH minimum will eventually be reached.
UPDATE 2023.09.04
Recent studies go in favour of this hypothesis. The expected slowdown in the rise of atmospheric greenhouse gases during the COVID-19 pandemic was not observed[
219]. Since 2006, methane levels are rising rapidly, while the direct anthropogenic contribution is decreasing[
220].
Asteroid impacts, previously correlated with Earth’s graviton energy level changes, should start before the migration, increasing in frequency and energy with time. Although required energy for changes may be lower than in previous major extinctions, it should still be significant.
Lower requirement for energy from asteroids, natural earthquakes and volcanism, if real, may in part be due to the presence of effective anthropogenic equivalents (e.g., wars, nuclear detonations, drilling, etc.).
However, energy requirement primarily comes from the difference in graviton energy levels and these can be associated with mantle layers/discontinuities. Here, I assume that layers III, IV and V are the result of splitting of a major energy level - thus, the mantle has 4 major layers, although effectively 6 due to energy splitting. Note that the thickness of major layers is roughly doubling with depth. Since the energy requirement for excitation is decreasing with distance from the centre (reflected in decreasing thickness of 4 major layers towards the top) and assuming the current energy level is increasing with each major extinction, the energy requirement for excitation must be decreasing too.
Assuming interval between possible impacts is quantized proportionally to [the equivalent of] a 50 ppm
increase (representing a quantum of energy), given the C1.1 equation, one can calculate potential years of impacts and correlate these with potential impactors, as shown in
Table 25 for several concentrations. Evidently, there are
good candidates among extinction causing asteroids in NEO (near Earth orbit) for calculated dates. Here, the 1866 Sisyphus is the impactor correlated with the 2nd order period of the Solar System oscillation (≈26 my). Note that the impactor in the last major extinction was larger (Chicxulub), making this consistent with the hypothesized decrease in required energy for development with time. Ryugu can then be interpreted as a 3rd order impactor, while Apophis is a 4th order one, albeit a bit larger from the expected average diameter of about 120 m for that order.
Note that a relative synchronization of multiple impactors of different order is expectable if order periods are harmonics, as hypothesized. Note also that the extreme size of Apophis for a 4th order impactor does not rule it out as the impactor. It is possible that Apophis will break into two smaller asteroids and only one part will impact the Earth. Another possibility is that Apophis should be interpreted as a superposition of impactors of different order (this, however, can be interpreted as the reason for breakup). If large scale gravitons are coupled to these asteroids, breakup could be interpreted as decoherence. Interestingly, year 2046 has been calculated previously for the end of the current 4th order cycle. Closest approaches of Apophis are in years 2029, 2051 and 2066. Year 2051 is relatively close to 2046 and a superposition of 2029 and 2066 in the form of an average gives a year 2047. A coincidence, or a signal that Apophis may indeed break into smaller parts and two parts will be absorbed, one in year 2029, the other in 2066, or there will be a single absorption in year 2051? However, one could argue that any year apart from year 2029 (the year of closest approach) is an unlikely candidate, as, according to calculations[
222], Apophis was nearer Earth in the past than it will be in years 2051 and 2066 and nothing happened. But one could also argue that the probability for capture is a function of both distance and time, not distance exclusively. Assuming 50 ppm quantization is correct, close approach years 2029 and 2066 match exactly the calculated impact years, but even the year 2051 is not far away from year 2048 (year associated with 550 ppm). As for the calculated past approaches of Apophis, there are no such good agreements, except for the year 1907, which can be correlated with 300 ppm. That approach may be further correlated with the Tunguska event in 1908.
But should large scale gravitons be coupled with these asteroids? Possibly, if these asteroids act as relative triggers of energy level changes for the local Earth’s graviton. However, it is also possible that gravitons are not coupled to these asteroids at this time, rather, will be coupled prior to impact. In fact, the late coupling is probably required to put these asteroids in the collision course with Earth at the years specified in
Table 25. The question then is where will these gravitons come from? Sources may differ, depending on the impact order, however, it is also possible that the source remains the same (e.g., the Sun), only the graviton energy differs between orders. Apophis may be even broken up by humans (which, if it does happen, I wouldn’t interpret as a non-coded event). Apart from the Sun, most likely other potential graviton sources may be Earth and the Moon. Temporary delocalization of the Earth’s graviton, for example, could drag the asteroid towards Earth with subsequent localization (not just the asteroid, it could drag all the junk humans have put in the orbit as well - but this depends on graviton dimensionality during collapse). One interpretation of this may be feeding, even if unconscious (what is feeding, if not acquisition and transformation of energy into suitable form for local use, e.g., body development) - similar to the unconscious or deeply subconscious feeding of standard embryos in a standard womb. Rather than involving local gravitons directly, this may involve emission and local absorption of large scale gravitational waves (hypothesized to travel/expand at or near 2.93 ×
m/s), but the effects are similar. Note that this kind of asteroid capture helps explain the relative periodicity of impacts - the near Earth visitors may occur at random intervals, but they are periodically captured (the periodicity may be similar to our feeding habits - we may not feed exactly at the same time every day, but we do eat every day, at least if there’s food available nearby). What’s interesting about this interpretation is that this could actually increase the probability for larger impacts, as larger impactors may be more likely to be captured (analogous to the big fish eating big prey). However, what actually is the appropriate size? Blue whales, for example, feed on krill, animals which are about 500 times smaller than them. An asteroid 500 times smaller than Earth is about 25 km in diameter. In any case, if the proposed mechanism of asteroid capture is indeed employed at times, some limits on size and distance should exist as well. Lower limit for size is probably not below 100 m. As for the limits in distance (range of capture), nearer approaches are certainly more likely to be within the range of capture. It is probably safe to assume that the approach of Apophis in 2029 is within that range (estimated distance of the approach is about 38000 km), but is it the right time? Generally, thus, all the predicted impact years should be questionable, especially if Apophis is not captured in 2029. Close approaches of Sisyphus, for example, are still about 15 million km away from Earth and Sisyphus was closer to Earth in the past.
Energy requirements also depend on the rate of development. It is not surprising then that the frequency and size of impacts is largest during early planetary development.
A relatively good news in all this is that there are no signs of potential 1st order impactors (which should be on the order of at least 100 km in diameter) in the near future. This may indicate that the end of the current 1st order cycle is millions of years away. On the other hand, considering the expected disturbances with the end of the current 2nd order cycle, situation can change.
In the previous major extinction, all of these impactors were probably bigger. As noted already, multiple impactors correlated with a single major extinction are likely. Some smaller impacts that can be correlated with the current extinction may then have happened already (e.g., the Chelyabinsk meteor and the Tunguska event).
Note 1: According to current models based on Newtonian mechanics or GR, none of these asteroids are on a collision course with Earth in near future. However, conventional models obviously do not account for the periodic disturbances of the system with the collapse/inflation of gravitons and emission/absorption of large scale gravitational waves.
As argued before (see, for example, chapters 9. The cycles and 14.3. Correlation with extinctions), there are good reasons to believe that courses of asteroids are altered at times of extinctions.
If these impacts are genetically coded at some level, as hypothesized, they should not be questionable, it is only the source and method of delivery that may be unknown prior to the event.
Note 2: Interestingly, there was an impact event on Earth at the time when 400 ppm was reached (Chelyabinsk meteor, ≈ 20 m diameter, 2013.), agreeing with hypothesized 50 ppm quantization and suggesting that, not only are intervals between impacts quantized, but that impacts may possibly be expected with every 50 ppm of increase.
However, if the events are generally correlated with the average ppm value given by the C1.1 equation, which gives year 2015 for 400 ppm, the 400 pm in year 2013 should be understood as deviation due to inherent uncertainty.
Assuming probability of correlation of these events with significantly increases once rises above background levels, the first event should have occurred at 300 ppm - the beginning of industrial revolution. Indeed, one such event had occurred at 300 ppm - Tunguska, 1908. Note that the Chelyabinsk meteor is the largest known body entering Earth’s atmosphere since the Tunguska meteor.
The equation gives year 1992 for 350 ppm. No meteors of comparable impact energy to the Tunguska or Chelyabinsk were recorded in or about 1992., probably eliminating highly energetic direct impacts on land area. If a stronger event did occur, it had likely occurred over the ocean, triggering large waves and possibly earthquakes. Interestingly, an 7.2+ magnitude earthquake and tsunami wave did occur offshore in Nicaragua in 1992. This earthquake is notable for the tsunami wave being unusually large (9.9 m high) for the strength of the earthquake (belonging to a group of rare tsunami earthquakes).
I do not believe, however, that the impact (assuming it happened) caused the earthquake. This was likely the effect of synchronization of events (synchronicity) - the tsunami was caused by the earthquake but it was amplified by the impact. The Earth is a living being and it would not be surprising it reacts, even if unconsciously, to incoming bolides and impactors (just like humans do) to some degree.
I have witnessed such synchronization myself - on 2019.03.07 I have observed a larger meteor burning up in the atmosphere exactly at the time of an earthquake in Hungary, its trajectory was, at least roughly, towards the epicentre or the hypocentre. It is even possible that Earth reacts to every possible impactor, although the reaction may be proportional to impactor energy and thus usually negligible.
Note that, due to enhanced relativity in causality on the scale of gravitons, the reaction can happen some time before or after the impact.
Also interesting about the Nicaragua event is that it occurred at the time of my birthday (September 1st, local time) producing an obvious signal[
229] for me. Based on my heavy experience in synchronicity (I’m experiencing synchronicity almost on a daily basis for years now), I could now interpret this as a confirmation that the meteor was indeed involved in this event (and I originally did), but I cannot claim high confidence in such interpretation.
Note that Nicaragua, Chelyabinsk and Tunguska impact sites on the world map can be connected with a straight line - a correlation suggesting that the next impact may also occur somewhere along this line (even the Chicxulub, Yucatan crater is close). This correlation is a form of synchronicity as well, which then increases the intensity of synchronicity correlated with Nicaragua and the associated impactor. Still, the effect on confidence is marginal. Additional, and stronger, evidence is needed for a highly energetic impactor in 1992.
Although there were no sightings of extremely energetic meteors over land in 1992, there was a notable incident in Uganda, where a large explosion and infall of 150 kg of material in the shower was recorded[
230]. While such incidents may not be so rare, it is interesting that this event occurred only 2 weeks before the Nicaragua event.
Also interesting, and symbolic, is the fact that the last visit of the Halley’s comet to the inner Solar System occurred about the time when 350 ppm was first reached - in 1986., and the next time it will be close to Earth is 2061. - exactly at 650 ppm (calculated using the C1.1 equation).
On the other hand, the assumption of 50 ppm quantization may be wrong, a 100 ppm quantization does not require the impact in 1992 while still predicting Tunguska and Chelyabinsk (gives year 2040 for the next possible impact).
It is currently hypothesized that Tunguska event was caused by a large body which eventually escaped Earth’s atmosphere - it can thus be interpreted as a warning.
Given the fact that neither the Chelyabinsk nor hypothesized Nicaragua meteor did not directly impact land, it appears these too were warnings.
However, I do not interpret these as warnings. I believe one purpose of the atmosphere is to disintegrate incoming bodies to protect life during weak evolution. Without it the Chelyabinsk meteor would be called a meteorite. Tunguska asteroid close-by, however, would not leave any effect but the atmosphere might have caused the Tunguska asteroid to split. I thus believe that whatever caused the Tunguska event is destined to eventually hit Earth, the Earth might have just quantized it and spread over time with its instinct (manifested as atmosphere) to defend its surface life.
These recent events may then be interpreted as signals of things to come.
Note that Newton calculated year 2060 as the first possible year of the Day of Judgment (but what I interpret as the beginning of
the end of the surface world, at least in one model), although allegedly he revised this year later to 2016 by the suggestion of others. His final decision to revise the year was, however, based on a signal. As he was doing calculations, large earthquake occurred, which he later interpreted as a signal that the year 2060 is wrong. This earthquake could be interpreted a signal, but he misinterpreted its meaning - a better interpretation, at least from the current perspective, is that earthquakes are to be expected at the end and may have a prominent role in it. Newton also calculated that the end cannot come after year 2344[
231]. Interestingly, this can be correlated with the previously determined pH minimum (which should be reached sometime between ≈2040 and ≈2300, with earlier dates probably more likely).
The year 2016 is not there without a meaning for me too, it is the year [of the start] of my soul
rebirth (transformation, or change of soul energy level) occurring at the age of 36±1 (here, margins may be interpreted as the spread of the transformation in time as it is not absolutely instant) of the incarnation[
70]. The calculations of Newton are based on the writings in the Bible and one could certainly argue that these should not be taken into account. I, however, interpret it as a correlation that is increasing intensity of synchronicity here, increasing confidence, even if marginally. Note that year 2016 may indeed be the point of no return regarding the collapse of civilization at least[
232], but some other tipping points may have also been reached about that year, associated with climate change and biodiversity loss.
Note also that the year 2016 is not far from the year 2015 (year associated with 400 ppm, per the equation), while year 2060 is not far from the year 2061 (year associated with 650 ppm, per the equation).
Note 3: Interestingly, at the time of the Chelyabinsk event, Apophis asteroid was in close approach. Considering that the composition of Chelyabinsk meteor seems to match the composition of Apophis surface (LL chondrite) a possibility does exist that the meteor broke off of Apophis and is thus a part of impactor energy splitting.
Note 4: The equation C1.1 is one variant of the universal equation for a pulse of strong evolution. That 800 ppm as the
marker maximum was a good prediction can be confirmed with another variant (inverse) of the equation, one correlated with half-lives of elements:
where
=
(
) is the half-life of the element measured at time
. The equation gives half-life of 0 at, or near, T = 2075, which is the year when
(T) is equal to 800 ppm (half-life however cannot reach absolute 0, suggesting that 800 ppm is an unrealistic marker in this interpretation). Just like in case of
I do not expect for half-lives to follow the equation continuously (e.g., half-life might appear constant and then get reduced significantly in an instant). Generally, changes in decay rates should require sudden changes in properties of space.
One exception to this could be the half-life of e, due to vertical entanglement with the local system. If the Solar System cycles through in the 1st order cycles, a continuous precursor enrichment in at a lower scale () may be effectively announcing the state change of the parent system (the Solar System).
For
e, incorporating the value from the most recent measurements (
= 2010,
(2010) = 1.387 ×
y), the half-life equation is:
and it gives values in good agreement with previous measurements, as shown in
Table 26.
All measurements agree well with calculated values, except for 1986 - if there were no flaws in measurement, this may be attributed to deviation due to cycling (similar to yearly fluctuation of ). Note, however, that measurement 1993 was done on the same SRM (Standard Reference Material) sample and discrepancy suggests one of these measurements is wrong.
If indeed the half-life of e is decreasing as hypothesized, modern science has been effectively doing cherry-picking here - discarding results which do not agree well, or are in discrepancy, with latest measurements.
Given the current precision of measurements, a new measurement at this point in time which would agree with the calculation would be in discrepancy with measurements from 2010. and would thus confirm the hypothesis of continuous decrease of e half-life with the extinction event.
Note that this effect on decay rates is temporary and significant only at the end of a cycle of general oscillation up to the 3rd order.
Note also that decay rates may not be always changing directly (affecting half-life) rather effectively (CR requires effective oscillation in particle decay, but these changes will not always be reflected in half-life of the element) - e.g., through spallation reactions.
However, also note that the measured/calculated strong decrease of e half-life (with no associated apparent significant gravitational disturbances) can be interpreted as a consequence of relativity in causality. In that case, this decrease could be a precursor to real global change (across all unstable elements), announcing pending gravitational disturbance - collapse of the local gravitons. If e half-life continues to follow the equation, collapse probably has to occur before year 2075.
Note 5: In the previous note it was assumed that half-life decreases fast and the equation allows it to eventually drop to zero (although, the compression of time implies that this state lasts 0 time - thus, effectively, half-life never becomes 0).
Another possibility, although unlikely, is that half-life cannot ever reach zero, even for 0 time. In that case, the equation might have this form:
This yields, for
= 1987 (
= 1.512 ×
y,
(
) = 341.83707500861), results in
Table 27.
where uncertainty in calculation is the scaled variation of (10 ppm).
Multiple extinction pulses may not only be plausible but necessary - first pulse would include asteroid impact(s) (possibly triggering additional ocean acidification and formation of the layer in the mantle), the other would provide new water/life, either by comets or asteroids. A third pulse in between might also be needed to trigger the (now acidified - CSF) ocean sink and, relatively, sterilize the surface (as noted before, all this is probably synchronized with magnetic field collapse, allowing surface sterilization by UV/gamma radiation).
Note that, if this is the last embryonic neurogenesis event of Earth, a collapse of Moon’s graviton probably should be expected. Remains of the Moon could then be the source of eventual impacts of cometary nature (dust/water/ice).
This is evident on Mars - as layers below the surface formed, magnetic field receded leaving the surface sterilized. Water froze and is now covered with dust. Thus, one can only expect to find residual and resilient bacteria within the upper crust of Mars.
Similar probably happened on Venus except water may have evaporated due to high surface temperature.
