1811 Mississippi Embayment Impact Event

[Kalopin]

O.K., Here goes.

Growing up in Memphis Tn. I have heard probably about every story concerning the earthquakes that had happened years ago. As Sir Winston Churchill had once stated "It is a riddle wrapped in mystery, inside an enigma". It is my belief, though, that there is much more to these events. In the years 1811-1812 there were many catastrophes happening all over our planet. Many believed that The Great Comet of 1811 was responsible. After studying the evidence, I am inclined to agree.

I would like to first ask you, when you may have a moment, to go to a satellite view. As unbelievable as this may sound, the topography of the entire Mississippi River Valley is actually the result of a meteor impact to Northern Mississippi coming from the dust tail of Comet C/1811 F1. This meteor consisted mainly of ice, sand, smaller rocks, and some boulder-sized, only about half melted coming in through the atmosphere from south-southeast at a low trajectory and impacted on a frozen lake with soil horizons being only of gravel, sand, dirt, and on top of The Artesian Wells [water], greatly influencing the outcome.

If you would, please go to the top-right of Marshall County [Concord Church is on the northwest rim]. Although the immediate crater is somewhat difficult to make out, due to tree growth, erosion, and development, once you begin to pan out, notice how all topography encircles the proposed crater site. All the rivers to the north encircle the area, the man-made lakes to the south run from east to west beneath the impact and is where the land was pulled and split apart by the blast. This is also the reason that The Tennessee River flows back northward. Follow the Tennessee River down through Alabama to where it turns upward and notice how you can still see the old river bed that ran south. Follow it around and notice all the lines that go around the impact coming from, what must have been, a massive shockwave immediately after impact.

At least this is what I have observed. It is also a fact that at the center of all these stratus lines, on the northwest rim of the stucture many rocks have been found that appear to be meteorites, impactites, and other unusual stones. I am interested to see if you think this is a possibility. There really is much more to this story, so if this may interest you you can find the evidence at http://www.wix.com/koolkreations/kalopins-legacy ,documents and links, "A Few Comments on 1811" or just search "Kalopins Legacy". Find out what an amazing story this truly is.

Sounds interesting, but if You could give some coordinates that I could put into go ogle map for ex. it would be even more so.

34* 58' 31.38"N x 89* 24' 17.15" should take you to a small field on the northwestern part of the proposed crater basin [it's just off of Dio Rd.]. It is quite a complex crater. It is my belief that this meteor came in at such an angle that from the impact it hit the continental shelf at some point above Dyersbueg Tn. and was aimed directly toward Reelfoot Lake, sending out a shockwave from the entire length of the impact.

I understand the current theories try to say that this was a failed rift, but the fault lies in thhe middle of The North American Plate against the direction of the edges of the plate and just ends on either side, coming seemingly from nowhere. The main problem with the "failed rift" theory is that there is no uplift and no subduction zone, which has been rather baffling to many seismologists. Although this may or may not have already been a seismic region, that is really besides the issue. This could have been just the initial mechanism to joilt the faultline.

Currently the theory on the river valleys' topography is that an ice sheet somehow pulled the land upward against gravity and away from the equator [The Upper Mid-land Drift, The Upland Formation] as the ice sheet retreated, which is quite an impossibility. Recently a geologist from Illinois stated that the last ice sheet never made it down that far. Another theory is that an inland sea formed this topography over many thousand years, although these features would have been badly eroded in such a time frame.

Currently theories on the lights [going across the skies] are that they were caused by quartz crystals, gas pockets, ball lightning, and/or charged rock. Although all these may have occurred, the lights would not have been seen from several states over, as was reported. These lights were seen in North Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky...

Recently several seismologists have made the claim that these earthquakes could not have been that strong, because this fault appears to be incapable of producing such a large quake and wanted to reduce the estimated strength from a 7.5-8.5 to 6.5-7.2. They also said that people exaggerated when saying the churchbells rang throughout the northeast. They are wrong. This impact/quake was much more powerful than was reported. This event actually killed many countless thousands of Cherokee, Choctaw, and mainly The Chickasaw, as this was mainly Chickasaw Territory. This has gone mainly unnoticed.

This event affected history in so many ways and without ever being realized. It is definitely an intricate puzzle, that I believe can and will be solved.
