  Earth Mysteries
The irony is that many of the subjects clustered within the folds of earth mysteries are valid and authentic lines of research; it is their juxtaposition and cross-boundary treatment that present one of the problems to the orthodox mind.
When the earth mysteries area is considered by sceptics, it is these negative factors which are used to colour it in their minds, and so the whole field is ridiculed and excluded from serious consideration.
Because earth mysteries is outside the mainstream, there are no institutionalised universal controls to separate the wheat from the chaff contained within it, unlike established disciplines.

Nevertheless, “alternative archaeology” and the study of earth mysteries has helped to fuel a popular interest in the distant past and in preserving natural and cultural landscapes, and, in some measure, has helped to correct earlier views of prehistory which had characterized the ancient world as a time of toil, superstition, and ignorance.
Another subcategory of earth mysteries researchers has sought to confirm archaeologist Marija Gimbutas’s hypothesis of an ancient Goddess civilization, discovering imagery associated with “the Goddess” in landscape formations and folklore as far and wide as England (notably Silbury Hill) and Ireland, islands in the Mediterranean, and North and South America.
Earth mysteries researchers, in contrast, have tended to ignore archaeologists’ growing knowledge of the cultural, functional, and chronological contexts of ancient sites, while doggedly pursuing their overarching hypothesis of a lost Golden Age.

 Inner earth mysteries (1)
The outermost layers of the earth have a highly complex, irregular, inhomogeneous structure; they are divided by faults into a mosaic of separate, jostling blocks of different shapes and sizes, generally a few hundred kilometres across, and of varying internal structure and strength.
The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s² at the earth's surface and the prevailing view is that it rises to a maximum of 10.4 m/s² at the core-mantle boundary (2900 km), before falling to zero at the earth's centre.
To explain the offset between the earth's geomagnetic axis and the spin axis, some scientists maintain that the earth's overall field may be a combination of a central, dynamo-created dipole field, aligned with the rotation axis, and several variable dipole fields located in the outermost portions of the core.

 Earth Mysteries
One of the oldest earth mysteries was 'what shape is it?' Eratosthenes, in 240 BC, was able to prove the sphericity of the earth and estimate its size to a reasonable margin of error, by comparing the angle of the sun at two distant locations simultaneously.
Aristotle knew that the earth was spherical, citing the horizon, the Earth's circular shadow during lunar eclipses, and other phenomena.

Exploration beneath the Earth's crust has demonstrated that the Earth is definitely not hollow (sorry guys, the evidence here is too strong...)

But current data suggests that O is almost exactly equal to 1, perhaps due to the mysterious "missing mass" which may or not be neutrino-filled "dark matter." Though it seems trivial, the stars are far apart enough that their gravitation does not preclude the stability of solar systems.