Nothing in nature is absolutely linear (although this approximation may be suitable during stages of weak evolution) and in these extreme events one can expect significant departures from linear relations (by multiple orders of magnitude) between phenomena.
Since these events are coupled with gravitational stresses of the Solar System one can expect temporary but significant increase in alpha and neutrino radiation (radiation flux induced by temporary collapse of a gravitational well associated with a large scale graviton - strongly affecting half-lives of isotopes). One interpretation of changes in decay rates could be [inverse] time dilation due to scale change of gravitons, but what actually are the mechanics?
If this collapse is synchronized with the collapse of the magnetic field, increased incidence of cosmic rays will increase decays of elements but this is limited to surface and should not be interpreted as real, rather effective and limited, change in decay rates.
However, a mechanism for real changes does exist. Graviton of Earth must be entangled with static graviton neutrinos that form its space. Spin/scale change of the large scale graviton will thus be synchronized with spin/scale changes of these neutrinos. In equilibrium, when the gravitational well is full, these neutrinos are [most of the time] bound to standard atoms contained in [or bound to] the gravitational well of the maximum. Obviously, disturbance of these neutrinos (decoupling from atoms) will destabilize the atoms and induce decays.
Also note that these changes are synchronized with orbital changes of large scale maxima in the Solar System - which, like the decay rates, are accelerated during the pulse but return to normal after the pulse.
Due to dependence of the density of graviton neutrinos to the distance from the gravity source (density being generally inversely proportional to distance squared), it is possible that even orbital changes in eccentric planetary orbitals are synchronized with changes in decay rates, with some phase shift (in that case, graviton neutrinos directly affected are the static graviton neutrinos of the Sun’s space). However, there is no spin/scale inversion in this case and there will likely exist a threshold eccentricity required to produce significant effects (this can be experimentally verified with satellites in eccentric orbit).
In fact, this may have been detected already[
234], and can also be correlated with oscillation of fundamental constants, such as G (as presented already).
Due to universal synchronization and restoration of previous equilibrium states it may be hard to detect strong pulses in the past. In fact, astronomical and geological observations, generally, probably will not reveal any deviation from constancy of decay rates. However, probably all records of cataclysmic changes should be interpreted as fossils of this elementary destabilization.
Thus, with such nature of changes (rapid excursions), the principle of uniformitarianism in this context may inevitably seem, but cannot be, valid.
Note also that most of emitted radiation will be lost to space for the same reason - temporary collapse of gravitational/electro-magnetic well, thus solving the problem of missing radiogenic Helium[
235]. Due to conservation of momentum, significant loss of heavier atmospheric particles is not expected due to well loss, but can occur during the short exposure to solar wind.
The assumption of absolutely constant decay rates will not only produce incorrect ages but can result in misplacement of events on a geological timescale. Thus, inconsistencies in certain geological records can serve as indirect evidence to disruptions in decay rates.
Consider the neutrino pulse in
Figure 22 - under the assumption of constant decay rates, 3 different fossil records A, B, C may give the following results:
assuming non-isotropic space-time perturbation, such that fossil record A decay is not affected by the event at , the event at (associated with fossil record B) may appear to have happened before the event at (associated with fossil record A),
in case decay rates of both A and B are affected, the distance of and to will be increased (time interval expansion).
One potential example of this are the late Eocene impact events. Here, two impact craters with diameters of ca. 100 km and 40-85 km (Popigai and Chesapeake Bay, respectively) are associated with extraterrestrial impactors, with the two events occurring within <25 ky of each other. Despite the large size of impactors, no isotopic anomalies or excursions were recorded across the impact horizons[
236]. This is highly unusual, considering that the total energy involved is not much smaller than that of the Chicxulub impactor, assumed to be the primary cause of the disruptions leading to the Cretaceous-Paleogene mass extinction. However, climatic disruption did occur in the late Eocene some 100,000 years before the impacts[
236]. Thus, this may indeed be an example of misplacement of events due to an asymmetric disturbance of decay rates.
Note that one reason for the existence of asymmetric effects is the conservation of relativity in causality or causal order, postulated in CR.
Neutrino flux can also be decreased indicating shortening (rather than expansion) of time intervals, although in this context the increase of the flux is expected.
Due to accumulation of effects over time, duration of fossilized events would apparently increase with time making older events seem longer in duration compared to more recent events. This is exactly the case with current fossil evidence of past carbon cycle disruptions.
In such case, the current rate of injection is probably not different from those in previous major extinctions (the fact that it is anthropogenic makes no difference).
If one assumes that the average period between extinctions is equal to the 2nd order oscillation period of the Solar System, in case of ideal synchronization, it is quantized by the 3rd order period of existence (
= 1.512 ×
years). In such case, assuming the period must be roughly 26 or 27 million years, the proper period is:
This is in agreement with the previously determined periodicity of impact cratering (25.8±0.6 ×
years)[
212].
One can now assume that the
injection within the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary (66.5 - 65.5 mya) is equal to the current injection (currently dominantly anthropogenic) and that increase of decay rates (effective compression of time, causing boundary to be significantly overestimated in duration) is induced within the boundary - with the start of the boundary corresponding to
and its end to
in
Figure 22.
Assuming
increased from 780 ppmv to 1440 ppmv (
= 660 ppmv) in the period 66.5 mya - 65.5 mya (
= 1 million years)[
237], compression of time
with each major extinction is:
where
is the period of 660 ppmv of anthropogenic
increase since year 1850 (assuming this is the start of the new boundary), calculated using (C1.1).
Such compression of time is easily achievable using C1.2. In example, for
e:
Half-life of e decreasing by the above equation, reaches required time compression in year 2065, on day 66 of the year. Source code:(Fig.: getage.php +)
However, year 1850 as the start of the boundary may not be convincing and recent research shows injection of ∼250 ppm, not 660 ppm, within the K-Pg boundary, though this does not affect compression () significantly (it makes it larger for a couple of decades at most).
Probably most likely start of the new boundary (end of Holocene) is year 2065 or 2066, which, with an increase of 250 ppm, gives year 2084 as the end, the same as in the previous assumption (1850 + 234 = 2084).
Number of 3rd order cycles of existence since Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event (66 mya):
Decay rates may be affected by the cycle of any order, however, beyond the 3rd order, the effect is probably negligible. Here, thus, only 2nd and the 3rd order cycles will be taken into account (the effect is largest at the end of a 1st order cycle, however, that cycle is irrelevant in the current context).
Gravitational collapses during strong evolution pulses with a period of years (3rd order period) may last only = 19.3 seconds, but collapses during stronger evolution pulses occurring with a period of years (2nd order) last longer (7 days should be the maximum to conserve structural stability, as calculated previously).
Synchronized with each large extinction, gravitational maxima of the Sun collapse.
This, may or may not - depending on interpretation (mass being shielded or not) and the current energy level of the outer graviton, result in the release of condensed energy beyond the Sun’s surface - effectively expanding the Sun. In any case, the amount of collapsed maxima should be inversely proportional to cycle order. Major extinctions are correlated with 2nd order cycles. At the end of such cycle, probably both the inner and outer maxima (or, large scale gravitons) of the Sun collapse temporarily.
Assuming [information about] the gravitational disturbance reaches the orbit of Mars at the time the gravitational well is restored (the collapse may be interpreted as the temporary change of energy level of the gravitons), with the disturbance travelling at the speed of light, time of increased decay radiation is, for a 2nd order cycle:
where
is the distance of Mars from the Sun.
Now one can calculate time compression at the end of a 3rd order cycle (
extinction pulse),
, and with a stronger (2nd order) pulse,
:
= cumulative compression of time ≈ 2nd order compression + 3rd order compression = 999766 y
= interval of collapse (disturbed decay rates) for a 2nd order cycle = 760.259 s
= interval of collapse for a 3rd order cycle = 19.3 s
Age of Earth is thus overestimated by:
giving the real age of Earth:
where
= 4.54±0.05 ×
years.
If one assumes that (2nd order period) is the equivalent of 1 day of human embryo development, Earth is at the week 25 (GW25) of the gestation period (right at the beginning, in case of corrected age).
The GW25 marks the end of embryonic neurogenesis in humans and thus agrees with the suggestion of the final major extinction.
The current carbon cycle disruption (6th major extinction) will thus not span thousands (∼10000) of years as predicted by the assumption of constant decay, but possibly 234 years starting from year 1850 (∼10000 years of already passed Holocene extinction may be regarded as a precursor to the major event starting with the year 1850).
Note that this year corresponds to 950 ppm, as predicted by (C1.1).
The calculations above should be understood as the proof of concept, at least. The actual / ratio could be different in reality, however, probably not much. The chosen value for may seem arbitrary, but it is based on the assumption of entanglement between and scales. Since the period (1.512 × y) is equal to the half-life of standard e, the period is assumed to be equal to the half-life of (19.3 s) - this should be the correct order of magnitude for the value at least. What is interesting about this value is that a wave/information travelling at the standard speed of light, after this amount of time, reaches the distance from the Sun exactly equal to 1/10 of the orbital distance of Mercury. Also interesting is the fact, that, with the same / ratio, but assuming is equal to the maximum value (7 days), the value of becomes such that the information travelling at the standard speed of light for the same amount of time reaches exactly 10 times the orbital distance of Neptune. Is this a coincidence, or does it suggest that the / ratio could be correct? For example, assuming is 10 times smaller than the maximum (7/10 = 0.7 days) or that is 10 times larger than 19.3 seconds, with the ratio conserved, information about the collapse reaches Neptune/Mercury, respectably, after the interval of time equal to . Note that Mercury - representing the innermost positive charge, and Neptune - representing the outermost negative charge, should be entangled according to the original hypothesis (equivalence of the Solar System with an standard isotope). Note that the same ratio can then be obtained if one assumes that graviton expansion, or information, travels at the speed of light (2.93 × m/s). Restoration of the well once the information or graviton expansion reaches Mercury/Neptune does seem realistic as these are the particles that should be affected with the decay of
/. One can now assume that the decay of the isotope has a chance to occur at periodic intervals (hence the probabilistic nature of half-life), correlated with graviton collapses, but it occurs only if the well (gravitational, on large scale) fails to restore before the information reaches the particle associated with the decay. Note that the proper superposition of orbital distances (relative to the proper event horizon) of Mercury and Neptune could give the orbital distance of the neutrino associated with the decay. A very interesting example of how one could learn about the details of the mechanics of certain unobservable phenomena on small scale by observing the large scale equivalent. Although, in this case at least, one may die while observing it...
Note that the 7 day interval can, again, be correlated with religion. One story that withstood the test of time and made its way into the Bible (under a different name though) is the story of a world-destroying flood, in the Epic of Gilgamesh (but similar stories, some of which are not based on this one, exist all over the world). In the story, raging wind, torrent, tempest and flood overwhelmed the world during 6 days and 6 nights, only to calm down on the 7th day. Exactly what can be expected in a major extinction correlated with graviton collapses and hypothesized planetary neurogenesis.
16.4.1. Magnetic Field Collapse and Tipping Points
As noted before, the 6th major extinction will likely include a decline of the Earth’s magnetic field, either as a temporary excursion (partial or global collapse), part of a complete reversal, or even a longer-lasting or permanent retreat. The Earth’s magnetic field is currently declining at an accelerated rate, which, when coupled with the rapid movement of magnetic poles, indeed could be interpreted as a sign of imminent collapse (although a temporary fluctuation cannot be excluded). The previously determined correlation of the 4th order period of general oscillation of the Solar System with past excursions (see chapter 9. The cycles) also suggests that, at least, a magnetic excursion is near.
If that is so, when will the collapse, partial or not, occur?
With no further acceleration of the decline the collapse would occur sometime beyond year 2100. However, such scenario is unlikely - a tipping point and additional acceleration is expected for a collapse.
The collapse should also be relatively synchronized with other impactful events, which, as I hypothesize, are correlated with the rate of evolution - which is currently correlated with the rate of atmospheric increase. With the assumption of tipping events occurring with every 50 ppm increase of (or the equivalent energy increase), per the equation C1.1, one obtains the following years:
2029, 2040, 2048, 2055, 2061, 2066, ...
Thus, the magnetic collapse should not occur before the year 2029 (or, 450 ppm ) and most likely not after the year 2066. per the calculation done in 9. The cycles, it’s most likely to occur sometime about 2046, however, it a full reversal is imminent, it may be preceded by multiple partial and/or temporary excursions, perhaps even with the first one occurring about the year 2029.
Tipping points
It has been postulated in CR that energy exists at different scales. In some interpretations this is the simultaneous existence of one and the same energy (implying any difference is in the metric and/or the frame of reference), in another, the equivalence is more relative. In any case, however, entanglement exists between scales. The transition between energy levels on one scale can be interpreted as discrete, on the other continuous. From our perspective, the increase in (energy) is continuous and is coupled to some proportionally increasing values (e.g., temperature), however, apart from the continuous changes, correlated abrupt changes can happen as well, and these abrupt changes can be interpreted as a discrete transition from one stable state to another. Energy levels generally follow exponential progression, the , or atmospheric energy, is rising exponentially as well. Is it possible that the amount of energy correlated with an increase in 50 ppm represents a discrete quantum of energy in this context and the transition from an energy level (relatively stable state) to another then requires an amount of energy that is an integer multiple of that quantum? Evidently, it is possible, although the exact value of the quantum may be 100 ppm (as noted already) but it may also be smaller than 50 ppm (e.g., 25).
The question is, what kind of tipping points do the calculated years potentially represent?
As noted already, Tunguska event occurred at 300 ppm, Chelyabinsk occurred at 400 ppm and a fairly large asteroid (Apophis) will at least get extremely close to Earth in the year 2029, when the equation predicts 450 ppm. The equation gives 400 ppm for 2015/2016, which may have been a tipping point on some levels (for example, 2016 was the hottest year on record until 2023, and a rapid growth of atmospheric methane was observed at the time[
239], some claim a tipping point regarding civilization collapse at the same time[
232]). Thus, good correlation exists with asteroid impacts and there are signs of correlation with tipping points of different nature. It is possible then that even the magnetic field collapse would be synchronized with this.
Since the energy required for transition between energy levels decreases with the increase in level, the temporal distance between tipping points should be decreasing as well. Assuming Tunguska and Chelyabinsk events represent adjacent energy levels (and assuming hypothesized transition occurred), the next transition should require less than 100 ppm, and the most likely value is probably 50 ppm, giving year 2029 for the tipping point. Interestingly, the current solar cycle is expected to end about the same time - when the solar activity should be at the minimum and at half-point between reversals. This may not be relevant, however, as noted before, magnetic excursions and reversals on Earth may be highly correlated with the changes in the Sun’s magnetic activity. No significant mass ejections are expected at the cycle end. If the magnetic field collapse is correlated with mass ejections, it probably should be correlated with the solar cycle maximum, and of the obtained years, the next closest year that could be synchronized with such maximum is the year 2048, or about the time when 550 ppm [energy equivalent] is reached.
Note that the calculated years should be interpreted as probability maxima, correlated events should occur about the predicted year, may not occur exactly in the predicted year.
Of course, due to a small dataset, confidence here is not very high. Additional research (or more time) is needed to confirm this hypothesis.
16.4.2. Sea Level Changes and Migration
Assuming high similarity in neurogenesis between scales, planetary neurogenesis requires transfer of differentiated progenitor cells to subterranean world, into designated mantle layers. Therefore, a passageway would have to exist somewhere, connecting the surface with underground tunnels leading to such places. These tunnels may be long-lived or re-created as needed. The passageway on the surface, however, is unlikely to be open all the time. It is a relative equivalent of a mouth and living beings generally do not keep their mouths open all the time. Those who do not communicate verbally, may open their mouths only at feeding time.
Note that cultivated cells/proteins on the surface can certainly be interpreted as food (this is the case for migrating cells in standard embryogenesis as well). Everything that becomes incorporated in the body (whether during development or in adult stage of the host) can be interpreted as food. And it is not unusual for the individual quanta of that food to be many orders of magnitude smaller than the organism feeding on them. Consider whales feeding on plankton. Now, what could whales evolve into if they could evolve further? Probably an organism cultivating food on its surface. The food (e.g., something evolved from plankton) takes energy from the environment to grow and multiply. Once certain mass is established, the host stimulates the food quanta to migrate towards the mouth. By the time they arrive, the mouth is opened and they are further stimulated to go inside. Once the food is digested (which may or may not be necessary) and incorporated into the body, the waste products are expelled through another opening, or pores on the body. At least some of this waste could then be used as fertilizer on the surface. If waste is expelled at the time critical mass of food on the surface is reached, the waste itself could serve as a stimulant for migration of food towards the mouth. The benefit of cultivation of food on one’s surface is that no mobility is required. Thus, the energy requirements for life are significantly lower (energy is used solely for maintenance of introversion and intra-species communication). What about reproduction? No reproduction is needed if the population has reached cultivation peak. In other words, evolution has reached its endpoint or evolvability maximum (effective local goal), where the evolved organism may represent, for example, a neuron cell equivalent or an atom equivalent. This does not imply there is no death, such organisms may be regenerated or re-evolved when necessary. In another interpretation, the organism has reached a relative perfection, where further sexual recombination and natural selection would have a low benefit to cost ratio (which is obvious if all members of the population are pretty much identical relative to their function in the environment).
