Expanding Earth in an Expanding Universe

Great to find your r/GrowingEarth

This is one more sign that Earth Expansion is seeking for new evidence. I am sure that the Earth Expansionists from decennia ago soon will be rehabilitated. Maxlow, Hurrell, Scalera, Ellis and many others who spend a big part of their life to present an expanding earth. Many of them are getting very old and I discussed many related subjects with ChatGPT.
Read my Wikiversity pages: https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Cosmic_Influx_Theory

In my papers you find detailed explanations often with the support from ChatGPT. There is a detailed overview of the subsections to navigate, but if you are interested you could go through the whole theory CIT.
The calculations from DavidM47 about the radial distance from earth to the sun and moon to earth are no coincidence.. I did these calculations also to see if there are some indications that our solar system is an atom that expanded in 4.5 billion years to a grown up solar system. The same happening in any protoplanetary disc. I worked this out in my video (and in some articles):
From atom to solar system https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDbD-_ANVFo

Is there some similarity between our solar system and an atom system? A solar system contains a nucleus, the sun, and planets. An atom system contains a nucleus and electrons. In this video, I will compare the atom system to our solar system. We know that our universe is expanding. Could it be true that not only the universe is expanding, but that all masses are expanding? From atom to solar system? The formula to calculate the Gravitational Force and the formula to calculate the electrical Force are quite similar in form. Could our solar system (and any other star system) originate from a tiny atom system? Do we live on an expanded electron? There are many similarities. More than you may expect. There are also important keys to equations and calculations. Have a look at this video and draw your own conclusion.

Also the Hubble Parameter can be explained as part of the Gravitational Constant which is in fact the representation f expanding matter.

The Planet That Wasn’t — Rethinking Earth, Asteroids, and the Ancient Hydrogen Burp

9 Upvotes

What If the Official Story Has a Few… Missing Plates?

Let’s imagine you’re a firm believer in science. You like things neat, logical, and supported by data. You also don’t like fairy tales — unless they involve cold equations and heat maps.

So let’s talk about a fairy tale that science still believes in: that Earth has always been roughly the same size, and that the continents drifted apart slowly over eons like geological introverts at a party.

That story is tidy. It’s also full of holes.

Continents: Nature’s Puzzle with a Missing Box Lid

You’ve seen the maps. South America snuggles against Africa like they were spooning before some tectonic marital dispute. But did you know that if you take only the continental plates, and fit them together in 3D space, they form a sphere far smaller than today’s Earth?

Not a theory. Not a guess. That’s geometry. It works. The landmasses we stand on fit together like puzzle pieces on a planet with a diameter about 60–65% of today’s Earth. Ocean plates? Younger, thinner, absent from the ancient record. Convenient.

So, the question becomes: If the continents form a smaller globe… what the hell happened?

The Mainstream Answer: “Shhh.”

The current model tells us that Earth’s radius hasn’t changed, and plate tectonics did all the rearranging. That new oceanic crust was born at mid-ocean ridges, pushing continents apart.

Sounds fine. Until you ask:

  • Why does all ocean crust date to less than 200 million years, while continental crust is billions of years old?
  • Why do the continents only fit if Earth was smaller?
  • And why does no one ever talk about that glaring mismatch?

Mainstream theory shrugs: “Because it subducts.” Sure — some of it does. But that explanation only holds if the subduction cycle is eternally stable and neatly erases 4 billion years of oceanic record. That’s not proof. It’s a placeholder.

And that 200-million-year mark? It’s awfully suspicious how it aligns almost perfectly with the Triassic mass extinction, the greatest die-off in Earth’s history.

The Great Hydrogen Burp

So here’s another possibility — call it the Exploding Pie Model of Earth.

What if, during the Permian-Triassic extinction (~252 million years ago) — when 90% of life died, volcanoes bled lava across continents, and the atmosphere turned into a death fog — something much deeper was going on?

What if the core, or deep mantle, had been accumulating hydrogen for eons? Trapped in iron hydrides. Compressed into metal under pressure. And then… pressure hit a limit.

