Leid me verder dan mijn voeten kunnen dragen. Ik vertrouw op Uw genade, want ik ben in Uw nabijheid. (Opwekking 789) Waarom deze studie? Waarom zou iemand tijd steken in zo'n dor onderwerp als Bijbelse chronologie. Maakt het voor ons geloof wat uit hoe lang het allemaal geduurd en wanneer het precies is gebeurd? In het algemeen maakt dat inderdaad niet zoveel uit. Het wordt anders als er beweerd wordt, dat de wetenschap heeft aangetoond dat God mens en wereld niet in korte tijd heeft geschapen, maar dat alles in een langdurig proces van miljoenen jaren is ontstaan. Het wordt anders als beweerd wordt, dat de wetenschap heeft aangetoond dat de uittocht uit Egypte niet echt gebeurd is. Schepping en uittocht spelen een cruciale rol binnen het geloof. De Bijbelboeken Genesis en Exodus vormen de basis waarop de rest van de Bijbel voortbouwt. Wie dat ter discussie stelt, trekt de bodem onder de Bijbel weg. In zijn boek En de aarde bracht voort verdedigt prof. Gijsbert van de Brink de evolutietheorie. “Van den Brink komt in drie stappen tot zijn geloof in de evolutietheorie. De eerste stap is het geloof in de ouderdom van de aarde en de aardlagen. De kans dat dat waar is schat hij op 99%. De tweede stap is het geloof dat de opeenvolging van de fossielen in de aardlagen de evolutie zichtbaar maakt. De kans daarop schat hij op 80%. De derde stap is het geloof dat biologisch de evolutietheorie juist blijkt. Vanwege de neodarwinistische onderbouwing met mutaties en natuurlijke selectie en vanwege de genetische overeenkomsten die sterker zijn naarmate soorten meer verwant zijn. Daarbij is hij niet zeker of de natuurlijke selectie de enige motor achter het evolutieproces is. Die kans schat hij op 50%.” (J.A. van Delden, Recensie En de aarde bracht voort). De kans dat de evolutietheorie juist is, is in werkelijkheid zo goed als nul (Han de Bruijn, Evolutie is kansloos). “Wiskundige analysen laten zien dat een proces van volledig willekeurige mutaties binnen de totale veronderstelde geschiedenis van het leven op aarde van 4,5 miljard jaar hooguit één nieuw gen dat een functioneel eiwit produceert (met maar 150 aminozuren) zal opleveren. En dan ga je al uit van een reeds bestaand gen. Hoe dat er moet zijn gekomen is ook nog eens een groot raadsel. Duidelijk is in ieder geval, dat willekeurige, blinde mutaties niet de miljoenen genen kunnen produceren die de ontwikkeling van alle levensvormen op aarde vereisen.” (Hans Hoogerduijn, “Het fossielenarchief wordt gedomineerd door zogenaamde radiaties.” – Overgangsvormen ontbreken) Om met wetenschapsfilosoof Paul Feyerabend te spreken: “It can't just be that the universe--Boom!--you know, and develops. It just doesn't make any sense.” (John Horgan, Was Philosopher Paul Feyerabend Really Science's "Worst Enemy"?) Dat veel mensen toch de evolutietheorie aanhangen komt door de 99% zekerheid dat de aarde miljarden jaren oud is. Het wetenschappelijk gezien sterkste punt van de evolutietheorie is inderdaad Deep Time. In deze studie laat ik zien dat de aarde en het heelal ogenschijnlijk miljarden jaren oud zijn, maar in werkelijkheid nog geen tienduizend jaar oud. Ik laat ook zien wat het verband is tussen de hoge radiometrische dateringen en de Bijbelse jaartallen. Heb ik daarmee alle problemen opgelost? Dat niet, maar dat is ook niet beslissend: “Is er strijd, metterdaad, niet maar in schijn, bij oppervlakkige indruk, doch wezenlijk, tussen wat de Heilige Schrift openbaart of zegt, èn wat buiten haar door geschiedeniswetenschap of natuur- en oudheidkunde wordt betoogd, dan dient haar woord gelovig aangenomen te worden, maar moet men veronderstellen, dat bij die andere wetenschappen ergens een fout in waarneming, combinering, redenering, moet schuilen, al kan men die op een gegeven ogenblik ook nog niet aanwijzen. De Heilige Schrift moet als het eigen Woord van God om haarszelfs wil geloofd worden, d.w.z. omdat zij iets zegt, en dus