... hydrocarbons on meteorites and "hydrocarbons were subsequently found on meteorites" (The Velikovsky Affair, p. 237; H. H. Nininger, Out of the Sky, Dover Pub., 1959, pp. 89-90). 5) Sufficient carbohydrates fell in the Sinai desert for 40 years of nourishment. This subject will be discussed by Juergens below, though Velikovsky clearly indicated that carbohydrates precipitated throughout the world, not just in the Sinai, during the years following the first Venus-Earth encounter (Cf. "Ambrosia" in W in C). "The Maoris in the Pacific, the Jews on the border of Asia and Africa, the Hindus, the Finns, the ...

203. Stars in an Electric Universe [Journals] [Aeon]
... point where gravity can take over and stars are formed. Gravity of the Situation One of the constraints placed on the gravitational theory of star formation is that of achieving the tricky balance of producing objects of just the right mass range to stably transform hydrogen into helium and other heavier elements. The Electric Universe model follows the brilliant work of Ralph Juergens in which stars are manifestations of a cosmic glow discharge. [15] It does not suffer the problems of the gravitational or plasma model in which the proto-star has to retain sufficient heat to start a central nuclear fire. The temperature of the centres of stars is much too low to fuse hydrogen, so it is not surprising that ...

... zero' probability of occurring among terrestrial lightning strokes." Cloutier's argument is based, as I have shown, on total ignorance of the cause of terrestrial lightning. On the basis of my hypothesis, however, the clustering of power would be expected. [WT-original] Another argument for expecting lightning on Venus comes from the idea proposed by Juergens. He identified cometary tails with objects which are under enhanced electrical stress from the solar plasma due to the radial component of their movement toward or away from the Sun. [TT again] He was wrong, a common problem for Juergens. Comet tails consist of dust, and ionized gas, pushed away from the Sun by the ...
205. Proposed Variations on the Saturnian Configuration [Journals] [Aeon]
... That credit should rightly go to Ev Cochrane who correctly placed these two planets in the axis-sharing formation. Secondly, that the Saturnian system "moved in an orbit around the Sun" from its inception is something that has not yet been ascertained beyond a reasonable doubt. In fact, there has always been a possibility, first raised by Ralph Juergens, [118] that, originally, the Saturnian system, including Earth, originated in deep space outside the Sun's influence before it was "ensnared" within the present Solar System. This postulate has been winning recent support from Wallace Thornhill [119] and is now being seriously considered. And thirdly, none of the above mentioned ...

... may have felt the fire' was typical of any severe electric storm - thunder necessarily involves lightning. Now lightning discharges occur between cumulo-nimbus clouds, or between earth and the base of such a cloud. Where earth forms one of the electrodes and the discharge is particularly violent, a surface trench ( 'explosion channel') sometimes forms; Juergens [3 ] shows a photograph of one and argues that the Moon's sinuous rilles were formed by the same mechanism acting on a vastly greater scale. Another of his photographs [4 ] shows the Lichtenberg figure made on a golf green by lightning striking the metal flagpole - a fine tracery of seared grass. Both of these phenomena are ...
207. Indra and Brhaspati (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... perspective, there are also other possibilities. One is simply the idea that the perturbations could be minor effects of electrical or magnetic forces superimposed on the gravitational forces that are mainly responsible for the orbits. The source of such electrical or magnetic forces need not be a solid body but could be the sort of large-scale fields in space that Ralph Juergens envisioned.(3 ) Another rather speculative possibility is that an unknown body does exist beyond the orbit of Pluto, that it is on a highly elliptical orbit with its perihelion well inside the orbit of Pluto, and that it participated in at least one of the planetary interactions described by Velikovsky.(4 ) For example, the ...
208. Thoth Vol IV, No 5: March 15, 2000 [Journals] [Thoth]
... this in light of the "electric sun/star" hypothesis. We already know that the alleged rain of relativistic electrons responsible for the sun's surface temperature and magnetic field, according to the "electric sun/star" hypothesis, has as yet managed to remain undetected. Thornhill: By ignoring, or not troubling to find out about Juergens' model, we have here a "straw man", built upon an unspecified model. Juergens was at great pains to describe the model of a cathode- less glow discharge in a plasma. That was the specific model he chose on the basis of its match to all of the observed phenomena we call "the Sun" ...

... said in its first editorial statement, this journal owes its inception to the theories of Dr. Velikovsky. We promise you that this journal and its staff will do its utmost to ensure that the honors due him will be his. This issue contains a memorial to him, and also a short memorial to Dr. Livio Stecchini and Ralph Juergens. But we will never forget these great thinkers. This issue brings an end to the second year of publication. Again we want to thank all of you for your support! The first article, by Dr. Dirkzwager of Belgium, combines Classical knowledge with Velikovskian ideas and yields many innovative theories. The second contribution is by Zecharia ...

... stars, which are extremely electrical. Quasars have the highest of all redshifts, and there are giant plasmoids so are probably the most electric things in the universe. And don't starburst galaxies have rather high redshifts compared to non-starbursts on the same morphological types? Now we have a pulsar, which is the most electrically stressed star of all in Juergens' theory, having redshifts. We must now check to see if Herbig-Haro objects have a redshift (an HH-K effect, so to speak). WAL RESPONDS You can take it to the bank that intrinsic redshift is electrical in nature since it relies on lower orbital energies of electrons to give the desired effect. I think the story ...

