Where is the city from? Part 10. Evidence of the Flood

The idea to write an article about the Aral came to me for a long time, but either I was not in the mood, or the workload did not allow me to be distracted by so many letters. Now 2014 is approaching, the students have a session, there is less work and I have a desire to speak out.

In June 1986, fate threw me into the Kyzyl-Orda region, not that of my own free will, I just had to repay the debt to my homeland, but in those days it was not only an honorable duty, but also a mission from which it was difficult to evade, it turned out to be able to avoid only one in a thousand.

The bare, dried steppe crushed with its infinity and emptiness even from the train window, the Tyura-Tam station greeted us with the acrid smell of dry reeds, and the specific taste of the still unheated desert, it was the end of June, five o'clock in the morning.

Omitting the details, I will say - it brought me to Baikonur. Due to the fact that behind my back I already had the first course of the Polytechnic Institute, specializing in computer and electronic equipment design engineer, I knew not by hearsay what electric current was. I got into training at 31 sites. There we had to go through the Crimea, Rum and copper pipes, as well as 48 degrees in the shade and much more.

Desert ships.

But this is not the main thing … While digging trenches in the steppe according to the principle "from here until lunchtime", I often came across seashells in the sand, not river-thin-walled, which could be attributed to the proximity of the Syr Darya, but sea, with rather thick and strong walls.

In May 1987, before the first launch of the Energia carrier rocket near the 92nd site, as a sergeant, I commanded a platoon that buried the hull of the unlaunched Proton rocket into the ground, making an excellent shelter for personnel. Due to the fact that the diameter of the hull was 4.1 meters, the hole had to be dug 7 meters deep.

Below the level of 80 centimeters there were seashells, and only deeper than 1, 5 m. Was homogeneous sand and brown clay. I even brought a few pieces home, it's a pity they got lost later.

A couple of lines of memories

The ground complex of the UR-200 rocket (object 334) included the following sites of the Baikonur cosmodrome:

• site no. 90 - experimental combat position;

• Site No. 91 - IS and US spacecraft filling station;

• Site No. 92 - technical position of the IS and US spacecraft;

• platform No. 93 - pyrotechnic position;

• Site No. 94 - technical position of the Ministry of Medium Machine Building;

• site No. 94A - special technical position;

• site No. 95 - residential area;

• site No. 96 - radio control point;

• site No. 97 - measuring point;

• platform No. 98 - unloading platform.

Construction of the 90s began in February - March 1962.

MIC (assembly and testing complex) during life, site 92.

Launch of LV Cyclone from SC pl. 90.

Launch of the Proton rocket from the spacecraft 200 square (then the rockets were still taking off).

Site 95 (residential area).

Now the main thing here is camels

All that remains of the former greatness.

Then, in my youth, I did not even wonder where the seashells came from in the steppe, practically in the desert, but the time had come. I will not pull the cat by the tail for a long time, let's look at the Aral-Caspian basin from space together, Googlemaps will help us.

Here are more pictures

…and further

I think the drying rate of the Aral Sea is easy to calculate.

And now let's go back 200-300 years, look at some cards from a different angle, and for a while forget about what the official history obstinately tells us.

The Black Sea, the Caspian Sea and the Aral Sea are one whole, the only sea in the south-east of Europe. Western Siberia is flooded, the Volga channel is a strait from the Baltic to the Black Sea-Caspian-Aral basin, and most importantly, Europe is separated from Asia.

On the maps of Great Tartary of the 16-17th centuries, there is the only sea into which the Volga, Syr Darya and Amu Darya flow. The accuracy of the maps is quite high, the coastlines of other seas and even small lakes are indicated very accurately, so an error is excluded.

Maps of Tartary

If today we take a real photo of the Aral-Caspian basin, superimpose it on a physical elevation map with an amendment of +50 meters, we will get such a picture (this is a very rough assumption, but it takes place to BE).

Compare with this

Commentary taken from the site "Living History": Author Andras.

This may very well be true. Controlling waterways was the primary task of any state, and even more so as great and developed as Tartary. The instant drying of the Aral Sea is an example of this, as soon as the water level in the sea reached a critical point, when it began to warm through and through and the bottom was heated, the water practically boiled away. For 30 years it has boiled away. In 1960, its volume was 1,083 cubic kilometers, with an area of 69,000 square kilometers. Now it is less than 50 cubic kilometers, with an area of 13,000 square kilometers … 5-8 years left … and that's it.

Remembering the school, I will say one thing, I was surprised why the Caspian and Aral are called seas, they are lakes that do not connect with the oceans anywhere, like Issyk-Kul, Balkhash. The only sources of water for them are freshwater rivers and that's all, so why is their water bitter-salty. The child's logic resisted the teacher's vague explanations, but the stereotype won out, as always: the teacher is older, so he knows more. Then, in high school, I calculated the rate of evaporation of the water of the Caspian and Aral Sea, taking into account the fresh water coming from the rivers, so that the seas are in the same climatic zone and at the same latitude. It was not difficult, the area and volume data were taken from the atlas, the evaporation rate and temperature from the textbook, no one hid the formula. A strange result came out, the teacher said: data error. It turned out that in 50 years the Aral Sea will not exist at all, and the Caspian will become shallower by 10% or 20-35 meters, it was 1983. It took 30 years, and … the data turned out to be all right.

Very accurate maps of the flooding of an entire planet after the melting of the pole glaciers were compiled by Gordon Michael Scallion.

I bring them to your attention: Scallion's predictions.

The first drying sea to be noticed was the Dead Sea in Israel.

