What if the worlds mineral deposits are the remnants...

of a previous super-advanced world, potentially billions of years ago.

Shut up

[fandandy 3,311]

You and I are the only ones in the thread.

How does that make you feel?

[Cloaca du jour 2,064]

Well...scientifically...look how far we have come in say the last 100yrs.

Mysteries like pyramids that we cannot build today with all our advances and heavy equipment. 

Its reasonable to think there have been more advanced civilizations..

pretty sure they are the remnants of millions of years of micro organism death from oxygen exposure, well, iron is at least

I just have to correct this obvious incorrect statement. Scientists are not quite sure where the earths iron come from, however there are many good articles out there. Microorgamisms are unable to perform fusion, so it is unlikely that they would have formed the iron.

 

 

Explanation:

Iron is made inside stars, specifically red super-giants. The elements form together inside a star during fusion. When the supernova occurs, the iron fragments are blasted into the space.

This is how Iron came to Earth millions of years ago. You can see the image below of a 20 Solar Mass(Mo) star.

The research, published in Nature Communications on Feb. 20, opens the door for other competing theories about why the Earth, relative to other planets, has higher levels of heavy iron isotopes. Among them: light iron isotopes may have been vaporized into space by a large impact with another planet that formed the moon; the slow churning of the mantle as it makes and recycles the Earth's crust may preferentially incorporate heavy iron into rock; or, the composition of the raw material that formed the planet in its earliest days may have been enriched with heavy iron.

Who's alias are you? I mean not one creates an ID 17 years ago and makes his 1st post 16 years later. I did he same over at antifaguys. Created multiple IDs when 1st started so that when banned, I would just fire up the next one.

I think it's MIke.

all of the heavy elements were created when a previous star existed.  it probably was unstable and lasted a few million years.  then it exploded, creating the heavy elements and a new dust cloud that formed our current system.  its like when i exploded in your mom and made a huge mess.

It took the universe 3 generations of stars to create the elements that are needed to create life.

Such deep thots. What if the moon were made of green cheese and cows could jump over it?

[supermike80 1,285]

Yup.  Love knowing that when you see gold you can be sure it had to come from a supernova.    Thats pretty cool to me

The moon is disgusting, it’s made of cheese.

Then it would be a cosmic Kardashian. Athletes, cows...Anyone can jump them.

Odd that science tends to refute your attempt at pompous knowledge...

I apologize, we were talking about two different things, formation verse distribution.

I should be less of an a$shole on the internet. Propping myself up by putting other people down only makes me look bad. Nobody likes a jerk.
