302. Martian Metamorphoses: The Planet Mars in Ancient Myth and Religion, by Ev Cochrane [Journals] [SIS Review]
... has been gathering momentum ever since. His exciting method of interpreting ancient myths to give a new view of mankind's earliest history as beset by catastrophes of cosmic origin paved the way for a new breed of researcher. Although his first book presented a fascinating case for planetary catastrophism in general, he concentrated mainly on what he saw as evidence that Venus had been the major player in the celestial drama, followed closely by Mars. Yet in mainly unpublished works he indicated that before Venus the main player had been Saturn, a planetary scenario he never followed up. A small body of researchers, starting notably with David Talbott's seminal work, have taken over where Velikovsky left off and developed ...

... once wrote, as though they had been "stung by a hornet from outer space". A prominent American astronomer said: "If Dr Velikovsky is right, the rest of us are crazy." [1 ] Another scientist compared Dr Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision to Grimm's Fairy Tales. Although Dr Velikovsky's theories led to interesting predictions regarding Venus, Jupiter and other celestial bodies, some of which were verified by NASA spacecraft, the scientific community remained unimpressed. Isaac Asimov dismissed the winning forecasts as "Velikovsky's lucky hits" and added: "Any set of nonsense syllables placed in random order will make words now and then." [2 ] This was one of the ...

305. Io, Europa and Venus [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Workshop Vol 3 No 1 (Jul 1980) Home | Issue Contents Io, Europa and Venus All Recently Stabilised Additions to the Solar System. by R.D . MacKinnon In Workshop vol. 2 no. 4 (1980), p.8 , the Monitor section reports on Jupiter's moon, Io, describing it according to one journal as "the strangest object yet seen in the solar system" (1 ). To account for the vulcanism on Io the tract indicates that as this moon tunnels its path through the enormous Jovian magnetic field a huge current is generated, giving rise to some 1012 watts of heat which must be "dissipated within ...

... that the great ones of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries searched through classical authors of antiquity for their great discoveries. Did not Copernicus strike out the name of Aristarchus of Samos from the introduction to De Revolutionibus before he signed imprimatur on his work? Did not Tycho Brahe find the compromising theory of the Sun revolving around the Earth- but Mercury and Venus circling around the Sun- in Heracleides of Pontus, yet announce it as his own? Did not Galileo read of the equal velocity of heavy and light falling bodies in Lucretius; did not Newton read in Plutarch of the Moon removed from the Earth by fifty-six terrestrial radii and impelled by gravitation to circle around the Earth, the basic postulate ...

308. Orbits of Core Material Ejected from Gaseous Planets [Journals] [Kronos]
... planet can be displaced from its central position by a small radial force. This will produce turbulence which could lead to further displacement, since the restoring gravitational force is very small. It is claimed(1 ) that the energy stored in the core of Jupiter is much greater than that required to eject material equal to the present mass of Venus at surface escape velocity from Jupiter. Some notes are included later on the effect of the expulsion of core material from Saturn, which would appear to entail the infall of material at the site of the Great Red Spot of Jupiter as well as the ejection of a separate mass to become the planet Venus. Evidence based on mythology which ...
309. The Fifty-two-year Period, Part 1 Venus Ch.8 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... arrived, all the people were seized with fear and waited in anxiety for what might take place." They were afraid that "it will be the end of the human race and that the darkness of the night may become permanent: the sun may not rise anymore."(3 ) They watched for the appearance of the planet Venus, and when, on the feared day, no catastrophe occurred, the people of Maya rejoiced. They brought human sacrifices and offered the hearts of prisoners whose chests they opened with knives of flint. On that night, when the fifty-two-year period ended, a great bonfire announced to the fearful crowds that a new period of grace had ...

... event was to be conceived by the people as being arranged because of their sins and was meant to evoke guilt feelings: "For God is come to prove you; and that His fear may be before you, that ye sin not" (Ex. 20:17). [* The author is here referring to the Planet Venus at a time when its form, according to the cosmological theories of Immanuel Velikovsky, was essentially comet-like and physically threatening to the Earth - the Ed.] Such guilt feelings are incompatible with personal well-being and with the ideal the superego setsovercome for itself. They have, therefore, to be overcome by effacement of the law or by ...
