Earth w/o Magnetosphere, w/o Moon
I'm thinking that life upon Earth may simply have been a wee bit
pre-ice-age iffy, as having been situated a little too far away from our sun that simply wasn't quite as active and thereby as radiating as it is today, especially if Earth were having to manage without benefit of such a nearby moon. Proto-Earth obviously once upon a time offered a nearly Venus like atmosphere, thus technically capable of having created and obviously of having sustained such complex happenstance of life, but perhaps not offering all that much environmental quality nor of sufficient diversity, and especially if still limited to the below-surface environment, and worse yet if the bulk of mother Earth's above surface environment had otherwise been so often and so nearly entirely sub-frozen solid for so much of the time, as clearly indicated by way of those ice core samples depicting each of the many ice-ages that were consistently worse off per each proceeding ice-age cycle, that's having represented such an extensive energy differential in so much so that it simply can not be so easily attributed to local orbital mechanics w/o moon, nor that of sufficient solar energy fluctuation cycles. As further pointed by Henry Kroll's research, whereas there's no apparent possibility of a lunar orbital fluctuation that's capable of being associated with all of those previous ice-age cycles, but only involving that of the latest thaw which seems to have no apparent end in sight. This seems to suggest that our salty and once upon a time icy proto-moon hasn't been orbiting around Earth for quite as long as we've been informed, much less having been created by way of any Mars like impactor. However, it's perfectly interesting to taking a little notice as to how much orbital energy that moon of ours currently represents. Moon's orbital (Fc)Centripetal Force = 2.00076525e20 N = 2.04021e19 kgf The associated centrifugal energy of 2.000765e20 N.m. = 2.00076e20 joules The 40 mm/year recession is essentially worthy of one meter/.04 = 25 Therefore, if leaving us at 40 mm/yr = 2.00076e20/25 = 8.00304e18 joules/yr 8.00304e18/8.76e3 = .91359e15 joules per hour = 913.6e12 jhr 913.6e12 jhr / 3.6e3 = 253.8e9 joules/sec (recession energy = 254 gigajoules) A second calculation that's based upon a bit more robust assesment of gravitation force gets this amount of energy a little more impressive; http://www.answersingenesis.org/crea...14/i4/moon.asp Is the moon really old? by "Dr Don DeYoung . . . if the earth moon system is as old as evolutionists say, we should have lost our moon long ago." "There is a huge force of gravity between the earth and moon - some 70 million trillion pounds (that's 70 with another 18 zeroes after it), or 30,000 trillion tonnes (that's 30 with 15 zeroes)." If Dr. Don DeYong's 30e18 kgf were correct; therefore 30e18 kgf * 9.80665 = 294.2e18 Joules At the supposed ongoing recession of 0.04 m/yr = 294.2e18/25 = 11.768e18 J/yr Per second: 11.768e18/31.536e6 = .373161e12 or 373.161e9 J (recession energy = 373 gigajoules) In either case of 254 gj or 373 gj, and I've not yet taken into account the amount of extra tidal energy that's having to compensate for the drag coefficient nor of the reflected IR of whatever the physically dark moon has to offer, whereas this still represents a rather terrific amount of energy that's obviously powerful enough to have affected platetonics and perhaps towards keeping our outer shell that's surrounding our molten iron core in motion and thus extensively pumping up and otherwise sustaining the highly beneficial if not critically essential magnetosphere that's in the process of failing us at the rate of 0.05%/year, as much as global warming has been roasting us. Remember that without such a magnetosphere, surface life as we know it wouldn't have stood much of a chance in this otherwise sub-frozen hell of our having evolved or otherwise having coexisted upon Earth. From other research and of reasonable conjectures that fit entirely within the regular laws of planetology physics, we've also been informed that early Earth and therefore most likely prior to our having a moon we had a 50+ bar (Venus like) worth of a highly protective atmosphere. As it is (w/o drag coefficient), by the hour it seems a great deal of available energy either way. Brad Guth: 254 gj * 3.6e3 = 914.4e12 j/hr Don DeYoung: 373 gj * 3.6e3 = 1,343e12 j/hr Even going by way of my less impressive numbers of 914 terajoules/hr, excluding the fact that our moon was obviously once upon a time much closer and having been receding at a much faster rate, whereas the more likely arrival and subsequent impact of our once upon a time icy proto-moon, that which currently represents an absolutely horrific amount of ongoing applied energy, plus having accommodated the extremely beneficial tidal affects, that if this orbital energy were removed from our environment would cause great harm in many ways other than the loss of it's nifty moonshine and of it's reflectively good IR albedo that's also a contributing thermal energy factor on behalf of sustaining our environment, and so much so beneficial that if this moon were to be removed is where Earth's oceans would not only become cesspools of life, but our environment would also unavoidably and rather extensively ice up to quite an extent. I believe that life upon this Earth was simply too far away from the sun if it were having to manage without benefit of our moon, and it only gets worse yet if life were having to manage without a substantial magnetosphere. Intelligent/intellectual life on Earth as we know it simply couldn't have evolved and having matured and survived above the surface without the enormous energy influx benefits of the moon. Unfortunately, not only is the moon still moving itself away from us, but so has the magnetosphere been dropping off by roughly .05%/year. Others having similar notions but sharing somewhat different conclusions as to Earth w/o moon are still somewhat skewed by the supposed science associated with our having explored our physically dark, salty and otherwise extremely reactive/anticathode naked moon, as though it's no longer such a big deal. http://spiff.rit.edu/classes/phys235...n/no_moon.html Unfortunately, all forms of recorded history or otherwise of earlier depicted history are those limited to the time since our last ice-age. It's exactly as though we hadn't a moon prior to then, and it's also as though intelligent/intellectual life upon Earth hadn't existed/coexisted to any extent prior to the last ice-age. I totally agree that proto-life as formulating below the surface was perfectly doable without a moon, whereas the core energy of mother Earth would have been doing it's thing of radiating and venting geothermal energy plus having contributed nifty loads of raw elements and thus unavoidably creating a great deal of complex opportunity for the random happenstance chemistry of life to have eventually gotten off to a good start (although our best efforts thus far haven't managed to simulate nor otherwise having accomplished such DNA formulation on behalf of even having created the most basic form of such proto-life). Using the soil and/or of the available water and thereby mud certainly counts as a viable shield against the otherwise lethal solar and cosmic radiation, as well as for having the 50+ bar worth of an early atmosphere would have extensively if not entirely protected early life on Earth w/o moon and w/o magnetosphere. My fundamental two part question is; How would the purely terrestrial evolution of intelligence have been influenced or otherwise related to having or not having a moon, and/or that of our not having or as per having a magnetosphere that's essentially of what's defending our relatively thin remainder of an atmosphere? Part two of the above question; Excluding the basic intelligence worth of survival that's proven as often a whole lot smarter than what many humans seem to have at their disposal, what if anything does human intellectual intelligence of rational/irrational thought (including our learned and thus cultivated bigotry, greed and arrogance) have to do with planetology or that of various orbital mechanics? PLANETARY SCIENCE: HISTORY OF EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE / as published in Nature and ScienceWeek http://scienceweek.com/2003/sc031017-1.htm Perhaps this should have been entitled: Dare to think outside the box is extremely lethal. It should also have addressed the fundamental physics as to what other sorts of glancing impactor could have given enough rotational energy to have initially started the outer surface rotating as different than our molten interior, thus giving us the active magnetosphere to start with. Clearly our thinking has been primarily limited or rather sequestered by way of whatever our spendy mainstream infomercial-science has to guide us by, whereas our NASA and thereby mostly religious faith approved Mars impactor notion has been their all-knowing and apparently the one and only viable alternative, that's sufficiently similar to the Alen Guth BIG-BANG theory that's very compatible with the pro-intelligent/creation and thus within the pro-faith realm of God, that is unless you wouldn't mind losing all credibility and most likely your job plus seeing your entire career and of everything associated going down the nearest space-toilet, at least that's how insecure and/or immoral most religious cults and of their political partnerships have managed in the past, and of how they would still most likely deal with such fools that would suggest anything that wasn't pre-approved and thus certified by way of God's pagan replacement(NASA). At least that's my honest impression as based upon this anti-think-tank of a naysay Usenet from hell, that which has no apparent intentions of their cutting the rest of us any slack. - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

