The Expanding Hollow Earth Theory The Expanding Earth idea has been around for a long time, but science has not considered it worthy of genuine investigation because a driving force was missing. This is where the Hollow Earth theory comes in. A new understanding of Gravity gives rise to an expanding, hollow Earth and once and for all neatly solves the drifting continent phenomenon. This website sets out to prove that the Hollow Earth Theory and the Expanding Earth theory have credible scientific merit and should not be ignored. There is a wealth of evidence surfacing today that throws our current beliefs regarding the structure of our planet into serious doubt. Our goal is to accumulate as much of this information as possible and provide it in one easy-to-access place for all. Throughout the pages of this website new ideas and discoveries are presented from wide-ranging areas of science. Our investigation has delved into many subjects and disciplines including geology and plate tectonics, paleontology and evolution, genetics and biology, gravity, astronomy and others. Each of these topics has their own exciting story to tell and together they will build a new picture of the Earth that is sure to surprise. It is time look at the information before us with fresh eyes and open minds and to seek out the truth for ourselves.
By WGS-84, the equatorial radius of the Earth is 6,378.137 km (≈3,963.191 mi) and the polar radius of the Earth is 6,356.7523 km (≈3,949.903 mi), to one millimeter. If you want to know the radius of the Earth at any other latitude, it's a lot more complicated, so I'll just leave it at that. To summarize, the radius at the... Equator: 6,378.137 km (≈3,963.191 mi) Poles: 6,356.7523 km (≈3,949.903 mi) Mean: 6,371.009 km (≈3,958.761 mi) The radius is the distance from the surface of the Earth to the center of the Earth and center of the core. The distance TO the core is a little bit different, and the number itself will be an estimate and will vary depending on the model. One source shows (3489.92 ± 4.66) km for one velocity model and (3486.10 ± 4.59) km for another. I'll just use the average of those two, 3,488.01 km.

I cant be bothered to reply fully to you since you didn't bother reading what i wrote. I said there comes a certain point with SOME subjects where we can say we understand it 100% (or at least enough to maybe allow for small variations in our understanding)
What I'm saying is we know enough about the composition of the earth, planets, geology, and basic physics to know that there isn't a second effing sun inside our planet and that we are not living on a hollow sphere.
Do we understand everything about Earth? No. Of course not. But we know enough to know that that monumentally idiotic theory has no weight to it.
i get that our knowledge of physics is always changing, i get it. I know it. I studied physics at Uni. But you can be sure that our theories on certain subjects are 99% complete.
But hey, you want to live life in lala land where aliens live inside our hollow earth, be my guest. Just don't bitch and moan when we all point at you and laugh.

Volcanoes, its mass, earthquakes and how their shock waves travel all point to a NON HOLLOW EARTH!
P waves and S waves. P-waves, or primary waves, that travel at 3 miles (5 km) per second, stretching and squeezing rocks laterally. S-waves, or secondary waves, move from side to side at about 2 miles (3 km) a second.

Caves are NOT a hollow earth they are caves DOH!
If the theories re the shockwaves from an earthquake were wrong they we would not be able to detect the epicentre from other parts of the world the results wouldn't match.
Some info for you

My last name is Akers. My mother was adopted from Italy by my grandfather. He is a 32nd degree mason of Scottish decent. I never met my biological father, even though I know who he is. He is dead now and I have never heard his voice. I was born in Salem, MA of all places. My mother moved us away to Georgia when I was younger. My grandparents continued to help her financially even though she will never admit it. Every summer I would go back to MA and spend it there with my grandparents and attending the YMCA every day for summer camp. I was always more athletically gifted than most. My IQ was tested at 143 when I was 5. I did very well in school during my younger years. Really slacked off in HS and college. However, in high school I was All state in football and All American in Track and field. Anyways long story short I always found a way to be ok and my grandparents always helped me more than my other siblings. OK enough about my background. I am writing you guys today in hopes that you can help me uncover where I come from. What could have been done to me. I had an awakening a few days ago. My mind thinks much quicker now. I am working on astral projection. I found two people from my bloodline who happen to be very interesting. John Fellows Akers (bohemian member and IBM CEO) and Thomas Akers who was an Astronaut. I need to know what I am. I am not evil I only wish to help mankind.

Exactly! I like your thinking. Quickly writing it off as impossible means the individual put no thought into changing science.
You can't change water by calling it fire.
correct but there are numerous conditions under which each may occur same goes for the interior of the earth. Average Person only use 10% of their brain (so those who use the hollow headed remarks are actually the ones using less brain power than those who conceive intricate theories to explain the hollow earth reality), how much is there that humans dont know about what may be at work and therefore possible? 90% that's roughly 90% of the cosmos that is dark matter and energy ... coincidence? That's a plausible factor to entertain that the earth is roughly 80% hollow?
The point is that science has an explanation for all things that it has no real hard irrefutable evidence, that doesn't mean its accurate or even the ultimate truth if there is hard evidence - and don't quote the seismic activity I have already posted about that.
Any more questions?edit on 11-2-2012 by Spiratio because: (no reason given)

Please explain your theory....gravity won't allow a hollow earth?

Scientists often operate under extreme pressure to keep their mouths shut about what they really think. Especially if they want to be "top-paid."
And there is a case to be made for not going to school and choosing to be home-schooled - especially now with all the resources we have available to us. Formal education is controlled by the powers that be for the powers that be. It's about funding. Even science journals are dependent up corporate advertising.

This site operates off of information from a wide variety of sources - not just top-paid scientists.

I would suggest you do some research.
I good place to start would be Red Ice Creations: "Brooks Agnew - Hour 1 - North Pole Inner Earth Expedition in 2012."

You know there is a very large portion of the actual earth we haven't yet discovered or documented, how would this not be a possibility of a hollow earth? Nobody has explored it yet to find out, so in my opinion I see this as a possibility.....You have to throw out what you were taught by the "experts" growing up.....
Good find!
