6,500 years, a major disaster on the scale of the Biblical &#8216;Great Flood&#8217; strikes the Earth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">While experts debate the exact date of that flood in the Book of Genesis, Thomas asserts that it happened roughly 6,500 years ago, and there is some archaeological and geological evidence to support that claim.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">By that logic, Thomas argues that the next catastrophe is imminent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">As for what the end of the world will look like, Thomas believes that Earth&#8217;s magnetic field will suddenly, drastically shift, wreaking havoc across the planet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The reason behind the book was classified remains unclear, but some have suggested the agency

But this date is contested<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;That is totally bogus. If that&#8217;s what happened every 6,500 years, we would certainly see it; it would be in all the records&#8230; The amount of energy to bring that about is tremendous. And you know, there&#8217;s nothing to initiate it,&#8217; Mlynczak said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">That said, Earth&#8217;s magnetic poles do shift and have done so hundreds of times throughout the planet&#8217;s history, according to NASA.<\/p>\n<div class=\"floatRHS\">\n<div data-mol-fe-xpmodule-related-story-factbox=\"true\" data-xp-platform=\"mol.web.desktop\" data-xp-channel-color=\"home\" data-track-module=\"related-story-factbox^related-story-factbox-new-research-gives-frightening-glimpse-i\" data-reactroot=\"\">\n<div class=\"textContainer_L8BEBeSX\">\n<h4 class=\"readMore_b5WLEkAS\">Read More<\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"headline_TEL93dS_\"><span class=\"headlineText_tCRNH0ZB\">New research gives frightening glimpse into how Earth will end<\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<p><a class=\"container_V5eJTpXY\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sciencetech\/article-13890681\/New-research-gives-frightening-glimpse-Earth-end.html\" target=\"_self\" data-testid=\"container\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image_HQjDD_In\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/09\/25\/18\/90095069-0-image-a-41_1727284452408.jpg\" alt=\"article image\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">This phenomenon is called a &#8216;pole reversal.&#8217; Paleomagnetic records suggest it occurs about every\u00a0300,000 years on average, though the actual time intervals vary widely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;During a pole reversal, the magnetic field weakens, but it doesn\u2019t completely disappear,&#8217;\u00a0<a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/science-research\/earth-science\/flip-flop-why-variations-in-earths-magnetic-field-arent-causing-todays-climate-change\/#:~:text=Paleomagnetic%20records%20tell%20us%20Earth's,the%20past%20160%20million%20years.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NASA\u00a0<\/a>states.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;The magnetosphere, together with Earth\u2019s atmosphere, continue protecting Earth from cosmic rays and charged solar particles, though there may be a small amount of particulate radiation that makes it down to Earth\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;The magnetic field becomes jumbled, and multiple magnetic poles can emerge in unexpected places.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">But this never causes the kind of widespread devastation that Thomas described in his book.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Even if his theory about why and how the world will end had scientific merit, there would still be reason to question his claim that the apocalypse is imminent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">He states that the last catastrophe of this nature\u00a0\u2014 Noah&#8217;s Biblical flood\u00a0\u2014\u00a0 happened 6,500 years ago, and that this means we&#8217;re due for the next one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">There is some geological and archaeological evidence to suggest that date may be correct. For example, a 2006 study claimed that 6,500-year-old wood recovered from the &#8216;landing site of Noah&#8217;s ark&#8217; was actually part of the ark itself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">But the wood&#8217;s age has been challenged by other experts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The more widely accepted date-range for the flood is between 4,000 and 5,000 years ago. If this event truly occurred during that time, then Thomas&#8217; estimated timing for the end of the world would be more than 1,000 years off.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Therefore, all the evidence suggests that the violent disaster detailed in &#8216;The Adam and Eve Story&#8217; will not actually come to pass.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sciencetech\/article-14297085\/secret-cia-book-adam-eve-story-end-world-theory.html\">https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sciencetech\/article-14297085\/secret-cia-book-adam-eve-story-end-world-theory.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12984","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12984"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12984\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12984"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12984"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12984"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