Otherwise, your calling a continuous application of an extra 254 gigajoules per second or merely 914 tj/hr of recession energy as being so much less impressive than a few wussy milliseconds worth of a lighting strike, is certainly a new and improved mainstream weird as all get out science, and so much more so impressive if those lighting storms are overtaking the continuous 2e20 joules/sec of what the entire lunar orbital worth of energy has to offer, as representing the sort of wag-thy-dogs to death of what your superior conditional laws of physics as extracted from whatever's scripted within your NASA koran, as supposedly representing the orbital mechanics of our moon as being something that's so gosh darn insignificant. Silly me, I honestly didn't know that 2e20 joules/sec of a continuous applied force was so gosh darn wussy by our NASA's "so what's the difference" policy of infomercial-science standards. I'll be sure to past that one along, so that other Village idiots don't mistake such big numbers as having any meaning whatsoever. I can't speak for others, but I must say that your new and improved form of topic naysayism on a stick is all together a whole lot more impressive than any houcs-pocus BIG-BANG, or even that of our rad-hard astronauts merely walking upon our naked anticathode lethal moon. Perhaps you can explain to us how a nearly 30% inert GLOW rocket can manage to deploy it's nearly 50 tonne payload into orbiting our moon, having done so within such a short amount of travel time and thereby having accomplished each of those round trip NASA/Apollo missions with merely a 60:1 ratio worth of rocket per payload. I'm certainly impressed as all get out, as is Russia, India, ESA and China, and so why the heck should you not continue as to impress us some more? - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

