... atmosphere. The notion that Venus had a tail is impossible." Quote, Leroy Ellenberger, 6 September 1994 flier. So I remembered something and got out my files and made a copy of it, and the copy is of an article in the 29 March 1974 Science, and the article is "Observations at Venus Encountered by the Plasma Science Experiment on Mariner 10." The abstract concludes with the sentence, "Unusual intermittent features observed downstream of the planet (the planet Venus) indicate the presence of a comet-like tail hundreds of scale lengths in length." A scale length being a technical term that I won't attempt to define here. Then in the conclusions of ...

231. Mutations And New Species. Ch.15 Cataclysmic Evolution (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... based on genetics and Mendel's laws. Ironically, Mendel was an Augustine monk and made his basic contribution at a time when the war between science and the Church was raging, following the publication of Darwin's main work. The spontaneous variations in mutants can be followed through as hereditary factors in successive generations of offspring. The genes in the germ plasma are the carriers of the traits, and a variation (mutation) in a gene would cause a variation (mutation) in the offspring. But, generally, only single variations appear at a time; they may lead to new races, not to new species. Spontaneous mutations are far too few and insufficient in magnitude to bring ...
232. Shamir [Journals] [SIS Review]
... by similarities with neighbouring pagan practices? The Bible goes on to claim that the cloud of the Lord travelled with the Israelites throughout their journey from Sinai into the Promised Land - hardly something we might identify with a comet. It may be that the cloud of the Lord came to be seen as a spiritual phenomenon along the lines of the Pentecost and tongues of spiritual fire. This might imply that the cloud or pillar of fire was a traditional attribute of the Lord that had become garbled, its real cometary nature/ origin lost to the editors. The cloud of light or fire has been interpreted by some as UFO phenomena (something to consider if the cloud really followed the ...
233. A New Introduction to Earth in Upheaval [Journals] [SIS Review]
... bi-planet system - the Moon - no more a lovable luminary to lighten our nights, but a site of an inferno, a ravished work, with no life left, millions of acres of destruction battered and molten and bubbled, a picture not new, but not realised in its meaning to Earth. Our glorious day luminary sends tongues of plasma to lick its planets that splay and harden their magnetic shields to protect themselves from such lovemaking. Radio signals are sent by planets to tell of the anguishes of their inorganic souls and radio signals come from colliding galaxies, and the placid universe is but an expanse crossed by radiation some of which is lethal, by fragments of disintegrated bodies ...

... "Cataclysmic Evolution" (pp. 255-259). "Cosmic rays. . . arriving from outside the earth, are very strong per particle, averaging several billions of electron volts and sometimes carrying a potential of a hundred billion electron volts. . . it is conceivable that, where a cosmic ray or charge hits a gene of germ plasma, a biological mutation takes place, comparable to the physical transmutation of the elements. After all, the genes, like any proteins, are biochemical compounds composed of carbon, nitrogen, and a few other elements. Should a somatic chromosome be hit by a powerful charge, it might at worst cause disorganized growth and be the origin ...

... additions to those are presented. The combined impact of those flaws forever destroys the credibility of a Big Bang. But, more importantly, an alternative theory that is based on astronomical data, proven science and logic is then presented. This book succeeds Mitchell's 1995 book, The Cult of the Big Bang, that was published with endorsements by plasma physicist and cosmologist Anthony L. Peratt of the Los Alamos National Laboratories, cosmologist Halton C. Arp of the Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Germany, and Professor Jayant V.

... and younger dates as measurements move up. This is as expected and found. But the layering could occur in a very short time set of eruptions and evidence a series of old ages in some kind of proportions because the daughter traces will be most abundant in the lowest samples and decline progressively as the samples are taken from lower in the plasma melt. Addressing himself to that part of the African-Red Sea Rift which stands on the continent, R.B . McConnell argued a 2.7 billion year age for its beginnings and limits severely the changes of recent times [1 ], compares it with the Rhine Graben and Baikal depression. I have linked all three with the ...
237. Electricity in Astronomy /3 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . The ratio of the magnetic to electric force is v2:c2, where c is the velocity of light. If v is 10% of c, the force of attraction would be only 1% of the force of repulsion. However if there are also positive ions in the channel, the electrical repulsion is reduced and in a plasma with equal positive and negative charges the magnetic force is dominant and the current path would be a filament with electrons and positive ions travelling in opposite directions. Positive ions of, for example, nitrogen and oxygen, have a mass of about 30,000 times that of an electron, and even if each ion has several electronic charges ...

... believed in "electrostatic repulsion" as an answer to, unsolved problems (2 ), But there is nothing static about astrophysics. Everything is dynamic. If an electric charge is transferred to a celestial body, like the Earth, this charge will be gone almost instantaneously. The electric conductance between the ionosphere of the Earth and the surrounding plasma is almost perfect, for the simple reason that there is nothing to prevent charged particles (electrons, protons, ions) from leaving the ionosphere. It is true that the lower parts of the atmosphere act as an insulating layer between the ionosphere and the ground, but it is a rather poor insulator - a charge on the Earth ...

