10,000 B.C: Understanding Earth’s Layers

Professor Challenger, who made the Earth scream with his pain machine in a story by Arthur Conan Doyle, gave a talk after mixing books on geology and biology. He said the Earth is like a body without organs. This means it has many different things moving around inside it.

But that was not the main point. He talked about something important that happens on Earth called stratification. This means there are layers, like belts, that form and organize things. These layers capture and hold things together, like black holes.

Professor Challenger read a sentence from a geology book. He said we need to remember it: "A surface of stratification is a plane of consistency lying between two layers." The layers are strata and they come in pairs. The surface between them is a special area that connects them.

God is like a lobster with two claws. Strata come in pairs, and each layer has two parts. This double articulation means layers have two steps: first, they pick units from moving particles, and second, they make stable structures from these units.

In geology, the first step is sedimentation, which makes layers of sediment. The second step is folding, which turns sediment into rock.

obviously a lot is lost, but it exceeded my expectations to be honest