By that interpretation then, Earth is a perfect organism, and so is an atom.
Scaling the largest neuron cells to Earth size, the neural tubes (and possible the surface entrance) must have a radius of at least ≈ 250 metres to allow sequential cell transfer. However, parallel transfer of multiple cells is certainly more plausible - a radius on the order of m or more. If the entrance to the interior is a relatively permanent feature (e.g., representing mouth equivalent) then it must be protected when unused.
The only location where this area could remain hidden (protected) and isolated when unused is probably Antarctica (even if the opening is closed, the additional layer of ice doesn’t hurt, it provides additional protection). Ice melting is then required to expose this location but likely also to raise the sea level as the ocean represents the CSF, the fluid that should flow into the tunnel eventually.
I have assumed humans, in addition to other animals, represent progenitor neural proteins. Even if it may be unlikely that living humans will be migrating deeper into the interior, rather recipes required to reproduce them (DNA), the sea level still would have to be high enough to flow into the tubes and pick up the [cell equivalents containing] viable human genomes. However, even if all the ice melts, depending on the elevation of the entrance this may not be enough. There are three solutions:
additional water comes from the deep and/or from space,
land depression,
cataclysmic flooding, correlated with sudden changes in angular momenta of the Earth’s crust.
The most likely outcome is probably a superposition of these solutions. As noted before, with climate changes (and possibly nuclear war) Antarctica’s habitability will be increasing while the rest of the world is decreasing habitability. Biomass destined for migration (including people, or hybridized people[
240]) will be thus
lured or guided (e.g., by certain fields of potential) to Antarctica prior to migration.
Note that the collapse of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) would significantly decrease temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere while, at the same time, it would further accelerate warming in the Southern Hemisphere, particularly about Antarctica. Apart from increasing storms, flooding and decreasing temperatures in Europe and North America (where, in the east, it would also raise sea level), the collapse would severely disrupt the rains that billions of people depend on for food in India, South America and west Africa. Thus, AMOC collapse would significantly increase habitability of Antarctica while significantly decreasing habitability elsewhere. Thus, this event is likely scheduled to materialize.
Studies are showing up suggesting AMOC is likely to collapse this century. A recent one predicts collapse sometime between 2025 and 2095[
241], with probability maximum at year 2057. That study has been heavily criticized due to reliance on many assumptions, however, a more recent study with a different approach and increased reliability produces a similar result, estimating a mean tipping time at 2050, with a 10-90% confidence interval between 2037 and 2064[
242]. Note that the year 2050 is very close to the one of the here calculated potential tipping points (year 2048/2049, or 550 ppm
equivalent).
Increased levels of radiation (e.g., through a nuclear war, magnetic field anomalies) could also have a role in migration of biomass to Antarctica. Magnetic field is currently decreasing strength while tensions between US/EU and China/Russia are high and have been rising lately.
In standard embryogenesis, migration of cells can be stimulated by excretion of extracellular matrices (various cell products).
Here, one equivalent factor may be hydrogen sulfide (
S), a highly toxic and unpleasant gas, which had a role in at least some past major mass extinctions. For example, natural gases (incl. hydrogen sulfide) leaked from deeper reservoirs in the Arctic could be carried by disturbed polar jet streams towards the equator, stimulating life to migrate south. Indeed, the increasing accumulation of Sargassum seaweed[
243] on the shores of the Caribbean, America and Africa could be interpreted as a precursor to larger hydrogen sulfide emissions (the Sargassum is releasing
S as it rots).
If environmental pressure is required to stimulate migration, a major extinction may be interpreted as a side-effect of migration induction, or a result of filtering - which can also be interpreted as natural selection. Is it a selection of most intelligent, most adaptable and/or most easily manipulated? In any case, those who do not migrate, lack intelligence or adaptation capabilities, are probably those who go extinct and will appear in the fossil record. If intelligence is selected for migration here (effectively, or whatever the interpretation), it is then quite possible that high intelligence has evolved, or has been cultivated, multiple times on Earth.
Assuming the migration will indeed happen this century, rise in atmospheric greenhouse gases seems unlikely to produce adequate rise in temperature required to melt all ice in the predicted short time-frame (≤2066). Thus, different mechanisms may be responsible to induce significant breaking and melting of ice sheets. In addition to greenhouse gases, geothermal sources are likely. Melting can also be accelerated by asteroids, but also by advanced alien species from the deep.
However, if time indeed gets effectively compressed (with temporarily increased decay rates of elements), radioactivity itself could contribute to melting. Assuming that the increase of decay rates of hydrogen and oxygen in water molecules doesn’t produce significant effect (hydrogen probably shouldn’t be affected at all, and the effect may be negligible for all stable isotopes), required radioactivity (heat) may be produced by less stable isotopes trapped in ice or by elements in the crust below it.
Note that a significant amount of sea level rise has been baked in already with the increase of from pre-industrial 280 ppm to present levels (≈410 ppm). The estimates are study-dependent (some are analyses of recent glacial-interglacial fluctuation, others of individual past events with different ranges) and range from 10 - 40 metres. The relationship is not linear and may go roughly like this:
with in the range 200 - 400 ppm, sea level rise baked in is 26 m per 100 ppm of ,
for 400 - 600 ppm, 13 m rise per 100 ppm ,
600 - 800 ppm, 4.3 m rise per 100 ppm .
This would then result in 65.8 m total sea level rise, baked in with rising from 280 ppm to 800 ppm.
Conventional potential for the faster melting of ice and magnetic field migration
The rate of melting of interior ice on Antarctica generally depends on two heat fluxes - flux between the ice sheet and the atmosphere and the flux between the ice sheet and the base (geothermal heat flux).
Melting of ice sheets and erosion of land below are decreasing pressure on the rock and magma below. This should increase magmatism/volcanism and result in a positive feedback. Indeed, studies show a rapid increase in volcanism with the melting of ice caps at the end of the last ice age[
244]. But how rapid can it be?
Recent measurements show that geothermal heat flux is bigger than expected but still low, lower than
, on average[
245]. Much bigger fluxes exist on Antarctica at the vents of subglacial volcanoes where they can be as high as
. If such volcanism would spread all over Antarctica (average heat flux of
), all ice could be melt in about 760 years (without taking into account melting caused by atmospheric heating). At the moment, however, there are no signs of this happening (although this could change with the predicted global increase in volcanism, the signs of which may be here already[
246]).
On the other hand, considering atmospheric heat flux alone, if the average temperature in Antarctica interior would climb by 43.5
∘C (from -43.5
∘C to 0
∘C), 40-50 years would be enough to melt all ice. Is this possible in the short-term? Well, this is exactly what happened on 2022.03.18 at Concordia Station[
247] - temperature measured was a record high -11.8
∘C, about 43.5
∘ higher than the median average for that day of the year.
Others report a temperature of -11.5
∘C, claiming 38.5
∘C higher than normal[
248]. Not 43.5
∘, but close.
Similar was measured in Vostok, and these places are the coldest places in Antarctica. Is this the signal that yearly average of 0∘ C could be reached in the short-term? I wouldn’t be surprised. However, melting of all ice is not required for the migration to Antarctic lava tubes. What is certainly required for this is a sufficiently large area to contain the biomass destined for migration. Before the migration to lava tubes, settlements may form on the surface. This may be an area with a significant geothermal flux. And the Earth’s magnetic field, which will become fragmented and weak generally, may have a significant dipole component concentrated in this area for some time. Depending on the sources of the magnetic field and how actually it is generated, it is possible that magnetic field does not collapse simultaneously everywhere. Magnetic shield could be thus active on Antarctica for some time after the northern areas lose protection. One possibility is the local establishment of a circumpolar current of ions (or gyres of ions) which would sustain the local magnetic field (similar to the geodynamo in the core). If the metal enriched circumpolar magma ring would form simultaneously with the decline of the magnetic field, the magnetic field would induce currents in the ring which would then create magnetic fields on their own. These fields could be sustained for some time even after the original (global) field declines to the interior. In this case, the currently existing oceanic circumpolar current could be interpreted as a precursor of such current. Note that ice on Antarctica does melt more at the edges of the continent rather than deeper in the interior. This decrease in pressure at the edges could help to establish the circumpolar ring of magma (which could then further help in melting of the ice).
Note that the entire process could be correlated with the energy level changes of the Earth’s large scale graviton(s), which may include excitation of the dipole (or one of its components) as well - increase of the dipole offset and its localization near the south pole. Since graviton energy level changes are further correlated with asteroid impacts, the impacts could contribute to the formation of the ring-like magmatism/volcanism as well.
In the process, a circumpolar ring of ridges on the crust surface could be formed, similar to the current mid-ocean ridges. And, similarly to the current creation of oceanic floor at mid-ocean ridges, new oceanic crust could be formed here as well, flowing radially inward and outward from the ring. If the magnetic field would be changing polarity during this process, a parallel circular stripes of the alternating magnetic polarity would be fossilized in the magnetite crystals as the lava cools. Now, if the planetary neurogenesis is not exclusive to Earth, rather common in terrestrial planets (as hypothesized, only temporal/spatial scales and rates of evolution differ) and possibly also moons of outer planets, the remnants of these stripes could be present even today on some of these bodies. Indeed, such remnants have been found on Mars[
249].
Note that, if this volcanism has covered the entire planet or almost the entire planet (as evidence suggests[
250]), any traces of past life that existed prior to migration must be buried below. Since the newly formed crust is thinnest at the north pole, this is where any potential search for this past life should probably start (alternative are the exposed deeper regions).
Note also that such extremely large resurfacing of material would hollow out extremely large tunnels below the surface. These would then probably represent neural tubes, but also could be reused as a habitat by life that remains on surface after the neurogenesis event, or even extraterrestrial visitors.
It is possible that the magnetic field on the south pole is sustained for millions of years, perhaps for the duration of another 2nd order cycle (about 26 million years). In that case, the hypothesized migration to mantle layers may not occur during the current event, rather in the next one, with the current event including only the surface migration and concentration of biomass on the south pole. However, I find that unlikely. In any case, if this magnetic field will be sustained for longer time, some life will probably remain on surface during that time (possibly the neutral, non-migrating/non-diverging individuals).
The Creation of Deeper Tunnels
By the theory, large scale gravitons (probably inflated from smaller scale) should be commonly involved in the formation of stars and planetary bodies. The inflation (or initial over-inflation followed be deflation and stabilization at the new energy level) of a graviton and dark matter associated with it is relatively synchronized with the clumping of real mass (ordinary matter) and makes the process of formation much faster and possible even in cases of strongly diluted real mass (like in the Kuiper belt of the Solar System, for example).
Given the generally torus-like shape and rotation of gravitons, concentration of mass is not isotropic.
Mass in planetary bodies should then be differentiated not only vertically, but horizontally as well, with lower density at the poles and possibly even with tubes (tunnels) connecting poles of large scale gravitons, or different energy levels in case of a single oscillating graviton (although these tunnels in terrestrial bodies would have to be eventually filled with fluids to ensure stability).
Note that Earth’s gravity is greater on the poles, but not as much as would be expected for either simple compression or redistribution of material. Density does seem to be somewhat lower at the poles. Are there tunnels below? Long-lived tunnels, except near gravitons, seem unlikely due to increasing pressure with depth, however, fluid density should be increasing with depth as well. High polarization and angular momentum of the wall material (or the fluid) can increase the stability of such tubes but this is not expected for the walls in terrestrial bodies (fluid flowing towards the centre would, however, possess an angular momentum). Long term stability could be ensured with appropriate density of energy levels and relatively frequent oscillation of large scale gravitons as this provides multiple density maxima. Lateral density gradient (with increasing density away from the pole) also decreases pressure on the tube and such gradients are likely for rotating bodies (note that Earth rotated much faster during formation). Otherwise, tunnels may be only periodically recreated (fluids remelt). I suspect that on bodies like Earth the fluids involved should be [salty] water and magma, with dominant fluid probably depending on the pole. Land should be depressed at the entrance where water is involved, however, it may be elevated on the pole where magma is involved. Interestingly, the subglacial topographic depression in Antarctica known as Wilkes land anomaly (elsewhere hypothesized 480 km wide impact crater, which would make it the largest impact crater on Earth) was directly antipodal to Siberian Traps (largest known volcanic event in the last 500 million years) during the Permian-Triassic boundary (Siberian Traps are considered to be the primary cause for the Permian-Triassic extinction, largest mass extinction on Earth).
Interestingly, the Siberian Traps may not be the only large scale phenomenon the Wilkes anomaly was antipodal to over time.
The 31 km wide Hiawatha structure on Greenland, hypothesized to be an impact crater, seems to have been antipodal to Wilkes anomaly at the time of the hypothesized impact (estimated to have occurred about 58 million years ago[
251]). However, rather than being directly correlated with Hiawatha structure, Wilkes may be directly correlated with the creation of the Iceland hotspot (likely a mantle plume effect), which was located beneath Greenland at the time[
252] and was responsible for the strong wide-spread volcanism (comparable to Deccan Traps) occurring there some 60 million years ago (Vaigat formation).
Currently, however, the Iceland hotspot is antipodal to the Balleny hotspot (Balleny islands), which may not be correlated with a mantle plume[
253].
It is questionable whether impacts alone can cause significant igneous activity on the other side of the planet (although they can certainly cause earthquakes and can energize existing activity). However, the recreation of tunnels with graviton oscillation should create such phenomena at antipodal locations - depression on the side of water entrance/exit, bulges or traps at the side of magma expulsion (masking the depression). If Earth is modelled as a living being, different products on entrance and exit are expected. As tectonic plates move with time, the locations on the surface should move as well. I believe that all major mass extinctions are correlated with recreation of the tunnels. The Siberian Traps are already considered to be the result of a mantle plume which effectively is a
temporary creation of a tunnel between the planet’s core and surface through which magma flows upwards. Antipodal volcanism is common to large craters of the Moon and Mars[
254] and there are other examples of antipodal relationships on Earth involving large igneous provinces and hotspots (Yellowstone, for example, is antipodal to French Southern and Antarctic Lands). All of these may be correlated with oscillation of large scale gravitons and associated temporary recreation/reactivation of tunnels. In fact, deep mantle plumes may not be possible without it. As noted before, energy level changes cannot be absolutely spontaneous and large impacts can be interpreted as relative triggers of energy level changes of large scale gravitons. If graviton is, at the time of impact, oriented in such way that its axis of rotation is aligned with the impact site, and this should be likely at least for impacts occurring near the poles (possibly nearer magnetic ones if these are present), then the impact can be correlated with antipodal volcanism. In that case, the seismic energy generated by the impact further stimulates the flow of fluids through the tunnels, increasing the effect on surface (note that impacts do create chimneys of stress connecting the impact source with the antipodal location[
255]). Generally, however, impact sites may not be aligned with the graviton axis at the time of impact and the magnitude of extinction then should be proportional to the alignment. The exceptional magnitude of Permian-Triassic extinction thus can be explained as a result of unusually high alignment.
If there are multiple gravitational maxima in the mantle, the lateral pathways in the core-mantle heat convection cells must be branching, corresponding to the number of maxima. Thus, plate tectonics may be present in multiple places, at different depths, in the upper mantle as well.
2025.01.24
Recent research goes in favour of this hypothesis[
256]. The subduction of tectonic plates may not go as deep as previously thought. Deeper seismic anomalies previously associated with the subduction/recycling of surficial plates may rather be associated with different tectonic systems (potential habitable zones) at different levels of the mantle, as hypothesized above.
In fact, I suspect that surficial plate tectonics is only active during embryonic development, and possibly, in a limited way, during adult neurogenesis in mature planets (assuming it does happen on the surface).
In any case, the transfer of organics into the deep with the influx of salty oceanic water may be synchronized with the antipodal expulsion of magma and/or greenhouse gases. This expulsion would probably be methane dominated (which, however, would quickly oxidize into ) - explaining the dominance of in the atmospheres of Venus and Mars. Methane is already seeping from the depths in the Arctic - which could be interpreted as a precursor to this main event.
Interesting, in this context, is the previously hypothesized creation of a ring of fire at the south pole in the 6th major extinction. Here, lava spreading inwards could accumulate on the surface, but if this is indeed building of new crust it should include the subduction of the crust near the centre (which would be, by the hypothesis, also a magnetic pole). This material would be subducted in a gyrating fashion and would carry water with it as well. This can be interpreted as a creation/opening of the central tunnel leading to the deep. Conventionally, however, this process would occur slowly, over millions of years. Suppose, however, that the localized magnetic field is extremely strong and that flowing crust is in the form of magma. Superposition of water and magma would differentiate (subducting material would be layered). If vacuum exists in the deep (possible with multiple gravitational maxima), the pressure difference could further speed up the process (depending on conditions, this could allow even for the transfer of air). Multiple gravitational maxima in the Earth’s interior would ensure that differentiation is conserved. If vacuum exists, however, it is not required for the material to flow down differentiated, it can be differentiated in situ (e.g., through evaporation of volatiles). Differentiated transfer is only required in case it includes a transfer of biomass and structural integrity of that biomass has to be preserved. Now, if plate tectonics on the surface stops, it could still be active deeper in the mantle - the plates would simply cycle between different discontinuities (assuming plate tectonics is required to preserve life). Note that life in the interior does not require magnetic fields for protection and conservation of the atmosphere. It has a passive shield in the form of solid matter. Progression towards passive and more energy efficient solutions is probably expectable for the progressive evolution/development of a lifeform.