A few terajoules is NOT a horrific amount of energy. Try thunderstorms. I've taken your advice and learned a little something of terrestrial thunder storm energy. http://www.thenakedscientists.com/HT...ithcolumn5.htm "At any time there are over 2,000 thunderstorms occurring worldwide, each producing over a 100 lightning strikes a second. That's over 8 million lightning bolts every day." "Each lightning flash is about 3 miles long but only about a centimetre wide. It discharges about 1-10 billion joules of energy" His own math seems sufficiently conservative, but we certainly get the idea that an average lightning strike is perhaps worthy of 2e9 joules. If using his slight under-estimate of merely 8 million strikes per day is 8e6 * 2e9 = 16e15 joules/day or upon average 185e9 joules/second worth of terrestrial lightning energy that's getting discharged at any moment, and along with our rapidly failing magnetosphere by a factor of 0.05%/year means that lots more of such solar wind driven atmospheric energy discharges are likely to transpire, and I guess that's a good sort of thing as scripted within your NASA infomercial-science based koran. I guess it's also a darn good thing our moon has that stealth hocus-pocus shield that's so much better off than our magnetosphere, whereas otherwise those moonsuit fools would be in serious trouble, as in TBI(total body irradiated) plus solar and cosmic charged particles worth of River City sort of trouble, and of their being rather nicely exposed to such nifty gamma, X-rays and otherwise in direct touch with being highly electrostatic covered while trekking through tens of meters worth of absolutely dry and thereby fluffy element depths of local basalt plus meteorite moon-dust that's rather carbon/graphite sooty, iron, titanium and perhaps even a little radium and cobalt like dark and nasty, as well as still a touch salty and not all that likely to clump, not to mention their getting rather nicely double IR roasted by day and continually blind sided by whatever items passing by 36+ km/s, plus somehow dodging those nasty bits of incoming debris or that of their unavoidable secondary shards. Now then, 185e9 joules is I believe a touch less impressive than 2e20 joules, and it's even less than the 254e9 joules of extra recession energy that's involved with the ongoing exit of our moon, that which can be measured without having to involve any stinking retroreflectors that supposedly at best offers all of 3 wussy photons per minute out of trillions per laser ranging effort. Actually, other than an efficient IR laser bounce, radar/radio ranging is so much easier and more reliable, especially if known amounts of specific wavelength elements were ever deployed from orbit and having subsequently survived hitting that dusty deck. - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

Why would one not use pounds to measure a force? So what's the difference? Why would one not better use the universal joules of energy to represent whatever pounds or kg worth of force(Kgf)? Is energy all that different on our moon, or is it entirely different yet while on Venus? Do you have some better numbers of whatever all-inclusive pounds or Kg of force exist between Earth and our moon? - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

I convert whatever I want in order to suit my dyslexic mindset. If I'm ultimately after the potential extraction of energy, in which case I'll convert whatever's the available N, kgf or pounds of force into joules because I can.

Euh, firstly gravity isn't measured in pounds or tonnes Why would one not use pounds to measure a force? An old unit of force indeed was Kiloponds (i.e. the force of one kilogram of mass at normal gravity), which is kind of misleading in regions that don't have standard gravity, e.g. the earth-moon system. Anyway, the moon's centripetal force is of course GmM/r^2 and its binding energy is about -1/2 gmM/r, with r being about 4*10^8 m and GmM being about 3*10^37 Jm, iaW the moon's binding energy is a few thousend yottajoules (had to look up that prefix, never used anything bigger then exa- ).