ook tegen alle bewering die het anders zegt. Anders zou zij geloochend worden als inderdaad te zijn Gods openbaring, het eigen Woord van God.” (S. Greijdanus, Schriftbeginselen ter Schriftverklaring, pagina 62). Hoe kunnen we zeer verre sterren zien als het heelal ca. 7.000 jaar oud is? Het centrum van ons sterrenstelsel, de Melkweg, is ongeveer 28.000 lichtjaar van de aarde verwijderd. Het dichtstbijzijnde andere grote sterrenstelsel, de Andromedanevel, staat ongeveer 2,5 miljoen lichtjaar van ons af. De afstand tot het verst waarneembare sterrenstelsel (GN-z11) is berekend op 13,4 miljard lichtjaar. Het zichtbare heelal is dus 13,4 miljard lichtjaar groot, maar volgens de Bijbel ca. 7300 jaar oud. Dit is alleen met elkaar in overeenstemming te brengen als de lichtsnelheid vroeger miljoenen malen hoger is geweest dan tegenwoordig. Tegen de conclusie dat de lichtsnelheid vroeger veel hoger moet zijn geweest, is ingebracht1 dat lichtecho’s bewijzen dat de lichtsnelheid in het verleden ongeveer dezelfde waarde had als tegenwoordig. Maar klopt dit wel? Onderstaande foto’s tonen de lichtecho van de ster V838 Monocerotis, die op 6 februari 2002 een zeer heldere uitbarsting had. Door deze uitbarsting werd de stofwolk rondom de ster verlicht. Daarbij leek het licht aanvankelijk veel sneller dan normaal te reizen en uiteindelijk juist langzamer dan normaal. Dit is een optische illusie die verklaard kan worden door uit te gaan van een bolvormige stofwolk met een straal van ongeveer 7 lichtjaar. Als we hier rekening mee houden dan is wat we waarnemen in overeenstemming met de ons vertrouwde lichtsnelheid van ongeveer 300.000 km/s. De Hubble ruimtetelescoop maakte deze fascinerende foto’s van de lichtecho van V838 Monocerotis. 1 Onder meer door Heino Falcke, Six thousand versus 14 billion: How large and how old is the universe? Op de foto van 8 februari 2004 heeft het licht dat door de stofwolk werd gereflecteerd 2 lichtjaar extra afgelegd t.o.v. het licht dat ons op 6 februari 2002 rechtstreeks heeft bereikt. V838 Monocerotis staat op 20.000 lichtjaar afstand van de aarde. Als we dit getal precies nemen, heeft het licht dat ons rechtstreeks heeft bereikt, een afstand van 20.000 lichtjaar afgelegd en het licht dat door de stofwolk werd gereflecteerd 20.002 lichtjaar. Veronderstel nu dat de lichtsnelheid ten tijde van de uitbarsting van deze ster 10x zo hoog was als nu en dat deze na 1.800 jaar abrupt afnam tot de huidige lichtsnelheid. Op dat moment zouden zowel het directe als het indirecte licht 10 x 1.800 = 18.000 lichtjaar hebben afgelegd. Het directe licht moet dan nog 20.000 - 18.000 = 2.000 lichtjaar en doet daar 2.000 jaar over. In totaal dus 1.800 + 2.000 = 3.800 jaar. Het indirecte licht moet nog 20.002 - 18.000 = 2.002 lichtjaar en doet daar 2.002 jaar over. In totaal 1.800 + 2.002 = 3.802 jaar. Dus ook in dit geval arriveert het licht dat door de stofwolk werd gereflecteerd ons 2 jaar later dan het licht dat ons rechtstreeks bereikt. De conclusie is dat als de lichtsnelheid met de tijd verandert, de snelheid van het licht die we bij een lichtecho waarnemen, niet de snelheid is waarmee het licht oorspronkelijk werd uitgezonden, maar de huidige lichtsnelheid. “If an event occurred at exactly the speed of light when c was 10 times its present value, and we received the signal with c equal to c now, then that event would appear to occur at exactly c now.” (Barry Setterfield & Trevor Norman, The atomic constants, light, and time) Hoe lang duurden de zes scheppingsdagen? Dr. J. Schelhaas Hzn. schreef in voetnoot 2 van het eerste deel van de Paraphrase van het boek Genesis het volgende: “Over de lengte van de scheppingsdagen is veel gediscussieerd. Ik sluit mij aan bij de opvatting, dat de auteur bedoeld heeft, dat het dagen geweest zijn van gewone lengte, dus van 24 uur. De scheppingsdag is wel een dag Gods, maar tevens een dag in betrekking tot de aarde.

