The latest geological research shows that scientists cannot account for how a large percentage of the heat generated in the Earth’s molten core is created.
A thousand miles and more beneath our feet, something is throwing off a huge amount of heat, and we do not know what it is.

During a routine flight on June 28th, 1942, during the Second World War, Flight Sergeant Dennis Copping of the Royal Air Force’s Egyptian 260 Squadron suddenly and inexplicably turned his fighter plane into the deep desert of North Africa, and vanished.
Now, seventy years later, his Kittyhawk P-40 has been found, parked on the trackless sands where Copping left it before, apparently, setting out for the remainder of his journey on foot.
What was calling to the airman from that wasteland?

Recent excavations of some of the famous Easter Island statues have revealed that below the heads are bodies, and the bodies are marked with hieroglyphs.
In the opinion of this correspondent, researchers should consider carefully that the history of Rapa Nui is marked government by cult, as well as by sudden population crashes, usually attributed to overexploitation and epidemics, before they pursue these reckless investigations any further.
