Can DU prof's moon theory capture support? - The Newark Advocate

A retired Denison University geosciences professor is getting help from the planet Venus and a changing outlook in the science world to help promote his theory about how the moon became part of our night sky. Professor Emeritus Bob Malcuit has published “The Twin Sister Planets Venus and Earth – Why are they so different. But a big part of his book is the “moon capture” theory he has espoused for nearly four decades. Malcuit believes that Earth’s gravity captured the moon from an earth-like, sun-centered orbit. Its original orbit, in this model, was located inside the orbit of Mercury, the planet closest to the sun. Under this scenario, a planet the approximate size of Mars collided with Earth, spewing debris into earth orbit that eventually coalesced to form the moon. DU Geosciences department chair Dave Goodwin said that in his book, Malcuit has highlighted the fundamental question of how we got the moon and how that question remains unanswered in many peoples’ eyes. Malcuit believes his theory has a fighting chance now because scientists at an international symposium in London, England in 2013 concluded that the giant impact theory has too many holes.

River that runs through downtown San Jose goes dry; fish and wildlife suffer - San Jose Mercury News

SAN JOSE -- On a recent afternoon at Guadalupe River Park in the heart of downtown, a couple strolled hand-in-hand, a mother pushed her toddler in a stroller, and soft breezes rustled the leaves of stately trees near the home of the San Jose Sharks. The river that runs through America's 10th-largest city has dried up, shriveling a source of civic pride that had welcomed back trout, salmon, beavers and other wildlife after years of restoration efforts. Fish and other wildlife are either missing or dead, casualties of California's relentless drought. "I'm heartbroken," said Leslee Hamilton, executive director of the Guadalupe River Park Conservancy, a nonprofit that runs educational and community programs along the river. The state's rivers and creeks are withering and in some cases disappearing entirely after four years of historically dry weather -- the focus of the latest installment of this newspaper's series, "A State of Drought. In the agriculture-rich Central Valley, the drought has slowed plans to release more water to the San Joaquin River to bring the over-tapped waterway back to life. Up north in Humboldt County, salmon are at risk of going high and dry in the tributaries of the Eel River. Across the state, environmentalists are battling state, federal and local water agencies, arguing that more water should be released from reservoirs to save species in. Source: www.mercurynews.com