But is this type of transfer limited to the final major extinction? Probably not. Difference may be in the entrance points, extent of volcanism and the magnetic field (which may not lose global presence in other extinctions).
16.4.3. Analysis of Past Extinctions
Here, past extinctions are analysed for periodicity, with incorporated corrections due to previously calculated time compression with pulses of decay rate changes.
Periodicity is tested using circular spectral analysis[
257] of a couple of datasets, which all give similar results.
Data is grouped into energy levels corresponding to the extinction magnitude (5 - major extinctions, 4 - minor extinctions, 3 - other extinctions, 2 and 1 - potential extinctions).
The Method
In the circular model of periodicity a time line is wrapped about a circle, the circumference of which represents a trial period. For each occurrence, a unit vector from the origin is calculated. If periodic, the series will tend to form a cluster at one point on the circumference when the correct trial period is used. Here, angular location relative to 0∘ (present) gives the phase ().
Ages of individual events (
) are transformed to angles (
,
) for each trial period P:
where R is the mean vector magnitude (normalized measure of goodness of fit). The phase shift (
) is calculated as follows:
Dataset 1
Extinction events in dataset 1, grouped into energy levels and calculated corrected ages for these events, respectively, are shown in

Here, for R = 0.413, obtained P = 22.493 My, phase 15.603 My.
Dataset 4
Here I hypothesize that deviations from P are the result of energy splitting into smaller events which when grouped properly would fit on P intervals.
The dataset is the same as dataset 3, except the hypothesized splittings (circled extinction pairs in
Figure 25) have been grouped into a single event, simply by using arithmetic mean age of the pair.
The R peaks at 0.807, corresponding to P = 25.89 My, very close to one obtained from dataset 1. Phase is 9.55 My.

This dataset gives highest R maximum (0.837), a period P = 25.74 My, with a phase of 9.689 My.
Confidence
Note that equal weight was assumed for all extinctions in a particular dataset. Different weights can affect the confidence in the result (less if they are all harmonics). But even with that taken into account, there is high confidence in P ≈ 25.74 My - 25.92 My.
The result with the highest confidence (25.74 My) is also the closest to the calculated ideal quantization by the 3rd order period (1.512 × My) - 25.705 My.
Note that the burning cycle of the Sun’s core is calculated (in the chapter 19.3. Energy replenishment, burning cycles) to be equal to 25.7 My - 25.9 My, further confirming the signal.
Interestingly, taking into account major extinctions only, one of the obtained peaks (with R = 0.94) is at 25.705 My, exactly as needed for ideal quantization. However, as noted before, periodicity is unlikely to be perfect (absolutely it cannot be) and the period probably oscillates about some mean value. Interestingly, the values obtained can be correlated with Earth’s axial precession. The period of this precession was calculated by Newton to be 25920 years (1
∘ per 72 years), which is exactly 1000 times smaller than the value obtained with dataset 1 (25.92 My), suggesting that the axial precession period is a harmonic of the 2nd order period. However, the rate of precession varies with time and the current estimate for the period is 25771.71 years, closer to the value of 25740, which would be the result of division of 25.74 My (obtained with dataset 6) with 1000. Multiplication with 1006 yields 25.92634 My. If the period of axial precession is indeed a harmonic of the 2nd order period, then the two may vary in relative synchrony. If planetary orbitals/resonances are periodically reset (as hypothesized), then the axial precession period would be periodically reset as well. Interestingly, the value of 25.84 My, obtained with dataset 5, divided by 152 gives the current axial precession period for Mars (∼170000 years[
267]). A more precise value for the Mars’ axial precession period (based on 7.576 arcsec/y[
268]) multiplied with 152 yields 26.002112 My. The current axial precession period of Venus (derived from the predicted precession rate of 44.75 arcsec/y[
268]) multiplied by 895 gives exactly 25.920000 My. This suggests that all axial precession periods of planets are harmonics of 2nd order cycles. But it does not end there. The period of perihelion precession of Mercury (5600 arcsec per century[
269], or 56 arcsec/y) multiplied by 1120 gives exactly 25.920000 My as well. In any case, while the effects on Earth are not strongly periodic (e.g., extinctions are obviously not regularly separated precisely by ∼26 My), the 2nd order cycling might still be regular, suggesting that cataclysmic events on Earth are an indirect effect of this oscillation (e.g., gravitational disturbances of asteroids might be regular, but a disturbed asteroid might affect Earth immediately or after a few million years, or not at all, and the impact energy may vary).
Neurogenesis in standard lifeforms on Earth during embryonic development does imply certain, albeit flexible, periodicity or cycling in the formation of brain layers and neuron migration. High energy impact cratering and extinctions/migrations in planetary neurogenesis should be no exception.
With a fixed periodicity of ∼26 My and the last highly energetic extinction 37.8 My in the past, next one would be overdue, roughly by the phase shift.
Note that a delay of extinction could have some relative benefits due to more evolved progenitor neurons at time of differentiation, although with the cost of increased probability of cancer development.
Also note that neurogenesis implies correlation of many processes. Therefore, calculated periodicity should not be limited to mass extinctions, rather present in plethora of other phenomena affecting the planet - volcanism, magnetic reversals, seafloor spreading, orogenic events, etc.
Indeed, such periodicities have been found in previous analyses[
270].
Should this be interpreted as flexibility in the process of neurogenesis or are there hidden variables?
As noted before, major extinctions seem to be grouped in pairs and multiple oscillators should probably be considered. With paired extinctions separated by roughly 63±3 My (in uncorrected ages), major extinction in the present time would be on schedule. This peak can be observed in analysis. Indeed, repeating the analysis for dataset 5, but with only major events (using corrected ages) included, yields highest peak at 12.85 My (the 2nd harmonic of 25.7 My) and R = 0.973, with the 2nd highest peak being at 59.272 My (R = 0.923).
Including current extinction (0 Mya) in the analysis gives highest peak at 59.74 My (R = 0.925) and a phase shift of 2.38 My. Note that, while the hypothesized 3rd order cycle period of 1.512 My is a harmonic of 25.7 My, the 2nd harmonic of 1.512 My (0.756 My) is a harmonic of 12.85 My and is then probably also a harmonic of the bigger period, in which case the correct period would be 59.72 My. Assuming synchronization with this harmonic (0.756 My), last major extinction 62.029
+0.011/−0.043 Mya (66.043
+0.011/−0.043 Mya uncorrected[
271]) gives the interval for the current major extinction 48000 years before present to 6000 years after present. Interesting result, considering the extinction of megafauna (incl. Neanderthals) started some 50000 years ago. The age of 66.006 Mya (uncorrected) for the last major extinction would give exactly the present time for the current extinction.
In any case, this suggests the current major extinction is right on schedule.
Thus, imminent extinction (or the ongoing extinction peak) as calculated using models based on C1.1 equation should not be surprising.

16.4.4. Correlation with mantle layers
Grouping and correlation of extinction events with the formation of brain [mantle] layers also indicates that another major mass extinction should be near, at least in geological terms.
This correlation is shown in
Figure 28 - time between major extinction events of Phanerozoic is proportional to the thickness of the corresponding mantle layer.
Such correlation should not be surprising - all lifeforms grow in layers. But it also confirms the previous hypothesis that asteroid impacts are correlated with discontinuities (changes in energy levels) in Earth. Note that encapsulated growth/development is common in standard embryogenesis. It appears this is the case with planets such as Earth as well.
This is, effectively, a conversion of temporally separated discontinuities into events separated in space.
To quantify the correlation, periods of weak evolution and thicknesses of mantle layers have been normalized:
Results are shown in
Table 34. Here, corrected extinction ages are used, although non-corrected ages would yield similar results.
Correlation in absolute value varies between the pairs, but overall, it is apparent.
At least some deviation could be explained by the fact that formation is not yet complete - e.g., the boundary between layers 3 and 4 might change with the pending extinction.
If layer 3 decrease would be equal to layer 4 increase (≈ 0.0575 in normalized value) and layer 1 decrease to layer 2 increase (≈ 0.0275 ≈ 0.0575 / 2), with a small decrease in layer 5 (0.013 ≈ 0.0275 / 2) coupled with equivalent increase in layer 6, normalized extinction and mantle boundaries would be almost equal.
Effectively, what is necessary for better agreement is the upward movement of 3 discontinuities (between layers I and II, III and IV, V and VI).
There are two interpretations for the correlation. Extinction events are either memorized in Earth’s [brain] mantle as they occur or they are programmed events and can be predicted through the analysis of discontinuities (layers) in the mantle. The ongoing 6th major extinction and existing discontinuity at 100 km depth suggest the latter, although superposition may be more likely - discontinuities are ancient but they move/adjust as extinctions occur.
In any case, the correlation is good evidence for living Earth and its neurogenesis.
The entanglement of 3 discontinuities (I/II, III/IV, V/VI) suggests that all 3 move during a single extinction, thus, if movement is correlated with asteroid impacts, 3 impacts may be ahead.
However, exact location of boundaries is a matter of debate. They must have some thickness, so it may be more appropriate to equate layer thickness with distance between discontinuities. If that would be a distance between lower discontinuities of two boundaries, it would, for layer 1, yield a normalized value exactly equal to the corresponding normalized period of weak evolution:
Also, globally average velocities might not be the best choice for determination of layer discontinuities - e.g., Lehmann discontinuity is at 220 km for tectonic North America, but 200 km for shield North America[
276], while it may be absent beneath north Atlantic and other oceans. Whether the discontinuity is global or not may depend on impactor energy and the stability of a graviton at particular energy level. If the discontinuity is not global, the impactor site should probably be antipodal to the discontinuity.
Note that layers in human neocortex also vary in thickness[
277], depending on the area, so this is not unexpected.
No graviton can be completely neutral. At the time a discontinuity is occupied by a [large scale] graviton, a hole, proportional to polarization, is expected. Physical imprint may be further complicated with the presence of multiple gravitons and may be affected by additional disturbances.
If one assumes that 200 km is a
proper boundary (220 km may simply represent additionally disturbed 200 km boundary, it may even be reduced again to 200 km with complete formation), the correlation with extinctions for both layers, I and II, becomes remarkable:
Some report the base of the upper mantle at 670 km[
278] (it is also the average beneath China[
274]) rather than 660, this improves the correlation with layers 5 and 4:
Now, the only
problematic boundary is the one between layers 3 and 4 (at 520 km). Some do report this boundary at 500 km[
279], which gives much better agreement:
Note that extinction boundaries also have some thickness or uncertainties, notably first three, which may explain differences in reported discontinuity depths. The 3rd major extinction (Permian) is apparently split into two events (End-Capitanian and Permian-Triassic). Using End-Capitanian 245.793 Mya (259.8 Mya uncorrected) instead of Permian-Triassic 238.041 Mya (251.9 Mya uncorrected) as the date of this extinction gives results in remarkable agreement with the obtained layers 3 and 4 (with discontinuities at 410 km, 500 km and 670 km):
The complete correlation, with above adjustments, is shown in
Table 35 (with ages rounded to a single decimal). The correlation, using uncorrected ages for major mass extinctions, is shown in
Table 36.
Interestingly, corrected ages are in all cases except for i=4 in better agreement with mantle layers. Unless an artefact of rounding/imprecision (e.g., in depths of discontinuities, which may be averages) this can be interpreted as evidence for effective time compression (pulses of abrupt temporary changes in decay rates of elements).
The excellent agreement here suggests no further adjustment of discontinuities is needed, except possibly for layer I, as shown in green in
Figure 28 (right) which should be unsurprising given the correlation with the current extinction.
Correlation of layer 6 and the corresponding period of weak evolution has not been determined due to unknown boundary.
However, assuming the extinction at the start of Phanerozoic (511.664 mya in corrected age, or 541 mya non-corrected) is correlated with the lower boundary of layer 6, one can calculate the thickness of layer 6:
In that case, a discontinuity, if formed, should exist in Earth’s mantle at a depth of 937 km (assuming boundary between layer 5 and 6 at 780 km).
Apparently, this discontinuity has been detected[
280] (at 940 km).
Using most recent data
The precision in extinction ages has improved since the chapter was written. This is an update (2024.07.30), showing even better agreement with mantle layers.
Mass extinctions are not instantaneous events and, usually two years are associated with a particular extinction. In such cases, the average of the two is probably a better choice (especially considering that mantle discontinuities have certain thickness as well, and the average is usually used) and that average is used here. The Late Ordovician mass extinction is considered to have occurred ∼445-443 Ma[
281], thus 444 Ma is used as the date. The Late Devonian extinction occurred about 372 Ma[
282]. The Permian-Triassic and the Capitanian (also known as end-Guadalupian) extinctions are both extreme events and are very close together on the geological timeline. Thus, instead of using both, only the date for the Capitanian extinction was used. The Capitanian extinction occurred 262-259 Ma[
283], thus, 260.5 Ma was used for the date. The end-Triassic extinction occurred 201.6 Ma[
283], while the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction occurred 66 Ma[
283]. Results are shown in
Table 37.
Note, however, that using 445.2 Ma here instead of 444 Ma gives better or equal results for all periods except for i=5, as follows: 0.164, 0.250, 0.132, 0.305, 0.148.
Table 38 shows the same using corrected ages.
In any case, small deviation in correlation probably should be attributed to mantle instabilities, or oscillation/fluctuation of discontinuities over time. Discontinuities associated with graviton energy levels will probably drift from the level over time (e.g., due to changes in pressure/temperature), only to return and stabilize at the original position once the level is occupied again. Thus, higher deviation in correlation above may indicate levels that have been unoccupied for longer time. By the hypothesis, these should be the upper layers and that indeed seems to be the case. Small adjustment of the two uppermost layers (discontinuities at 200 and 100 km) gives perfect correlation for all periods/layers, as shown in
Table 39. These discontinuities then should be adjusted with the upcoming impact(s). Note that energy required for a jump between energy levels is proportional to distance between the two levels. If these are adjacent levels, according to
Table 39, energy required should be higher for levels at 500 km and 203 km. If higher energy here corresponds to higher impactor energy it probably also corresponds to a bigger extinction event. These two levels are associated with Capitanian/Permian-Triassic and Cretaceous-Paleogene extinctions, and these indeed are bigger extinctions than Late Devonian and end-Triassic. By that logic, assuming the
current energy level is near 200 km and the
upcoming is near 100 km, the current extinction strength should be between end-Triassic and Late Devonian in strength. However, if the
current energy level is at 410 km (which may be more likely, if 410 km represents a stabilized state, while the uppermost two need adjustment), then the current extinction should be one of the strongest.
With the start of the Phanerozoic at 538.8±0.2 Ma[
284] and the Late Ordovician boundary at 445.2±1.4 Ma[
284], thickness of the layer 6 is:
A discontinuity then should exist at a depth of 780 + 140.7 = 920.7 km. Apparently, this discontinuity has been detected at 920 km[
285], although it may not be global.
Some discontinuities show high global variation (e.g., the 670 km discontinuity ranges from 650 to 690 km). In case of discontinuities assumed to represent phase boundaries, the variation is assumed to be a consequence of temperature variation, according to the Clapeyron slope. However, the additional perturbation after initial boundary establishment can also be interpreted as mantle tissue gyrification, resulting in the increase in surface area of the layer (relatively equivalent to the gyrification of the brain mantle in mammals on Earth). As noted before, even if the conventional assumption is correct, multiple valid interpretations are common in nature.
The whole Phanerozoic seems to be linearly mapped to the mantle, but to what depth is this time-space correlation valid? Assuming it is valid all the way down to the centre of Earth, using Earth’s volumetric mean radius (6371 km), this would give for the age of the Earth:
where
k (≈2/3) is the factor of time/space proportionality.
Although relatively close, this is lower than the conventional estimates of Earth’s age (not much lower, however, than the estimate with time compression taken into account). However, linear extrapolation may be valid down to the inner core. Inner/outer core discontinuity, assuming inner core size of 1216 km[
286] would then correspond to 3.33 Ga (billion years ago). Interestingly, this is equal to the current estimate on the rise of Earth’s continents[
287], and apart from mantle plumes, can be associated with a large impact 3.33 Ga[
288]. The core/mantle discontinuity, assuming core size of 3486 km[
289], corresponds to 1.83 Ga, which seems to be equal to one boundary of the "Boring Billion"[
290], and could also be correlated with a large impact (Sudbury crater, dated to 1.85 Ga[
291]). Extreme events at 3.33 Ga and 1.8 Ga have also been recorded on the Moon[
292].
