( Aviation Week & Space Technology , p.47). March 3, 1979 Emissions from the recently discovered plasma cloud circling Jupiter "recorded by Voyager 1's ultraviolet spectrometer, indicate to scientists that the source of the radiation is a dense swarm of sulfur three particles- which are sulfur atoms stripped of two electrons, or ionized , from the extreme heat" ( New York Times , p.12). ** ** * IN THIS ...
252. Saxl's Pendulum Convection of Electric Charge Revisited [Journals] [Aeon]
... The evidence he cites for support has no bearing on the theory. The work of E. J. Saxl that originally motivated Ginenthal's theory is shown to be fatally flawed and unsuited for studying gravity. The electrical interaction between Sun and planets posited by Ginenthal cannot occur because of the isolating effects of space charge sheaths on charged bodies in a plasma, which R. E. Juergens first discussed in 1972 in Pensee II. While the convection of electric charge, also first discussed by Juergens in Pensee VII, is a likely explanation for Saxl's anomalous results, it cannot account for millisecond changes in Earth's rotation because impossibly large electric charge is required. Magnetic Field Predictions In replying to ...
253. Epilogue (Stargazers and Gravediggers) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Stargazers]
... findings evoked exclamations of surprise and led to some farfetched ad-hoc hypotheses. In celestial mechanics all new evidence has conjured against the concept- basic in science until very recently- that gravitation and inertia are the only forces in action in the celestial sphere. The new discoveries are the interplanetary magnetic field centered on the sun and rotating with it; the solar plasma; the terrestrial magneto-sphere; and the enormously powerful magnetic envelope around Jupiter through which the Galilean satellites plow, themselves influencing the Jovian radio signals. By 1969 Velikovsky could write: "Who is the physicist that would insist that Jupiter, traveling with its powerful magnetosphere through the interplanetary magnetic field, is not affected by it? Or that ...
... insecurity and frustration. Fossilized notions are offered as ultimate truths eliminating any need for further probing and thinking. Geology is taught according to uniformitarian principles laid down long before oceanographers and students of paleomagnetism discovered evidence of global violence in recent time; in astronomy, newfound knowledge of interplanetary magnetic fields, electric charges on the Sun and planets, and plasma in space is kept out of most college textbooks- or referred to only in prefaces; the high heat and retrograde rotation of Venus, gases escaping from a Moon long thought to be cold to its core- such anomalies carry no explanation in the astronomy taught in the colleges. Disquieting news arrives in an incessant stream from arctic regions ...
255. Ionizing the Galaxy [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... The presence of wide spread ionization in our galaxy and others therefore implies that something is seriously wrong, or at least very incomplete, with this picture. Wal Thornhill comments: This discovery is another nail in the coffin (if more were needed) for a cosmology driven by gravity alone. I have argued strongly in favor of the new plasma cosmology which proposes that galaxies are giant electrical circuits, for example, carrying power along the arms of our galaxy toward the galactic centre. In this model, it is not necessary to rely only upon ultraviolet radiation to ionize neutral hydrogen atoms. The energy is available in the pervasive galactic cosmic ray charge carriers. I have written earlier ...

... its long train and any attendant magnetic fields, would have passed right through intense regions of the Earth's magnetosphere .( 2a) Both planetary bodies would undergo severe tidal distortion and would suffer extensive damage. (3 ) Would either be destroyed? Not necessarily. Venus, although today believed to be non-magnetic, is still surrounded by a great plasma tail extending away from the Sun for over 100 times the Venus radius. (4 ) Each time Venus passes inferior conjunction, a period of geomagnetic minimum occurs on Earth for about seven days. On either side of this quiet period enhanced magnetic disturbances are likely to occur. (5 ) In close contact the two planets and their ...

258. The Mosaic Calendar and the Sabbath [Journals] [Aeon]
... , is 52, including one Sabbath of 48 hours, i.e . two days. We are now able to see the broad outline of the original Mosaic calendar which, as a concise arrangement of days, excels the calendar currently in use by Judaism and mocks the Gregorian system of movable feasts (e .g . Easter and Pentecost) under which we live. The declaration of our reconstructed calendar is that not one of these specified components in the ancient model survives in its original form. Each and every one of its feast days, its beginnings of months, its Sabbaths and all its solemn feasts, are today upheld on days other than those originally set down ...
259. Verbal Vignette [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... 2 (Sep 2001) Home | Issue Contents Verbal Vignette MEL ACHESON: Mel reminded us that gravity is a theory. Stars, for instance, repudiate gravity, solar prominences disobey [see Velikovsky's comments in Cosmos without Gravitation, at www.varchive.org/ce/cosmos.htm]. The Gravitation Constant is like a dancing plasma. Herodotus says that "Thunderbolts steer the universe". Like Newton, Herodotus would have seen apples fall from trees, but did not consider the observation significant to his view. Likewise, Newton would have seen lightning, but not considered the observation significant to his view of gravity. ...
260. Earth Lights [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... . Effects, it is claimed, can be seen for hundreds of miles and resemble great searchlight beams. An earthquake in Chile in 1906 included brilliant mountain top discharges so much so the whole sky appeared to be on fire. The Andes are a fault line and plate boundary and it is surely no accident that a black American founded the Pentecostal religious movement at the beginning of the century in Los Angeles, located as it is on the much media-hyped San Andreas fault. Hence, once again, Dick Atkinson was astute to criticise Clube & Napier's claims that higher meteoric flux levels promulgated Puritan fundamentalism in the Middle Ages. Light phenomena from tectonic sources could just as easily lie at ...

