12,000 Year Solar Catastrophe Cycle

Every 12,000 years, the Earth experiences a global catastrophe caused by the motion of the solar system through the Milky Way galaxy. This crosses the galactic current sheet, increasing impacts on Earth and causing massive flooding and waves. When the Sun's heat is trapped by dust in the solar system, it causes a "micronova" where the Sun's outer layer violently sheds. This blows dust away while incinerating one side of Earth. The oceans flash to vapor, saturating the atmosphere and causing flooding, deluge, and instant ice ages as the water falls back. Rare isotopes found in flood deposits are explained by this nearby event, just 8 light minutes away, rather than distant supernovae. Civilization

The 12,000 Year Cycle

By Dean Hopkins

About every 12,000 years the Earth


experiences a global catastrophe. From the
geological record some of the elements of
this catastrophe are (i) An increase of
impact events, (ii) Massive flooding, deluge
and/or great waves, (iii) rare isotopes in the
flood/wave deposits.
It is unclear what is causing the confluence
of these three seemingly unrelated factors.
One model that is gaining support is the
motion of the solar system in its orbit
around the Milky Way Galaxy crosses the
galactic current sheet. The galactic current
sheet gathers gasses, dust and larger
chunks, like a ‘Swiffer Duster’.
This increases the odds of an impact with
a big chunk! (i) an increase in impact events,
and some of these events can cause (ii)
great waves, with the resulting far inland
mega tsunami deposits.
More subtly, blanketing the inner solar
system with dust is much like a cloudy night
keeping the land warmer than a clear night.
Only unlike the Sun, the land isn’t trying to
pour massive amounts of freshly generated
heat into the universe! The Sun’s heat no
longer has a clear path to escape. This
causes reflected radiation heating of the
Sun’s surface.
Extra heat has to go somewhere. The
result is being called a ‘micronova’ when the
sun ‘boils over’. This is not a full-up star
destroying nova, but a violent shedding of
the Sun’s outer layer. This blows the dust
out of the center of the solar system, and
pretty much incinerates the Sun facing side
of the earth. The surfaces of the oceans
facing the Sun at that moment flash into an
amazingly large amount of water is vapor
saturating the atmosphere, where it chills to
ice and water, which falls back to Earth
causing (ii) Massive flooding, deluge, and
where it falls as snow, an instant ice age,
explaining how it is possible for a mastodon
with a mouth full of summer plants can be
frozen where it stands.
That leaves (iii) rare isotopes in the
flood/wave deposits. Those are classically
explained as remains of nearby supernova.
The problem is that even the closest nearby
supernovae are so far away that the
isotopes would have long since decayed
away. The event that generated them wasn’t
hundreds of light years away, it was only
eight light minutes away!
Half the Earth broiled and saturated with
solar x-rays, the other half subject to
blizzards, and floods. That’s not even the
bad news.
The bad news is the associated induced
currents will wipe out power grids and fry
semiconductors world-wide.
No internet, no lights, no pumped water,
no computer controlled generators,
inverters, no cars, no trucks. No re-supply of
grocery stores. No way for any government
to give orders farther than a shout can
carry. Civilization collapses, all civilization,
not just technological civilization.
This Solar disaster happens about every
12,000 years…
…the last one, the Gothenburg event, was
about 12,000 years ago.