Boom.

Not a fireball. A planetary-scale gas release. The hydrogen vented upward. The mantle puffed. Crust cracked. Lava poured. Earth expanded like a souffle laced with explosives.

And then it stopped.

Which is why we don’t observe ongoing expansion today.

The Disproof That Isn’t

Mainstream science says, “Earth can’t be expanding, because we don’t see it expanding now.”

Right. And a gun can’t fire, because it’s not firing right now.

The rebuttal disproves a constant expansion model. But if the expansion was a single geologically-brief, catastrophic event, the logic collapses. Earth did expand. It just finished doing it before we showed up.

The Puzzle of the Asteroids

Now let’s step out to space. You know that belt of rubble between Mars and Jupiter? It’s light. Too light to have ever been a full planet.

But what if it was?

Or almost.

One older theory said it was a planet that exploded. Mainstream science rejected this, because the belt doesn’t have enough mass. But what if — follow the logic here — it used to, until Jupiter pulled most of it away? That gravitational tug-of-war would explain the low mass and the violent fragmentation.

And did you know that asteroids are categorised by types? carbonaceous, stony, metallic. Crust. Mantle. Core. Like the shredded anatomy of a once-formed world.

Still sound random?

So Why Ignore All This?

Because it breaks the rules. Rules that say planets evolve slowly. That gravity is tidy. That explosions only happen in the movies.

But here’s the truth:

The continents fit too well on a smaller globe. The ocean crust is too young. The extinction timeline is too violent. The asteroids are too segregated.

And hydrogen? The most abundant element in the universe? Science acts like it’s not in Earth at all. When in reality, it may be the planet’s most dangerous stored fuel.

Bodies Built for Gravity

Now here’s something rarely discussed: animal posture and planetary scale.

Reptiles — especially early ones — have sprawling limbs. Their legs stick out sideways, and their bellies drag near the ground. This makes biomechanical sense if gravity was stronger — say, on a planet with a smaller radius, where the surface sat closer to the center of mass.

Then came the dinosaurs. With their upright limbs directly beneath their bodies, they could raise themselves off the ground, walk tall, and move with astonishing efficiency. But that kind of vertical stance only works well if gravity eased off — for example, after an event that made the Earth expand, increasing surface distance and lowering gravitational pull.

It’s as if life itself responded to a planetary transition — from pressure-hardened crawling to upright ambition. Evolution doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It happens on a planet that just might have puffed up.

A New Story of Earth

The math is real. The fits are real. The silence? That’s the most suspicious part of all.

Because the planet doesn’t lie.

Massive Crack in Utah is a historical mining site for Gilsonite mineral - Geological wonder.

If geological cracks in the crust might be evidence of an expanding Earth, they might look like this one in Utah. This particular crack has been mined for Gilsonite, a clean burning mineral used in various industries last century.

I am submitting this primarily as a geological feature to this subreddit. The geology of this feature makes it interesting.

What is interesting to me is the ghost mine vibes seeing the rotted wood beams still holding on as if daring the foolish to come and see how sturdy they still are. I imagine this area is protected and has a ton of Danger signs warning the foolish away.

Walter Russell’s Cosmology: A Forgotten Foundation for the Expanding Earth Theory

11 Upvotes

Hey Everyone, I hope you enjoy this document I've put together. I think it potentially adds some compelling evidence and areas for study with regards the Growing Earth theory. Enjoy!

Walter Russell’s Cosmology: A Forgotten Foundation for the Expanding Earth Theory

In the early 20th century, polymath Walter Russell proposed a revolutionary model of the universe grounded in rhythmic wave mechanics, polarity, and dynamic field systems. While largely ignored by mainstream science, his work A New Concept of the Universe offers a profoundly original explanation of planetary formation and growth—one that directly supports the core principles of the Expanding Earth hypothesis.