Interestingly, while the above calculated age does not represent Earth’s current age, that age can be obtained if one applies the temporal correlation to the lithosphere and atmosphere (up to the exosphere) as well. With atmosphere/exosphere discontinuity (thermopause) at 500 km[
293], one obtains the age:
This is within the uncertainty of Earth’s estimated age of 4.54±0.05 Gy[
294]. Considering that exosphere probably should not be considered as a part of atmosphere, or, as an
intrinsic part of a planet (some smaller bodies in the Solar System, for example, have exospheres, but no dense atmosphere beneath), this may not be a coincidence either (although it is questionable whether the atmosphere itself should be considered
intrinsic). Note, however, that the thermopause height varies, depending on energy input. Intense solar radiation can extend it far beyond the base of 500 km, up to 1000 km[
295]. The value of
k factor is also interesting, if fixed to 2/3, one obtains the age of 4.58 Gy.
Interestingly, using mesopause (discontinuity between mesosphere and thermosphere) as the boundary (≈85 km altitude), one obtains the age in agreement with previously calculated corrected age of Earth:
Using k fixed to 2/3, the agreement is even better, producing 4.3 Gy (calculated corrected age is 4.29±0.05 Gy). It thus appears that none of the discontinuities (whether internal or external) are random.
Resolving Potential Issues
While the high correlation is apparent in presented matches, there are potential arguments against the used values. Why using Capitanian instead of Permian-Triassic, or both? In other words, why is Capitanian correlated with a discontinuity, while Permian-Triassic is not? The reason behind this is simply the very small temporal period between the events, making it unlikely that both were synchronized with a large impactor, and since impacts are probably required for the correlation with discontinuities, it is assumed that only Capitanian was synchronized with a large asteroid impact event. One could then argue that a discontinuity at 520 km, rather than 500 km, should have been used in the comparison because it is present in more regions globally than the one chosen. In some regions, this discontinuity is present at 560 km, so the two (500 km and 560 km) discontinuities can be interpreted as "splitting" of the 520 km discontinuity[
279]. However, that is just one interpretation. It is possible that for any large impactor an associated discontinuity should exist, and that major mass extinctions sufficiently far apart should be synchronized with such impactors. This does not rule out the existence of discontinuities uncorrelated with large impacts. One could ask why do grouped discontinuities exist? For example, why are there discontinuities at 500 and 560 km, instead of one global 520 km discontinuity? The reason for this may very well be impactors, in this case the Capitanian impactor, causing regional disruption of the 520 km discontinuity, or, perhaps global disruption of the 500 km discontinuity. Other discontinuity variations could be explained similarly. One could argue that, so far, only the Cretaceous–Paleogene has a confirmed impactor associated with the extinction. However, extensive volcanism - which is commonly interpreted as having a big role, could be associated with antipodal impacts[
296]. For example, the subglacial topographic depression in Antarctica known as Wilkes land anomaly (assumed to be a 510 km wide impact crater[
297], which would make it the largest impact crater found on Earth, although a promising candidate for a bigger one exists[
298]) was directly antipodal to Siberian Traps (largest known volcanic event in the last 500 million years) ∼260 Ma[
254], what is also the age of the Capitanian extinction. Siberian Traps are considered to be the primary cause for the Permian-Triassic extinction, largest mass extinction on Earth. It is possible that the impact responsible for the Wilkes land anomaly occurred at the time of Capitanian extinction (evidence for that age exists[
254]), which resulted in the emergence of Siberian Traps. The period of time between Capitanian and Permian-Triassic of ∼8 My seems plausible for the emergence time considering the expected depth of melt associated with the seismically focused impact energy. Here, volcanism likely results from induced lithospheric cracking and focusing of asthenospheric melt, as magma is less dense then the overlying mantle and crust. In any case, if impactors are correlated with discontinuities (or, disturbance of discontinuities), this can be experimentally verified, as regions of disturbance should be correlated with the impact site. Note that this antipodal relationship between impacts and volcanism is not limited to Earth, it is also common on the Moon and Mars[
254].
Obviously, correlation becomes less striking by choosing different values for discontinuities that vary in depth, but overall remains significant - variations are concentrated near the values giving high correlation.
Another potential issue is the inclusion of the 780 km discontinuity. All other values used can be correlated with well established global discontinuities, but this one represents a local reflector that may not have global presence (certainly not as a global discontinuity), and it is possible that many such local reflectors exist at various depths. However, this depth has been predicted once other matches for major extinctions were established. Why is this discontinuity not global and should it be? This may require further research, but if correlation requires impactors it is possible that during the Late Ordovician (∼444 Ma) there were no large impactors involved in the extinction, although potential large impactors do exist (Deniliquin[
298], Ishim[
299]). Another possibility is that impactor energy was low, as some correlation is likely to exist between impactor energy and the size of the discontinuity and/or the size of its disturbance (which does not imply, however, that discontinuities are formed at the time of impacts). Also, it cannot be ruled out that the 780 km reflector represents remains of once larger discontinuity. In that case, the impactor energy may have been high but discontinuity may have been relatively unstable (as noted, potential large impactors that can be associated with this discontinuity do exist). Late Ordovician didn’t lack impactors, however. In fact, a
pulse of elevated bombardment seems to have occurred in Ordovician. Evidence exists that this was a consequence of formation and subsequent destabilization of rings of debris about Earth. It has been hypothesized that these rings have been formed through the breakup of a large impactor[
74] (>10 km in diameter). Therefore, it seems that a large impactor was involved after all. Lack of the associated global discontinuity then could be correlated with its breakup and spreading of energy over space and time. Multiple ring-associated impacts have indeed occurred at or near the 444 Ma boundary[
74]. Note that the 780 km reflector has been detected under Mudanjiang, Heilongjiang Province in China, which has been at, or very close to, the equator in Late Ordovician. Impacts at the time were also concentrated at the equator (correlated with rings), and many were found at the opposite side of the world, near the antipodal location to Mudanjiang[
74]. This seems to suggest that the reflector at 780 km depth has moved with tectonic plates, however, other explanations are possible. In any case, this should be further investigated by studying other such correlations.
Why do correlations start at the 100 km discontinuity, not at Conrad, MOHO, surface, or some atmospheric discontinuity? Again, this can be explained by the proposed genetic coding, resulting in development qualitatively relatively similar to the development and growth of living organisms on Earth. For example, tree rings are highly correlated with changes in external conditions (seasons) and their duration, however, this correlation starts below the crust (bark). In a tree, the bark contains the oldest tissue, the youngest is below it. Still, based on fossil records, one could argue that what’s happening today is not even close to the destruction that occurred in the last 5 major mass extinctions. That is certainly true and it is possible that a 100 km discontinuity is inappropriate, however the current trends and rates of global changes strongly suggest we are on the path to a major global catastrophe. One could only question whether the tipping point has been reached or not, and if not, how likely it is that it won’t be reached? Furthermore, the lithosphere is a rigid layer of material and could be interpreted as the equivalent of a bone layer under the crust ectoderm (skin) enveloping the brain (or the equivalent of a bark layer in trees). Mantle below the lithosphere is not as rigid. Thus, in that sense, the chosen discontinuity seems appropriate. Similarities do not end there. Human neocortex has 6 layers and periods between 6 major extinctions here correlate to 6 layers in the Earth’s upper mantle (the Phanerozoic aeon may thus be interpreted as a neocortex aeon). Human skull is composed out of multiple plates that have been stitched together during development. This can be compared to the lithospheric plates, which will eventually become stitched and fixed as well (like it probably has happened on Mars). In any case, further research could verify some of the proposed explanations and the work could prove to be of scientific value even if the proposed hypotheses are rejected.
Possible Requirements
The case of correlation of Capitanian (∼260.5 Ma) and Permian-Triassic (∼252 Ma) extinctions with discontinuities suggests that larger asteroid impacts should be directly correlated with discontinuities, while major mass extinctions could be correlated indirectly. However, asteroid impacts may be associated with all major mass extinctions sufficiently far apart. Capitanian and Permian-Triassic are very close on the geological timeline and two large impactors within such short period are unlikely. The above analysis suggests that the impact should be associated with the Capitanian extinction, while the Permian-Triassic is a result of antipodal volcanism associated with the Capitanian impact. Large impactor and extensive volcanism[
300] are both confirmed for the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction (66 Ma). Evidence exists for the extensive volcanism in the Late Ordovician (∼444 Ma) extinction[
301] and potential large impactors (Deniliquin[
298], Ishim[
299]). Evidence for extensive volcanism correlated with the Late Devonian (372 Ma) extinction exists as well. Interestingly, flood basalt events are estimated at ∼360 Ma[
302], about 12 My later, which is consistent with the impactor at Late Devonian boundary considering expectable volcanism emergence time. Potential associated impactor[
303], or even multiple impactors[
304], exist. Massive volcanic eruptions are considered as the main cause for the End-Triassic (201.6 Ma) extinction[
300]. Candidate impactors exist again, with the largest impactor (Manicouagan) reported some 12 My earlier, at ∼214 Ma[
305], which, however was not antipodal to the End-Triassic volcanism at the time, rather occurred at the same site. However, antipodal relation is not required for the impact to be associated with melts and large igneous provinces occurring on surface 8-12 My later. Emergence at or near the site of impact should be possible as well[
306], which may then be interpreted as a consequence of a reflection of the melt trigger. In case 214 Ma should then be used in the analysis (instead of 201.6 Ma), a discontinuity at 429 km instead of 410 km gives perfect correlation in
Table 39, which is within the range of variation (∼405-440 km[
307]). Interestingly, a peak at 430 km has been detected below the Korean Peninsula and southwestern Japan[
308], it is also the depth of the discontinuity beneath northeastern China[
309], but it is unclear whether this could be correlated with the Manicouagan impactor. Large igneous provinces (LIPs) may commonly occur 10±2 My after large impacts. Indeed, this seems to be the case for the Cretaceous-Paleogene (66 Ma) extinction as well, where LIPs associated with the birth of the Atlantic ocean (separation of Europe and America) occurred 10 My after the impactor, ∼56 Ma. These were some of the most powerful volcanic eruptions in Earth’s history. This was also the age of the Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum[
310]. Unless there is no direct or antipodal relationship, or possible correlation in energy, LIPs may be hard to correlate with impacts, as they seem to occur relatively frequently. However, this frequency (every 20-30 My[
311]) seems to be equal to the frequency of 2nd order impacts so the two probably are indeed correlated, the phase shift between the two can be explained as the time needed for magma to reach the surface. Although most energy is focused on the site of impact and its antipodal location, large impactors will create strong earthquakes globally and may increase effective permeability of the existing deep magmatic systems. In other words, they can trigger or significantly accelerate volcanism at various locations where magma chambers and mantle plume "heads" already exist. Thus, even strong volcanism that is not at the antipodal location of the impact site of a particular impactor may still be correlated with it, and here the emergence time is probably likely to be much lower (100,000 years or less). Indeed, this seems to be the case with the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction, where the Chicxulub impactor provided a boost of energy responsible for at least 70% of the Deccan Traps[
312] (the Wai subgroup).
A very interesting case is the discontinuity at ∼100 km. If we are amidst a major mass extinction, and if such extinctions are correlated with discontinuities (directly or indirectly), a discontinuity about 100 km should exist (with other correlations being correct). This discontinuity does exist, however, there were no recent large asteroid impacts, although a potential candidate exists (Bowers, ∼3 Ma[
313], which, curiously, seems to have an antipodal hotspot - Jan Mayen island). This suggests the impacts (or at least flood basalts) are about to come in relatively near future.
Significance
All sub-surface (or, sub-lithospheric) major seismic discontinuities have been correlated here with major events on Earth’s surface, and this correlation seems to imply large impactors (asteroids and/or comets), although this may not be the sole requirement. Even if one considers alternative values for discontinuities exhibiting depth variation, significant correlation remains, even if not striking. And implied large impactors are rare. The Earth Impact Database lists only 6 confirmed impact craters with transient diameter ≥85 km[
314]. Thus, the odds for this correlation to be a coincidence are low.
Effects on Angular Momenta
Redistribution of mass with energy level changes should have effect on [or be relatively synchronized with changes in] Earth’s angular momentum. Since, with time, mass is redistributed from the core outwards, slowdown of the Earth’s rotation should be accelerated during the redistribution, as well as recession of the Moon due to tidal coupling. With, overall, decreasing energy between transitions the effect should be decreasing as well. Indeed, studies confirm such evolution of Earth/Moon momenta[
315]. Of course, if most mass redistribution has occurred in the earlier days of Earth’s formation (when the mass was hotter and less viscous), which probably is the case, effects during Phanerozoic transitions should be much less pronounced. However, even with no significant mass redistribution, since energy level changes involve graviton spin inversion and gravitational coupling/decoupling is neither absolute nor absolutely instantaneous, this spin inversion will temporarily disturb the Earth’s angular momentum. Since graviton [coupling] collapse is considered to be relatively rapid, the effect on Earth’s surface could be cataclysmic, as sudden change in rotation would result in inertial force driving strong winds and flooding of the land with water from oceans and lakes. Since the angular momentum is greatest at the equator, this is where the effect would be most pronounced.
Why is the Great Pyramid of Giza so massive and located at high elevation? It may have been built by someone who was anticipating such cataclysmic events.
Evidence for Earth’s Expansion or Something Else?
The results of the analysis above can be interpreted as evidence for the linear expansion of Earth since conception, however, any such significant expansion is unlikely[
316]. Earth has been probably initially substantially compressed and then it quickly expanded to the radius roughly equivalent to the current radius. Due to cooling and decreasing rotation, the Earth’s radius should have been actually slowly decreasing since this early expansion. Some effective expansion is possible with the 2nd order impacts and associated graviton energy level changes, as these should be correlated with mass/heat/pressure redistribution. It is possible that hollow regions (similar to lava tubes) are created deeper in Earth with major mass extinctions (possibly correlated with the creation of habitable zones). If the material is expelled to surface and the stability of hollow regions is conserved over time (as noted before, this is possible with multiple gravitational maxima), the Earth’s volumetric mean radius could be increasing with the associated volcanism. However, the individual events do not have global coverage and the effect is obviously different from conventional expansion/inflation which can result in breaking up of continents. This is simply endogenous redistribution of mass, which, considering ages of rocks on the surface, obviously didn’t increase the radius much during the last 3 billion years. Surface expansion (stretching) can occur if some mass from hollowed out regions ends up stored somewhere below surface - causing land uplift, but even in that case the surface expansion is likely to be regional or small.
True global expansion of the radius of real mass is possible with the expansion of the large scale graviton beyond the Earth’s radius, however, the magnitude of the effect depends on the graviton energy density, energy density of real mass, and the strength of the coupling during transition.
Note also that the strength of local gravity should be decreased with graviton collapse (decoupling) - this too can cause expansion, although in the short-term (the collapse is temporary) the effect may be limited to gases (or fluids, in general). However, some fluids could be expelled to surface, atmosphere could expand as well, only to compress afterwards.
Recall that it has been suggested multiple times that Uranus is dead. The fact that it is larger than Neptune while at the same time less massive further suggests that the large scale graviton has indeed decoupled from its body permanently, thus, decreasing the local gravitational coupling (causing gas expansion).
Since it was hypothesized that asteroid impacts during major mass extinctions are the result of capture of nearby asteroids by large scale gravitons, it is indeed possible that some expansion of the Earth occurs with the end of an 2nd order cycle (implying that the asteroid is captured with Earth’s graviton expansion), but it should be followed quickly by contraction so there would be no net effect.
Note that some capture mechanism is probably required in order for these events to be locally coded genesis events. Since major mass extinctions and associated impacts have been correlated with discontinuities (energy levels) in Earth’s mantle, discontinuities in space also represent coded events in time (more precisely, the discontinuities represent coded soul-body transformation events). With relativity in causality, asteroids are only relative triggers of graviton energy level changes. Most likely, graviton collapse occurs prior to the impact, the impact is only synchronized with the settling of the graviton on the new energy level with the absorption of the kinetic energy of the asteroid. Collapse of the graviton here is a wave-like spherical expansion (delocalization) of the graviton, with finite range. Subsequent partial or full coupling of the wave with the asteroid, followed with localization back to Earth could sufficiently slow it down and put it on a collision course with Earth. Here, any artificial satellites are likely to be affected as well.
Graviton (wave) mass density at the Earth’s surface radius, should be, assuming the form of a 2-dimensional sphere:
m = graviton mass = 6.95 ×
kg
R = Earth’s radius = 6371 km
Assuming the wave is expanding at the speed of 2.93 × m/s, it has a significant energy density at the Earth’s radius. However, as long as the wave is expanding (tunnelling), with low coupling strength and fast transition virtually none of this energy should be locally absorbed (this is simply a transient disturbance of space, where matter in this space is only temporarily displaced).
Cumulative expansion of the radius in the last 4 billion years is probably not larger than about 66 km. This would be the equivalent of 6 hollow global layers of 11 km in average thickness each. However, such global layers may be unlikely (unless global discontinuities actually represent such layers). They are probably tubular, and, instead of being hollow, may be mostly filled with water.
Since major extinctions, major impacts and major volcanism are all correlated with discontinuities in the time-space correlation, it seems that discontinuities indeed could represent the hollowed out regions. In that context, it is interesting that the 100 km discontinuity represents the beginning of a low velocity zone that can be interpreted as globally present partial melting[
275]. According to the hypothesis here where this discontinuity has been associated with the current extinction, this discontinuity should not be globally hollow at this point but it should be hollowed out sometime in near future. The heated up material at this depth goes in favour of the hypothesis and could then represent the material that will be expelled to surface.
