so they know about the variability of the radiation the earth is exposed to but assume they know how much. how can they know for sure how much the earth was exposed to 5000 years ago? it's not constant change, it's varied.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