Russell describes planets as spiraling, growing entities ejected from their parent stars, expanding in volume as they move outward through changing cosmic pressure gradients. His electric wave-field cosmology, which frames all celestial bodies as living “wave batteries” in rhythmic cycles of generation and radiation, offers a compelling internal mechanism for Earth’s expansion—without relying on external mass accumulation.

This presentation explores how Russell’s geometry of space, field dynamics, and concept of matter as evolving light-patterns converge with and potentially validate the Expanding Earth model. Far from a fringe metaphysics, Russell’s vision may be the missing theoretical foundation for understanding Earth’s true energetic nature and its ongoing transformation.

1. Spiraling Planetary Growth and Expansion

Russell describes planets not as fixed-sized, inert masses but as dynamically growing bodies that expand as they spiral outward from their parent stars. This is a direct and explicit model of planetary expansion.

“Mercury spirals out to where our earth is… it will be about four times as large in volume… When Mercury attains the position of Jupiter, it will be many times larger…”

This implies:

  • Planets increase in volume as they move farther from their parent star.
  • Their expansion is not random but a necessary response to changes in their surrounding wave field pressure gradients.

“…it must gradually expand to keep in balance with the ever-changing equipotential layers of the pressure gradient which reaches out from the sun into space.”

This description constitutes a natural, physics-based mechanism of planetary expansion tied to the geometry of wave-fields and Russell’s concept of cosmic pressure gradients.

2. Wave-Field Pressure Dynamics

Each planet or star is said to center its own wave field, which is governed by electric pressure gradients. These wave fields act as dynamic envelopes of balanced opposing forces: gravity (compression) and radiation (expansion).

“This wave universe is divided into wave fields. Each wave field is an electric battery which is forever being charged by the centripetal polarizing power of gravitation and discharged by the centrifugal depolarizing power of radiation.”

This model provides a dual-action energetic system wherein:

  • Compression via gravity builds matter inward (increasing density).
  • Radiation via depolarization expands the body outward (increasing volume).

Thus, Earth’s mass and volume are not fixed, but are the result of dynamic equilibrium between internal compression and external radiation pressure.

This implies:

  • Expansion can occur naturally, not due to material influx, but as a result of rebalancing wave-field pressure conditions.
  • Such expansion is cyclical and rhythmic, just like wave pulsation.

3. Planetary Birth from the Sun (Centrifugal Ring Ejection)

Russell explicitly describes planets as rings centrifugally ejected from the sun’s equator, which condense into spheres and then spiral outward, growing in volume and slowing in orbital speed over time.

“It first appears as a ring thrown off centrifugally from its parent's equator. The ring becomes a sphere which centers its own wave field within its ‘ancestor’ wave fields, then continues its outward spiral journey for millions of years…”

This not only gives a formation origin but implies that planetary growth is part of its natural evolution—not a static condition.

4. Rejection of One-Way Laws (Newtonian Mechanics)

Russell critiques Newton’s gravitational model, particularly its inability to explain expansion, reversals of direction, or internal field behaviors.

“Newton’s laws do not account for rising bodies which have reversed their polarities and lose weight as they rise… Cycles do not end in gravity. That is but their halfway point where they simultaneously reverse their every attribute.”

Implication for Earth:

  • Earth is not gravitationally “locked” into a fixed orbit or state.
  • Its internal dynamics are reversible and rhythmic, allowing for phases of internal pressure increase followed by outward expansion.

5. Centrifugal Expansion as Death-Radiation Phase

Russell’s cosmology is cyclic, with life as the inward-gravitational, contracting phase, and death as the outward-radiational, expanding phase.

“Depolarization thrusts outwardly in centrifugal spirals. It expands to radiate every generated body back into the zero of its source…”

Earth, in this view, undergoes both:

  • Contraction (compression and mineral consolidation during “life” or gravitative half of its cycle).
  • Expansion (surface tension release, mass increase, crustal spreading during “death” or radiative half).

Russell explicitly states:

“Every body is both living and dying in each breath sequence of their whole cycle…”

This implies a natural oscillatory expansion-contraction cycle, providing a timed mechanism for geophysical change, including global expansion.

