Publisher's Synopsis
Rocks have become part of the common terrain around the world, but could some of them give clues into the makings of our solar system? Author Clifford Besson seeks to determine whether certain spherical rocks discovered in Manitoba, Canada in 2005 are, in fact, meteorites from outer space. His findings, gained from observation, scientific knowledge and published scholastic sources, is featured in his new book, Solar Big Bang. These days, a number of people have been seeing objects falling out of the sky. On Saturday, 23 April, 2005, during the daytime, about fifty or more people reported seeing and/or hearing a meteor explode overhead in the sky near St. Ambroise area of Manitoba, north of Portage La Prairie.... we will try to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that most ancient spherical rocks found on our planet are not manmade but were naturally made in space and not on the Earth. An astronomy enthusiast since he was a teen, Clifford guides readers through his explorative study into these meteorites, while also defining meteorites, sunspots and qualities of the sun. Readers will be most excited to see actual photographs of the meteorites in the book, accompanied by Clifford's explanation on telling signs that indicate the supposed "long-distance" travel of these unique rocks. Whether you are intrigued by the origins of meteorites, or are just interested in the versatility of our solar system, Solar Big Bang will be sure to heighten your scientific senses as you ask the question: "What if meteorites are among us, and we don't even know?" These clues have therefore helped immensely to understand the origins of spherical rocks, for each one of these rocks that were seen were said to have been spherical. Could it be that most rocks that are spherical are really meteorites?
