It is ignored by science because Brown’s theories are as non-scientific as they are non-Biblical. Much of what he professes defies the laws of physics.
Just one quick example of holes shot all in Brown’s theories.

Dr. Brown addresses all these points in his book which you apparently have not read.
A 10-mile thick granite crust could have been quite nearly impossible for mankind to drill through but it is not beyond the realm of possibilities...
Quite simply the physics account you linked to does not address all the details laid out by Dr. Brown. Sure it is incredible but much more possible and probable than eons of evolution.
one thing he clearly states is subterranean pillars to support the crust and a nearly perfect sphere with few mountain ranges no more than 1-mile high that would correspond to the location of the pillars.
from your link:
“Let’s go to physics class. As I understand your model, you have the earth constructed as follows: a solid center, a water layer, then above that, a layer of granite or basalt which ‘floats’ on the water. This is as shown below:
^ a mountain ps = 2.1 g/cc height = h
Earth’s crust (granite 2.65 g/cc, or basalt 3.3 g/cc) Thickness = T
Water (density 1.0 g/cc) Thickness = tw
Earth center (solid density > 3.3)
There are several things to notice about this situation. First, the crust must be absolutely impermeable to the water. There must be no earthquakes before the flood since the first crack in this sphere would allow the water to escape. This means that there must be no meteorites before the flood. And heaven help mankind if he ever were to have drilled into the crust for curiosity’s sake.
There must absolutely not have been any elevation differences.
Whoops ~ another glaring error your link fails to address is the nature of water surpassing 705 degrees farenheit and entering into the supercritical stage. Refer to page 118 of the 8th edition to see how all your problems are initially addressed with much more detail provided further into his book.
Non-scientific huh?! And yet one of the most thoroughly researched and cross-referenced research documents addressing challenges found in all of the major scientific disciplines.
well put. One other interesting thing is that there are flood stories among Caucasian peoples (Semitics, Indians,Iranis) but not amongs Africans or Mongoloids (East Asians or native Americans). Perhaps this is because the flood was the flooding of the Middle-East->Central Asia region where the Caucasians were clustered around?
