ECDO — Exothermic Core-Mantle Decoupling + Dzhanibekov Oscillation
hypothesis
A self-published 2026 theory claims the Earth could suddenly flip over in less than a day — but the physics doesn't hold up.
Who they are
Roger Cunningham's 2026 self-published model (in his book 'Inversion'), abbreviated ECDO.
What they do
It claims heat-releasing changes deep inside the Earth's core let the outer shell suddenly slip and flip 104-180 degrees in under 24 hours, supposedly tying together flood myths, ancient stone alignments, and modern climate oddities.
How it works
The engine says the proposed physical mechanism fails when tested against standard rules of how rotating planets behave, so it treats the model not as real science but as a cultural or story-like object.
Why it matters
It's a case of a dramatic 'end of the world' idea that spreads as a meaning-making story rather than a demonstrated fact; the engine deliberately files it as a cultural artifact, not a truth.
The engine's record — word for word
Roger Cunningham's 2026 self-published model (book: 'Inversion') asserting exothermic phase transitions in the outer core reduce CMB friction, letting the mantle/crust decouple and execute a sudden (<24 hr) 104-180 degree Dzhanibekov flip — unifying flood myth, megalith alignment and modern climate anomalies into one georotational system. Physical mechanism FAILS under standard rotational + geodynamical mechanics; functions as a structured semiotic/cultural artifact. [TIER CLAIM; Apex (b) semiotic artifact] [Report #103 (ECDO)]
