Planetary chord analysis evaluates whether distant geological systems may be compared through linear, arcuate, or great-circle relationships across Earth's surface and interior geometry.
This framework examines chord-style continuity using measurable constraints including geographic alignment, structural persistence, topographic extremes, trench-basin relationships, deformation corridors, and regional geological transitions.
Reference systems include the Aegean region of Greece and western T端rkiye, Mount Everest in Nepal and Tibet, the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific, the Dead Sea Basin between Israel and Jordan, and the Himalayan-Zagros-Arabian corridor.
The purpose of this framework is not to establish a planetary impact mechanism. It is to define a method for evaluating whether the geometry itself is structured enough to support deeper investigation.
Within ABC Sequencing, planetary chord continuity acts as a bridge between local observations and global comparative geometry.
The scientific standard remains deliberately restrained: if the geometry fails under measurement, the interpretation must yield to the data.
This paper formalizes planetary chord continuity as a testable geometric framework and prepares the sequence for direct analysis of path coherence, distance relationships, and entrance-to-exit structural comparison.
