252. On Mars and Pestilence [Journals] [Aeon]
... other advanced cultures described the planet Saturn as a "Sun." (62) Such puzzles of planetary lore, difficult to understand according to the central tenets of modern astronomy, could be multiplied by the hundreds. From a methodological standpoint, it is possible to investigate archaeoastronomy from several different vantage points. The most obvious, of course ... compiling the ancient traditions surrounding the respective planets, a second approach would be to investigate the traditions surrounding ancient gods identified with the various celestial bodies in the hope that some astronomical information may have been preserved in the literature surrounding these figures. That the gods were identified with the planets early on is well-known, of course, being a fundamental ...

He and colleagues now appear to have found such clouds speeding in from outer space. Our stable Sun New Scientist 9.1 .99, p. 15 The Sun sends off flares of ionised gases every few years which interfere with communications and power grids on Earth, but ...
... absolute contradictions met with, and statements which it is impossible to reconcile, may all depend upon the point of view from which the mythological statements were made. But when astronomy helps us to the point of view, the mythological statements, and even the genealogies, become much clearer and unmistakable, and contradiction vanishes to a great extent; ... including those who built pyramids as well. To do this we must deal not only with the buildings, but with the associated mythology, or, rather, with the astronomical part of the mythology, for there seems to be very little doubt that in the earliest times, before knowledge replaced or controlled imagination, everything was mythologically everything else ...

257. Observations of Venus by James I [Journals] [Horus]
... Venus by James I by Charles Raspil Discussing the observations of solar eclipses in the Former Han Dynasty of China (206 BC to 23 AD), the eminent historian of astronomy, Robert R. Newton, remarked that "in about a fourth of the records . . ., the date listed is not that of an eclipse visible in ... four are correct to within a degree of Right Ascension (the expected celestial longitude of the eclipsed sun)..." Given the reputation for accuracy of ancient Chinese astronomical observations, Newton's remark is surprising. Were these observations of eclipses an accurate description of a past reality? If one examines the entire record of astronomical observations from China ...

... could not have been dropped' there later. It was not meteoric and it seems that it could originally have been covered with gold. Jill Abery, Rodmersham, Kent Astronomical retro-calculations David Rohl greatly weakens the chronological hypothesis which he very ably presents in A Test of Time when he emphasises that Wayne Mitchell's astronomical retrocalculations support his chronology. Wayne ... calculations have every appearance of being very ably conducted. The only catch is that they are 100% dependent on the astronomer's dogma', namely that there has never been any significant unexpected change in the count of days per year. All retro-calculations are extremely sensitive to the count of days per year for the time being, as Wayne Mitchell ...

Shklovsky, stressing point after point, noted that Phobos has not remained in the orbit long ago, calculated for its passage about Mars. American and German astronomers, notes Shklovsky, predicted with great accuracy the theoretical positions of Phobos in orbit. But Phobos astounded astronomers by ignoring the rules of celestial mechanics. It moved in ...
