Tomorrow I will interview J. Marvin Herndon, Geophysicist. Dr. Marvin Herndon was invited to the premier showing in Los Angeles of "The Core". In many ways, the upcoming release this Friday of The Core, was based on scientific data much of which was originated by Dr. Herndon himself.

In my conversation with Dr. Marvin Herndon when setting up the interview, my first question was his assessment of the accuracy depicted in the movie. His answer was it does indeed stay close to factual scientific studies. I also had a moment to ask his thoughts on my Earth-Sun 'equation' published in 1998. He agrees there is ample evidence to support this theory.

At the beginning of the 20th century, understanding the nature of the energy source that powers the Sun and other stars was one of the most important problems in physical science. Initially, gravitational potential energy release during protostellar contraction was considered, but calculations showed that the energy released would only be sufficient to power a star for a few million years; life has existed on Earth for a longer time. The discovery of radioactivity and the developments that followed led to the idea that thermonuclear fusion reactions power the Sun and other stars. As stellar thermonuclear reactions require ignition temperatures on the order of a million degrees Kelvin, gravitational potential energy release during protostellar contraction of dust and gas was assumed to be responsible for attaining ignition temperatures. No other energy source of sufficient magnitude was known at the time. Website: http://nuclearplanet.com/