... ) Home | Issue Contents Voyager: Questions and Answers Martin Sieff Why has Saturn's moon Mimas a huge 80 mile diameter crater with a raised peak in the middle? - Because it received a massive electrical discharge, probably from Jupiter, similar to those that caused crater/raised peak effects on the Moon and Mars. (See R. Juergens, "Of the Moon and Mars", PENSEE IVR IX, p.22-3.) Why are the outer (F-) ring of Saturn's dust-size particles "braided", so "defying the laws of orbital mechanics"? - Because they are electrically charged, and, with so small a mass, are heavily influenced ...

214. The Electro-Gravitic Theory of Celestial Motion & Cosmology, by Charles Ginenthal [Journals] [SIS Review]
... role in celestial mechanics. I did not find this theory as impressive as the factual contents; nevertheless this unusual book is enlightening in more ways than one. The subjects are in a rather unusual sequence, unlike most books covering a wide field of astronomy. It was disconcerting to find a long extract from a 1979 Kronos article by Ralph Juergens about the Sun, following a discussion on galaxies. This is probably out-of-date following Kortvelyessy's recent work, described later, but it might be considered of historical interest. Regrettably there is no index, the print size is very small and the copious notes and references are even smaller, which does not make for easy reading. A bright ...
215. CD-Rom Reviews [Journals] [SIS Review]
... '. However there is still a fundamental division between conventional astrophysicists, who tend to see electrical phenomena as secondary effects, and the proponents of the theory of The Electric Universe', who see electricity as the dominant influence on events. Wal Thornhill is well known in SIS circles and bases his work on the research of the late Ralph Juergens, who argued that the sky at night is lit by electricity' - the Sun and stars are powered by electric discharges between them and their surroundings. He also claimed that the craters and rilles found on the Moon and Mars are scars caused by electrical discharges during planetary close encounters like those described by Velikovsky. The Electric Universe is ...
216. Editor's Notes [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Thornhill is writing about a complementary area of interest: the role of electricity in the cosmos. This is tantalising territory: scientists now accept that plasmas and electric and magnetic fields are everywhere around us and some of the space probe images from Earth's neighbours are strongly suggestive of electrical activity. However some of the more radical theories (such as Juergens' electric sun') have run into problems and there is still much to be done in determining whether, as many suspect, the roles of gravity and electricity in the cosmos are linked. Charles Raspil comes at the subject from another angle: in ancient art he sees trisms' and other patterns which seem to suggest unusual electrical ...
217. Notices [Journals] [Kronos]
... Beginning with a report on the first public meeting of the SIS, held on March 19th at the Univ. of Leeds and dealing with the theme "Velikovsky and History," the SIS Review next presents a most important article by Roy Mackinnon on "The Inexact Science of Radiometric Dating". Mackinnon's lengthy discourse is an excellent pendant to Juergens' paper on "Radiohalos and Earth History". (Mackinnon makes one noticeable error, however, in thinking that Velikovsky ascribes a supernova phase to Saturn's earlier history. Actually, Velikovsky has discussed Saturn as once being a nova and nothing more. Otherwise, Mackinnon's article is an eye-opening mine of information.) "A Further Note ...

223. On Cosmic Electrical Charges [Books] [de Grazia books]
... sign, because of the gradual acceleration of the proton wind as it moves away from the Sun. However, this same phenomenon can be viewed as a flow of ions towards a surrounding region of negative electrical charge. Insofar as solar wind electrons have, if any, only trivial anisotropy in their motion and since detected cosmic-ray ions - which Juergens (1972) has described as the spent wind from the most luminous stars - outnumber cosmic-ray electrons by at least two orders of magnitude, it is logical to conclude that within the region of the Sun most electrons are occupied with sustaining the transaction tending to eliminate the solar cavity. These electrons are not free: they form a = ...

From: SIS Internet Digest 2001:2 (Sep 2001) Home | Issue Contents Our Electric Sun Don Scott DON SCOTT is a professor of Electrical Engineering, and became interested in the idea of an electrical sun after reading an article in Industrial Research magazine by Ralph Juergens, on plasmas; the Sun is a plasma (cloud of ionized gas), there are ionized particles (hydrogen ions) in space, but astronomers say this can't happen. But it appears that stars and galaxies tend to form strings: Birkeland currents, with stars being formed where the Z-pinch effect occurs [see "Electromagnetic collapse, problems of stability, emission of radiation and evolution of a dense ...

... reasonably claimed that the renaissance of scholarly interest in Velikovsky dates from that time. The new edition contains some fresh material by Dr Stecchini, who has considerably expanded his essay on cuneiform astronomical records to take account of some comments on the first edition by Malcolm Lowery (see discussion elsewhere in this issue). The contributions by de Grazia, Juergens and Velikovsky himself are reprinted without change. The new introduction serves to update the "Affair", and Dr de Grazia provides some interesting personal sidelights on his own involvement with Velikovsky's ideas - being particularly provocative on the topic of interdisciplinary science, which he sees as "neither hard' nor soft', but malleable". Virtually ...
