Hi folks,
I was recently on another forum and, I happened to stumble on a post regarding our Orbital Galactic Oscillations thru our Galactic plane.
The theory implies that when we enter the Galactic Plane in 2012, we will expierence a gravitational tsunami, another Doomsday scenario!
one theory that I heard is that the gravitational effects on our Oort cloud and K belt systems will send objects careening into our solar system and wreaking havoc on Planet Earth.
The way I see it, this whole galactic tsunami theory, and I emphasize THEORY,
Is purely Hypothetical in general and, more sensationalism than anything else.
Why do I say this?
The Earth has oscillated thru our Galactic plane since life first took hold on our planet, the Paleo record also speaks for itself, If this supposedly Doomsday Tsunami is a fact, then we would see a lot of evidence in the Paleological record or, Geological record from all the past times we entered the galactic plane.
So in other words we should see mass extinction events or major Geologic changes that are timed with every cycle of galactic oscillation
while the theory of gravitational perturbations to our Oort Cloud or the K
Belt, while we enter the galactic plane, in my mind does seem to hold merit, the mass extinction events that this Theory implies has not been proven by a direct connection with the Paleo or, Geological record
any thoughts out there concerning this Scenario?