... third larger than usual, to accommodate all the material. Intersect 2001 I was fortunate enough to attend the Intersect 2001 conference myself for which I thank my wife, Caroline, who practically ignored my excuses, and booked up my tickets. The conference focussed on three areas: (1 ) The Saturn Theory (2 ) The Electric / Plasma Universe, and new to most, (3 ) Biological and extra-sensory phenomena. The Saturn Theory (the idea that the Earth was once a satellite of Saturn) is considered by many people to be balderdash, even to some of the open minded readers of this publication! And not being content with such a controversial theory, proponents ...
241. Europa braided furrow [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... which runs vertically in the attached image and must be of the order of 10 km wide, is the apparent braiding of the ridges - particularly near the top of the picture. In earlier postings I have described how I thought the ridges and triplebands were formed. If you can imagine Europa as a ball inside one of those novelty shop plasma spheres, where discharges snake between the central sphere and the outer glass envelope, then imagine 3 spheres in a line inside the glass envelope with the discharges occurring between the two end spheres. The sphere in the centre would have the discharge filaments snaking across its surface. It represents Europa, which must have periodically gotten in the way ...
242. When Was the Lunar Surface Last Molten? [Journals] [Pensee]
... both argon and neon were found in lunar material. Ages of seven billion and even 20 billion years were deduced, estimates that exceed the accepted age of the universe. Then it was claimed that much of the argon-40 arrived in the solar wind, though previously only atoms of hydrogen and helium were thought to be present in the wind (plasma). It was retorted that the solar wind cannot possibly contain argon-40; and it was found that the smaller the lunar grains are, the larger is the proportion of argon (and neon) to the grain's mass- it means that much of the argon must have come from the outside- therefore its presence is proportional to the surface, ...

... it to a lower, more useful household voltage. Likewise, stellar transformers convert the lethal power of galactic cosmic rays to a more benign level of radiation conducive to life. Naturally, at this early stage, many of the ideas expressed are speculative. But I am convinced that the sun exhibits all of the complex phenomena associated with a plasma discharge. Based on the standard solar theory, Fred Hoyle wrote in Frontiers of Astronomy, 1955, p.106: "We should expect on the basis of a straightforward calculation that the Sun would end' itself in a simple and rather prosaic way; that with increasing height above the photosphere the density of the solar material would ...

... dove is a Venus symbol .( 4 ) Fire and water were prominent in Venus-caused cataclysms, and Velikovsky has shown how the actions of Michael were those of Venus.(5 ) It is interesting to note that Whitsun which celebrates the descent of the Holy Ghost has its counterpart in the Jewish faith (like all Christian festivals) in Pentecost: the giving of the decalogue during a Venus disaster. On that Whitsun, the Holy Ghost descended in fire as Ginzberg states: "His splendour passed through four portals of fire, earthquake, storm and hail.(6 ) The baptism service may imply that Venus was partly responsible for the Deluge. I must state at this ...
245. Astronomy As Art [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... stage, much of it is visual, an artists' rendition that precedes the mathematical development. See? If you think of the galaxy as an electrical circuit, the images fall into place: they're echoed on every scale, from lightning scars on Earth to arachnoid webs on Venus to the icy patchwork of Europa. The phenomena found in plasma labs provide a visual connection between comet tails, coronal mass ejections, machined craters, planetary nebulae, and galactic jets. In the behavior of the comet Shoemaker-Levi-9 you can see a mini-version of the polar configuration and its break-up. The math is in progress. If history can be used to predict the future, I expect that the ...

Friday evening was to have been a keynote address by Doug Kenyon, followed by Frank Joseph. Frank was unable to be there so Michael Mandeville stood in at short notice. Saturday morning saw the plasma physicist John Brandenburg and journalist Monica Rix Paxson deliver a warning based on their book, Dead Mars, Dying Earth. David Talbott and Wal Thornhill were next and shared a 2 hour slot before lunch. In an almost impressionistic way they were able to convey a sense of the Saturn model and the Electric universe which received a very positive ...

... New Scientist, 20.9 .03. p. 25) Global warming due to increasing carbon dioxide levels is now a dogma for climatologists and the past history of Earth's climate is often assessed by carbon dioxide levels, but some research indicates that variations in cosmic-ray activity are much more important in regard to temperature fluctuations. Radiation, magnetised plasma and energetic particles from the Sun are all key factors which need to be taken account of in models of climate change in the past. THE IMPACT OF A ROMAN LEGEND (New Scientist, 21.6 .03. p. 13) A legend of a falling star has been around in Italy since Roman times in the 4th ...
248. A question for Wal (and Amy and...) [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... the geological works because the same findings on Earth have been interpreted in terms of polar wandering and continental drift. Mars shows no signs of tectonic activity (continental drift). I expect patterns of radioactivity, isotopic anomalies, remanent magnetism and glass surrounding craters and the great "volcanoes" that can be easily explained by their formation in a plasma arc. My suggestion is that laboratory experiments be performed using clays similar in composition to Martian rocks and soil and subject them to electric arcs and sensitively measure the effects. If that can be done before experiments are performed in situ on Mars, we should be able to make more specific predictions about what will be found. To me ...

250. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... from important slide presentations at Portland, Oregon in 1997. The Electric Universe by Wallace Thornhill For anyone dissatisfied with orthodox views of a gravity dominated universe, this is essential reading, its interdisciplinary research presenting a picture of an electric universe within which the catastrophic events described in myth can be explained. Thornhill covers an amazing range of phenomena from plasma physics to mythical symbols and presents convincing electrical explanations for observed astronomical phenomena which astrophysicists have ad hoc dabs at. Thornhill explains our Sun, surface scars on the Moon and Mars, evidence that Venus is a young planet and much more. He sets the scene for a plausible explanation of the Polar Configuration of mythologists Talbott et al and ...
