Yes! The Earth is Expanding. Part 12 of 14.

[beastman5566]

couldn't the extra mass be coming from all the decaying organics on the surface?

[mobleytmd]

I f we think back to how creation can even exist we can conclude that the universe has already proven that nothingness can transform into what we know today. Therefore if nothing can become everything as we know it, than anything in theory is possible. It’s only a matter of how. If the universe can expand why not the contents within it.

[silviom1963]

I assume he is making this presentation for camera, I can bet you there are no audience listening.

[Yoshi5020]

He wrote off the idea that the mass was the same rather quickly. Why is it not plausible that there was just a lot more gravity on the surface than today?

[Willbotx]

The earth never gets larger it was at its set size when it was formed.

[MacLaurin83]

Wait... So matter decays into radiation, thus decreasing in mass, and then the energy condensates back into MORE MASS THAN WAS NEEDED TO CREATE IT??? Apparently E=mc^2 only holds in the direction you want it to...

[Aleksandrgrc]

some theorize that there is a miniture electric sun inside earth.

[RomaniaTricolor]

@Aleksandrgrc I agree also. There is no iron inner core of Earth, is a hydrogen/helium oneresponsable for the magnetic field. Just imagine our Sun being the size of Earth, he has "to fight" with the cold space, therefore, we have the crust. And even in the case of our Sun or bigger ones, space always win by sheer quantity compared with the limited Sun (blowing up and partially colapsing in itself in the end).

The Eart is just a tiny crusty Sun.

:)

[JoeyMars1]

The mass came from the shrinking space around the outside boundry of the earth, hence space is transformed into new matter inside the earth

[discouniverse]

of cause growing...gravitation works only inwards, so during 1000 mln years it can expand greatly, not only dust, but and comets, meteors, asteroids, meteorites and even sun wind and as earth got more mass, the hotter she become which added some more 5% in diameter

[jatigre1]

The Aether hypothesis makes it all this possible, think about it. The downward Aether flow is what we call "gravity". Manipulating the Aether means: control of mass and inertia, anti-gravity, the production of inexhaustible pollution free energy and matter manipulation at the sub atomic level. Superluminal communications and transportation, among a lot of other stuff...

[Jools86]

The very fact that Dr Maxlow doesn't know what the sun is made of, speaks volumes.

If he had any understanding of cosmology he'd know that when a star runs out of energy from the conversion of hydrogen to helium to iron, it is unable to keep itself running, expands into a red giant and explodes. These debris fragments form a very early rock formation that we now call out earth. 'Blobs of plasma from a star' is just an amateur guess. And quite frankly makes his whole work on this void.

[TheGrowingAwareness]

@Jools86

really? So how do you know this? From books? From teachers? From research? From what? Everything we know we have been taught ... your guess is as good a guess as Nasa, or as Dr Maxlow, or a homeless person. It is all guesswork, we look for the facts, then draw a conclusion. As new facts arise conclusions change and understanding grows.

Often time what was once thought to be absolute no longer is.

We once thought the earth was flat by the so called "professionals" on the planet

[jreed136]

@TheGrowingAwareness This just doesn't work because we've PROVEN that the crust floats on the mantle. You can see how far down earthquakes go along the crust and see a perfect picture of the plate that's riding on.

Also, where is this new matter coming from that's causing the earth to grow? There's just more holes in this guesswork than the more accepted - AND YOUNGER theory of plate tectonics.

[miketite]

Is it possible the extra mass came from inside the earth? which would mean the earth is now hollow and not solid. The expanding earth theory does seem more consistent with the earth being hollow, as oppose to solid.

We may need a total overhaul of our thinking/understanding of the earth -inside and out.

[dbingamon]

@miketite It doesn't have to be hollow, if you start out in extremely dense matter and it undergoes radioactive decay, the less dense matter occupies more space.

Also, cooling causes expansion as well. Ever put a pop can in the freezer? It expands and bursts from freezing.

