HPT 101: Lesson 9: Volcanoes and Sea mounts
ellenjmchenry2021-04-18T18:38:38-04:00This drawing shows the famous Krakatoa eruption of 1883. In this lesson we'll compare the sizes of volcanic eruptions throughout history. We will also look at sea mounts and submarine canyons and think about how they may have formed. **************************** VIDEOS: Before we begin, watch these short videos. This is what people...
HPT 101: Lesson 8: Ocean Trenches
ellenjmchenry2021-03-09T20:01:05-05:00In this lesson we learn the standard explanation for the ocean trenches (and the many problems with this explanation) then we learn the HPT explanation. **************************** VIDEOS: Video 8A: Where are the trenches? A 12-minute tour around the globe using Google Earth. Video 8B: Standard theory of trenches and the problems with subduction (51...
HPT 101: Lesson 7: The Grand Canyon
ellenjmchenry2021-02-15T23:09:33-05:00Did the Colorado River cut the Grand Canyon? This idea has been popular over the past century or so, but as we will see, it is fairly easily disproved. We'll discover a much better theory, which explains not only the canyon but also many other geological features in this...
HPT 101: Lesson 6: The Origin of Limestone
ellenjmchenry2021-01-27T10:56:05-05:00In this lesson we wonder how there can be so much limestone across the planet and we see how a simple chemical equation (not to mention common sense) disproves what most geology books teach about limestone. **************************** VIDEOS: Video 6A: Stuff you need to know before watching 6B (32 min.) Here is the...
HPT 101: Lesson 5: The Compression Event
ellenjmchenry2021-01-25T13:23:12-05:00In this lesson, we learn about the sliding of the continental plates at the end of the Flood phase, which we call the Compression Event. During this event we see massive sliding, cracking, and folding of the plates, plus the melting of the inner earth and the creation of...
HPT 101: Lesson 4: Liquefaction
ellenjmchenry2021-01-25T15:03:21-05:00In this lesson, we learn about sedimentation and introduce liquefaction, and see how these mechanisms could have produced the layers strata we see in the "geological record." **************************** VIDEOS: Video 4A: Water flow and water hammers (23 min) Here is the template page you will need to print out: HPT101 Video 4A template...
HPT 101: Lesson 3: Overview and Rupture Phase
ellenjmchenry2021-01-23T19:56:44-05:00In this lesson, we define scientific terms, look at an overview chart, and then study the rupture phase. **************************** VIDEOS: Video 3A: Mechanical engineering terms you will need to know (26 min) Here is the template page you will need to print out: HPT101 Video 3A template page Video 3B: An Overview Chart (23...
HPT 101: Lesson 2: Supercritical Water
ellenjmchenry2021-01-23T19:57:30-05:00In this lesson, we will learn facts about "supercritical water" and then make inferences about what it would have done to granite in the "Great Deep." *************************** VIDEOS: Video 2A: Water and its three basic phases (19 min) This video reviews basic information about water molecules and three phases of matter: solid, liquid...
HPT101: Lesson 1: Initial conditions
ellenjmchenry2021-01-23T19:58:31-05:00In this lesson, we will cover the first half of the chapter titled "The Hydroplate Theory; An Overview." ******************************************************* VIDEOS: VIDEO 1A: Evidence requiring an explanation (28 min.) PAGE YOU WILL NEED FOR THIS VIDEO: Choose either the pre-labeled version which doesn't require any writing ("Evidence requiring an explanation, with labels") or the version...
