... . However, contrary to what Stiebing suggests, these ordinately improbable collision and near-collision events are still presented as scientifically plausible. These collisions are still presented throughout the literature of astronomy as events that probably did occur. Stiebing's entire argument is worthless in the face of this evidence. So, in response to Stiebing's view that improbability is a method ... of a number of such collisions [between the protoplanet Venus on a cometary orbit with the Earth] occurring within historical times.... Carl Sagan, a well-known astronomer, has argued that the odds against a comet grazing the Earth in any given millennium are 30,000 to 1, [actually he raised the odds to 30 ...

Cosmologists' equations for ... voids, all elongated along our line of sight, which is a problem for cosmologists but could be solved by jettisoning redshift as a distance indicator. Yet another puzzle for astronomers is that the space probes Pioneer 10 and 1, which are leaving the Solar System by different routes, are both showing anomalies. Perhaps gravity isn't the only answer ...

... chemist, Philip H. Goldblatt, the distance calculations to far flung quasars are somewhat more involved. If we figure by the standard measurements, as is conventionally taught in astronomy classes, and convert the approximately 0.5 milliarcseconds to radians, we obtain 2.4241 x 10-9 radians.

238. Is Gravity Necessary? (A Response to Charles Ginenthal's Electro-Gravitic Theory) [Journals] [Aeon]
... Response to Charles Ginenthal's Electro-Gravitic Theory)Earl Milton In the mid-Twentieth Century when Immanuel Velikovsky wrote the book, Worlds in Collision, the mechanical world view of Isaac Newton ruled astronomy. By proposing that the planets had changed orbits recently, thereby sometimes coming to close proximity with cataclysmic results, Velikovsky attracted scorn from many astronomers. Even when data ... space probe after space probe indicated that the believed view of a quiet birth and evolution of the Solar System was no longer warranted, few scientists bothered to examine Velikovsky's work seriously. Worse, the conspiracy of silence which was imposed by powerful scientists in 1950 upon Velikovsky's work remains essentially intact today in the halls of Academia. As a result ...

... the order of 10 to the 19th power volts [14]. The coincidence is only that, for even Menzel's arithmetic was faulty. The main point is that in astronomy and other sciences, natural and social, to make quantification a rigid condition for the admission of new theory, even in areas where qualification today rules, can promote ... . The discovery of discordant facts is cause for rejoicing, not consternation. If Velikovsky had adduced any real evidence that compelled a revision of the laws of celestial mechanics, astronomers would have accepted the facts, and the challenge, with delight. His supporters imagine that we are shaking in our shoes. This is partly true: we are ...
