... continued. The electric charges grew to exceed the gravitational attraction between the proto-planets: Q Q' > GM M'. (See Fig. 2). The aerodynamic force exerted on each proto-planet by the gas cloud had two components: a drag force in the direction opposite to the body's velocity in the cloud, and a deflective force normal to that velocity and to the axis of rotation (taken as normal to the heliotropic orbit and prograde). The latter is the force which causes a spinning pitched baseball to "curve." The deflective force is from the side whose motion is against the flow of passing gas to the side moving with the passing gas. The ...
392. Science Frontiers [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a small cluster of galaxies. One of its companions is a galaxy so dense that it appears to be a star. This compact object sports a circular shadow and seems to be silhouetted against the central galaxy NGC-ll99. Arp's analysis of the absorption ring seems to prove that the compact galaxy is in front of the central galaxy. This would normally be permissible, but here the central galaxy has a redshift of 2,600 km/sec compared to 13,300 km/sec for the galaxy in front of it. This is astounding because the farther away an object is, the greater its redshift is supposed to be. [Other examples of such anomalous red shifts are ...
393. Of the Moon and Mars, Part 2 [Journals] [Pensee]
... Sun, each of them ought to be charged so as to have this same 1019-volt surface potential. The charge on each of them, expressed as a fraction of the Sun's charge, should be proportional to the planet's radius, expressed as a fraction of the Sun's radius. Earth, Mars, and the Moon should then carry respective "normal" charges of approximately 1015, 5 x 1014, and 2.5 x 1014 coulombs. Given such charges- and it bears reemphasizing that these figures may be substantially on the low side- we can see that the postulated Aristarchus discharge, transferring 109 coulombs between Mars and the Moon, would alter the "normal" charge of Mars by ...
394. Plate Tectonics and Catastrophe Theory [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... the field of the absolute velocity vectors Va(x ) = V(x )+ t(x ) will form, when t varies in L, an affine linear variety (T ) of (H ) arising from the initial vector field x V(x ). Now at the origin O of H there exists one and only normal [over]Op(to) that minimizes the norm |Oq| for q varying in T. The instantaneous displacement to them defines the absolute reference frame attached to our fluid in motion. See Fig. 1. Fig. 1 Kinetic-Enerqy minimizing frame, p(to), as obtained from the origin O by orthocional projection ...
395. Response to Ellenberger [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... . I have found one that does what Patten wanted. Before describing the circularization mechanism, it is necessary to develop the background. Specifically, we describe in some detail the qualitative orbit changes a planet or moon will experience as a result of an encounter with another massive object. In Figure 1 and Table 1 the effect of tangential and normal perturbing forces on an orbit are shown as a function of orbital position. This figure is similar to that presented by Moulton in his An Introduction to Celestial Mechanics (New York: Dover, Fig. 49). In the table the out-of-plane effects are not considered, since they are assumed to be insignificant. The normal force is ...
396. The Core Ejection Hypothesis [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... process is quite impossible and its initiation is precluded by a very simple fact of Nature that Crew refuses to acknowledge. Crew claims that core ejection is facilitated by pressure ionisation producing a positively charged body inside a gaseous planet. He is quite mistaken on this point. All that pressure ionisation does is produce a metallic state in materials which under normal conditions have their electrons confined in a crystal lattice. In the metallic state, the electrons are free to circulate. However, the material is electrically neutral and the immense attraction between opposite charges absolutely precludes the possibility that bulk charge separation would occur. The electrons are squeezed out of their lattice positions but they do not bunch up as ...

... undergo variable behavior like large, brighter stars." This, according to him, "may be caused by external changes in the electrical environment or by an internal build-up and sudden redistribution of charge." As far as Earth is concerned, Thornhill could find no objection that it was ejected by proto-Saturn "in what seems to be a normal process for such bodies." [9 ] Out in space, needless to say, there would have been no force to disrupt the axial coupling of proto-Saturn with Earth, which would have conserved its momentum of ejection. Proto-Saturn's gravitational attraction, whether electrically induced or not, would not have allowed Earth to escape from its primary. ...
398. Henry H. Bauer and Immanuel Velikovsky [Books]
... will eventually finish up with one of the sonnets of Shakespeare . . . it strikes me as a lunatic sort of logic, and I think we should be able to do better. (31) [Elsewhere he states] "The development of an animal under the influence of its genes is obviously an intricate and carefully controlled process which normally leads to a rather standard and invariant end result. A mutation of one or even several of the genes concerned can either disrupt the process completely, so that the animal dies, or it can produce effects only of a limited character . . . . [W ]ith a developing biological organism mutation is anything but omnipotent to produce ...
399. Crack in Einstein's Pedestal [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... following report from the London Times, June 4 edition: Eureka! Scientists break speed of light, Jonathan Leake, Science Editor Scientists claim they have broken the ultimate speed barrier: the speed of light. In research carried out in the United States, particle physicists have shown that light pulses can be accelerated to up to 300 times their normal velocity of 186,000 miles per second. The implications, like the speed, are mind-boggling. On one interpretation it means that light will arrive at its destination almost before it has started its journey. In effect, it is leaping forward in time. Wal Thornhill comments: If Einstein was wrong about light then there need be ...
400. The Mosaic Calendar and the Sabbath [Journals] [Aeon]
... in the entire spectrum of Sabbaths. This is Yom Kippur- the Day of Atonement- which was required to be upheld on the tenth day of the seventh month: Tishri 10. [2 ] The day of Yom Kippur must never coincide with a regular Sabbath day inasmuch as the observances of this one special day are the antithesis of normal Sabbath activity. Instead of a feast day, a normal Sabbath expectation, Tishri 10 was designated to be a fast day. That is, instead of a day of celebration, Yom Kippur was the day on which the Israelites were to afflict their souls. The necessity of Yom Kippur never to coincide with a Sabbath is most important ...
