... for September 20, 1988, page C1, an article showed that cryogenically cold, super-conducting bodies repel. Two super-conducting materials were actually suspended below a magnet in air! The article stated, "As long as the chip stays cold enough, it will stay suspended." See figure 1 Figure 1 The Electro-Gravitic Theory of Celestial Motion & Cosmology The questions that suggest themselves are: Do magnetic fields, when they meet in the super-cold environment of space, also repel each other? Is space a kind of super-conducting medium? Although the answers to these questions are not known, I am working upon the assumption that at least the first question is answered in the affirmative. Hence ...
... drilling in the strict sense, i.e ., it involves alternate motion (see H. Grassmann, Worterbuch zum Rig-Veda [1955], pp. 976f.) as we have it in the famous Amritamanthana, the Churning of the Milky Ocean, and this very quality of India's churn and fire drill has had far-reaching influence on cosmological conceptions.]. So it is, indeed. But Rydberg, after establishing the etymology, has not followed up the meaning. The locomotive engineers and airplane pilots of today who coined the term "joy stick" might have guessed. For the Sanskrit Pramantha is the male fire stick, or churn stick, which serves to make ...

234. Propaganda And Scientific History [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... Spanish biographer of Columbus referred to the "famous but imaginary conference at the University of Salamanca and the College of St. Sebastian."5 Why did Morrison say that "since the commission consisted of men of learning, the sphericity of the Earth never came into question"? The answer is that these educated men were schooled in Aristotelean cosmology which held as its basic tenet that the Earth was a sphere. A.Pannekoek's A History of Astronomy, explains it: "Aristotle presents the structure of the universe as having perfectly radial spherical symmetry. The world is arranged according to spheres and spherical shells around a centre, [the spherical Earth]..... ...

... concept and Vsekhsviatskii's "heavy-element cores", periodically eruptively ejected, we ask again: Where do the fusion processes of Jupiter and Saturn take place? (For more confirmations of Velikovsky's Saturnian scenario from recent research, see "Voyager: Questions and Answers" by Martin Sieff, Workshop 3:3 , p. 1.) Anyone for Cosmology?On the question of "was there a Big Bang?" Dr Jayant Narlikar quoted Burbidge (Nature 1971): "Views of cosmology at any epoch are largely determined by the ideas of a few strong individuals, rather than by an objective appraisal of the information available." New Scientist 2/7 /81 records Dr ...

... to other civilizations, finding the same unexpected role of a polar god. Reinforcing the surprising conclusions of the above researchers was the subsequent work of others, among them Uno Holberg (Der Baum des Lebens), who documented the preeminence of the polar god in the ritual of Altaic and neighbouring peoples, suggesting ancient origins in Hindu and Mesopotamian cosmologies; (2 ) Leopold de Saussure (Les Origines de l'Astronomie Chinoise), who showed that primitive Chinese religion and astronomy honour the celestial pole as the home of the supreme god; Rene Guenon (Le Roi du Monde and Le Symbolisme de la Croix), who sought to outline a universal doctrine centering on the polar gods and ...
237. Introduction (In the Beginning: God) [Books]
... does not hold good any more. The school of comparative mythologists was forced to take refuge in the psychological theory because the actuality of worldwide cataclysms and their causation was unknown and inconceivable then. But the new school of explanatory mythology, upon whose tenets this book is based, can prove, by a system of checks derived from a new Cosmological Theory, that the similarities in the pictures presented in the myths are solely due to the fact that the same event was being described and not. caused by some mysteriously similar working of the untutored human mind. Even statements which seem irrelevant or extravagant are generally only due to certain peculiar aspects of the phenomena described. The Book of ...

... , when it was seen that in spite of the repeated tortures he would not agree even to a partial recantation, he was finally put to death. It must be kept in mind that in the famous passage (De immenso, VI, 19; Op. lat. I,2 ,229) in which Bruno sums up his cosmology with the motto veritas temporis filia (a motto that was later adopted by Galileo), he refers to the mentioned passage of Aristotle about comets and takes his stand with the opponents of Aristotle. In the work entitled Spaccio della bestia trionfante (which means The Expulsion of the Triumphant Beast, ' that is, Platonic and Aristotelian cosmology ...
239. Golden Age Canopy by Isaac Vail [Books]
... Greeks recognized an upper source of waters, to which they gave the name Okeanas, and tell us those waters ran all around the circular earth, we are certainly justified in testing the truth of the claim. When tested it is indeed satisfying to find such a dovetailing of testimony in the old records. The veriest elements of the old cosmologies harmonize with the thought that from the ocean that encompassed the earth "Flowed all rivers and every sea and all fountains and deep wells". In my other publications I have repeatedly shown that during canopy times it could not rain from clouds in the atmosphere as it rains today. A canopy shuts off the rain- making power of the ...

... by hard- working astrologers to nail down the perfect epicycles of the planets. Their math was accurate, their tools were the best available for the time, their results were impeccable. But the assumption behind their theory- that the earth was the center of the solar system- was wrong. Today, another assumption goes without question in cosmology. That assumption is the "recession factor"- Observation: for the nearest galaxies, the smaller diameter, fainter the galaxy, the higher the redshift. Conclusion: the farther the galaxy, the higher its redshift. Usual use of that conclusion: galactic distances can be determined by redshift- the higher the redshift, the farther ...
