... And References | III Nuclear Reactions 1. The disintegration (or radio-active decay) of unstable (or elements with emission of radiations. Such transformations (or transmutations) are called nuclear reactions. Nuclear reactions may also be produced by the splitting up of the nuclei of (even stable) atoms. This splitting up of nuclei will produce new chemical elements which are generally unstable and which will attain stability by normal decay. The `breaking up' (or rupture) of nuclei is called fission. Another kind of nuclear reaction consists in the combination of the nuclei of two chemically different atoms to form a new element which may be stable or unstable. Such a reaction is called ...

233. Mutations And New Species. Ch.15 Cataclysmic Evolution (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... the vinegar fly, including various colourings of the eyes and various lengths of wings, and many other changes in progeny not present in any of the ancestors. H. J. Muller, by subjecting the vinegar fly to the action of X-rays, increased the frequency of mutations one hundred and fifty times. It was also found that some chemicals and temperatures close to the limits that the insect organism can endure may act as mutation-provoking agents. Muller concluded that spontaneous mutations are "usually due to an accidental individual molecular or sub-molecular collision, occurring in the course of thermal agitation," and this is indicated "by the amount of rise in the frequency of mutations that is observed ...
234. Fossil Deposits [Books] [de Grazia books]
... , pebbles, and sand. Fossil deposits may include on the one hand mineralized or petrified remains, or on the other hand preserved organic remains. The basic principle of fossil analysis requires every fossil occurrence to be approached as a catastrophic event. Quick burial of a potential fossil is essential. Then, occasionally, one or more of several chemical processes will preserve some of the organic structure itself, or an image of it, for posterity. R. Redfern summarizes fossilization for us, letting disaster pop out of a fully uniformitarian ideology in an analogy of the "fossil food" in a supermarket. Paleontologists sometimes find fossilized animals preserved in an almost complete state: sloths in ...

238. Thoth Vol V, No 1: Jan 15, 2001 [Journals] [Thoth]
... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .by Wal Thornhill- the possibility that previous civilizations have already "blasted themselves back into the stone age." One reason I find this possibility incredible is the extensive infrastructure required to create nuclear weapons, and the intense contamination caused by nuclear reactors, chemical plants (for making conventional explosives), electronics factories, etc. As far as I know, no evidence of such ancient toxic sites exists. And the nuclear explanation cannot account for the "fighting sky chariots," or the imagery of lightning bolts. (As we know too well, nukes are more like "balls of ...
239. Cratonic Stability and Rapid Erosion Events [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... Fairbridge, 1978), and variations in spin rates which affect the equatorial bulge (Stacey, 1969). The cratonic regime, as envisaged by Fairbridge and Finkl (1979), alternates between high and low relief states. The condition of high sea level with restricted land areas is marked by a moist climate, dense vegatation, deep chemical weathering and soil formation. The low sea-level condition, an unstable, erosive phase, is associated with expanded land areas, amplified relief, and more continental climates. These two conditions correspond to the biostatic and rhexistatic states of Erhart (1950) in his Theory of Biorhexistasy. The biostatic state is the normal' inasmuch as it is ...

... immense variety and to use this knowledge to practical ends like making cement and finding oil. To all of which the quantavolutionist says "amen." Neither geology, nor any other science in its historical aspect, has to fear the idea of collapsed time, but can derive theoretical benefits from it. Let us speak for a moment of chemical evolution. Should it be as well termed quantavolution? I have here above (Page 119) spoken of the Miller-Urey experiments on the initiation of primitive life processes, and have generally considered the possible derivation of earthly existence from exoterrestrial and atmospheric sources. In Solaria Binaria we go farther into the matter, elaborating the life-creating and sustaining plenum ...
