Scientific paper

SOME fifty years ago Kelvin announced that the temperature of the earth could not have been anything like its present value for more than some 20-30 million years. This estimate was based upon three independent considerations, namely, the temperature gradient inside the earth's crust, the amount of tidal friction, and the total amount of energy radiated by the sun.
