Various fine sizes and quantities <strong>of</strong> these blue-grey ‘Hematite balls’ have been found in surface material lying<br />

around the perimeters <strong>of</strong> Martian craters. Geologists try to explain these through various mineral deposition,<br />

weathering and chemical process that are all tied to earth-bound reasoning, but it just so happens that these<br />

blueberries can be re-produced in the laboratory by exposing Hematite to powerful electric discharges [6-62] . The<br />

main experiments in this area have been conducted by the American Physicist Dr. C J Ransom, one example <strong>of</strong><br />

which produced the result shown in the previous image.<br />

The fact is that the vast majority <strong>of</strong> craters are circular due to being formed by a plasma discharge acting<br />

vertically on the surface <strong>of</strong> large solid bodies. Where significant and sustained current density is involved,<br />

the natural rotating action <strong>of</strong> the Birkeland current is what breaks up and scours out a depression that displays<br />

telltale indications <strong>of</strong> a powerful rotating action being involved.<br />

Take for instance Euler crater on the Moon. Here we see indications <strong>of</strong> a<br />

rotating action that has left a distinctive stepped spiral pattern around the<br />

crater’s inside wall together with an isthmus connecting the inner bottom<br />

edge <strong>of</strong> the crater to its central peak which itself is a feature that also<br />

suggests a bifilar rotating force has been at work. Note the lack <strong>of</strong> significant<br />

debris around the crater and the light coloured powdered appearance <strong>of</strong> the<br />

immediate surrounding area. This does not resemble the aftermath <strong>of</strong> a<br />

powerful physical impact at all, and a vast number <strong>of</strong> other craters and<br />

the areas around them show similar evidence. I suggest that overall, we<br />

have tended unthinkingly to accept the standard explanations for cratering<br />

without feeling a need to look closely at the detail in front <strong>of</strong> our eyes.<br />

Craters on Mercury, the Moon and Mars are said to have been formed mainly during a supposed event in ancient<br />

times that has come to be known as ‘The Late Heavy Bombardment’ [6-63a] . This is actually another fiction; it is<br />

an event dreamt up as an explanation for the strange pattern <strong>of</strong> cratering found on those bodies, especially on<br />

the Moon and Mars where one side <strong>of</strong> both these bodies is more heavily cratered than the other. Interestingly,<br />

the story around this fictitious event supplies no explanation as to why cratering on the Earth is found to be so<br />

different from cratering on the Moon, which <strong>of</strong> course is presumed to be its <strong>of</strong>fspring. One would think that<br />

where two bodies have always been physically close to one another and one <strong>of</strong> these is bombarded by a shower<br />

<strong>of</strong> flying rocks that is <strong>of</strong> great enough extent to also affect Mercury and Mars at the same time, then the other<br />

body, in this case the Earth, would similarly have been affected, but this is not the case. Cratering on the Moon<br />

is definitely not like here on Earth so I suggest the ‘Brothers Grimm’ would have been impressed by this tale.<br />
