NASA Research Proves Earth is NOT Expanding

Since Charles Darwin's time, scientists have speculated that the solid Earth might be expanding or contracting. That was the prevailing belief, until scientists developed the theory of plate tectonics, which explained the large-scale motions of Earth's lithosphere, or outermost shell. Even with the acceptance of plate tectonics half a century ago, some Earth and space scientists have continued to speculate on Earth's possible expansion or contraction on various scientific grounds.

Now a new NASA study, published recently in Geophysical Research Letters, has essentially laid those speculations to rest. Using a cadre of space measurement tools and a new data calculation technique, the team detected no statistically significant expansion of the solid Earth.

There was also another interesting report which, by itself ought have put the EE idea firmly to bed, and that is that

An international team of researchers has found the strongest evidence yet that parts of North America and Antarctica were connected 1.1 billion years ago, long before the supercontinent Pangaea formed.

Though I'm sure none of that will bother Neal Adams' acolytes

Since when has our home been "expanding"?


I trust the modern day scientist that have studied the last 500 years (as in been here to do so) about this far: [___].

Yep not far at all....

i dont believe a spec of what NASA says, dont forget they have the power of disinformation. NASA = government = corruption you make the math.

Already posted here. And in fact they have proven the Earth is expanding, just at a very slow rate.

As pointed above, this topic is already under discussion here.
