... are generated in terms which, supposedly, will elucidate an existing theory more fully or explicitly. Such, in fact, is the very endeavor of the academic profession: one is expected to be a professional in order to implant objective scholarship, and this can only be accomplished by posing inquiries logically connected with established theories rather than coping with anomalies discovered within phenomena. Indeed, objectivity toward facts compels us to disguise facts; we are obliged to distance ourselves from the realm of data selected for examination in order to avoid any charge of bias in scientific discovery. Objectivity, then, moves us away from empirical validation and into theory- with the fatal flaw that we engage in futile ...
292. Minds in Chaos [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Venus and Mars, Venus playing the dominant role. All three postulates would be largely substantiated if it could be shown that, contrary to all conventional expectations, Venus (1 ) is still hot - evidence of recent birth, (2 ) is enveloped in hydrocarbon clouds - remnants of a hydrocarbonaceous comet tail, and (3 ) has anomalous rotational motion - evidence suggesting that it suffered unusual perturbations before settling in its orbit as a planet. The first two of these points were selected by Velikovsky in 1946 as the most crucial tests for his entire work. THE EVIDENCE FROM MARINER II He was confident of ultimate vindication for his conclusion that Venus is hot despite the fact that ...

... do we do next? Now that we appreciate that we are perpetually poised on the edge of extinction, what is our species going to do with this knowledge? And what does this awareness imply regarding our place in space? 14:00 Dr Marie-Agnès Courty, French Centre for Scientific Research Causes and Effects of the 2350 BC Middle East Anomaly Evidenced by Micro-debris Fallout, Surface Combustion and Soil Explosion Further investigations allow us to re-examine the nature, age, causes and effects of the third millennium catastrophe identified from our earlier findings. Test on various late third millennium BC archaeological deposits and contemporaneous soils provides evidence for the regional occurrence in northern Syria of a layer with an uncommon petrographic ...
294. Thoth Vol III, No. 5: March 15, 1999 [Journals] [Thoth]
... ) plasma physics business. I know that sounds silly, but I just have to have a "feeling" for scientific concepts. The same is true of mathematical concepts. I was having one hell of a time getting a "feeling" for Wal's Electric Universe. I just couldn't get past the plasma thing, and the electrical circuitry anomalies they seemed to present. I know what the problem was now. It's the magnitude of the whole damned thing! This whole thing is on a scale that is nearly incomprehensible. (In fact, maybe it is incomprehensible?) The Sun is an anode. A positively charged entity. Where's the other part of the electric circuit ...
295. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... time gap and the simplicity of most of the signs in Eccott's figs. 5-7 (i .e . the signs are similar merely by coincidence) '. There are a number of points that need to be considered here. Given the fact that the so called Roman tally-marks' contain apparent numerals written retrograde, upside down, and contain anomalies such as IIII instead of IV and VIIII instead of IX, one may be led to suspect that these were not intended to be numerals or tally-marks at all. One can see striking correspondence between the characters of Old European Linear and many ancient Old World scripts, including those from Asia. It would seem that, besides possibly forming ...

297. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... with the planet Venus in ancient Babylonian astronomical records [10]. Such correspondences suggest a continuity between the Babylonian astronomical records involving Venus and the earliest cult of Inanna/Ishtar. Like it or not, the traditions surrounding the planet Venus remain remarkably consistent from the earliest historical period to the dawn of astronomy. And throughout this period glaring anomalies attend the iconographical and mythological records surrounding the Cytherean planet, particularly as manifested in the cults of Inanna/Ishtar. It is to Velikovsky's everlasting credit that he was the first to document these anomalies. Mandelkehr, apparently following Clube and Napier, cannot bring himself to accept the ancient traditions surrounding the planet Venus because to do so would ...
298. Forbidden Science by Richard Milton [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Trevor Palmer's review in C&C Workshop 1993:1 , pp.22-27). However it sold well and went on to become available in paperback. Milton has followed it up with a new book, Forbidden Science, subtitled Suppressed research that could change our lives, which offers a perceptive and revealing voyage around the exotic world of anomalous research' and promises that For the reader who is prepared to be challenged, Forbidden Science sets out an inspiring, exhilarating vision of what science should be, and what it still might become'. Milton claims that orthodox scientific practice is deeply flawed and that there is much of value to be found among the dissidents outside its doors ...

... the funeral games celebrated shortly after the death of Julius Caesar. We know it to have been a comet since Chinese sources from the same year clearly describe a comet. Yet it not without interest that various Latin writers called it a "new star". Part of the confusion, perhaps, stems from the propensity of comets to undergo anomalous outbursts. Here's a quote from a recent book devoted to Caesar's comet: "The July sighting in 44 was of an extremely bright, star-like object, surrounded by a slight radial coma, that maintained its high luminosity for at most seven days. This almost certainly the signature of an anomalous outburst'. Despite the name, anomalous ...

... From: Pensée Vol. 2 No 3: (Fall 1972) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered II" Home | Issue Contents Student Academic Freedom Forum / Pensée Magazine ANOMALY: While there is no more burning issue on campuses today than the revolution in science and the humanities that was initiated by the work of Immanuel Velikovsky, most professional journals and learned societies continue their silence. In special courses, seminars, theses, and lectures, students and professors at universities around the country are demanding that Velikovsky's work receive fair consideration. (For his lecture at Canada's McMaster University earlier this year, the crowd overflowed from the main auditorium into six additional halls, with closed circuit television. ...
