There is a research scientist named John Baumgardner, who works at the famous Los Alamos National Laboratories. His Terra computer simulation of continental drift is considered the world's best. He is also a creationist. In a year when federal grants were scarce for geologic research, Dr. Baumgardner received 120% of his proposed budget. (Terra has implications for continental ballistic missile trajectories.) He is allowed to spend up to 50% of his time on creation research. His model for Noah's Flood based on Terra involves the volcanic undersea ridge erupting all around the world at once. It predicted the presence of huge "cool" spots at the boundary of the earth's core, years before new tomagraphic imaging techniques discovered them.
There was one problem. Creationists could not prove how this eruption could have been triggered. We believed that an asteroid or comet hit the earth, maybe several at once. This is not too far-fetched, when you remember the multiple impacts we observed on Jupiter recently.
