Whilst investigating Earth’s early timeline we discovered a potential correlation between catastrophic events – Impact craters and massive volcanic eruptions (large Igneous Provinces) – and both life radiations (explosions of life) and mass extinction events. This new journey begins with ‘impact’ craters and the hypothesis that rather than being caused by random asteroids/meteorites they are instead formed by coordinated electro-magnetic discharges as part of our originator mechanism. Following this we move through Large Igneous Provinces and the geological record and conclude with an evidence based proof of concept.