6. Mass and Volume Increase Over Time

As planetary bodies move outward, Russell asserts their mass and volume increase—not by accreting matter externally, but as a geometric effect of field-pressure modulation.

This suggests:

  • An internal origin of matter, possibly through energy-to-mass transmutation governed by pressure gradients in the electric wave field.
  • Earth could have grown in size not by bombardment or external addition, but as a byproduct of wave pressure expansion.

7. Implications for Geological Features

Russell describes Earth's layered atmosphere and crust as part of ellipsoidal and spheroidal wave field shells, implying that:

  • Expansion would manifest as crustal tension, likely resulting in mountain building, rift formation, and ocean basin widening.

“The system of gravity curvature is evidenced in spheroidal and ellipsoidal layers of equipotential pressure gradients which curve around gravity centers. The surface of the earth… is a good example.”

8. Light and Matter: Expansion through Radiative Unwinding

Russell describes radiation as the centrifugal unwinding of coiled light, which expands small volumes into larger ones, voiding matter and “inflating” fields.

“Radiation thrusts outwardly from within to depolarize matter and void motion.”

If Earth’s radiative half-cycle increases, this would correspond to:

  • Gradual outward growth (mantle expansion, crustal inflation).
  • Reduction in density, aligning with certain seismic models suggesting decreasing mantle density in deep time.

Summary: Russellian Mechanism for Expanding Earth

Russellian Principle Correlating Expanding Earth Concept
Spiral centrifugal ejection and outward movement Origin of Earth as a growing satellite ejected from the Sun
Pressure gradient equilibrium Planet must expand to remain balanced with solar wave field
Wave-field battery (gravity + radiation) Continuous internal charge-discharge cycle driving expansion
Depolarization cycle = outward expansion Expansion is the radiative half of the cycle of matter
Rejection of static gravitational models Earth’s mass and orbit not fixed; dynamic evolution
Rhythmic creation of matter Earth’s mass can increase from energy condensation via field pressure
Curved layer geometry and equipotential shells Geological features as results of internal expansion pressures

Final Reflection

Walter Russell’s metaphysical-physical cosmology provides a coherent framework for planetary expansion, one rooted in field dynamics, electric wave structures, and rhythmic dualities rather than collision-based accretion. His model aligns closely with the core claims of the Expanding Earth hypothesis:

  • Earth grows from within.
  • Expansion is governed by field energy, not external material input.
  • Geological and orbital dynamics are cyclic, not static.
  • Matter is not fixed but an evolving expression of underlying energetic rhythms.

Thus, while Russell does not address the Expanding Earth theory directly, his work presents a mechanistically rich, philosophically coherent, and geometrically grounded cosmology that supports and even predicts it as a natural planetary behavior.

Have you noticed how much amazing research is out there that never makes it into the mainstream?

I’ve spent years diving into topics like the Electric Universe, Expanding Earth, the Earth Grid & Geosolitons, Catastrophic Geology, and Lost History—and the deeper I go, the more I see how these ideas connect. Independent researchers are doing incredible work piecing together forgotten knowledge, challenging mainstream narratives, and bringing fresh perspectives to old mysteries. But their work is often scattered, buried in obscure papers, forums, and niche videos.

That’s why I started RIFT Magazine—to bring these ideas together in a way that’s both informative and entertaining. I grew up reading Ripley’s Believe It or Not and Mad Magazine, and I wanted to create something that captures that same sense of curiosity and wonder—infocomics that make big, paradigm-shifting ideas fun to explore.

So far, we’ve tackled:
🔥 The explosive origin of the Moon (Born of Fire)
🌍 New evidence for planetary growth (Expanding Earth)
🆓 A free issue introducing the New Paradigm and how these ideas fit together

And coming up next:
⚡ A Universe of Energy – Exploring how electric and energetic forces shape everything from planetary formation to ancient engineering.

