... . to c. 1 gen. before the Osorkon III/Takelot III coregency and the death of Djedkhonsefankh C. Since Djedkhonsefankh C was probably approximately just reaching old age himself when he died (hardly younger, due to evidence below bearing on the Nakhtefmut A family sequence of heirs, and most likely little if any older, on general biological grounds- see n. 113), this should date Djedkhonsefankh C to c. 1 gen. after Hor ix, in very nice agreement with their apparently indicated schematic separation, again, by 1 gen. But in contrast (see n. 58), this apparent situation of Djedkhonsefankh C wouldn't fit at all with the usual ...

... . A FOOTNOTE ON VENUS AND EARTH ATMOSPHERES SPEAKER: CHARLES GINENTHAL In my last piece in AEON, Vol.I , No. 6, "The Youthful Atmosphere of Venus," I made reference to the historical implication that life is thought to have been generated in an oxygen-free atmosphere, a condition similar to that of Venus today. Biologist Carl Woese of the University of Illinois, having become critical of the prebiotic soup paradigm for the origin of life on Earth, has developed a proposal that life may have begun in an environment like that of Venus; more specifically, life could have originated in the clouds.

... more reality to the former Satellite, by working out its orbit, eccentricity, size, mass, nodal and apsidal revolution, etc., in greater detail. Representatives of other sciences are also invited to take an active interest in our Theories, since their disciplines are very considerably involved by our findings. Anthropologists, archaeologists, architects, biologists, geographers, geologists, geophysicists, hydrologists, mythologists, palaeontologists, technologists-who are tired of gnawing at already long clean-gnawed bones, will here find new meaty ones to put their teeth into. Here are new vistas to explore! Here are wide fields on which to win spurs! Here are horizons such as they have never dreamt of ...
