What is EXPANSION TECTONICS?
4.5 Byr ~1 Byr ~250 Myr ~100 Myr Present
“A study of the structure and movement of the Earth's crust due to an increase in Earth radius”.

Is this Fact or Mere Coincidence?
“it is difficult to believe that chance alone can explain this fitting together of the continental margins” (Barnett, 1962)
“I have been continually amazed that the simplicity with which Earth expansion answers so much of the Earth's evolution has been so delayed in universal adoption” (Vogel, 1983).

Empirical Earth Radius
Dr James Maxlow – NPA 2012
Earth Radius Formula
Ra = (R0-Rp)ekt + Rp
Where:R0 = present Earth radius at time t0
Ra = ancient Earth radius at time ta
Rp = primordial Earth radius at time tp
= 1700 kilometres
t = time before the present (negative)k = a constant = 4·5366x10-9/year

Kinematics of Earth Expansion

Mass, Density & Surface Gravity
Dr James Maxlow – NPA 2012
Current Rates of Increase
Radius dR/dt0 = 22 mm/year
Circumference dC/dt0 = 140 mm/year
Surface area dS/dt0 = 3·5 km2/year
Volume dV/dt0 = 11,000 km3/year
Assuming a constant density and increasing mass Mass dM/dt0 = 60 x 1012 t/year
Surface gravity dg/dt0 = 3·4 x 10-8 msec-2/yr
Dr James Maxlow – NPA 2012
Scientific Dilemma Unbeknown to most scientists we have now
reached a critical point in the development of science. One seemingly trivial reorientation of scientific perspective, from a static radius Earth to an actively increasing Earth radius viewpoint, has the potential to completely negate the established consensus of opinion and scientific beliefs of today. (James Maxlow 2002)

Suggested Causal Mechanism
Dr James Maxlow – NPA 2012
A Challenge to Physics
To accept the challenge and find me a convincing “motor and mechanism” to explain
the observed empirical increase in Earth surface area
and radius through time.
