What about all of the aquifers and cave systems (surely some still to be discovered)? Also, some water must permeate downwards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do aquifers go below the crust and into the mantle? Either way. f**k all. Lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,638 Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Is there An Ocean Below Your Feet? SSEC.SI.EDU Some scientists think Earth's oceans formed when icy comets hit the planet... Fair one, so some scientists have theorised that there is based on various evidence. Seems very early to be saying with any certainty how much there is. Edited February 20, 2021 by Born Hunter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lol I guess so - without a doubt there is a lot of water in the oceans but, surely there's a fair amount below ground aswell. ........ the surface isn't impervious and, their will be gaps further down. To answer Francies question, is there is water there that gets effected by gravity - it must be effected in some way by the moon, however small. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PLEDGEY 493 Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 We can't even send people to the Moon, we don't have the technology. So what is the point of talking about sending people to Mars?. Better fit we sorted this planet out first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There is water below the ground (in the crust). f**k all compared to what is in the oceans. That is with the exception of this stuff in the mantle that Francie has talked about. But having now read up on it they really haven’t a firm answer on how much there is. This stuff they think they’ve found in the mantle is contained in the structure of the rocks. Even if these rocks enabled flow of the water they’d have to be virtually globally connected and sufficiently permeable to enable the water to flow fast enough to keep up with daily cycles. The oceans are pretty much unrestricted and globally connected so they have that freedom. Edited February 23, 2021 by Born Hunter Correction 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This stuff they think they’ve found in the mantle is contained in the pores of porous rocks. In the same way that some conventional ground water and oil and gas is. Even if these rocks have sufficient permeability to enable flow they’d have to be virtually globally connected and sufficiently permeable to enable the water to flow fast enough to keep up with daily cycles. The oceans are pretty much unrestricted and globally connected so they have that freedom. Good point - I can't really argue with that. ........ it's an interesting subject though I wonder if the liquid rock is effected Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any fluid bodies deep beneath the surface are sort of 'contained' by rock. Be like trying to slosh beans about in the can, vs in a bowl. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To answer Francies question, is there is water there that gets effected by gravity - it must be effected in some way by the moon, however small. Anything and everything is effected by gravity. For example Jupiter's moon (forget which one off the top of my head) bulges due to the gravitational pull of Jupiter. Our moon moves everything that is able to be moved under the force of gravity. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Does that mean the water under us in the caves an chambers would rise too mush? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mate, the great flood happened! It was caused by massive glaciers collapsing (ice was the dam) this is written on the earth and proven by geology. It happend all over the northern hemisphere and the effects were massive floods and a huge rise in sea level. So the water that is part of this earth is just that. No matter where it is. As Born said who knows how much of whatever is down there I will say this..... gravity is one muthafuka of a force 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 20,409 Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 The "Flood" is mentioned in most religions and myths. Its postulated that it may have been the breaching of the Pillars of Hercules, or the Bosporus land bridge, both of which would have had catastrophic results in the Mediterranean, and explain the myth in the Semitic religions. It doesn't, however explain how religions and myths as diverse as the Chinese, Australian aboriginals, North American natives and Norse all have Great Flood Myths. So, perhaps that's all it is, a myth ? Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
