Are they sure that it wasn’t an Alien Mother Ship?

My sediments exactly.

Noah?...................

Paging Noah!

Noah, you have a call on Line 1.

a tsunami at least 600 feet high

This is an old article and actually is covered in an episode of “The Universe” “When Space Changed History”.

I actually know one of the members of the Holocene Impact Working Group(no names..respecting her privacy). Her sister worked for me, and, I got to meet her when she gave a talk on Tunguska locally. VERY nice person.

Instead of once in 500,000 to one million years, as astronomers now calculate, catastrophic impacts could happen every 1,000 years.

I think I might hold-off on a new roof for the house, then.

So the Black Sea flooding because of Ice Age melt, as the Noah trigger, may have had this as the pre-trigger.

According to the article there are 275 flood catastrophe myths. Many mention a solar eclipse, which pinpoints the event to May 10, 2807 BC, or so.

If you get a chance to see the recent Noah movie, don’t bother.

Interesting with what wasn’t mentioned, super tsunamis caused by underwater rock collapses. Of course it is discounted because the sediments they displaced wouldn’t be rich in cosmic metals. *Unless* those deposits were already there, and were displaced by the tsunami.

IF planets are actually hollow it would explain a lot of things. How civilizations survive such impacts, for one. Where “Eden” is, for another. Why we can’t find high tech radiation traces in the solar system, let alone from other stars...

Where lost socks go... where new wire coathangers come from... the real source of velcro...

So, the rate of the planet getting hit is higher than thought.
