333. An Interview for Television with Immanuel Velikovsky [Journals] [Horus]
... whom you make comradeship, you go through life - you know them perfectly well; not like here. Mr. Riggs: Are there any of those peers, fellow students, of yours still with us, and do you... Dr. Velikovsky: No. Here in America there was one. He was professor of organic chemistry, Illinois Institute of Technology. His name was Vasily Kornorevsky, and he was very keen on my research, and sometimes also very helpful - like the question of how substances could change in the process of catastrophes - in the clouds of Venus and so on. But I remember him from sitting in the same room - in the ...
334. The Neutrino-Sea -- Hypothesis or Reality [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... we know that we don't know where we have been or where we are going. The 19th Century saw the elucidation of the nature of air. The combustion process was defined and heat was shown to result from a kinetic process involving moving atoms, rather than being a fluid called caloric or phlogiston. This discovery led to the development of chemistry as we know it today. Beginning in 1895, the third revolution required Man to radically alter his concepts regarding the nature of the building blocks of nature. The elements which heretofore were thought to be immutable happened sometimes to be rather easily altered. In fact, some were changing into other atoms by a process so mysterious that it ...
335. Comments: on the First Issue [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... From: Catastrophist Geology Year 1 No. 2 (Dec 1976) Home | Issue Contents Comments: on the First Issue We did not find any articles suitable for our abstracting and indexing purposes in it Chemical Abstracts Service Columbus, Ohio / USA Please don't resort to refutations and namecalling, as some other journals did. They presented no catastrophist evidence of any great importance to hurl at the establishment. Your magazine can make progress , if you insist from your contributing writers that they stick to subjects and lines that will substantiate catastrophic events in the Earth's evolution. I hope that you will make a note of this in your next issue, because it will cut down on ' ...
336. Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution [Journals] [Aeon]
... of the life process from non-living matter. One of the requirements of Darwin's theory, Behe said, was a fundamental reason for variation within a species and, although Darwin was ignorant of this singular rationale, biochemistry has since identified the basis for it. And yet, Behe commented, "Science has made enormous progress in understanding how the chemistry of life works, but the elegance and complexity of biological systems at the molecular level have paralyzed science's attempt to explain their origins." Further, and perhaps most significantly, Behe states that "there are compelling reasons- based on the structure of the systems themselves- to think that a Darwinian explanation for the mechanisms of life will ...
337. Book Shelf [Journals] [Aeon]
... July and August of 1976, Viking I and 2 went into orbit around Mars and sent their precious landing modules to the surface in search of the primitive lifeforms alluded to in previous scientific speculations about conditions on the red planet. Nothing whatsoever was found on the planet's surface to indicate life, although there was a brief flurry when a peculiar chemical oxidation-reduction artifact detected by the instrumentation deceived the investigators for a few days. The Viking Orbiter pictures from space showed a totally lifeless planet, although one apparently devastated by ancient cataclysms. Toby Owen, a member of the JPL imaging team, was looking at a mosaic of pictures, taken by one of the orbiting spacecraft passing a thousand ...
338. What is Uniformitarianism and how did it get here? [Journals] [Horus]
... later generations, they succeeded with honors. In 1807, a small group of amateurs had formed the London Geological Society. In the words of one of its founders, they were starting "a little talking geological dinner club." Of the original group of thirteen, four were doctors, two booksellers, one an ex-minister, two amateur chemists who were also independently wealthy, and so on. Only one member had training in geology, but did not pursue it as a livelihood. In fact, an amazing aspect of the London Geological Society is that none of its founders were geologists experienced in or prepared to do field work, but gentlemen inclined to meet for dinner and ...
339. Stellar Spectra [Journals] [Aeon]
... to have and the fuel requirement for the thermonuclear fusion model. The spectra of only a few stars feature dominant hydrogen or helium lines. In the majority of cases, metal lines dominate the spectra. As a result, astronomers assume that the characteristics of the spectra reflect the physical state of the stars more than they do the stars' chemistry. Spectrum lines, though generally identifiable from terrestrial experiments, show stellar components which arise from energy transitions not normally observed in the laboratory. These wavelengths are sometimes predictable from first principles. Independently of other factors, the complexity of an element's spectrum depends upon how clustered the available energy states are and how they split in electric and magnetic ...

... fall of Agade Gudea of Lagash continued the tradition of making statues of black diorite."5 In his tome, Ancient Mesopotamian Materials and Industries: The Archaeological Evidence, P.R .S . Moorey fails to mention that diamonds or topaz were known to the early Mesopotamians; he does discuss: "Corundum (Emery). In chemical terms this is aluminium oxide. It can be found in a variety of colours notably red (ruby) and blue (sapphire). It is extremely hard, registering 9 on the Mohs scale. Neither of these precious stones has been reliably reported in use as a gemstone in Mesopotamia before the final quarter of the first millennium B ...