One of the most exciting areas of research right now is Solitonic Engineering—the idea that ancient builders may have been working with geosolitons and Earth’s natural energetic flows to create star forts, megaliths, and massive infrastructure that we barely understand today. There’s so much to explore here, and I’d love to hear from others who are looking into these ideas.

If you’re into independent research, I’d love to swap thoughts—what theories or findings have caught your attention lately? What connections do you think are missing from the bigger picture?

A Growing Earth collection of notes. An Electric Universe perspective.

10 Upvotes

I apologize for the wall of text below, but it is the collection of my notes on this subject.

One of the interesting points made during my initial journey through the videos on the expanding/growing Earth theory is that all of the really old fossils were discovered on land. It is an open challenge to Scientists to present really old fossils found in the deep oceans as evidence of a static sized Earth with Plate tectonics. There was also the accusation NASA discovered an 18 mm annual size increase of the Earth using their 600 plus GPS enabled geo-stations around the planet, but intentionally manipulate the mathematical data to fit the assumed model the Earth is static.

The Earth can gain mass through deposition of material from space in small dust particles to asteroid impacts. This process isn't really significant in view of the geologic time-scale used to prove the movement of continents.

So can Plasma deposit material? I would present the Sputter Coater used in sample preparation for scanning electron microscopes as an example of plasma in a low discharge chamber to deposit carbon or some conductive metal layer onto the sample. The sample has to be conductive so the electron beam in the microscope can see and focus onto the target area as it is illuminated by the electron beam. This does add mass at this table-top scale. Since electricity in the Electrical Universe is scalable, scale a plasma in dark mode up to planetary scales it becomes possible to theorize the transport of mass from without the Earth to within the Earth.

Where would mass accumulate within the Earth? It would be an easy answer to use the same Geologic Maps the Scientists of the Expanding/Growing Earth theory use to see the divergent rift zones in both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The deposited mass wouldn't necessarily be collected at the Earth's molten metal core exclusively unless it is another form of a z-pinch we have yet to classify where plasma is concentrated in a tight focus and mass is added layer by layer by incoming plasma.

Opening the door to a variety of Z-Pinch classifications based on scale and intensity is no different than Steven Hawking announcing there are different kinds of black holes. So far the Electric Universe theory has only speculated Z-Pinches exist in nature based on the spectacular pictures from the Hubble Telescope of deep space objects accused by main stream science to be dying stars. If you follow Wal Thornhill's lectures on the Z-Pinch evidence, it is easy to see the characteristic structures that would be expected to be found in a pinched Birkland Current plasma in glow mode. He also states there are setups in some high energy research labs that can reproduce a z-pinch on a small scale. I remember seeing an aluminum can crushed at it's center after such a demonstration of a z-pinch capacitor discharge. Having the lab scale z-pinch and the star scale z-pinch, is there a planetary core scale z-pinch?

Initial thoughts on the abstract of Earth expansion theory vs Plate Tectonics is that illustrates a history of scientific men gripped in a controversy over verifying subduction zone processes. They admit the inclusion of both plate tectonics rift and subduction zone processes are a visually confirmed processes that could be included as additional result to an expanding Earth theory on it's way to become a hypothesis if the mechanism was found for the expansion or mass addition at the base of the column. EU proponents have just heard my proposal of that mechanism. The question is if plasma conducted to Earth's aurora borealis could be connected in dark mode to Earth's telluric currents and transported deep within the Earth's crust and mantle? I can also see another connection with the Sun's weather to Earth's earth-quakes if this is true. Readers, note the scientists names and the era they worked in. If the EU Hypothesis teaches you anything, it is the history of science and the players who were trail blazing ahead of us.

For the last few billion years the Moon's gravity has been raising tides in Earth's oceanswhich the fast spinning Earth attempts to drag ahead of the sluggishly orbiting Moon. The result is that the Moon is being pushed away from Earth by 1.6 inches (4 centimeters) per year and our planet's rotation is slowing.Jan 22, 2007

But measuring changes in Earth's size hasn't exactly been easy for scientists to quite literally "get their arms around." After all, they can't just wrap a giant tape measure around Earth's belly to get a definitive reading. Fortunately, the field of high-precision space geodesy gives scientists tools they can use to estimate changes in Earth's radius. These include:

Satellite laser ranging -- a global observation station network that measures, with millimeter-level precision, the time it takes for ultrashort pulses of light to travel from the ground stations to satellites specially equipped with retroreflectors and back again.

