Asteroids Have Earth-like Crust
09 January 2009
How does a rock evolve? It doesn't.
Rocks can form in many ways. Asteroids designated GRA 06128 and GRA 06129 found in Antarctica appear to look like igneous rock. This is unusual for an asteroid so it has been assumed that the asteroid was once a part of a planet or moon that has been destroyed.
Igneous rock is formed by the solidification of magma. While this process is common on earth (and possibly other planets/moons) it does not happen anywhere we know of out in space. If the rock is truly igneous then it must have came from some planet or moon.
In the past we have read about asteroids that have come from mars or the moon but when we get a rock that looks like it is from earth why don't we assume it came from earth? Probably because the researchers believe in a uniformitarian view that there was not such a massive event on earth that would launch pieces of rock into space. The Bible says differently.
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up (Genesis 7:11). If there truly was water under the ground so that the “fountains of the great deep” could eject water enough to cover the highest mountains then it would be easy to calculate that water (and rock) ejecting into space forming comets and asteroids.
Comets are mostly ice and are rapidly melting. The trail that is behind a comet is the trail of evaporating ice being pushed away from the sun. Most comets have a short life span of around 10,000 years and there has been no observed source of these short term comets. The ejecting water from the Genesis flood would not only explain these short term comets but would also explain earth-like rocks floating around space.
