What metal was the firmament composed of? At Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory they did some experiments with water. They compressed the water. The oxygen and hydrogen atoms separated and the oxygen was distinguishable by its blue color. The effect, however, on the hydrogen atoms, when compressed under super cold conditions and with energy added, was that the atoms bonded into a crystalline structure that was transparent with opaque veins of hydrogen throughout. Other laboratories followed up and confirmed this.^94/25 They found that the transparent metal hydrogen was not conductive but that the opaque metal hydrogen was superconductive.^96/1463

Superconductivity is a very special phenomena. The firmament was transparent. The opaque hydrogen metal was only in thin veins throughout the firmament.^96/1463 The conductive hydrogen has a very special purpose in the firmament. Acting like a repelling magnet to the earth, these veins of opaque hydrogen held the firmament ten miles above the surface of the earth in suspension.^{97/Cover, 94/10}

When crystalline hydrogen is energized it gives off a gentle glow that is 6365 angstrom magenta (pink). This color can often be seen at sunrise and at sunset as a pink glow. This happens as a result of water molecules in the atmospher becoming charged as a result of the lower level intense rays of the sun’s energy passing through them. As the sun’s rays pass through them you see blue sky because of the oxygen, but during sunrise and sunset, for a short period, because of these lower level intense rays of the sun, the energized hydrogen overpowers the oxygen and you see a pink glow in the horizon.^97/19 What this suggests is that before the flood when the firmament was in place above the earth, you would see a pink sky instead of a blue one. Also on the dark side of the earth there would be a gentle pink glow at night.

When this level of pink is applied to glasses and you receive light through them, the end result is that your brain produces neuralepanephrom which is a neural transmitter. The end result is that the individual looking through these glasses, especially with dyslexia problems, find this problem corrected to some degree since dyslexia is a neural transmission problem. It has been found to also help people with Attention Deficit Syndrom problems to the point that they no longer needed to use their medication to help correct the problem.⁶³

When one wears these glasses and looks at the world through them, blue lines strike in front of the retina and red lines strike directly on the retina and as a result colors are enhanced. The world is a more vivid, brighter place to live in. Through the pink glasses you get the full spectrum of colors, not just pink. This means that the sky before the flood with the hydrogen metal firmament was pink but all around you, you saw all the colors of whatever you were looking at, not everything dominated by pink.

Another phenomena of the hydrogen transparent crystalline structure was that not only did it allow the full spectrum of light through, but it filtered out the short wave radiation and became fiber optic meaning that it transferred the energy of this light throughout the firmament. This means that when the sunny side received light from the sun that this light was transferred throughout the firmament, at a diminishing rate of course, to the other side so that there was a soft glow of pink on the dark side. This explains also the meaning of Genesis 1:16 which states, "And Elohim made the two great lights, the greater light to govern the day, and the lesser light to govern the night." This would be a more correct interpretation of this passage since the moon is not always visible at night. The soft pinkish glow of the firmament at night meant that there was no midnight darkness as we now know it. This meant that dusk ambient glow carried through all night long. It also meant that the stars would be seen in more vivid detail because the shorter waves were filtered out and a photo multiplier of the full color spectrum of the stars could be seen. This solves other major problems because the firmament filtered out the destructive shorter wave length radiation.

Creation Scholars such as Dr. Russel Humphreys, Dr. Thomas Barnes and other outstanding creation scientists have shown clearly that the decrease of strength of the magnetic field has been decreasing exponentially which indicates that creation was just a short time in the past, from 6,000 to 10,000 years ago.⁹⁸

If the Creator designed the creation just a few thousand years ago, and if the magnetic field collapsed at the time of the flood and then increased slightly during the time of Christ's visit to the earth evidenced in the rock and then has continued to decay exponentially since then, this brings up the problem that if the magnetic field has been exponentially decaying since Creation, that means that the Creator wrote into the design a formula that would in a short time disrupt the optimal expression of the life forms.^82/75 In Russia and the United States, scholars have found that living systems depend on the strength of the earth's magnetic field. In fact, at present it is so low in intensity that it is resulting in cellular communication being disrupted and insufficient.

