Technically they are not considered terrestial.

Tektites are glassy objects that are thought by most scientists today to be melt products of terrestrial rocks formed by hypervelocity impacts of large, extraterrestrial objects. They superficially resemble obsidian in appearance and chemical composition; however, several things distinguish these objects from obsidian. Primarily, they have a very low water content, a low alkali content, and they always contain lechatelierite (pure silica glass).They also often contain coesite (a highly dense silica polymorph), nickel-iron spherules, and baddeleyite (a zircon oxide mineral produced at very high temperatures during shock metamorphism), which lend evidence to a meteorite impact origin. Relict mineral inclusions often yield information about the tektite parent material.

How did you figure out that they are not Terrestrial!! this information supports what I am saying. May I just inform you that your not dealing with some random guy, I'm a geologist, and I've actually studied metorites and lunar rocks bought back from the Apollo missions. I will post some pictures if you want!!


Yes they are chemically diffrent from obsidian, but after being formed so rapidyl and violently when the meteor impacts the ground that it is normal for them to have "pure" chemistry. When the meteor impacts the ground the extreme heat and pressure in this instance, will cause the flash melt to interact with atmospheric gases, the material of the meteorite, and the rocks they impact, which are very unlikely to be pure granite; the metoer is likely to impact through several layers of diffrent rocks, ranging from sedimentary fill to the granitic basement rocks. Therefore the tecktite is liable to be a chemical mixture of various things and not "pure obsidian".

I cannot believe that you seriousy think their is glass in the atmosphere. Have you ever considered that your wrong?? Don't go and tell me I'm wrong, the evidence against what you think is very very substantial.

Hey Steve, can you share your theory on;
1) how the glass got up there


I've proven that the glass is up there.

How it got there? Not exactly sure, but the first place I'd look for the answer is in Scripture.

In Job 37:18, Elihu compares the sky to being strong as molten looking glass. He asks Job if Job, with God stretched out the sky.
So I believe it originated from above and was at one time smaller in circumference.

In Psalm 104:9 the psalmist declares that God has set a bound after the flood, which prevents the ocean waves from covering the continents again. This Hebrew root word "bound" is used also in Jeremiah 5:22, when God says he placed the "sand of the sea" as a bound. He doesn't mean the sand from the ocean beaches, he is using clandestine language to describe the glass up in the sky.

So, my theory is that during or soon after the flood, large amounts of pure silica came gushing down along with the water from above.(There is a sea above the celestial sphere). Somehow, they formulated into glass.

If you look at Genesis 9:13, God says the rainbow would be a token(sign) to us that he would never flood the earth again. Well, this is a "scientific" token, not just a figurative one. The glass caused the rainbow. The glass compresses air down beneath and literally keep the water at bay. The moon and sun act as pressure relievers and actually block air pressure beneath them causing tides. Make sense yet? Surface tension of water acts as a resistance to the force of air pressure. The high densities of each(air pressure and surface tension) meet together.

2) what keeps it up there


It is evenly balanced throughout the earth by air beneath.

3) how it was made


see above.

The info, any info on tekties cannot disprove it came from above. You just refuse to believe there is glass up there. It is much easier to believe tektites cames down from the glass rim due to their pure silica substance, due also to their aero-dynamic shape which implies high velocity more easily explained by a long trek. The notion that they don't have similar characteristis to meteroites, their lack of cosmic ray exposure, only support, not refute my theory that they are not of the ground(terrestrial) and as well are not of inner space(extra-terrestrial); they are IN BETWEEN.

Posts as many pics as you like, they do not relate. I don't think you get it yet.

I think the phrase "straining a gnat and swallowing a camel is appropo.
Use your eyes, man! Look up at the beautiful anomolies caused by glass.

Oh, like the evidence I presented in this thread? Yes, I seriously believe there is glass up there. Once I became convinced, I never doubted.

It seems I struck a nerve with you, RH. Please try to be objective about this, ok?

maybe if we all pitch in some money, we can put this debate and the moon hoax debate to a close by checking it out with our own eyes....

A new venture, drawing upon a Canadian retooling of 60-year-old rocket technology and fresh funding from a former backer of Russia's Mir space station, on Tuesday announced plans to start launching paying passengers into outer space by mid-2007.
The new company, called PlanetSpace, is a 50-50 venture involving Canadian Arrow, one of last year's leading contenders in the X Prize space race, and Chirinjeev Kathuria, an Indian-American entrepreneur who put millions of dollars into an effort to extend Mir's life five years ago. PlanetSpace's plans were detailed Tuesday at Canadian Arrow's space center in London, Ontario
