Topic: Moving Rocks

This is interesting. Reminds me of a story I read many moons ago about a tomb that had within it coffins that would change position on their own. So what do you suppose is going on here?:

Re: Moving Rocks

Saw a documentary on it. When it rains, especially heavy the ground is so dry that the rain causes flash flooding, which pushes the rocks around. I know the body pretty decent but forget about the rest so seems plausible to me.

Re: Moving Rocks

Some of these rocks are 700 lbs, though. The rain thing is just a theory they say. Hard to believe wind and rain could do this.

What if there's a constant hum or slight vibration?

Re: Moving Rocks

I think Haven is probably on the right track. Wind and rain could not move rocks this heavy. It could weather them away over decades, but it couldn't push them.

Perhaps there are forces at work in death valley, natural energetic forces, which simultaneously account for the movement of the rocks as well as its scorching hot weather patterns? I'm no geologist, but nor am I a geomancer.

Re: Moving Rocks

(shrugs) Like I said I don't know but the ground would get a thin layer of mud or because of the dust maybe more like a wet silt, which would reduce friction. So it still seems plausible to me. Could there be more going on? Sure, but I'm not capable of figuring that out. So I will leave that to the researchers or whoever that want to figure it out.

Now that's an idea. Very interesting.

Loud humming has been heard coming from deep within the earth in various places around the world. Some of the people that I have heard talk about this said that to them these sounds sounded artificial as opposed to anything they could imagine or theorize might be natural. I find this intriguing because where I grew up  I would sometimes hear a very loud and disturbing hum very late at night or wee hours of the morning when it was still dark. Not sure if it was from within the earth or above, in the sky, but the whole house shook with it. Vey creepy.  It was even on the local news at one point because so many people heard it. Many of us had a good chuckle when the official misinformation that  "They"  tried to spoon feed the citizens was that (suddenly, one day there appeared) fish in the bay that made that sound (that we could hear for miles, of course) while they were mating. That's original at least. LOL!!

Needless to say it was a VERY disturbing sound-very unearthly and every time I heard it, I became terrified.

Maybe I can find some interesting web pages about this topic and hollow earth.

Re: Moving Rocks

Judging by the trails of the rocks, the rocks have experienced friction at least from having to push the clay in front of them to their sides. There must have been some counterforce to propell the rocks forward. If this force was a mudstream pushing the rock from behind, I don't think the trail would have looked like this. The mudstream would have filled up the trail and probably leave a small "hill" of sand at the rock itself. A wet/muddy surface can get very slippery though, but that still does not make rocks move by themselves. I think wind alone does not push the rock hard enough to make the rock push mud aside. Wind can be powerful but a rock has a relatively aerodynamic shape.

Vibrations will make it much more easier for the rocks to move (try putting sand on a flat board above a speaker (if possible subwoofer) making a low bass noise). I think this is related to dynamic and static friction. The friction experienced to start moving a still object is higher than the friction of an object that is already moving. Vibrations would push the rock upwards all the time, reducing the static friction and making movements more likely. It would be interesting to setup some infrasonic and ultrasonic sound measuring equipment there. I suspect however that whoever is making that sound, does not want you peeking around (secret military facility, alien outpost, corporate zombie-making facility resident evil style, etc.).

Are there any top-view maps of rock movements over the years? It would be interesting to see if there was some sort of pattern in it.

Re: Moving Rocks

Well, I was wondering why no one has set up video surveillance in places like that one or this one [scroll down to the pictures]???:

Re: Moving Rocks

I think that a strong enough hum to move a large rock would be detectable with the right equipment.  Though maybe they dont want anyone to know?

Well, that would explain it!  Anyone getting seasick...er, landsick?