Height above sea level: minus 427 m.

Area about 810 km²

Volume 147 (initially 325) km³

Maximum depth - 377 m

Mineralization type - salty

Salinity: 300-350 ‰

Flowing rivers: Jordan

Let's look at today's data on the Caspian Sea:

Height above sea level: minus 28 m.

Area - 371,000 km²

Volume - 78 200 km³

The length of the coastline is 7000 km.

The greatest depth is 1025 m.

The average depth is 208 m.

The type of mineralization is slightly salted.

Salinity up to 13%

Drainage area - 3 626 000 km²

Flowing rivers: Volga, Ural, Terek, Kura, etc.

At the beginning of the 20th century, local residents began to notice that the edge of the Caspian coast - this unique sea-lake not connected to the ocean - was receding, and coastal settlements were "moving away" from the water. Since the 30s, scientists (Azerbaijani, Kazakh, Turkmen, Russian) have become interested in this phenomenon. By the 70s, they came to the conclusion that the level of the Caspian was decreasing irreversibly. The environmentalists who had become more active by this time sounded the alarm in the media: the Caspian is dying! In terms of evaporation rate, this reservoir occupies one of the first places in the world! Ecologists even put into circulation the term: the New Dead Sea, while the Aral Sea was drying up at a rate ten times faster.

Today's data on the Aral:

Remaining area 13,000 km²

Flowing rivers: Syr Darya, Amu Darya and that's it.

Not so long ago there were significant fluctuations in the level of the Aral Sea. So, on the receding bottom, the remains of trees that grew in its place were found. Earlier, the Aral Sea was connected with the Caspian Sea. Until 1573, the Amu Darya along the Uzboy branch flowed into the Caspian Sea, and the Turgai River - into the Aral. For example, the map compiled by the Greek scientist Claudius Ptolemy (II century AD) shows the Aral and Caspian Seas, the Zerafshan and Amu Darya rivers flow into the Caspian.

Lectures on the topic - the seas were left after the glaciers melted 12,000 years ago, I am slightly jarred. Ice is a fresh substance, which means that salt in water does not fit into this theory. The simplest explanation, in my opinion, is the most correct. Salt water in the Aral and the Caspian Sea, just like in the Black Sea, got as a result of the ocean's overlap across the continent. Due to the fact that there are rather high mountains on the south side, its path lay from the north.

Now it is not so important for me as a result of what it happened, more important is how recently it happened, and how often such cataclysms happen.

The Mangyshlak Peninsula is a vivid example of a dry sea.

Interesting finds of Mangyshlak

A whole article can be written about the stone balls of Magyshlak, although …

there is already such an article: Giant globular nodules and septarian nodules.

A very interesting film on the topic of the conversation, there are many answers to my questions, I would even say too much.

The fact that the Black Sea used to be also a freshwater lake was talked about loudly not so long ago. Where did the hydrogen sulfide layer come from in the Black Sea?

The fact that the level of the Black Sea was much lower is evidenced by many finds, for example, this article: A sunken cave city was found at the bottom of the Crimean coast. Almost all of his life is concentrated in the surface, 100-meter layer of the Black Sea. Deeper - to depths of over 2 kilometers, there are only a few types of bacteria; there are no animals or plants, because there is no oxygen in the water. In accordance with salinity, the density of water also changes. The main share of organic remains in the silt at the bottom of the Black Sea and hydrogen sulfide into the sea water was brought by animals, algae and plants that died and were brought into it with a rapid increase in salinity, after the ocean water got into it. The freshwater flora and fauna died, it was replaced by the marine.

Sea water came to the Black Sea from the east.

It's just a redistribution of water from melted glaciers from the cap of the Arctic Ocean, although I believe in a catastrophe more: a change of poles, a fall of a meteorite, an increase or decrease in solar activity, etc. The world is fragile and defenseless, what is one planet on the scale of the galaxy?

There was a flood, and they escaped from it as best they could. This is how they are saved today.

It is possible that the Trans-Volga Great Wall is a witness of the catastrophic flood - a hydraulic structure designed to keep the rise of water in the channel of the Volga.

Fortifications in Siberia on the Irtysh. For what? With whom to fight in the wild, uninhabited area?

The so-called "Serpent Shafts" also remained on the territory of Ukraine.

The history of their origin and purpose is still unclear. To use an earthen rampart with a height of 12-15 meters and a duration of 14 thousand kilometers, as a defensive structure, in my opinion, is stupid.

But if we imagine that they were trying to protect the fields and settlements from the impending rise of water and its diversion into the channel of the Dnieper, then everything falls into place. And perhaps Robert Hubert (1733-1808) was right when he painted the ruins of ancient cities in Europe. It washed away everything and everyone. The most important thing was washed away - the real history.

Another artist who captured the post-Flood ruins of Europe, Giovanni Battista Piranesi (Italian Giovanni Battista Piranesi, or Giambattista Piranesi; 1720-1778) - Italian archaeologist, architect and graphic artist, engraver, draftsman, master of architectural landscapes.

Here are some of his prints.

The mention of the universal flood with, in my opinion, its most accurate dating, is also in religious writings. Here is the "History of the Old and New Testaments" reprinted in 1820

The entire book is HERE: A Brief Sacred History of the Old and New Testaments, for the edification of children.

The date of the "beginning of the flood" is indicated to the nearest day.

The date from the "end of the flood" is also no secret.

If we raise the ocean level by only 200 meters, we will have such pictures,

and parking Noah's Ark near Mount Ararat becomes not such a difficult task.