Dr. Baugh's Model, Creation in Symphony, addresses the problem like this: It addresses the issue from the standpoint of Your personal life and well being. On the second day of creation, the firmament begin to assimilate the short wave radiation and share that energy with the magnetic field on which that firmament rode with super conductive levitation. That means that it was constantly re-energized as living systems used its energy. Because this energy from heaven energized the firmament, it means that all the stellar stars and galaxies in the heaven all contributed to the life and benefit of man. Also the firmament over the earth absorbed ultraviolet radiation so that we would not suffer decay from its exposure. At the time of the flood, however, because the firmament was destroyed, and thus no means of recharging the magnetic field around the earth combined with the expansion of the earth at the time of Peleg, ever since then there has been an exponential decay of the magnetic field strength around the earth. Since Jesus Christ's visit upon the earth the decay has been steady.

This also solves the problem of carbon 14. Any time a bone is found, the news media very rapidly reports that very little carbon was found in it, therefore that means that it is extremely old. But Creation teaches that the universe is quite young, only six-thousand years old. The basic ultraviolet radiation which comes in to us today is a problem for us. Cancer is formed on the surface of the skin by mutational damaging change. But it also does something else: we lost the firmament at the time of the flood, it collapsed and our means of re-energizing the EMF also collapsed. Subsequently over a period of centuries we lost the suspension of water molecules in the upper atmosphere to such a degree that ultraviolet radiation streams in at an alarming rate. Not only does that ultraviolet radiation harm living systems by generating cancer, but it also creates free radicals that we ingest that bond to the cellular structure, even to the DNA. Radicalized oxygen is a major problem that bonds to almost any chemical agent it comes in contact with. We ingest all this and are damaging ourselves to a major degree.⁹⁹

The lose of the firmament also did something else. The loss of the canopy and the influx of ultraviolet radiation charges particles in the upper atmosphere. These charged particles cause actual neutrons to be emitted and then is assimilated by nitrogen 14 in the upper atmosphere. In turn nitrogen 14 expels an electron or photons and in the process it transmutes to Carbon 14.¹⁰⁰ Carbon 14 is not normal in the life chain. Carbon 12 and Carbon 13 are normal in the life chain. Carbon 14 is radio active.

The principle is that if you find something with very little carbon 14, that means it has been around for a very long time, but this is not true since we know that the firmament was there in the Creation model. Since we know that the firmament would have filtered out the ultraviolet radiation, that means that the primary generation of Carbon 14 would not have been functional at all. That means that if you find something with very little carbon 14, it simply means it was deposited approximately at the time of Noah's flood. It does not mean that it is extremely old at all, but in fact very recent within the last 6,000 years.

Wolfgang Smith, Ph.D. Physicist and Mathematician, recently wrote in a science journal:

"A growing number of respectable scientists are defecting from the evolutionist camp. Moreover, for the most part these experts have abandoned Darwinism, not on the basis of religious faith or Biblical persuasions, but on strictly scientific grounds."^101/1

There is a basis lacking for evolutionary plausibility. There is a basis solidly entrenched in scientific research supporting the Creation model.

An article in Discover magazine shows that their is a build up of ice crystals ten miles above the earth's surface. These ice particles are consistent in large sheet layers. This illustrates scientifically that sheets of water crystals can and do build up along the magnetic field above the earth's surface that reflect the glow of planetary structures and the glow of the sun.^{102, 103, 98}

The EMF, when energized, pinches, becomes tighter in its magnetic lines of force.¹⁰⁴ Because the EMF no longer has a structure for recharging the firmament, these magnetic lines of force are weakened and therefore stretch out 40,000 miles into space. The exception is during strong solar activity which temporarily strengthens the magnetic lines of force and tightens them slightly. What this shows is that cosmic energy does share in recharging the earth's magnetic field if there is a mechanism to keep it in place.
