|No scholar, nor any paleo-meteorologist, has yet determined or guessed what event could have occasioned the Biblical Famine. But one possible scenario suggests itself: a companion [[asteroid]] to the [[earth]] passed within the "Roche limit" of the earth or the [[moon]]. The tidal forces of the earth or the moon broke or "calved" it into fragments. Most of these fell to the moon and created the lunar "seas" and "mass concentrations" the moon has today – and also dropped the moon into a lower orbit and turned it to show the same face to the earth ever after. But one or two fragment(s) fell to earth. It (or they) kicked up a cloud of dust, which then disrupted the weather over central Africa. Critically, this stopped the [[rain]] from falling over the sources of the Nile, so that the Nile flowed less and for seven years could not properly inundate the bottom lands of Egypt. See [http://creationsciencehalloffame.org/defenses/ark-flood/energy-of-lunar-month/ Energy for the lunar month] at the [http://creationsciencehalloffame.org/ Creation Science Hall of Fame] for details.
