others, an attempt has been made to bring astronomers back to some variation of the nebular (gas cloud) hypothesis. Their efforts have been surprisingly successful, in spite of the obvious physical principle that gas in outer space (as well as here on earth) never coagulates; it always spreads outward. Let us consider some of the major reasons the various theories of the origin of our solar system are more foolishness than fact. 1-Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and the eighth largest.

are multiple conditions that are necessary for they’re to be life on Earth such as the ones listed below: * Distance away from the Sun: This controls the amount of insolation on Earth, so therefor the temperature and the presence of liquid water (the Earth is 150’000’000 km away from the Sun). Another factor that is determined by the distance away from the sun is the length of the year; if a planet takes 30,687 Earth days for a year to pass (like Uranus) it will have an effect on how long

1. Schumann discovered Schumann resonance. He discovered how the Earth produces a fixed frequency of 7.83 Hz. Dr. Ankermueller stumbled upon the book which Schumann resonance was recorded in. Together Ankermueller, one of his students and Schumann made the connection of how human resonance(alpha waves) is almost exactly the same as the Earth's resonance(Schumann resonance). Meaning that we and most if not all life on Earth is in tune with the frequency of the planet. 2. They found that the students
