| | Two of the comets, Halley and Swift-Tuttle, have orbits that usually carry them far away from any interfering bodies. Statistical backtracking of them establishes that both would have been most likely to be at perihelion at the same time, in the year 3290 BC or as much as one hundred years earlier or later. According to the Hydroplate Theory, this, then, would be the date of their ''launch,'' therefore of the Great Flood. This has profound implications for [[Biblical chronology]]. | | Two of the comets, Halley and Swift-Tuttle, have orbits that usually carry them far away from any interfering bodies.
