(OT) What Exactly Is Under The Sea?
Article at, http://wired.com/news/technology/0
Only about ten percent of what is under the Sea(s) is charted and some of the maps are old and outdated and some Countries don't share information about what is under the Sea(s) That is why USS San Francisco ran into that Seamount last month. cuhulin |
Crust, and mantle.

And according to Richard Sauder,PHD. www.sauderzone.com Perhaps some
man made underwater bases too. cuhulin |
I don't usually stay awake after midnight,but sometimes Art Bell and
George Noory do have some Guest speakers on there who do talk about things that do make sense.Art Bell is a Ham Radio Operator and he is a good guy too.He once loaned Roger Fredinburg (www.regularguy.com) some radio equipment,free of charge,so that Roger could get back on the air.I sure don't call that being a kook.I believe Art Bell and George Noory know most that stuff those kooks phone in about is phoney baloney,but Hey,they are laughing all the way to the bank. cuhulin |

And if you keep going there is a hot core and then China on the other side. -- Telamon Ventura, California I thought the antipode of Ventura CA was in the Indian Ocean east of Capetown South Africa Gotta dig straight - hi hi Just FYI Take the latitude of the place you want to find the antipode of and convert it to the opposite hemisphere. For example, we'll use Memphis. Memphis is located at approximately 35° North latitude. The antipode of Memphis will be at 35° South latitude. Then, take the longitude of the place you want to find the antipode of and subtract the longitude from 180. Antipodes are always 180° of longitude away. Memphis is located at approximately 90° West longitude so we take 180-90=90. This new 90° we convert to degrees East and we have our location of Memphis' antipode - 35°S 90°E - in the Indian Ocean far to the west of Australia. -- Caveat Lector (Reader Beware) Help The New Hams Someone Helped You Or did You Forget That ? |
I heard on my radio this morning there was an Earthquake about 47 miles
North of Memphis over in Arkansas.Best not to do any digging just now. cuhulin |
JT and Dave www.supertalkms.com (Program Lineup thingy) said the
Earthquake was a 4.2 centered about 4 miles East of Caraway,Arkansas. cuhulin |
Twas a 4.1 magnitude earthquake 45 miles NNW of Memphis, Tennessee and
20 miles WSW of Blytheville, Arkansas see URL: http://neic.usgs.gov/neis/bulletin/neic_uian.html -- Caveat Lector (Reader Beware) Help The New Hams Someone Helped You Or did You Forget That ? wrote in message ...

We're still waiting for the big one!, which may come one of these days. There was a 7+ in that area in the early 1800's. I've been in a few light earthquakes over the years in this area. The best was down in Indiana when I was a kid. dxAce Michigan USA |

We're still waiting for the big one!, which may come one of these days. There was a 7+ in that area in the early 1800's. Actually, there were three major quakes an many aftershocks, and they were in the 8 range. Among them are three earthquakes that occurred in 1811 and 1812 near New Madrid, MO. They are among the Great earthquakes of known history, affecting the topography more than any other earthquake on the North American continent. Judging from their effects, they were of a magnitude of 8.0 or higher on the Richter Scale. They were felt over the entire United States outside of the Pacific coast. Large areas sank into the earth, new lakes were formed, the course of the Mississippi River was changed, and forests were destroyed over an area of 150,000 acres. Many houses at New Madrid were thrown down. "Houses, gardens, and fields were swallowed up" one source notes. But fatalities and damage were low, because the area was sparsely settled then. |
