Earthcrust displacement
Under the Icecrust of Antarctica, under a thick layer of ice, sweet-water lakes are found, well over 10*C. Warm. This has effect on the glaciers. They are gliding towards the sea. Under extreme sterile conditions, Russian scientists are trying to get some of that water to the surface (Lake Vostok). Maybe there is life? Anyway, this is “ancient” water and it contains information about the climate conditions, when these lakes were formed and subsequently froze over.
Antarctica used to be an island, with a mediocre climate. Fossilized trees and even palmleaves have been found. This situation suddenly changed. This happened all quite suddenly and whole woods were frozen in a short period.
The same happened in Siberia. In the taiga, the arctic part of Russia, time after time carcasses of woolly mammoths are found.
The beasts are very well preserved and it is told, that the Russian explorers fed the mammoth-meat to their dogs. Some of the finds ended up in a museum. Here the stomach-contents of these extinct elephants were researched. Plants and flowers were discovered, sometimes still in their mouth, that grew in a nicely warm climate and that the catastrophic climate change happened and in very short period of time.
Like in Antarctica, the climate-conditions changed over night.The mammoths (and other wildlife, maybe humans) almost instantly froze to death.
How come? Some speculated that solar flairs caused the extinction and changed earth's climate dramatically. Was this the result of a polar shift? The findings needed a theory and it was a scholar called Hapgood, that delivered a possible answer.
It was accepted theory, first proposed by Wegener, that differnt earth-masses drifted on the earth's core, which was liquid (molten iron). Because of the spinning of the earth and sea-currents these different “plates” push against each-other. At these places earthquakes happen regularly and you find most of our volcanoes on these “vaultlines”. These are potentially danger zones. (f.i. The Ring of Fire, around the Pacific).
Hapgood suggested that big landmasses suddenly could be put into motion. He called it “Earthcrust displacement”. Whole area could slide into another climatic zone. Albert Einstein supported Hapgood, but if this displacement happened, the way Hapgood suggest is uncertain. What causes earthcrust displacement on a giant scale, we don't know (an asteroid impact or the collision with a renegade planet). But despite the uncertainties, Hapgood's theory is added to the list of doomsday scenarios, which are prophesied for the nearby future.
