Response: It does not answer the second. If flood water fell from a canopy high above the atmosphere, where did that water go after the flood? Somehow transporting this water back into outer space or suddenly forming deep ocean basins after the flood is hard to imagine or explain. However, the phrase “the fountains of the great deep” implies that the flood water came from subterranean sources. Many have probably rejected the flood account because they could not imagine where the flood water, which covered all the mountains, went. Canopy theories have contributed to this difficulty. Drop in Longevity. A canopy that could shield the earth from harmful radiation might explain the long human life-spans before the flood. Perhaps after the canopy collapsed during the flood, radiation struck humans, lowering their longevity from about 900 years to 70 years. Response: If this happened, we would expect an immediate drop in life spans after the flood. But notice on that for twelve generations af
