... From: SIS Internet Digest 2002:2 (Dec 2002) Home | Issue Contents Sun offers Halloween trick or treat'www.sunspot.noao.edu/press/flare/ National Solar Observatory Press Releases: Sacramento Peak, NM (Oct. 31, 2002): The sun gave solar physicists a rare, perhaps unique, treat on Halloween with the nearly simultaneous eruption of flares on opposite edges of the sun. Now the trick is figuring out the connection between two events that were about 2 million km (1 .4 million miles) apart, as measured across the solar surface. The flares were observed Thursday, Oct. 31, at 1700 UT ...
232. The Dragon in China and Japan by M. W. VISSER [Books]
... , whose name was Surapa?101 When Kadru and Vinata, two wives of Kagyapa, had to dispute as to the colour of the Sun's horses, they made an agreement that the one that was wrong should become a slave to the other. Kadru, the mother of the snakes, induced her sons to defile the horses of the Sun by spitting venom over them; thus they looked black instead of white, and Vinata, the mother of Garuda king of birds, was conquered by this trick and made Kadru's slave. When Garuda came to release her, the snakes asked the nectar from the sea of milk, which the gods had began to churn, as a ...
233. The Celestial Dynamics of "Worlds in Collision" [Journals] [SIS Review]
... time to summarise what I have already said in Pensée and Kronos [2 ] for the benefit of those of you who may not have read those papers, and then I shall try to say something beyond what I have published. From the point of view of Newtonian mechanics, point-particle mechanics, that is, idealised mechanics in which the Sun and the planets are considered to be mathematical points which move in time according to Newton's Law of Motion, I have absolutely no difference of opinion whatsoever with what Dr Roy has said. I believe that, in the case of point-particle Newtonian mechanics, including only Newton's Law of Motion and even disregarding things that Newton would have accepted, ...
234. Still Facing Many Problems (Part II) [Journals] [Kronos]
... suspect that non-colliding encounters involving heavy electrical differentials might more effectively produce axis tilting than would collisions. . . . In revising Warlow's calculations, Slabinski assumes that the Earth has to be turned over in a single pass-by at two Earth's radii distance in a parabolic approach trajectory. He emerges with a requirement for a body with the mass of 62 Suns. Even if the crust of the Earth is shoved around independently of the underlaying layers, a body of the mass of 68 Jupiters is needed. . . . A moment's consideration of Slabinski's calculation leads to the suspicion that he may be employing a rate in his formulas that soars to wild heights and casts doubt prima facie on his ...
235. Shamash and Sin [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... above in no uncertain terms. As they had it written,'(Mul) Lu-Bat Sag-Us Mul (il) Samas Su-u', which translates as the planet Saturn is Shamash' or Shamash is the planet Saturn' [1 ]. It is a pure and simple statement. Granted, it is also stated that Shamash was the Sun, but there is no doubt that Shamash was first and foremost Saturn. This can be ascertained because, when the Sun was meant, the astrologers thought it necessary to insert a gloss in their texts to that effect. The gloss was made to read Samse u-mi', that is Shamash of the day' [2 ], ...

Wal Thornhill- ] Researchers at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm, led by Goran Scharmer, discuss the images in the Nov. 14 issue of the journal Nature Team member Dan Kiselman told what he sees in the new views of the Sun "A dark-cored filament looks like a glowing snake with a dark stripe painted along its back," Kiselman said. "The head' of the snake is often a complicated feature where the stripe splits up among many bright points." The pictures were taken with academy's recently installed solar telescope at La Palma, in the Canary Islands ...
237. In Defense Of The Saturn Thesis [Journals] [Aeon]
... and, as Ev Cochrane told me when we first heard James voice his criticisms at the SIS Silver Jubilee proceedings in September of 1999, he at first seemed to be making our case for us. Little by little, however, James began to introduce his own explanations concerning the prominence of planetary deities in mythology and their elevation above the Sun and Moon. Thus, in the published version of his critique, he writes: "When we compare them to the stars, it is not so difficult to understand why the planets attracted the attention of the ancients. The stars form the fixed' background of the night sky...The planets, of course, are ...
238. Chaldean Account of Genesis [Books]
... age of Plato in knowledge of science. It follows therefore, that while the Secret Doctrine itself apprehends equally both philosophy and science, in addressing itself to the thought of an age, it must recognize here as it does everywhere, the law of cycles that rules in the intellectual development of a race no less than in the revolutions of suns and worlds, and so address the times from that p lane of thought that is in the ascendant. It is just because analytical thought is in the ascendant, because it is the thought-form of the age, that the great majority of readers are likely to overlook the broad synthesis and so miss the philosophy of the Secret Doctrine. ...
239. Discussion on Wal Thornhill & Ev Cochrane's papers [Journals] [SIS Review]
... this mechanism that gives the false impression that the solar system has been stable for aeons. In fact, conventional gravity acting alone will not produce a stable multi-body system. It requires a feedback mechanism such as the one proposed to achieve stability. Q4. Asked what the effect of passing through a particularly strong current zone would be on the Sun, Wal Thornhill said the lack of neutrinos from the Sun has been an ignored wake-up call for half a century, telling us that the Sun does not generate thermonuclear energy in its core. Eddington, in a single paragraph, dismissed the alternative of subtle radiation' from outside to power a star because it left the mathematician nowhere to ...
240. The Celestial Harmony, Prologue Ch.1 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... From "Worlds in Collision" © 1950 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents The Celestial Harmony The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The day consists of twenty-four hours. The year consists of 365 days, 5 hours, and 49 minutes. The moon circles around the earth, changing its phases- crescent, full, decrescent. The terrestrial axis points in the direction of the polar star. After winter comes spring, then summer and fall. These are common facts. Are they invariable laws? Must it be so forever? Was it so always? The sun has nine planets. Mercury has no satellites; Venus has no ...