[michaeldublg]

@miketite the only way the earth can be expanding is yes, it is hollow OR the mass of the earth is becoming less dense like a sponge OR material is being added by a micro singularity at the core OR material is being added from space in a way we are not aware of OR the earth is some how in a way alive and grows using particles, from space, the son or meteorites as some kind of fertilizer or nutrient to grow.

[MarkProffitt]

@michaeldublg Very good. Three other possible sources of additional mass, although I think it's easier to believe the mass has remained the same or similar and is foaming as gasses are released from nuclear decay

-- Perhaps electric current flowing from the sun is converted to matter in the center of the planet.

-- Space time is expanding along with everything in it.

-- Earth is moving faster thus increases it's mass even though the amount of material is the same.

Or the theory is wrong

[Txwes12122012]

@michaeldublg I was thinking on the lines of these, I also was thinking more on the lines of a sponge that over time, earth could soften up from it's hot-cooling-hard stage to a form that has to be leveled out like oil,water,ect can't mix so over time water has made it's way out from everything else and in the process of this happening other material coming up from the core as in doing so we have been expanding. Water heated wants to raise easier than other forms of matter.

[clevername333]

pseudo science... fun for the whole family... why does he rely on the most complicated unprovable process to explain the expanding earth? How do you make a crazy theory even more crazy? Ohh right, making matter out of nothing in the core... in a nut shell right? right....

Here is my pseudo science theory regarding the expanding earth. How about the earth was formed like a bubble of crust slowly spinning out and solidifying as it cools. it is roughly hollow or less dense internally.

[docatomics]

...matter does "fluff up" as it decays into less proton dense matter , such as uranium into lead & helium, radon, etc.

~exterior excitation from similar dense bodies interaction would further excite natural decay of a element with the crust acting as shielding and conservation of catalysing decay emissions from a core of critical density.

[MaryStewart]

so funny! how can the earth's insides keep the earth from shrinking after a certain point? or will the earth explode like a baloon? haha!

[qiovanni]

the formation of water on the Planet must have something to do with it. Where was all the water before the Earth started expanding??

[PracticalTheorist]

@qiovanni It was pretymuch sloshing about in the Himalayas and other high areas. That would explain the fossils found up there anyway :) As the earth was expanding the water levels dropped. That however, does not explain where the water came from in the first place...

[docatomics]

...star dust is continually pulled down into earth & some times the dust is the size of large asteroid, sometimes the size of a proton, it all adds up & reacts along the way. Shoot a piece of dry ice into a pot of molten earth and see what happens. Do the same to a water bed & watch the expansion and reaction after the shock wave splashes the water against the vinyl bag & stretches the bag out in ripples.

There are many factors & condtions in effect , varying at any time.

[Leopoldo888]

If for some reason, heat, or maybe a vibrational thing, the componets of the atoms, or the atoms itself, began to separate from each other, the body the were conforming will expand.... or the opposite way, some process is "condensing" energy into matter around a pre-existant "white hole" around of which the earth exists...

[tonymynd]

Ok, What about all the material that comes from space? Like meteors, cosmic dust... etc? that also contributes to the increasing volume of the earth?

[crocaduck]

@FenixDown147

Having the same mass becoming less dense is not what Maxlow is really saying.

How could the earth form in such a compressed state with a super hot iron core (and mantle?) and then slowly expand over billions of years? His diagram show almost no liquid iron core and mantle. The 1/5 earth must of cooled on the surface to the point where continental crust completely covered it. How could it be so hot but allow crust to form on it at the same time?

[videocruzer]

have you ever cooked anything on a stove.

my guess in the same way that a crust forms on the surface if you do not stir it.

[crocaduck]

Our best understanding of how the moon came to be was that a mars-sized body, Theia struck the nascent earth off-center and the ejected mantle material formed into a ring around the earth. The ring eventually coalesced into the moon.