In any case, the evidence from other studies does not go in favour of significant expansion of Earth. Thus, the results of the analysis should rather be interpreted as evidence of large scale genetic-like coding and planetary neurogenesis.
Correlation with the human cerebral cortex/neocortex
Qualitative similarity exists between the hypothesized Earth’s neocortex layers and neocortex layers in mammals. However, the best fit suggests that the layer I may not [yet?] be developed in Earth.
Table 40 shows the comparison between the Earth’s mantle and the human brain, using normalized values, where values for Earth have been shifted by one layer up (better fit). The values here have been normalized without including the layer I, except for values in parentheses present in case of humans, which represent normalized values with layer I included.
Note that thickness of neocortex layers (even if normalized) can somewhat differ between different lobes of the neocortex. This could be correlated with depth variation in certain discontinuities within Earth. Deviation from the sample mean in the thickness of layers in humans used in
Table 40 is ±10-
m[
317] , which translates to about ±3-10 km in case of Earth. Deviation between different lobes can be higher.
Since the upper layers of the neocortex appear to be exclusive to mammals[
318], Earth’s neocortex profile seems to be mammalian-like. At this point, it looks more similar to the neocortex of primates than to that of the cetaceans (note that cetaceans have a thicker layer I, and lack layer IV[
319]), and this is unlikely to change much with further development. Qualitatively, according to
Table 40, Earth’s layers are very similar to human layers. The normalized thickness of the layer III with layer I included in normalization seems to be almost equal between the two, even quantitatively, and the relations between layers are roughly equal - e.g., in both cases, layer VI is significantly larger than layers II and IV, while the layer II is only slightly larger than the layer IV. Sorting layers by thickness then yields the same result in both cases: III, V, VI, II, IV, I. Is this correlation between Earth and the dominant species on its surface surprising? In the context of neurogenesis, probably not, if humanoid species have a crucial role in the functioning of the Earth’s neocortex. In any case, it seems humans are more entangled with Earth (and probably other bodies in the Solar System) than conventionally assumed.
Comparing thicknesses of layers II-VI through progressive brain evolution (mouse-rat-human) with that of Earth reveals interesting trends, as shown in
Table 41.
Of course, humans did not evolve from rats or mice, rather from a common ancestor, however, it is probably safe to assume that a larger brain (neocortex) is a progressively more evolved brain (neocortex) in this case. Not all parts of the brain, however, evolve progressively - one layer of the neocortex may increase thickness at the expense of the other.
However, this is a comparison between different orders of life, and with a very limited dataset - inappropriate for derivation of strong conclusions. And what order should Earth belong to? Obviously, it cannot be classified into any order based on conventional understanding of life. However, in the context of CR, Earth can be a living being and, due to self-similarity of universes (scales), one could argue that it does belong to a relative large scale equivalent of the primate order, or the order of primate brains.
Comparing layers between different species within different orders in a larger dataset[
320], some trends, potentially relevant here, can be extrapolated. Within primates, layer I tends to grow proportionally to the increase in the size of the neocortex, in both absolute and normalized values. Layers II and III combined tend to grow, from rodents to carnivores to primates, in absolute and normalized values. Layers IV and V show the inverse tendency, being smaller in primates, in normalized values. Layer VI also tends to be somewhat smaller. From this one can conclude that, with progressive evolution, or, evolution of intelligence, upper layers tend to enlarge at the expense of deeper layers.
This suggests that Earth’s neocortex is equivalent to a neocortex of a primate that is a bit more progressively evolved than human’s (cumulative normalized thickness of layers IV-VI is somewhat smaller in Earth, while the thickness of layers II-III is somewhat larger). In that case, it is possible that human neocortex is evolving towards an Earth-like neocortex (in neutral subspecies it may be more Earth-like already[
321]). This neocortex symmetry may be a requirement for certain species to represent neurons or neural proteins associated with the intelligence of the host.
Based on trends within primates, Earth’s layer I should probably be ≥66 km, in which case the surface discontinuity could represent the upper boundary of that layer (its thickness being about 100 km in that case). However, this is probably unlikely - one reason being the exposure to space weather/impacts, some protective envelope should exist. Difference between human’s and Earth’s cumulative thickness of layers II-III and IV-VI is very small (it may even be attributed to standard deviation), suggesting that the difference in normalized thickness of the layer I should be minimal as well (note that the cumulative normalized thickness of layers I-III is roughly equal between a human, chimp and gorilla[
320]). Thus, the thickness of the Earth’s layer I should probably be roughly equal to 66.75 km, or ∼67 km, which is then the lithospheric layer designated as layer B in
Figure 28. The discontinuity that represents the upper boundary should then be at the average depth of 102 - 67 = 35 km. A very interesting result, as it is equal to the average depth of the Moho discontinuity.
The thickness of Earth’s layer I was obtained with:
where
is the average layer I thickness in humans (
m[
317]),
t is the total thickness of layers I-VI in humans (
m[
317]),
is the total thickness of layers II-VI in Earth’s mantle (678 km), obtained from
Table 39.
Considering that the Moho is in some places beneath the oceans at a significantly shallower depth, layer I, or at least its upper boundary, may not be so inaccessible for an technologically advanced civilization.
Vice versa is valid as well (surface may not be so inaccessible for life inhabiting layer I), and may explain some UFO/UAP phenomena (note that some of the UAP’s were observed diving into the ocean[
322], and, allegedly, coming out of the ocean far away from the coast[
323]). This raises a possibility that layer I is at least partially formed and habitable (at least for some species) already. The ongoing events as part of the hypothesized current neurogenesis event may even result in an increase in UAP encounters.
Note that the existence of this layer suggests that the current event may not be the final one, the final one would be the one correlated with the Moho discontinuity and should occur some 43 million years in the future. Additional 23 million years would correlate with the surface discontinuity. Interestingly, 43 My is the length of the Paleogene, while 23 My has passed since the end of the Paleogene. This suggests that the ∼100 km discontinuity should not be associated with the current extinction, rather with the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction 66 Mya, in which case the current event correlates with the surface discontinuity and should probably be final. This interpretation further suggests that the layer I may have been completely formed 23 Mya. However, in this interpretation, correlation between other mass extinctions and mantle discontinuities is lost. Is there a solution that satisfies both interpretations? Yes. Note that the distance from the discontinuity at ∼100 km to the surface discontinuity is equal to the distance to the ∼200 km discontinuity. In other words, both distances cover periods of equal length (66 My). Now suppose that two large scale gravitons are involved in the oscillation between energy levels (discontinuities) correlated with transformational events (which include mass extinctions). One may associate one graviton with the first interpretation, the other with the second. A single temporal period may be correlated with two different spatial periods (layers) of equal length (thickness). In this case, the temporal period of the last 66 My is correlated with both, transition from the ∼200 km discontinuity to the ∼100 km discontinuity, and the transition from the ∼100 km discontinuity to the surface discontinuity. I believe this superposition is the proper interpretation. Does this imply that the current event is final after all? Not necessarily. It is possible that the final event will occur in the future, after additional 66 My. However, if there are 6 neocortex layers and the number of major mass extinctions should be equal to this number, another major event is unlikely.
Earth’s neocortex probably represents a superposition of 2 or 3 neocortices -
male and
female (correlated with the 2e state) of the same species and possibly an additional of a different species (see chapter
13.1.2. Standard model). In one interpretation, the superposition is not perfect (it cannot be absolutely perfect) and in one (e.g., female) the layering is shifted so its layer II is aligned with the layer I of the other. Thus, the total number of layers could be 7. This kind of superposition suggests that layers II-VI should be different than they are in the individual non-superposed neocortices, however, layers I and VII should be relatively unaffected. This then explains why the normalized thickness of Earth’s layer I is equal to the normalized thickness of layer I in humans, and predicts that the normalized thickness of layer VII should be equal to the normalized thickness of layer VI in humans. Indeed, in the original interpretation, the thickness of the layer VI (now interpreted as layer VII) was calculated to be 140.7 km. When normalized in proportion to other values in
Table 40, the value is 0.208, very close to the normalized value of 0.201 of layer VI in humans. Note that the normalized thickness of layer I is the same between humans, chimpanzees and gorillas, but the layer VI is somewhat larger in chimps and gorillas[
320]. Earth’s neocortex could thus represent a relative equivalent of the superposition of human and chimp (or gorilla) neocortices. Given the increasing equality between males and females and decreasing fertility in humans, humans could be indeed evolving to a some kind of superposition of male and female species. Given the growing aversion (correlated with decreasing fertility) between human males and human females, this male/female superposition might indeed be a superposition of different species. The interpretation of Earth’s neocortex profile that would give the best fit is probably not the superposition of equivalents of human and chimp/gorilla neocortices, rather a superposition of a chimp (or gorilla) neocortex and a neocortex that represents a superposition of human and canine (or feline) neocortices. Symbiotic relationship between humans and dogs/cats is probably a precursor to this convergence.
Alternative Neocortex Thickness
While it makes sense that the neocortex forms a dominating part of Earth, and although the major extinctions show good correlation with the proposed layering, it is possible that this correlation is not a correlation with neocortex layers, rather a correlation between layers of some bigger structure [of the brain]. Still, neocortex layering could be the same in relative proportions (due to conservation of self-similarity), it just may be smaller in absolute values, in which case the proportions may be similar to the proportions in mammalian brains. This gives, for a thickness of a human neocortex of 2622 µm[
317], a total neocortex thickness in Earth:
= thickness of the neocortex in humans = 2622 µm
= radius of the human head = 57 / 2 cm
= Earth’s radius = 6371 km
The above calculation uses the ratio between a human neocortex and a human head. However, it may be more appropriate to use the ratio between a human neocrtex and a whole human body. In that case the Earth’s neocortex, for an global average human body mass of 62 kg[
324], thickness becomes:
= human body mass = 62 kg
= density of human body mass (average between maximum inhalation and exhalation of air) =
An interesting value, equal to the previously estimated value for the thickness of layer I (using a density of human body mass of
- which is the density with maximum inhalation of air[
325], one obtains an even better agreement, 66.77 km). Again, likely location of this would be below the Moho.
Note that, if the Earth’s neocortex is analogous to the human neocortex, there should be no air in it, only oceans, there should be plenty of oxygen, however. Neural cells should not contain air either, rather a cytoplasm equivalent in the form of slightly alkaline freshwater with dissolved oxygen, delivered through magma channels. Life should exist in the salty oceans of the Earth’s neocortex, but also in neural cells. Intelligent beings associated with UFO/UAP phenomena may represent large scale proteins or microbes that usually live in these oceans and cells. The question is then how did they get to surface and is that normal for Earth-like lifeforms? Proteins/microbes living in human brains do actually have a way to get out. The cerebrospinal fluid (the small scale salty ocean equivalent), or CSF, can sometimes leak through the microscopic breaks in the barrier between the brain and the roof of the sinuses, and then drain out through the nasal cavity (I have experienced this myself multiple times). Similarly, it can also leak through the ears, but that is less likely. Obviously, the Earth doesn’t need and doesn’t have a nose or ears, certainly not in the form present in standard mammals, however, some cavities are likely to be present and barriers could be broken (note that these barriers are the thinnest beneath the ocean). Constant CSF leaks, however, are not normal, but barriers are likely to be absent during neurogenesis events. Thus, as noted before, the presence of these beings on Earth’s surface may indicate an ongoing neurogenesis event. This may not be limited to UFO/UAP phenomena, new species of fish or other oceanic lifeforms could be emerging from the depths.
Instead of asking ourselves, why are there no oceans (or life) on the surface of other terrestrial planets, we probably should be asking ourselves why is there [still] an ocean on Earth’s surface, instead of being somewhere in the deep? Indeed, as the ocean is a large scale equivalent of CSF, it may be sucked into the neocortex during the ongoing neurogenesis event. CSF on epidermis is only normal during embryogenesis.
Possible Evidence of Occupation of Core Energy Levels by Large Scale Gravitons
A recent study has found a low-velocity equatorial torus in the Earth’s outer core[
326], near the core-mantle boundary (CMB), probably correlated with Earth’s geodynamo. Similar has been detected at the inner-outer core boundary. This could be interpreted as evidence for the [recent, current?] occupation of energy levels by large scale gravitons. The gravitons are hypothesized to have a torus shape, and if polarized, the torus should be more ring-like than spherical. The detected shape is thus exactly as predicted for a place where the magnetic field is generated. Is polarization of polarized gravitons intrinsic, or a result of the effect of induced angular momenta of nearby ionized matter? In any case, a rotational body should have different sources of a magnetic field. One field is directly associated with the graviton, the other is induced by Coriolis force. A decreasing strength of the Earth’s magnetic field, with no significant decrease in body rotation, may then indicate a change in graviton energy level and thus its spin momentum. If graviton is jumping to an energy level where matter will have a larger effect on its own angular momentum than
vice versa, magnetic field strength may be significantly lowered. Note that the field associated with the graviton can, depending on its momentum, instead of strengthening, oppose the field generated by Coriolis force, which can be interpreted as magnetic field collapse.
Indeed, such state may be the case on Mars, which has a very similar rotation period to Earth. Therefore, the magnetic field of Mars could be relatively easily restored by the change of graviton energy level - enabling adult neurogenesis events on the surface.
16.4.5. Forms of Migration, Correlation with Religions
Although predicted as such, migration of life (at least one that represents proteins, not cells) from the surface to mantle layers does not necessarily imply transfer of living individuals (depending on transfer conditions, it may not even be possible to survive it). DNA may be all that’s required, but it is even possible that only souls (gravitons of smaller scale) are transferred - in which case, no physical tunnels are required, souls can simply tunnel through matter to a lower
orbital radius, corresponding to a mantle layer. This interpretation does not require for Earth’s interior to have habitable zones, making it compatible with conventional models of Earth’s interior. Note that, assuming polarized souls represent polarized potential of Earth’s space, it makes sense for these souls to decrease the orbital radius with the decline of the magnetic field. This is an interesting interpretation in the context of Christian religion - if the heaven is up, the hell is down and, according to conventional models of Earth’s interior, it’s very hot down there, making it justifiable to claim that these souls will be burning in hell (even if not for eternity). A naked soul of the assumed scale should not be sensitive to the temperature of standard atoms, however, with no other living things, the soul is likely to couple with an atom [body] or an localized organization of atoms. It is still questionable whether a soul coupled to an atom can consciously feel the [changes in the] kinetic energy of the atom. It probably cannot - as atoms are extremely introverted beings, however, probability of dreaming hell could be proportional to the external temperature (as it has been shown that dreams can highly correlate with the state of external environment[
327]). Old Egyptian religion is also interesting in this context. By that religion, souls of the deceased go to the Underworld, however, this Underworld is similar to the surface world and would be compatible with the hypothesis of habitable zones in the Earth’s mantle. In that interpretation, no physical tunnels are necessary, only deep habitability and existence of complex life (or possibility for its evolution/development) to which the souls could couple. Egyptians did not believe in hell (at least not as it is usually depicted in Christian religion), rather they believed that souls deserving to be punished are forbidden to incarnate into intellectual forms of life in the Underworld.
Whatever the truth is, I can already see even the most devoted Christians eventually converting to the Egyptian religion... Interestingly, the underworld is a common theme across different religions in the world, even when they have evolved separately. In is also interesting, that, according to the Old Testament, all human souls go to Sheol (a place of darkness, hell), regardless of the moral choices in life. This is consistent with the planetary neurogenesis assuming it is similar with standard embryonic neurogenesis - all neural cells go to populate the interior, the only difference is in timing and the layer of destination. Here, souls are discriminated, with more polarized souls occupying deeper layers (that is, at least, my interpretation based on the base correlation of soul polarization with electro-magnetism). This polarization can be correlated with morality - strongly polarized people are usually those who do the most damage to the planet and life on it. Thus, this soul distribution mechanism (and the correlated cataclysmic events) can also be correlated with the Judgement Day. Note that Earth’s magnetic field was stronger in the past. This goes in favour of the hypothesis as population of layers should proceed roughly from the bottom to the top. Interestingly, by the Greek mythology, the migration to the Underworld (Hades) on the Judgement Day includes a post-mortem spatial separation of souls. Also interesting are the predictions of the prophet Muhammad, among which is the prediction of accelerated time in the Judgement Day[
328]:
"The Hour (Last Day) will not be established until (religious) knowledge will be taken away (by the death of religious learned men), earthquakes will be very frequent, time will pass quickly, afflictions will appear, murders will increase and money will overflow amongst you."
This can then be correlated with the hypothesized accelerated evolution and temporary increase in decay rates of elements.
Most striking correlation with ancient sources is, however, the correlation with old Vedic teachings, where the, here hypothesized, cycling periods of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd order can all be well correlated with the salient time periods in the Vedic cosmology[
195]. The 1st order period is correlated with the Kalpa aeon. It is claimed that at the end of Kalpa the world is annihilated by fire. The annihilation at the end of a 1st order cycle is hypothesized here as well - most bodies of the system probably reduce to dust and asteroids. And this obviously involves high temperatures, as the evidence shows that rocks are altered/heated enough to recrystallize and reset the radiometric clocks.
