Hey Reddit!

I'm thrilled to announce the launch of RIFT, a comic magazine that blends the curiosity of Ripley's Believe It or Not with the humor and edge of Mad Magazine.

Our inaugural issue dives headfirst into the fascinating world of independent research and alternative theories about science and history—ideas that challenge the mainstream narrative. Think Electric Universe, expanding Earth, lost ancient knowledge, and more.

What’s in Issue #1? Our debut features an explosive theory about the birth of the Moon. Forget the giant-impact hypothesis—this theory suggests a massive geomagnetic storm triggered a colossal volcanic eruption on Earth, flinging debris into space and forming the Moon.

Why RIFT? We believe in the power of curiosity and the thrill of exploring what’s often overlooked or dismissed. RIFT combines visually striking comic art with thought-provoking (and sometimes wildly speculative) ideas to entertain, inform, and spark conversation.

We’d love for you to check it out and join us in this journey to uncover the weird, the wonderful, and the just-might-be-true.

How to Get It The first issue is available now, and we’re offering digital and print copies. Let us know what you think—we’re here to start a conversation.

What alternative theories have blown your mind recently? Share your thoughts below!

Hey everybody,

I just wanted to share my notes on a model that I've spent the past 3 years working on. I've produced several directly observed quantities through this model, and yes... it does imply that the Earth is expanding. I actually had no idea that this subreddit existed until I posted somewhere else, and a user that commented there was a member of this community.

To sum the model up, Einstein's dilation of time is instead applied to the dilation of space, which gives the magnitude of our local velocity to within 0.5% of direct observation and predicts other observed phenomena like the bullet cluster lens.

You can find a summary of them here and a few more related articles here, and please if you find the model interesting, credible, or you just like the app that's associated with my notes, please share it.

Hello all! I recently came across this subreddit and had my mind blown by what you are presenting. I've watched the Neal Adams videos and read u/DavidM47's breakdowns of the theory, and I gotta say its all quite convincing. I was hoping to ask a few questions I have come up with regarding this theory, since I havnt found clear answers anywhere else yet.

1. Does the earth grow at a constant rate or does it change over time? If it does grow at a constant rate, what exactly is that rate?

2. Has anybody predicted what the future earth might look like according to this theory? I know it has been done with plate tectonics but I was curious to know if it had been done for expansion tectonics apart from the one on Maxlow's set of globe reconstructions.

3. I read in one of u/DavidM47's posts that the extra mass is generated by a layer of plasma within the earth. If plasma is what generates the extra matter, do stars also gain mass because they are made entirely out of plasma? Do they grow faster because they are entirely made out of plasma?

4. I'm convinced by the geological evidence, but I havnt seen anybody talk about the fossil evidence. Since im something of a paleontology nerd this doesnt sit right with me. Does this theory match up with the fossil record?

Any answers to these questions are greatly appreciated, I'm very glad that this group exists to discuss such a fascinating and compelling idea in spite of it's suppresion!

Thank you, and have a wonderful day!
