PLANCKS' POSTULATE " that energy does not occur in a continuous stream , on the contrary, it can only occur in fixed , discreet amounts (quanta) and that quanta grow larger as the wavelength get smaller " ( approximately doubling and halving )

examples... for 100 metre wavelengths 100 quanta for 50 metre wavelengths 200 quanta for 25 metre wavelengths 400 quanta

classical mechanics ( analogue )   that as the suns mass dissipates ( 4 million tons every second ) the gravitational pull on the earth decreases accordingly ( newton's third "law" ) so that a gradual increase of the distance between of the earth of the sun occurs micro second by micro second

quantum mechanics ( digital )   that no change in position can occur until a minimum energy exchange ( planck’s constant or a multiple of it ) has taken place this means that when the sun's mass decreases by a certain amount its gravitational hold on the earth causes the earth to reposition itself in a quantum jump movement which causes the flood