However, migration to Antarctica probably is a migration of living individuals. Some may stay behind but these will probably migrate eventually even if not as living individuals (I have hypothesized elsewhere that every population of species contains polarized and non-polarized individuals and only one group of these is affected by strong evolution[
329], similar is the effect regarding migration). This then can explain the unexpected negatively-skewed frequency distribution of body size for extinct dinosaur species[
330] (although other explanations are possible). Further going in favour of the hypothesis is the fact that distribution was distinctly negatively-skewed only towards the end of major geological periods, when migration is supposed to occur. This suggests that the largest dinosaur species did not migrate, or that non-polarized individuals dominate in largest species - which I find more likely.
In case of the current strong evolution event, non-polarized individuals likely dominate in largest whales, while in humans non-polarized individuals still represent a minority. The fossil record past the current event is thus unlikely to contain humans.
But is human DNA destined for migration, or is it an uninvited guest? I assume if land animals are lured to Antarctica, then at least some of them should be neural progenitors, otherwise, all that matters is probably life in the ocean (which, however, can contain DNA of land animals, even if not in large amounts).
Considering high correlation of the hypothesized events of planetary neurogenesis with those of Judgement Day predictions of certain prophets, is there something else correlated with religion that could be useful to consider in this context? In Greek mythology, the "Erebus" usually refers to the Underworld, or the region through which souls pass to reach Hades (Underworld). Interesting then is the name of the volcano (and the volcano itself) that is active on Antarctica’s Ross Island - Mount Erebus, which sits on the Erebus hotspot. Could this hotspot be correlated with migration? Well, if it is indeed a hotspot (evidence exists for such interpretation) this implies deep roots, so it seems like a good candidate for the entry point. Studies are consistent with a plume of 250-300 km in diameter extending to about 200 km depth, when it narrows and extends further down to at least ∼400 km[
331], possibly up[
332] to 1000 km[
333]. Such structuring is very interesting in this context. Apparently the plume narrows exactly when it reaches the hypothesized 2nd habitable discontinuity (correlated with the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction). This suggests that, most migrating mass will be distributed over the two topmost discontinuities. Correlation with the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction is even more remarkable considering that the Antarctic plate has apparently remained stationary since the late Cretaceous. This suggests that perhaps the same tunnel has been used for mass transfer in the previous major mass extinction.
Should one then interpret the naming of Erebus as coincidence, or a meaningful synchronicity event, correlated with subconscious influence on the decision?
Note, however, that the Mount Erebus is about 3800 m in height. This should not represent an insurmountable problem for the migration of humans into lava tubes (at least once the Erebus empties), but, as noted before, it does represent a problem for oceanic water (CSF), which is supposed to enter the tubes eventually. Thus, either the walls of the volcano will be melted, or this is not the entry point (at least not for the water), or there is no transfer of matter to the interior after all. It is possible that this is solely the exit point that may be further energized with an asteroid impact (possibly on the antipodal location). On the other hand, asteroid impact on the same location could destroy the walls of Erebus and depress the land, making the inbound transfer more feasible.
Interestingly, in Zoroastrian tradition, after the final battle of good and bad (which could be interpreted as Judgement Day) the figure known as Saoshyant ("the Saviour") would bring about a resurrection of the dead, after which the wicked will pass through a river of molten metal burning away all their sins[
334]. The metal here comes from hills and mountains, melted by the spell casting Airyaman god and the Fire-god[
335]. Should this be interpreted as the souls of the dead passing through the Erebus after the hills and mountains have been melted (including the walls of the volcano) by the asteroid ("spell") impact? Should the Fire-god be interpreted as the Sun - having a role in this? Interestingly, the Zoroastrian texts also explicitly speak of a mysterious demon who infests the sky during the "mixed state", falls on to the earth, and is finally burnt up in the flood of molten metal in which the human race has been purged. This would suggest that the asteroid ("demon") falls after the volcanism, however, the order of events in these texts sometimes depends on the source so it should be questionable. High relativity in causality ("mixed state" above could be interpreted as superposition correlated with this relativity) and multiple impacts during strong evolution are, however, possible, and even probable, as suggested by the planetary neurogenesis hypothesis. The texts also say that this
demon will rush in through a hole [leading to Hell] that will be sealed afterwards by the molten metal. All in all, with the proper interpretation of gods and demons, heaven and hell, this sounds pretty much like the description of a planetary neurogenesis event.
More correlation can be found. In example, the Hebrew Book of Enoch (not included in the Bible), speaks of a patriarch Enoch who was taken on a journey with angels. The angels showed him a mountain with 4 recesses, 3 dark (housing evil souls) and 1 light (housing just souls) where the dead were waiting for judgement. The 3 dark recesses here could be interpreted as entrances to the 3 layers (discontinuities) of the mantle, while the light one could be interpreted as a tunnel leading back to surface. The book later says that the good will eat from the Tree of Life and regain the earthly body[
334]. One could now interpret the angels as some beings who have a crucial role in a planetary neurogenesis event. They probably could be correlated with UFO/UAP phenomena, and, if so, these phenomena could be on the increase as we approach the "Judgement day". The Tree of Life probably should be interpreted as DNA. Now, in my theories, coupling of souls and bodies is highly correlated with DNA. To me, thus, this suggests that the "angels" will regrow the bodies of certain souls using DNA from the original bodies and the souls that were previously coupled to these bodies will now couple with the cloned bodies. Note that this can then be interpreted as resurrection. It is, in any case, the only scientifically plausible interpretation of Christian resurrection.
How to explain this high correlation of multiple religions with the hypothesis of planetary neurogenesis (and some other phenomena described here)? One interpretation is that the original prophets/shamans on whose teachings the religions are based could see the effective future/past in their visions and/or could expand their knowledge about the universe through these visions. In another interpretation, they were influenced (consciously or subconsciously) by some 3rd party possessing this knowledge. Both interpretations could be true.
In any case, I consider synchronicity (which I have, through my research and experience, found highly correlated with subconsciousness) to have a major role. Consider for example the Egyptian idea of the Underworld, which can be correlated with their ignorance regarding the Earth and the universe. The Egyptians associated the star Sirius (
Sopdet) with the goddess Isis. They interpreted the rising of the Sirius above the horizon as the rising of the goddess from the
duat (underworld). On her journey across the sky, the goddess was assumed to "die" in the western evening sky only to be "reborn" later in the eastern morning sky[
336]. Not knowing the true nature of starts, the actual distances to stars and the size of the Earth, they’ve assumed that the goddess was, after "death" travelling underground in some form and that this underworld is habitable for that form. They, obviously, did not theorize planetary neurogenesis here, however, are the obvious correlations like this one meaningless coincidences, or should they rather be interpreted as meaningful synchronicity? I believe in the latter. All phenomena can be correlated with some kind of precursors. I interpret these ideas as precursors to the planetary neurogenesis theory. The Egyptian precursor even suggests that it is possible to escape from the underworld, at least for
gods (which, again, may be correlated with UAP phenomena).
In any case, it is possible that, by studying the original teachings, one could learn more about the events. However, all these teachings have been, traditionally, corrupted over the years by polarized interests, making it hard to discern what could be trusted.
16.4.6. Evidence in Time Compression
If planetary neurogenesis is happening on Earth, it was likely happening on Mars and Venus too. Time, however, flows differently for animals of different size (which should be correlated with the scale of the coupled soul/graviton). The rate of evolution on Mars should then be different from the rate of evolution on Earth - it should be faster.
Applying Kleiber’s law, 4.54 billion years of evolution on Earth would, on Mars, last:
= Mars’ mass = 0.642 × kg
= Earth’s mass = 5.972 × kg
= 4.54±0.05 × years
Assuming Mars was formed roughly at the same time as Earth, present time on Earth corresponds to about 3.69 billion years ago on Mars (4.54 - 0.85 = 3.69).
This is a very interesting result as studies show that Martian climate shifted from habitable to uninhabitable - when its atmosphere was lost and liquid water disappeared from surface, roughly 3.6 billion years ago[
337] (src[
338]). In an even more recent study it was found that this liquid water was exposed to the atmosphere (rather than being covered with ice), up to 3.7 billion years ago - when the studied lakebeds dried[
339].
This suggests that the current major extinction on Earth may indeed be the final major extinction of the planetary embryogenesis (neurogenesis), after which the Earth’s surface will become permanently uninhabitable (although periodic and possibly spatially limited pulses of habitability cannot be excluded, as hypothesized pulses of adult neurogenesis).
The same equation gives evolution period of 3.9 billion years for Venus, suggesting Venus lost habitability some 640 million years ago. Again interesting, as studies[
340] show that Venus did lose habitability roughly 700 million years ago[
341].
It is a common assumption that all planets in the Solar System have been formed at the same time (this is also the case with my theory of inflation of the system), and calculations above certainly can be interpreted as a confirmation of that assumption. However, the term is relative and a deviation on the order of millions or tens of millions of years is possible.
Early habitability of Mercury cannot be ruled out either. For Mercury, the equation gives a period of 517 My, with its end corresponding to about 4.0 billion years ago. Interestingly, this is also the estimated age of the most heavily cratered terrain on Mercury and the end of the Pre-Tolstojan period[
342].
What about the Moon? The equation, for the Moon’s mass of 0.07346 ×
kg[
343], gives a period of 167.7 My. Again, very interesting, as recent studies provide evidence[
344] that the Moon formed about 4.51±0.01 Gya[
345] and had a great resurfacing event about 4.35 Gya. This gives a period between the two of 160±10 My, in agreement with the calculated value. Using the obtained age for the mare basalt formation of 4336±32 Mya by Borg et al[
346] instead of 4.35 Gya, the period of time between the two is 174±42 My. The average between these two is 167 My, roughly equal to the calculated value. Furthermore, assuming a period of time between the Earth’s and Moon’s formation is equal to the hypothesized 2nd order cycling period of the Solar System, with the 2nd order period equal to 25.92 My and Moon’s formation at 4.51±0.01 Gya, one obtains Earth’s age of 4.536±0.01 Gy, which is within the uncertainty of estimated Earth’s age.
The rate of evolution here should be proportional to both, biological and geological cycling. Thus, these should have proceeded at faster rates on early Mars. In example, the average rate of production of new crust during the Mars’ habitable period should have been about 5.33 times faster than on Earth. Magnetic reversals, on the other hand, are likely correlated with the Sun’s activity and Mars, being farther from the Sun, should be less sensitive to this activity. Magnetic dipole reversals on Mars during the crust formation should then be less frequent (proportionally to distance difference) than on Earth during the habitable period.
Assuming sensitivity inversely proportional to the square of distance (being dependent either on Sun’s gravity, electro-magnetic field strength, or, most likely, solar wind density[
347]), with horizontal scale length of order 10 km on Earth for the width of features magnetized in normal, or reversed, polarity, the horizontal scale length on Mars should be:
= horizontal scale length on Earth = 10 km
= Mars’ distance from the Sun = 227.9 × m
= 149.6 × m
Thus, on Mars, magnetic crust anomalies should be 10 times wider than on Earth, and this is exactly what has been measured[
348]. Given this and other evidence, plate tectonics had likely occurred on habitable Mars, only the number of plates, compared to Earth, may have been different. Recent studies also show that Venus must have had tectonics as well[
349].
Interestingly, observations show stronger magnetism near the Mars’ south pole[
350]. This could indicate that the magnetic field was confined to this area during the late stages of habitability on Mars (which should not be surprising if life is guided to the south pole, as hypothesized for the end of neurogenesis events). It could also be interpreted as younger re-magnetization (e.g., during an adult neurogenesis event). Both interpretations can be true. In fact, discrepancy between most recent measurements of Mars’ core radius (1650±20 km[
351]) and previous estimates (1810 - 1860 km[
352]) suggests a recent change in energy level of a major graviton, possibly causing core differentiation into a solid inner core and liquid outer core. This should then result in the creation of a magnetic field on surface (possibly also recreation of a stronger Martian moon) and may thus be interpreted as a signal of an upcoming adult neurogenesis event on Mars.
If lifecycles are faster on a smaller body, the sizes of organisms are likely to be smaller as well. If the size is roughly proportional to the host body mass, organisms inhabiting early Mars should have been about 10 times smaller than they are on Earth (although exact difference may depend on species and its environmental constraints). Indeed, potential evidence exists[
353] for 10 times smaller microbes on Mars[
354]. For complex lifeforms, however, other factors should be taken into account. Common limiting factor for the size of species on Earth is the spatial extent of the habitat. Island dwellers, for example, are usually much smaller than their mainland relatives[
355]. Thus, considering surface area and assuming similar land/water ratio, compared to Earth, complex species on Mars should be about 3.5 times smaller on average.
It should be noted that the factor used in Kleiber’s law is to some extent dependent on the higher taxonomic ranks (e.g., order/class and up), with the factor 3/4 having the most significance in mammals. If this factor is valid for terrestrial planets, it could be correlated with the dominance of mammals on planetary surfaces during the last stage of neurogenesis. Note also that a significant difference in allometric scaling exists between organs, where the factor 3/4 could be interpreted as a superposition of factors for the brain (0.7) and the kidney (0.85), being closer to the brain. Dominance of the brain in planets should not be surprising, given their lack of motility and extroverted expression. In short, terrestrial planets are the brains or brain-like organisms. From the perspective of the Solar System, however, they could be interpreted as brain layers (where a single planet may represent multiple layers, depending on the number of coupled large scale gravitons). It may be something difficult for us to comprehend - due to vast difference in timescales, but the intelligence of these organisms probably should not be underestimated by anyone self-considered wise, as their genesis should obviously favour the neocortex development (at the expense of extroversion). This can be inferred from a different perspective as well - if their neural proteins are as complex as humans, how complex is their own intelligence? They might seem powerless and unreactive to human provocation, but this is just an illusion that’s probably very effectively dispersed during strong evolution events when their souls destabilize and intervals of time are compressed.
16.4.7. Some additional predictions of neurogenesis
If the cultivation of complex life on planet’s surface is equivalent to the cultivation of neural cells during embryonic neurogenesis in mammals, the events hypothesized above are not the only upcoming events that can be predicted.
Obviously, cultivation of cells/proteins must be limited. The most effective (or most energy efficient) way to limit population growth is to substantially decrease its fertility. Recent studies show that fertility in humans is indeed decreasing, at an accelerating pace[
356]. But possible ways to limit population growth are diverse and probably will be diverse. Fertility decrease does not have to be correlated exclusively with physical health (inability to produce offspring), it can rather be effective, e.g., through subconscious effects on human psyche or mentality. Generally, limitation of population growth can be correlated with:
decrease in ability or will to produce offspring,
increase in types of reproduction inhibiting sexuality (e.g., homosexuality, bestiality, etc.) and increase in asexuality,
decrease of physical gender inequality or increase in physical attributes and behaviour decreasing sexual attraction between males and females,
increase in male-female mental incompatibility,
increase in socio-economic gender equality, reducing the need or will for partnerships,
increase in acceptable sterile alternatives (artificial, virtual) or substitutes for sexual intercourse,
increase in attraction and partnerships between younger (more fertile) and older (less fertile) male and female individuals,
domesticated animals and artificial intelligence increasingly filling the voids usually occupied by children or partners,
decrease in sexual compatibility (which can be strongly correlated with the above),
increase in diseases that can be correlated with a decrease in fertility (e.g., prostate cancer),
increase in deaths (e.g., through wars, natural disasters, diseases, ...), assuming limit has been exceeded and population needs to be reduced to sustainable levels,
etc.
Evidently, all of these are currently present, and most, if not all, are increasing in the society.
Of course, at least some of these effects can be attributed to humans (e.g., pollution may affect fertility directly), but even that should not be interpreted as absolutely non-coded or non-natural development.
Correlated with short-term interests, polarized humanity obviously does not want to limit population growth (contrary, it promotes unlimited growth), however, something, correlated with long-term interests, is obviously acting against it. I don’t see much free will here, I see two forces, one seeking domination and the other its regulation. This may be common for the process of neurogenesis, where, in a healthy one, regulation prevails, and this then can be interpreted as domestication or taming of cancer, as regular part of embryogenesis.
Accelerated evolution also likely includes accelerated ageing in some species or sub-species (in some, possibly reversed), cases of which are showing up in studies too[
357]. Our planet is obviously exhibiting self-regulation on many levels. This seems not to be limited to physical processes, but acts on mental ones as well - directly or indirectly. However, while regulation is a requirement for neurogenesis its presence does not imply neurogenesis. For example, it is probably not a coincidence that increasing pollution decreases fertility, which eventually decreases population, which in turn decreases pollution. This may have nothing to do with neurogenesis, rather simply survival of the planet. However, the presence of regulating [re]action on so many different levels may indicate something more complex.
16.4.8. Predictions Based on Past Major Mass Extinctions
If major mass extinction events are regular parts of neurogenesis events, they should be qualitatively, and even quantitatively in some aspects, very similar. Apart from the specific ocean pH value, another factor likely to be similar is the temperature, and/or changes in temperature. The global average temperature prior to all 5 major extinctions indeed seems to have been similar, about 22-23 ∘C (although uncertainties are not small). This was followed either by a drop or an increase of about 7 ∘C during the extinction, in all cases. In case of the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction, there was also an temporary excursion in between that decreased temperatures by 5-10 ∘C for months or even years (correlated with the asteroid impact). Since asteroid impacts have been probably involved in all major extinctions (although not as the primary cause), similar excursions have probably occurred in all of them, at least regionally.
