Preferred term

Thomas C. Chamberlin  

Definition

  • THOMAS C. CHAMBERLIN was an American glacial geologist and educator who, at the turn of the 20th century, challenged the generally accepted Laplacian theory that the Earth was formed by hot gases and was gradually becoming cooler. He suggested the plan-etesimal hypothesis, arguing that the planets were formed after a star passed near the Sun, pulling away material from both bodies that later condensed into the planets. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Warming and Climate Change; Chamberlin, Thomas C.]
