Named Kohoutek after its discoverer, this comet- after first passing 14 million miles from the sun- will approach within about 75 million miles of the earth in mid-January.

172. The Road to Saturn (Excerpts from an Autobiographical Essay) [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon I:3 (1988) Home | Issue Contents The Road to Saturn (Excerpts from an Autobiographical Essay)Dwardu Cardona PART II I 1977 saw the publication of George Michanowsky's The Once and Future Star. In this work Michanowsky maintained that the rise of civilization and the origin of religious beliefs owe their impetus to the sudden appearance of a bright light in the sky. But the similarity to the theory of Saturn's flare-up ends there. Michanowsky's theory was based on the remains of a supernova, in the form of a pulsar, discovered in 1968 by the Molonglo Radio Observatory in Australia. The pulsar was detected in the southern constellation Vela and thus received the ...
173. On the Disproportion between Geological Time and Historical Time Part One - Of Apes and Men [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the beginning of man and the Earth and attributing that beginning to the will of some god or gods. The other is the philosophical or atheistic model, purporting to be a rational explanation of the world and attributing all things to the workings of Nature. In the first model the beginning is an historical event and the Earth is of recent origin. In the other the beginning is beyond the reach of human memory and the Earth is ancient, allowing sufficient time for Nature to act as a substitute Creator. The purest (and also the oldest) form of the historical model is that in the Book of Genesis. It is monotheistic, focused on God and man, objective ...
... From: The Mysterious Comet by Comyns Beaumont CD Home | Contents Part Three: Volcanic Powers And Limitations V - Volcanic Islands and their Origin EARTHQUAKES occur more frequently north of the Equator than south of it, and possibly owing to the inclination of the earth's axis, from the vernal to the Autumn Equinox more seismic movements occur in the Northern Hemisphere during summer months than in the winter period, and, correspondingly, as records go, more of such movements occur in the Southern Hemisphere in their summer period. This is not invariably the case, as, for instance, the Lisbon Earthquake of November 1, 1755, but it is frequently so. Leaving aside the intensely ...

... also like to mention the work done by Maureen and Graham Hope in recording and later editing the resultant hours of tapes, both at this and our previous meeting. This has enabled us to inaugurate a new service for members whereby those unable to attend such meetings can still participate by purchasing tapes of selected talks through the Book Service. The origins of Human Society In the morning Chris Knight, an anthropologist, gave us a fascinating glimpse of the history of early man through the spy-glass of his radical theory of The Origins of Human Society. The ladies present were very pleased to learn that, according to Chris Knight, women created culture, something we have long felt to be ...
176. TOWARDS A SCIENCE OF MYTHOLOGY: VELIKOVSKY'S CONTRIBUTION [Journals] [Aeon]
... 1992) Home | Issue Contents Towards a Science of Mythology: Velikovsky's Contribution Ev Cochrane When all is said and done it may well turn out that Velikovsky's most enduring claim to fame will be his singular contribution to comparative mythology; specifically, the thesis that many ancient myths commemorate spectacular cataclysms associated with the various planets. This is truly an original thesis, with little if any precedent in the writings of previous scholars. (1 ) As is the case with any truly seminal work, Worlds in Collision raises as many questions as it answers. Indeed, questions inspired by Velikovsky's work have since launched hundreds of studies, more than one of which portends a revolution in our understanding ...
177. Evolution from Space [Articles]
... SIS Meeting 24th March 1984 Afternoon Session Evolution from Space Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe Interdisciplinary Evidence Trevor Palmer: This morning we were discussing the implications of catastrophism in historical times; this afternoon we are going to look at a much wider timescale, to deal with the origin and evolution of life on this planet. It is generally assumed that life first appeared on Earth perhaps 3.9 billion years ago as a result of chemical evolution producing complex structures from simple starting materials. However, the arguments to support this are largely speculation following a pattern. The arguments may go: if life arose on Earth from simple chemical materials, then it must have happened something like this.. ...
