Sir,

Subject: Discovery: The rocky plates of the earth are continuously rising. Due to this rising of these rocky plates, earthquakes and tsunami are caused.

Proof:

After the 26-12-2006 earthquake in the island of Sumatra, which gave rise to the tsunami, the island of Simeulue which is at close proximity to Sumatra had risen up to three feet.

Three months later, following that earthquake, on 28-03-2005 there was another earthquake and the island of Simeulue was found to have risen up to six feet. A milder version of tsunami was also experienced at that time. Apart from that, surrounding the island of Simeulue , for about three hundred kilometers, the once submerged sea flora was visible on the surface of the water. The media had given a large coverage with photographs of this phenomenon.

Based on this, I had already stated in my research article published in dailies, that earthquake and tsunami were caused due to the rising of the rocky plates below the island of Simeulue . Now, my discovery has been scientifically proved.

Why do rocky plates rise?

When hot gases and steam are eliminated from the molten rock material inside the earth, rocky plates of lesser density are formed from the molten rock of higher density.

I had explained that as substances with lesser density have the tendency to float on liquids with higher density, the rocky plates with lesser density formed from the molten rock with higher density rose upwards resulting in the rising of the island of Simeulue .


The explanation of researchers for the rising of the island of Simeulue

But, researchers were of a different opinion regarding the rising of the island of Simeulue .

Researchers had explained that India and the continent of Australia are situated on a large rocky plate called the Indo – Australian rocky plate which is moving in the north eastern direction. During the movement of the Indo – Australian rocky plate in this direction, its front edge got inserted below the rocky plate of Burma and this resulted in the 26-12-2004 earthquake and tsunami.

Researchers specifically state that, thirteen crores of years ago India , the continent of Australia and Antarctica were fused together at the South Pole. Later, India and the continent of Australia got detached from the continent of Antarctica and moved towards their present day location.

Researchers had stated that the movement of continents was the result of the separation and movement of the rocky plates below the continents.

At present India and the continent of Australia are situated five thousand kilometers apart!

According to researchers if it has to be believed that, thirteen crores of years ago India, Australia and the continent of Antarctica had been fused together in the South Pole region, and later were separated and are at present at a distance of five thousand kilometers away from each other, definitely these landscapes should have been situated on two different rocky plates.

If it had not been so and had been on a single rocky plate, there is no possibility of them existing five thousand kilometers away from each other.

But unfortunately, there is no scientific evidence to prove that India and the continent of Australia which are at present at a distance of five thousand kilometers away from each other are situated on two different rocky plates.

Picture proof released by NASA

The American Space Research Center NASA, had released a world map showing the epicenters of all the 3,58,214 earthquakes which occurred from the year 1963 to 1998 (Picture – 1) and a map prepared by the researchers of NASA, which was supposed to be the boundaries plates of the continents (Picture – 2).


In that map, it has been recorded that earthquakes had occurred continuously as if a line had been drawn surrounding the continents. Researchers are referring to this region as the boundaries of the continents. (Picture- 1)

But, on the map showing the occurrence of earthquakes released by NASA, (Picture -1) surrounding the continent of Africa as if a line had been drawn, earthquakes had occurred continuously. Based on this, geologists state that Africa is situated on a single rocky plate.

But, on the same map, it can be seen that earthquakes had not occurred in continuity in between India and the continent of Australia .

. Based on this and the world map released by NASA which is supposed be the boundaries of the continents (Picture – 2), researchers of NASA have stated that they cannot definitely state as to what is happening on the sea bed between India and the continent of Australia . (See the note below Picture-2).

So, there is no basic evidence to prove that India and the continent of Australia are situated on two different rocky plates.

Hence, there is no basic proof for the researcher’s statement that the earthquake and tsunami in the island of Sumatra on 26-12-2004, were caused as the Indian rocky plate’s front edge got inserted below the rocky plate of Burma .

Due to the rising of the rocky plates, the island of Simeulue suddenly rose and earthquake and tsunami occurred.

So my discovery is that, only due to the rising of the rocky plates, the island of Simeulue also rose and earthquake and tsunami occurred on 26-12-2004 gets proved by the map showing the occurrence of earthquakes all over the world.

No proof for the drifting movement of the islands

Moreover, researchers state that the island of Madagascar which is in the Indian Ocean was fused with the continent of Africa sixteen crores of years ago and was later separated from Africa and still continues to move.

But, on the map showing the occurrence of earthquakes released by NASA, (Picture -1) earthquakes had occurred continuously surrounding the Arabian plateau. But, there had been no continuous earthquakes between the continent of Africa and the island of Madagascar .



This justifies that the island of Madagascar is not situated on a single rocky plate. So, there is no solid proof for the statement of researchers that many crores of years ago the island of Madagascar got detached from the continent of Africa and is still continuing to move.

But the fossils of dinosaurs that lived six and a half crores of years ago have been discovered on the island of Madagascar . The island of Madagascar is located at a distance of four hundred kilometers away from the continent of Africa . Moreover, in between the island of Madagascar and the continent of Africa lies the Mozambique Sea , which is of two kilometer depth. Dinosaurs would not have crossed this deep area by swimming across the sea.

Hence, it gets proved that six and a half crores of years ago the level of the sea had been two kilometers lower than now. As the level of the sea had been two kilometers lower dinosaurs would have used the connecting land area to migrate from Africa to the island of Madagascar .

When the molten rock material inside the earth gets cooled and hardens to form new rocky plates, the water which gets eliminated from the molten rock gets mixed with the sea water through deep sea hot water springs and the level of the sea keeps rising.

But, on the map showing the occurrence of earthquakes released by NASA, (Picture -1) there had been no continuous earthquakes between the continents of North America and South America .

So, there is no solid proof for stating that many crores of years ago all the continents remained fused together and in due course got detached and are moving away from each other continuously.

No solid proof to state that continents are moving continuously

As the fossils of sea fauna and flora are seen scattered all over the continents, it proves that many crores of years ago all the continents had remained submerged in the oceans and have now risen up above the sea level.