[crocaduck]

Let me get this straight. Energy is converted to mass. To go from the moon's mass to the earth's means that a hell of a lot of energy (which couldn't make up the earth) was converted to mass. But the two mechanisms we know of--fission and fusion--convert mass to energy. I don't know of a mechanism that would convert a substantial amount of energy into mass. Does anyone?

[sergiobrejo]

i know. the process is often reffered to as Creation, imho i think its a silly name ...

[Iboughtafriend]

if there is anything worse that a charleatan elegantly spruiking BS (thingk Gore), it is clumsy delivery of good insight.

[DrakeDorosh]

Viewer may be interested to visit Prof O. Manuals website and search "iron sun". It seems that the Hydrogen sun predicted by the Big Bang doesn't match the observational data. It may give you physics guys some ideas.

[cusanusnicolas]

Neal Adams explains the extra matter in part, and I myself came up with a similar idea before I was aware of the EE theory a few years back. If you add Neal's idea to mine, you have a better one, at least a lot better than the Big Bang invented by a team of mainstream idiots.

[rustyscrapper]

he is trying to explain it using only science. He will never be able to explain it that way. The earths mass is increasing somehow. Its ok to say WE DONT KNOW HOW and still say that it is true. Science will never be able to explain everything.

[FenixDown147]

the mass of the earth isn't increasing, its density is decreasing causing the expansion

[GrandAbbot]

Or at least the primitive science we have at this period in time.

.. or the science we know about (much of the true science is not even made publicly available)

[FlamingBeret]

@rustyscrapper

Well said but unfortunately we live in a world were absolutes sell and sell well for those that like leading the lead. The more people willing to believe in uncertainty the surer the world will be.

[gildedcrest]

So what did he say was the mechanism during that diatribe? he started off with "I don't know" and then just went all over the place and trailed off. SHAME!

[Kable3141]

seven minutes and he still didnt explain a mechanism. Where is all that extra matter coming from?

[goru426]

Dude nobody knows where the matter comes from.... all we know is that somehow it is forming causing the earth to expand...

[JimmyKSteiner]

goru246 - ever heard of the 2nd law of thermodynamics?

[FenixDown147]

the earth is not increasing in mass. its slowly becoming less dense around the core and thats whats causeing the expansion. imagine all the mass of current earth crushed to a molten ball 1/4th its current size. some sort of reaction within the core (wich is very dense) is creating a less dense or a "lighter" mantle. kinda like a baking soda and vinegar reaction only hotter, bigger, and more complicated.

[fatsyroque]

he said there is mass increase, 6:40

and in the next clip, he himself doesn't know where all these mass come from...

something yet to be researched...

[dehilster]

Plate tectonics is flat earth. Maxlow's work is probably the best in expansion tectonics today. A big big fan of his work.

[michaelson88]

Has this guy ever thought of Plate tectonics??

[ReligionOfSacrifice]

Study real science and scientific evidence michaelson88 and then get back with him.

[dnabiologic]

Comming Nobelprize !

[MrHajdi]

Concerning this whole theory:

Dr Maxlow reveals his way of thinking in part 1 along those lines: unfortunately, it's human nature that requires us to find the reasons of things in order the comprehend the actual physics of it. Well, if anybody with some spare time to play around with geometrical models to find any kind of pattern could sell it as a theory, then I guess we would still be stuck in the middle ages or worse. Science is just this: supporting observation with reasoning.

FWIW, my 2c.

[fraustrated]

Magma is ejected from the earth,s interior

under extreme pressure. On the surface it immediately expands to several times it original mass. In tlhe process it loses density. That is the simple mystery to earth growth.. Inestimable amounts of lava has been deposited on the earths surface over the ages and the process goes on today on land and under the sea. More land surface is being created and the same amount of sea water is covering the newly created land under the sea. Hence the seas recede

[MrHajdi]

I would be very interested in the numbers supporting this. I imagine (1) lava isn't to compressible and (2) the pressure assuming no new mass is being created, would have been constant (the mass compressing the lava below the crust stays the same. I suggest a revision of your high school physics.