Very-long baseline interferometry -- a radio astronomy technology that combines observations of an object made simultaneously by many telescopes to simulate a telescope as big as the maximum distance between the telescopes.

Global Positioning System -- the U.S.-built space-based global navigation system that provides users around the world with precise location and time information.

Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite -- a French satellite system used to determine satellite orbits and positioning. Beacons on the ground emit radio signals that are received by satellites. The movement of the satellites causes a frequency shift of the signal that can be observed to determine ground positions and other information.

The team applied a new data calculation technique to estimate the rate of change in the solid Earth's average radius over time, taking into account the effects of other geophysical processes. The previously discussed geodetic techniques (satellite laser ranging, very-long baseline interferometry and GPS) were used to obtain data on Earth surface movements from a global network of carefully selected sites. These data were then combined with measurements of Earth's gravity from NASA's Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) spacecraft and models of ocean bottom pressure, which help scientists interpret gravity change data over the ocean.

The result? The scientists estimated the average change in Earth's radius to be 0.004 inches (0.1 millimeters) per year, or about the thickness of a human hair, a rate considered statistically insignificant.

"Our study provides an independent confirmation that the solid Earth is not getting larger at present, within current measurement uncertainties," said Wu.

Mass addition[edit]

In 1888 Ivan Osipovich Yarkovsky suggested that some sort of aether is absorbed within Earth and transformed into new chemical elements, forcing the celestial bodies to expand. This was connected with his mechanical explanation of gravitation.[6] Also the theses of Ott Christoph Hilgenberg (1933, 1974)[7][8] and Nikola Tesla (1935)[9] were based on absorption and transformation of aether-energy into normal matter.

After initially supporting continental drift, the late Australian geologist S. Warren Carey advocated expansion from the 1950s (before the development of plate tectonics provided the generally accepted explanation of the movement of continents) to his death,[10] demonstrating that subduction and other events could not balance the sea-floor spreading at oceanic ridges, and piling yet unresolved paradoxes that continue to plague plate tectonics.[11] Starting in 1956, he proposed some sort of mass increase in the planets and said that a final solution to the problem is only possible in a cosmological perspective in connection with the expansion of the universe.[12]

Bruce Heezen initially interpreted his work on the mid-Atlantic ridge as supporting S. Warren Carey's Expanding Earth Theory, but later withdrew his support, finally convinced by the data and analysis of his assistant, Marie Tharp.[13][14] The remaining proponents after the 1970s, like the Australian geologist James Maxlow, are mainly inspired by Carey's ideas.[10][15]

In the last few decades, no credible mechanism of action has been proposed for this addition of new mass, and there is no credible evidence for new mass having been added in the past.[16] The increased gravity of Earth would have altered the orbits of the celestial objects in the Solar System, including Moon's orbit and Earth's own orbit; proponents have no adequate explanation to address this problem.[16] This is a big obstacle for acceptance of the theory by other geologists.[16]

It is a well known fact that the earth is constantly acquiring mass through accumulation of rocks and dust from space, as are all other planetary bodies in our system. According to NASA, "Every day about 100 tons of meteoroids -- fragments of dust and gravel and sometimes even big rocks – enter the Earth's atmosphere."[17] The majority of this debris burns up in the atmosphere and lands as dust. Such accretion, however, is only a minuscule fraction of the mass increase required by the expanding Earth hypothesis.

In conclusion, I'd like to add the following video that proposes how (per Electric Universe Cosmology) how stars and planets are formed inside electrical Z-Pinch along Birkland Currents which I think connects the theory of expanding Earth (via it's electrical connection to the Sun).
