  • What If The Earth Turned To Gold? - The Mornin' Cup

    Midascoplaypse - the tale of the earth turning into gold,

    more about the subject here ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB_GWz25B3Q

    the story of Midus - everything he touched turned to gold,

    An atom of gold 79 protons 118 neutrons, - no rust, shiny bendy, if gold atoms are packed too dense they will rest assured implode,

    what if the earth turned into gold, tiny atomic-scale gaps, the gravitational forces will shrink and compress the earth to 2/3 its actual size - in 10 mins everything will shrink down - dropping everything to the new surface at 30,000km/hr -  the compression forces make the core super hot -  the surface temp turns into 1000 c everything on the surface is turned into plasma everything is done for, and the new tiny ball of gold is all that's left after years of cooling off,

    the sheer essence of everything turning into gold will make the gravitational forces immense even if its a sweet spot wherein the molecules remain with the same physical properties but just turn into gold instead,

    basically as important as gold is for the basic human mind it goes to show that if all things turned to gold including our own planet it would be just a matter of time before everything and anything that once held immense value no longer means anything to the ones that survived this by no means is possible but as a thought exercise should help put things in context.

    The actual math is done by the best in the game https://sites.google.com/view/sourcesgoldapocalypse/

  • Did lightning kickstart life on earth?! – The Mornin’ Cup

    one of the key ingredients needed for life is phosphorous and the multitude of lightning strikes that happened when the earth was 4 billion years old may have unlocked the necessary amount of phosphorous to create the foundation of life itself,  but when life on the earth began 3.5-4.5 billion years ago fewer meteorites were impacting the earth, fulgurite is the glass that is formed when lightning strikes the ground, the dept of earth and planetary sciences states. on the earth, could have resulted in 1 quintillion lighting strikes and a whole lot of phosphorus thereby kick-starting life,,  long been thought that meteorites crashing into the earth have been known to contain schreibersite a phosphorus mineral that can dissolve in water, with enough of these crashes it could mean just the right amount of phosphorus to kickstart life,  but when life on the earth began 3.5-4.5 billion years ago fewer meteorites were impacting the earth, fulgurite is the glass that is formed when lightning strikes the ground,  Fulgurite has been found to contain phosphorus released from surface rocks and this phosphorus is soluble.


      lighting does not diminish through time as it is formed on the earth itself whereas the meteors do diminish being that it stands as a rare occurrence when one big enough and rich enough in just the right minerals crashes on the earth,  this is also the primary consideration for life forming on Earth-like planets when meteor impacts become rare, The study stated that on the earth today we experience about 560million lightning flashes per year and on earth, earlier that number was about 1-5 billion with a 100million to 1 billion striking the ground, over a billion years of this could have resulted in 1 quintillion lighting strikes and a whole lot of phosphorus thereby kick-starting life, early earth had more c02 and thereby the atmosphere was warming as co2 contributes to global temperatures, higher temp means more frequent and intense thunderstorms, a significant rise in co2 levels is said to have been when a  Mars-sized object crashed into the earth and creating the moon as an aftereffect of the impact some 4.5 billion years ago, this  impact also released a lot of co2 from inside the earth's surface which became trapped in the atmosphere of the earth and led to more lightning,  The study also stated that Understanding the role of lightning strikes as a way of creating usable phosphorous has implications in the search for life beyond Earth. 


    "Our findings are likely applicable to any planet which has an atmosphere that generates lightning. So long as a planet has a significant amount of lightning, it would have a source of phosphorus needed for the emergence of life," Hess said.  Phosphorus is needed in the molecules that form the basic cell structures, cell membranes and even makes up the phosphate backbone of DNA, RNA a study from the yale university dept of earth and planetary sciences states.on the earth, could have resulted in 1 quintillion lighting strikes and a whole lot of phosphorus thereby kick-starting life,,

  • Threats To Humanity : Tsunami - The Mornin Cup

    are walls the answer?? japan build more than 400km of walls across the coastline but it is ripping apart communities that might rely on the sea for their daily livelihoods for decades and are now crippled by the fact that what was once built to save them is now the only thing that is keeping them at bay, the seawall is by no means the greatest thing for them to secure a good safety measure, 2011 -18.5k people dead, 560sqkmof land lost, waves 15m high wiped away everything, the seawall was useless.

    17b dollars being spent on the seawall in japan, can walls save lives?

    25m deep foundation

    seawalls won't be able to hold back all tsunami's low-end waves, yes but stronger waves might not be able to be of any help, but the seawalls are meant to be functional even though they are submerged but now will they help,

    at 63m the deepest foundation ever, the seawall at the port of japan in kamaishi is one for the ages and is also mentioned in the Guinness book of records but does it help.. the 2011 tsunami broke off the breakwater - the conclusion is the fact that breakwater helped a lot by earning time, 13m height was dropped to 8m and a total time of 6m was earned for evac,, so parts of the breakwater were rebuilt at 6m cost value attached to it.

  • A Call For World Peace - The Mornin' Cup

    A landmark moment for peace throughout the world as,

    The Pope has arrived in Iraq for a historic weekend visit which carries both symbolism and risk.

    With a message of inter-faith tolerance, Francis will spend four days in Iraq in what is his first foreign trip in more than a year and the first-ever papal pilgrimage to the war-hit nation.

    A red carpet was rolled out at Baghdad International Airport with prime minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi on hand to greet the pontiff.

    The Pope has since been welcomed to Iraq's presidential palace by the country's president Barham Salih.

    The Pope will also visit the holy city of Najaf in the south, the ancient birthplace of Abraham at Ur and Mosul in the north,

    which became the capital of the so-called Islamic State (IS) in 2014 until its defeat in 2017.

    "I am coming as a pilgrim, as a penitent pilgrim, to implore from the Lord forgiveness and reconciliation after years of war and terrorism, to beg from God the consolation of hearts and the healing of wounds."

    the Pope will hold a vigil in Hosh al Bieaa (Church Square) where he will pray for the victims of war.

    He will then head east to the town of Qaraqosh for a Sunday service of prayer and remembrance at the Immaculate Conception Church.

    The church was one particular focus for the Islamic State's widespread barbarism.

    IS followers used the church courtyard as a firing range. Furniture, statues, bibles, and prayer books were also burnt in the courtyard and a black mark on the ground marks the spot where the desecration took place.

    Before the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq, an estimated 1.5 million Christians lived in the country.

    Today, only about 200,000 remain, the rest have been driven out by sectarian violence.

    Among the most symbolic moments will be a meeting with Grand Ayatollah Ali al Sistani, the spiritual leader for millions of Shia Muslims and one of the world's most influential Islamic scholars.

    The two elderly men - the Pope is 84 and the Grand Ayatollah is 90 - will pray together in the holy city of Najaf. It is thought to be the first-ever encounter between a pope and an Iraqi grand ayatollah.

    Stay tuned to this space for all your daily updates!