[OriginalAtomicSheep]

Extreme pressure would condense the material into a smaller volume hence increase the density but the mass would remain the same. e.g. take 100 feathers without compressing them... they might weigh... lets say 50 grams... and take up the volume of a small plastic bag... now take that same bag and scrunch it up real tight... same mass... smaller object... just greater density.

[SolMaster]

The sun isn't made of energy... we know that it's mostly (>99%) hydrogen and helium in the plasma state of matter. "energy" is not a state of matter.

If a planet was actually stuff thrown off from the Sun it would be primarily hydrogen and helium, and with its small mass it would certainly not hold together, but simply dissipate or be reconstituted into the Sun

Maxlow is essentially saying that hydrogen and helium are becoming much heavier elements... this isn't making any sense.

[atrao101]

is there a public record or google map of geo core data (global data) applied to a sphere model? If so let me know how I can find that information for a student project in the United States, Louisiana. Thanks much.

[DonHoraldo]

growingearthdebait(dot)mybb3(d­ot)org

[northernpatriot54]

That is a pretty neat explanation as to why he believes the Earth is exanding. A solid core of energy slow slows down, at the same time generating more and more mass as this process continues.

It is a very interesting theory w/ a lot of answers, and a lot more questions!

[RTyp06]

Ahh the increasing mass problem. Not one of these expanding earth guys ever discuss the amount of new matter being added to the earth from outer space on a daily basis.

[etzel33]

If you were an "expanding earth guy" we'd be interested to here your data on that.

[thepoet19792001]

Is the universe increasing in mass as it expands? Provided the earth were expanding then wouldn't it make sense that it is hollow to a certain extent. The earth is Hollow. The shell we stand on is getting thinner.

[Minionuup]

Who says there is "new matter" being created?

[wireddiva]

The word is "canon".Not cannon.

[pj3ns3n]

Is it possible that the earth started in the conventional sense and shrank due to gravitational forces until the internal density and pressure started a fusion reaction which then provided the outward pressure to create growth. This is in line with the expected growth of our future sun. I believe most theories say this is not possible should scientists take another look. Or alternatively has the gravitational constant changed with time?

[Minionuup]

Which means the earth is esssentially a small sun that formed a crust due to its small size.

[vince38curious2]

Dr Marlow you say you don't know where all the extra mass came from for such a well educated man you should know that the extra mass came from meteors and asteroids and space dust the the earth has been sweeping up during it travels around the solar system and through space in general as we travel around our galaxy to some peoples understanding in the order of 30million to in some cases 100million tons a year through out the earths history.That would explain how the earth gained mass to expand.

[etzel33]

Not curious anymore eh Vince? At least people are thinking here.

[staticling05]

so the earth is made out of helium

[Edward1589]

E=MC^2

Helium/hydrogen/any other such gas is converted to energy, then energy can be converted to mass. If we can find out how to do that, we hit home run. :)

This theory can answer a lot of questions: origin of Moon, how bodies/matter react to ever increasing rate of expansion of the Universe, how continents came to be today as they are now, is there a mag. field swap every x or not, damn lol can go on forever, out of characters.

Mark my words in 5-15 years this will be cannon theory.

[mrgamma2424]

Why are there always volcanoes near Canyons, Vallies and Rifts? Even Hawaii and Iceland have canyons and the are nothing but volcano islands.

And why do all island arc systems have volcanoes on the concave side and a trench rift system on the convex side?

[marneedear]

Why do you keep posting this? Why do you capitalize canyons, valleys and rifts? Why do you keep misspelling valleys?

[izovire]

So this means earth could in fact be more than 4.6 billion years old... considering that molten rock cannot be dated... we don't know how long earth was molten if it was...