Bindon2 1Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2 Department of Anthropology, Western Australian Museum, Francis Street, Perth, Western Australia 6000 Abstract - Numerous mythological references to meteoritic events by Aboriginal people in Australia contrast with the scant physical evidence of their interaction with meteoritic materials. Possible reasons for this are the unsuitability of some meteorites for tool making and the apparent inability of early Aborigines to work metallic materials.

E-mail: [email protected] (Received 21 July 2008; revision accepted 12 May 2009) Abstract–Impact ejecta eroded and transported by gravity flows, tsunamis, or glaciers have been reported from a number of impact structures on Earth. Impact ejecta reworked by fluvial processes, however, are sparsely mentioned in the literature. This suggests that shocked mineral grains and impact glasses are unstable when eroded and transported in a fluvial system. As a case study, we here present a report of impact ejecta affected by multiple fluvial reworking including rounded quartz grains with planar deformation features and diaplectic quartz and feldspar glass in pebbles of fluvial sandstones from the “Monheimer Höhensande” ~10 km east of the Ries crater in southern Germany.

  • Abstract: Investigation of the Form and Age of the Bloody Creek Crater
    Atlantic Geology . Volume 48 . 2012 40 Investigation of the form and age of the Bloody Creek Crater, southwestern Nova Scotia Mariella Nalepa1, Ian Spooner1, and Peter Williams2 1. Department of Earth and Environmental Science, Acadia Uni- versity, Wolfville, Nova Scotia B4P 2R6, Canada <[email protected]> ¶ 2. Department of Physics, Acadia Uni- versity, Wolfville, Nova Scotia B4P 2R6, Canada Virtually all terrestrial impact craters exhibit a circular geometry in plan-form; only three impact sites exhibiting non-circular, elongate forms have been identified on Earth. One of these exceptional sites is the Bloody Creek Crater located in southwestern Nova Scotia, an approximately 0.42 km long-axis elliptical crater first identified in 1987 during a regional air photo survey. It was confirmed as an impact crater in 2009 through integrated geomorphic, geophysical, and petrographic data. The structure’s rare ellipticity, pristine definition, preservation through shock metamorphic features of anomalously high pressures at the rim, low depth-to-diameter ratio, as well as age remain ambiguous and complicate the interpretation of the origin and evolution of the crater. The purpose of this study is to quantify the form of the feature in order to better understand the nature and age of impact. To achieve this objective, analytical software was used to assess the shape of the crater rim. An extensive review of the literature was also performed to understand the controls on crater formation as well as to synthesize a model for the geological evolution of the site which would aid in the interpretation of the age of the structure. Results demonstrate that the form of the crater rim is best approximated by an ellipse, as illustrated by comparison of the RMSE (Root-Mean-Square Error) calculated for various geometric models.

We paddled the full 200-km circuit, a pure wilderness voyage in magnificent scenery. Manicouagan Reservoir: the lake is the combined product of one of the largest known impacts on Earth, the subsequent ice ages, and a gigantic retention dam. It is shaped as a 10 km wide annulus around a nearly circular island of 56 km diameter. Both the lake and the island measure 2000 km2. Together, they appear as the beautiful “Eye of Quebec” on photographs from space. It is one of the most striking structures on the face of the Earth and the most obvious impact scar. Impact: a 5-km bolide (asteroid or a yet larger comet) hit this area, then part of Panagaea, 214 million years ago. It caused a fireball as far as present-day New York, a melting pot boiling the local bedrock over 50 km extent and 9 km depth, and a crater wall of about 100 km diameter. This event occurred during the Mesozoical Triassic, a warm era in which therapsids including pre-mammals throve, halfway between the previous and present cold episodes. Surprisingly, the massive extinction at the Triassic-Jurassic transition, starting the age of the dinosaurs and as bad as the K-T extinction ending it, is dated 13 My after the impact (the even worse Permian-Triassic 1 “great dying” event took place 37 My before it).

  • The Geological Record of Meteorite Impacts
    THE GEOLOGICAL RECORD OF METEORITE IMPACTS Gordon R. Osinski Canadian Space Agency, 6767 Route de l'Aeroport, St-Hubert, QC J3Y 8Y9 Canada, Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT 2. FORMATION OF METEORITE IMPACT STRUCTURES Meteorite impact structures are found on all planetary bodies in the Solar System with a solid The formation of hypervelocity impact craters has surface. On the Moon, Mercury, and much of Mars, been divided, somewhat arbitrarily, into three main impact craters are the dominant landform. On Earth, stages [3] (Fig. 2): (1) contact and compression, (2) 174 impact sites have been recognized, with several excavation, and (3) modification. A further stage of more new craters being discovered each year. The “hydrothermal and chemical alteration” is also terrestrial impact cratering record is critical for our considered as a separate, final stage in the cratering understanding of impacts as it currently provides the process (e.g., [4]), and is also described below. only ground-truth data on which to base interpretations of the cratering record of other planets and moons. In this contribution, I summarize the processes and products of impact cratering and provide and an up-to-date assessment of the geological record of meteorite impacts. 1. INTRODUCTION It is now widely recognized that impact cratering is a ubiquitous geological process that affects all planetary objects with a solid surface (e.g., [1]). One only has to look up on a clear night to see that impact structures are the dominant landform on the Moon. The same can be said of all the rocky and icy bodies in the solar system that have retained portions of their earliest crust.
