Well. let's have a look shall we:
Genesis 1:7
quote:
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
Mentions no canopy, it mentions waters above the firmament. This could easily mean Pluto, or Europa (Jupiter's moon) or comets, they're made up out of mostly ice, which is water. So, no canopy of water there. Try again.
Likely water ionizes and due the magnetic field as well in space there is a vacuum and even ice vaporizes not just water in a vacuum such as exists above the atmosphere.
I don't know what exactly you're on about here, but let me tell you that there is no way known to science to suspend water over the planet, so unless you want to win the nobel prize and come up with that way, I think you shouldn't mention it anymore.
It would not block photons but absorb photons. Presently the atmosphere today shields us from gamma radiations photons. right?
Even if you would be able to absorb enough photons in the water, they would still not explain the rapid decay rate, as, as said before by RAZD, photons don NOT change the RATE of decay.
Why not? heat rises but agree this water canopy before it came crashing down would of tended to trap heat much like a greenhouse slowing the escape of heat to space. Which is why you have tropical plant fossils showing they thrived under the north pole thousands not millions of years ago.
Why not? WHY NOT? because the water would've been cooked instantly, and evaporated, and it would still leave enough heat to boil the earth.
As for your "plants on the north pole" bit, there never were ANY plants at the north pole, there's no land there on which they could possibly grow.
