Look at the damage to Mars surface. It is obvious very very large objects have smashed through our solar system in the past.
Of course we will never know and as you agree must be left to interpretation based on evidence and hypothesis. Their creation myth could go a long way to explaining a few things about our earth, our moon and various other aspects. The only question: How did they come by this information?
I can't believe we are having this discussion on GFY...  |
Well, I searched around in google looking for the source of the story on "gaga" and then funny enough it turned out to be the "Enuma Elish" which I actually have at home in a book. I never knew anything about that story supposedly containing astronomical events though. i just had it in a book with the Epic of Gilgamesh - which I always thought more interesting.
Have you heard of "Eris" yet? it was discovered less than a decade ago in our solar system and is a fair bit larger than Pluto and about 3x further out.