... exciting and important a set of problems is to be found anywhere in the realms of science and scholarship. Every discipline is implicated in the theory of ancient catastrophes - psychology, sociology, linguistics, archaeology, biology, physics, chemistry, astronomy, and geology, together with their many subdivisions down to special and new sciences, such as plasma physics, dendrochronology, and mega-vitamin therapy [1 ]. It has something to say about "the Jupiter Effect," "the Ion Effect," and "the Bermuda Triangle," not to mention "Ancient Astronauts," and the hominids of Olduvai Gorge. Every bite of the archaeologist's spade, every oceanographer's deep coring of ...

... inferred from the ancient empirical beliefs: A. All planets and satellites would have to exhibit evidence of very recent extreme thermal and explosive experiences. B. The solar system bodies would have to show a declining but considerable set of electric fields and electromagnetism, and solar system space would be in the process of clearing up its ionized gases and plasmas. C. Remanent binary behavior would have to be evidenced by Jupiter or by the outer planets as a group. D. Continental "drift" theory would need to permit a negatively exponential rate of movement from a very late breakup of the Pangean crust, and a socket from which the lunar material was wrenched must be shown on ...
265. The Disastrous Love Affair of Moon and Mars [Books] [de Grazia books]
... earliest development of theology everywhere. If the characters of the Love Affair are to be placed in heaven, their motions too must be given meaning. The best explanation lately offered has the Sun and planets forming an electric systems, subordinate to and part of the galactic electrical system. They act as charged bodies separated from an oppositely charged space plasma by space-charge sheaths, the rupture of which destroys a balance and creates havoc through discharges among the bodies. These efforts seem to be discernible in the special motions of the characters of the Love Affair. We present physical and historical evidence in general agreement with the love song sung by Demodocus. How the human mind manages to react to ...

... for February of 1974 in San Francisco. On June 11, 1973, C. J. Ransom submitted a proposal to the A.A .A .S . that a Velikovsky Symposium be held on the topic of "Venus- A Youthful Planet," with Ransom himself as the organizer. Ransom, a Ph.D . in plasma physics, and a long-time student of the work of Velikovsky, was very well-qualified for this role. He also suggested several speakers who might be asked to participate in such a Symposium. Nonetheless, Ransom's proposal was rejected, without explanation, on July 9, 1973. A very similar Symposium, but offered by Ivan King, was ...

... a corkscrew shape seen side-on." Wal Thornhill comments: Two items stand out: The filamentary nature of "the Snake". The corkscrew shape. I suppose the third thing that stands out for me is the evident lack of understanding of galactic discharges on the part of astronomers. Such a structure is expected on the basis of the plasma cosmology presented in Eric Lerner's book The Big Bang Never Happened - but I'll bet you won't see mention of that in any of the scientific journals. ...

Cambridge Conference List Mass extinctions, small comets and old astronomical megaliths are just a few of the subjects discussed by the CCNet. Catastrophism is not only mainstream, but has hit the silver screen (no pun intended) with the release of "Deep Impact". Electricity in Astronomy Plasma and electricity continue to feature heavily in some of the astronomy discussions in Thoth and the Kronia List, and might even appear in some of the aboriginal artwork showcased on the back cover of this issue. But it's not all astrophysics, inside you'll also find reports on the Joshua Impact Event (page 9), whether the First Dynasty ...

The before-and-after testing of the process-sample has employed both quadrupole mass spectrometry (utilizing an inductively coupled plasma excitation source) and atomic-emission spectrometry (based upon scanning electron microscopy). Also used were Geiger counters (to note decrease in external counts during processing) and computer-monitored scintillation counters for more accurate quantitative measurements of initial and final radiation emission by the bare unprocessed and processed samples themselves. The Cincinnati Group acknowledges great help from Dr. Eugene ...
270. ADS Abstracts [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... electrical discharges in the atmospheres. While collisions between solid particles are proposed as the probable charging mechanism, it is noted that a generally acceptable theory of charging mechanisms is not a vital precondition for recognizing electrical discharges as observed phenomena. Some properties of electrical discharges are described, including rate of propagation, magnetic fields, the pinch effect, and plasma jets. These phenomena and objects are identified as being due to or characterized by electrical discharges: solar flares, the variation in long-period variables, the filamentary structure of the Crab Nebula, novae, radio galaxies, barred spirals, quasars, and the jet of M 87. Further mythological evidence for ancient knowledge of variable stars by Wilk ...

The prediction of microwave background radiation is often used as evidence of the Big Bang, and when it was eventually measured, was proclaimed as proof.

... is a large enveloping atmosphere... but this might hinder man's view of proto-Saturn (although maybe there was a hole in the atmosphere). In 1976, Ralph Juergens suggested that the proto-Saturnian system may have been surrounded by a plasma-sheath [Dec 19, 1976, private communiqué]. In 1981, Roger Ashton suggested that the "plasma bubble" may have had an opaque surface [R . Ashton to C. J. Ransom, Sept 8, 1981, private communiqué, cc to D. Cardona]; and Wal Thornhill has suggested that proto-Saturn may have been a brown dwarf star, and Earth orbited within its "atmosphere". Evidence for similar effects include ...
