question
Bishop James Ussher

Catastrophism (Cuvier)
answer
The theory was created by Cuvier and the catastrophists believe that the earth was made 6000 years ago when there was a big catastrophe with calamities beyond compare -speed up time or the origin of earth. You're not going to let go of 6,000 years.
question
Uniformitarianism (Hutton)
answer
The theory was created by Hutton and the uniformists believe that the earth is older than 6000 years because when observing earth's changes now, nothing happens fast -origin of the earth takes time (lots of it) -Don't cram time -The things you see today have occurred in the past. -Hutton hired an artist to go around Europe and pain rocks and noticed they didn't change a lot over time

Who was the Father of Geology
answer
Chalres Lyell
question
Charles Lyell
answer
"Father of Modern Geology" who wrote the "Principles of Geology", which was the 1st definitive book, in 1830 which talks about how processes happen at different speeds and intensities -saw both sides of catastrophism and uniformitarism -voice of reason that the world processes occurs at different speeds and intensities
question
Nicolas Steno
answer
one of the first to grasp the length of time required to create the geology of the modern world; noted the resemblance of tongue stones to the teeth of a great white shark; -one of the first scientists to consider how objects could become buried in layers of rock; first to realize that layers of rock formed as horizontal strata; claimed that the superposition of strata takes place according to age and that any deviation is due to later alteration, like an earthquake or volcano. Steno's Law of Superposition The horizontal layers represent a time sequence of fossils. (modern geology) -the new on top and old at bottom unless something natural disturbs it --proposed tha ll a rock and minerals were originally fluid and got trapped

Nebular Hypothesis
answer
An idea of the evolution of the planets that says that planets were formed a long time ago from condensing gaseous nebula because the dense metallic elements, like iron and nickel, sank toward the centers packing in the gases turning from liquids to solids - for juvian planets there is a strong gravitational pull that keeps the rotating gases into a sort of planet formed from a giant cloud of gases and dispersed solid particles. -iron and nickel toward the center = meteoroid