Thus, a rise of about 7 ∘C of the global average, to about 22 ∘C, in the current event is probably in the pipeline. However, based on the analysis of past events, this could represent only a pre-extinction temperature (or a relative extinction-trigger temperature). Once that temperature is reached, either a drop or rise by additional 7 ∘C may be in the pipeline. What’s happening now may then be interpreted as priming for the extinction event. So when will 22 ∘C be reached? Extrapolating from current trends, about the year 2300. Again, however, this time interval could be compressed into the current century if the Earth joins the party.
Some might believe that humanity won’t allow for the temperature to rise by 7
∘C, but serious psycho-analyses of this same humanity clearly show that that belief is fantasy. Humanity is not seriously trying to reduce emissions, the plan is to overshoot the, so called, "targets", and reduce the temperature later by sucking
from the atmosphere by some large-scale efficient technology that is yet to be developed[
358].
Since the analysis of past extinctions suggests that the temperature should drop or increase by 7 ∘C once 22 ∘C is reached, perhaps such technology may indeed be developed and will lower the temperature back to 15 ∘C. However, the analysis also suggests that this drop should be coupled with the extinction. So perhaps the technology will be in the form of a nuclear weapon, which, according to the current trends, would not be surprising either. In any case, I think I would prefer an asteroid impact over a nuclear war.
The data, however, may be misleading. It is possible that the current temperature (15 ∘C), or the pre-industrial (14 ∘C) one should be understood as the pre-extinction temperature. Uncertainties exist for global average extinction temperatures as well. A rise of 7∘ C may not be necessary, perhaps a rise of 4 ∘C from pre-industrial temperatures would be enough, which could be reached by 2066, even according to conventional models (the RCP8.5 scenario) with natural feedbacks included.
16.4.9. Adult [Neuro]Genesis
I have hypothesized previously that changes in energy levels of large scale gravitons are correlated with major mass extinctions and evolution of life in between. If different species of life are evolved between these major extinctions, the large scale graviton associated with these is not oscillating between adjacent levels, it is rather increasing or decreasing energy level with each major extinction. Here, progressive evolution may be associated with increasing energy levels, regressive evolution with decreasing energy levels. But what if the graviton is oscillating between two levels? In that case, relatively the same species should be evolved over and over again. This is exactly what happens in adult [neuro]genesis events. Once the highest energy level is reached, evolution (development) of new species stops. Occasionally, the graviton drops to a lower level before it returns back up, which should then be correlated with re-evolution of certain species.
Note that death events represent collapses of graviton/body couplings. In this collapse, graviton changes vertical energy levels, not horizontal, so, assuming direct transition, there is no regressive evolution of body components. However, the collapse may at least in some cases include transition between horizontal energy levels as well, which then should include evolutionary regression to some degree.
Note also that, assuming decay rates of standard unstable elements are temporarily increased with energy level increases, and temporarily decreased with energy level decreases, oscillation would imply no net effect on decay rates on larger timescales.
Adult [neuro]genesis events are probably generally spatially and temporally limited. Evidence exists for occasional limited pulses[
359] of habitability[
360] on Mars. Note that a relatively recent adult neurogenesis event on Mars also has the potential to explain some unexplained phenomena on Earth (e.g., some UFO/UAP sightings/interactions, greatest pyramids in Egypt). Some of the intelligent lifeforms re-evolved in the last Mars’ adult neurogenesis event may have, with the neurogenesis terminating extinction event, fled to Earth. Here they may have built the greatest pyramids (possibly even original Sphinx) as shelter, possibly using some kind of 3D printing machinery. They may have somewhat evolved since and probably still inhabit Earth (and/or Moon?), somewhere in the deep. As I have hypothesized elsewhere,
modern Egyptian religion was probably formed once Egyptians encountered these structures. They associated them with gods, considered them sacred (this is one of the reasons why there are no original inscriptions in greatest pyramids) and started imitating them - to please the gods and to secure passage to the
Underworld.
In fact, life matching or surpassing human intelligence may evolve prior to each major mass extinction (with temporary effective time compression solving flaws in the Silurian hypothesis), it just doesn’t last long on surface. It thrives somewhere, in some form, deeper underground (in some kind of underworld).
16.4.10. Problems, Solutions, and Alternatives
While partitioning of the Earth’s mantle, its correlation with major extinctions and cultivation/evolution of cells (life) on the surface do represent a strong signature of a large scale equivalent of neurogenesis, how plausible it is that migration of life to mantle does indeed happen?
It is possible that it does not - the Earth might simply represent a large scale of a [precursor] lifeform that is yet to evolve neurogenesis.
The Earth may be a large scale proto-organism which is at this stage not much more than a catalyst providing favourable conditions for the evolution of a coherent large scale lifeform. Sea walnuts (
Mnemiopsis leidyi), for example, could, in that context, represent future cells of a large scale multicellular organism, or some multicellular part of that organism. Observed common fusion of individual sea walnuts[
361] can be interpreted as a precursor event signalling that evolution is heading in such direction. However, such interpretation is biased towards our experience of multicellular life. Multicellularity on large scale may be similar to the multicellularity on our scale, but to what degree? Should one expect for cells to be physically
glued close together in a large scale multicellular interpretation of life? Multicellular entanglement and intercellular communication on this scale may be less dependable on distance. After all, as shown previously, inner and outer planets can be entangled in stable states across large distances in space/time (although with scaled metric, these distances may not be as large). Now,
cells like
Mnemiopsis leidyi are much smaller than planets but they are also much larger than standard cells forming our bodies. Thus, requirements for multicellularity of life could be significantly relaxed relative to the scale of cells forming our bodies.
Perhaps life evolving on the surface will, on its own, eventually start digging deeper and deeper into the Earth’s mantle (as surface habitability decreases) - in the process changing the environment and making it more suitable for complex life (the process may be somewhat similar to how the standard cell acquired bacteria which evolved into mitochondria).
Note however that this as well could represent the coded migration event of the neurogenesis.
Thus, even if the Earth’s mantle doesn’t have habitable regions at the moment, it’s probably evolving in that direction.
But why then would mantle discontinuities correlate with major extinctions? This could be interpreted as a precursor of formation of habitable layers, but is it possible that the habitable regions have been created already?
To answer that question one first needs to determine what are the requirements for complex life to survive in the mantle. These appear to be: water, energy and suitable pressure (temperature) and density. The availability of water and energy probably should not be questionable (these are already predicted/confirmed with conventional theories/interpretations). The only issue then is the suitable pressure and density, enabling liquid water among other things.
I assume the layers are created and sustained with oscillation of a large scale graviton (if not permanent presence of multiple gravitons at different energy levels). Presence of a graviton will result in concentration of matter (real mass) about that maximum. Once the graviton changes energy level (through spin reversals and temporary scale collapse) the accumulated matter will remain stable for some time (millions of years or more) but periodic presence of a graviton can ensure long-term stability. This mechanism (oscillation between energy levels) can thus create alternating gradients of gravity where gravity is cancelled at some point between two energy levels, enabling thus the establishment of pressures/temperatures suitable for complex life.
Is it possible that such places exist in Earth’s mantle?
It certainly is - even without involving large scale gravitons, density can have multiple maxima, but there are constraints on size and shape (a habitable layer may be represented by a relatively hollow tube in the shape of a torus, or it could be quantized into multiple spherical cells).
Interior of the Earth has not been observed directly to significant depth so one must rely on indirect observations. The mass (average density) of Earth has been determined from laws of gravity and planetary motion, and is known to very good precision. Moment of inertia of Earth has revealed strong concentration of mass about the centre. Earth’s core thus must be, on average, more dense than the mantle.
Astronomy (tidal interactions) also revealed that Earth’s mantle must be, on average, rigid (solid).
Everything else known about the interior (including core size) comes from seismology, which is limited and very prone to interpretation bias.
Interpretation is possible once the paths and velocities of seismic waves are determined. The velocity is generally proportional to pressure (through coefficient of stiffness and shear modulus, which also depends on temperature) and inversely proportional to density. To determine pressure one needs to know the density. Obviously, the same velocity can theoretically produce infinite combinations of pressure and density.
Constraints can come from wave dispersion analysis (for shallow depths) and from modes of free oscillation[
362] (which is especially valuable, as it can give averaged density in
absolute value - independent of elasticity).
The conventional interpretation of the interior is usually based on 1-dimensional (density dependent solely on radius) models (e.g., PREM), where density in the mantle generally gradually increases with depth. Pressure may then be determined from calculated density.
Although 3D models exist as well, due to limited resolution[
363] (averaged values) - which decreases with depth, density can oscillate/deviate from the prediction (model) and some areas in the mantle, especially at depths with high lateral heterogeneity, could have much different pressure and density (and composition) than assumed. Due to poor resolution of free oscillation and absence of earthquakes (ray-paths) throughout most of the mantle, and multiplicity of assumptions in interpretation, existence of low-pressure habitable zones cannot be ruled out.
It is also possible that habitable zones are hidden from view - e.g., in regions (e.g., tubes, spheres) of effectively curved space where sound waves simply wrap about the region. Here, this is not necessarily a localized spacetime curvature (which, by conventional theories, is not even possible here) rather a material acting like an acoustic invisibility cloak (such materials are definitely possible and have been created by humans already). After all, it makes sense to hide intelligence (or habitable zones) from outer threats (e.g., cancerous homo, earthquakes).
However, the non-existence of such cloaks does not rule out habitable zones in the mantle. Sharp transitions, strong S-wave reflections and S-P/P-S wave conversions could indicate a presence of low pressure fluid-filled zones (gas/liquid) and such reflections/conversions have been detected at mantle discontinuities[
364].
In any case, surface tension at boundaries must be smaller than the compressive strength of the material in order to ensure stability. This can be solved elegantly with the existence of large scale gravitons and multiple gravitational maxima. But it is possible, at least for smaller objects, even in the framework of established theories, through small black holes[
365]. Note that, similarly to a conventional black hole, mass of a large scale graviton is concentrated, usually over a thin spherical or a ring-like region (in fact, a black hole can be explained as a special case of a large scale graviton). For the calculated graviton mass, mass density of the graviton of Earth’s upper mantle radius would be about 33 times higher than the assumed average density of real mass.
Mechanisms of creation
Materials requiring high-pressure for formation are sometimes expelled to Earth’s surface during volcanism. While high-pressure zones probably do still exist inside Earth, the existence of such materials does not imply current or global high-pressure conditions. Some materials may have been created during high-pressure conditions at the time of Earth’s formation. Indeed, the hypothesis on soul-body coupling on this scale implies initial condensation of matter, with subsequent mass redistribution correlated with graviton energy level changes. Changes in energy levels are likely synchronized with collisions of the planet with other bodies, which affect angular momenta and increase heat, stimulating expansion of matter. The excited graviton then does not have to have high energy in order for disturbed matter to concentrate about the graviton radius. In other words, graviton itself may not be redistributing matter, rather guiding it to concentrate at particular location, enabling low-pressure zones between energy levels. I also find it likely that collision energy decreases with time. The first collision (with Theia) was most energetic, temporarily expanding graviton radius probably beyond the current surface radius. The graviton(s) subsequently receded roughly to the current surface radius and this loss of energy should probably be correlated with the creation of the Moon. Next, the lithosphere was created, as the graviton(s) receded to the ground level. Subsequent impacts were asteroid impacts resulting in the creation of layers between the inner core and the lithosphere, starting from the bottom towards the top. These may have also resulted in the creation of moons (progressively smaller over time) but some or all of these may have not escaped Earth (if some did they may have been absorbed by Luna). The uppermost layers of the mantle have been created, or at least adjusted, during Phanerozoic and, as shown, can be correlated with major mass extinctions on the surface. This implies that each of these extinctions included asteroid impacts, albeit of progressively smaller energy. And this is why one can probably expect asteroid impacts during the current extinction as well.
Note that this kind of development is equivalent to embryonic development of animals on Earth, where the creation of ectoderm (outermost layer) precedes the creation of inner tissue.
Note also that the moon creation hypothesis explains antipodal anomalies. If asteroid impacts are relatively synchronized with creation of energetic moons inside Earth, ejected in the opposite direction, starting from the layer correlated with current graviton energy level, this can result in antipodal anomalies such as volcanism (e.g., Siberian Traps).
Impact should be relatively synchronized with the jump in energy level, but such excitations are unstable, resulting in
immediate de-excitation and ejection of mass towards the antipodal location. Whether the mass will actually be ejected away from a planet will depend on the impact (excitation) energy and energy and state of the planet. In the early days of Earth’s formation the mantle was liquid and the energy of impactors was higher, so the probability for the ejecta to escape Earth’s gravity and form a satellite was also higher. Note that such mechanism of Moon creation explains high similarities between the mantles of Earth and the Moon (in conventional scenarios, the Moon’s mantle should be enriched in impactor material and should therefore differ significantly from Earth’s mantle, but that’s not the case[
366]).
As the planet ages and cools down, outer materials harden and the crust is formed while impactor energies decrease. Thus, ejection of material becomes unlikely, however, induction of significant antipodal volcanism is still possible.
If the hypothesis is correct, this should not be limited to Earth. Indeed, the Tharsis region (bulge), especially Noctis Labyrinthus/Syria Planum area, on Mars, looks exactly like being produced by a spherical body hitting the lithosphere from below. The effects of this on surface should include terrain elevation, crust fracturing and volcanism. The resulting effect on the crust below the surface would be similar to magmatic underplating (thickening of the crust), which may have been detected as well[
367]. Interestingly, there is a large impact crater (Isidis Planitia) antipodal to the Syria Planum. Note that plate tectonics on Mars has stopped, probably a few billions of years ago, enabling for antipodal correlation to remain conserved over such long time.
Note also that direct antipodal correlation requires direct asteroid collision with the planet (90∘), and such asteroids may be the only ones carrying enough energy for energy level changes.
While the initial energies were higher and there was enough energy to eject material far away, the energies involved decrease with time and eventually there won’t be enough energy to breach the surface layer. In case of the former, satellites in stable orbits can be formed, in case of the latter, only a mark in the form of fractured crust may remain. But what about intermediate energies? In that case the body would be ejected from the planet, only to fall back down and get absorbed again. As the body is ejected, a lava pond (or, water pond - in case of icy worlds) would be left behind. Then, as it falls back down and sinks, it would create ripples in that pond. As the lava solidifies, concentric rings would be left imprinted in the terrain. Indeed, such imprints have been observed on celestial bodies (e.g., Callisto and Europa[
368]), most recently on Venus[
369]. Note that a conventional explanation for these structures requires two impactors hitting the same place over a very short period of time. How likely is that? Such scenario would be possible in the early days of formation. However, during that time the planet is much hotter and the entire surface may be liquid (this is almost certain if there’s a high probability for two asteroids to hit the same place twice during a short period of time). Considering the fact that fossilization of ripples requires relatively fast cooling, such events cannot occur very early on, rather at some intermediate period, consistent with the hypothesis presented here.
Interestingly, the size of the imprint (Haasttse-baad Tessera Ring Complex) on Venus (∼1500 km) is very similar in size to the anomaly below the Mars’ Tharsis region[
370].
Depending on energy and the place of impact, asteroids alone may not be a threat for life globally, however, coupled with antipodal volcanism the threat increases significantly. It is also questionable, at least for the initial collision (with Theia), whether the two colliding bodies were fully formed prior to collision. It may be more likely that the event involved coupling of relatively naked gravitons where standard mass was acquired during the coupling (in which case, the event probably should not be interpreted as collision). The initial form then should have resembled a doughnut, with well mixed mass. Collapse of one graviton to a lower energy level would create the, more dense, core, and would be relatively synchronized with differentiation. Another collapse would then be synchronized with the ejection of mass in composition equal to the Earth’s forming mantle. This mass, of course, would then form the Moon. This scenario is, indeed, supported by the exploration of the Moon and most recent studies[
366].
Note that, depending on the angular momentum prior to collapse, the ejection may not be the appropriate term in this case. What if the initial graviton radius was much larger than the current Earth’s radius? Suppose it was beyond the current Roche limit, and the graviton is a superposition of two large scale gravitons of significantly different energy. A collapse of a graviton with higher energy would cause most of the standard mass to collapse as well, however, the smaller graviton quantum may not collapse exactly at the same time. Its collapse beyond the Roche limit and synchronized concentration of leftover standard matter would result in a satellite (forming the Moon), which now may be interpreted as external localization.
Note that, in case of standard atoms, an excited electron can similarly be interpreted as superposition of graviton quanta (electron + photon).
Note that, due to relativity of causality, it is possible for a precursor volcanism to occur before the antipodal impact (in fact, the existence of precursors in general could be interpreted as one consequence of relative causality). A precursor impact cannot be ruled out as well. This may allow for certain predictability of the major event. However, since a precursor is inevitably shifted in time, its spatial coordinates may differ from the main event position as well (probably proportionally).
