... chloride, carbonate of soda, iron and copper chlorides, and sulphides of arsenic; soda, potash, lime, and iron are constant ingredients in lava, as also ammonia and bitumen; boracic acid is another ingredient, naphtha is often present in large quantities, while arsenic and sulphur are common. Thus all the mineral ingredients used in chemistry are volcanic in origin, though not necessarily the produce of the mountain. LAVA ROCKS Lava or flow is a conglomerate rock expelled in liquid form and is found to contain all kinds of minerals, including both the older and later formations. At the moment of emission, lava appears as a liquid of incandescent white appearance, although curiously ...
462. CHZ and Solar System Stability [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... contradictory. If the conditions on the early Earth were the same as on Venus, then the Earth would have had to develop a runaway greenhouse effect. To argue that for some unknown reason it did not occur is nothing but hand waving. We must also consider the nature of the oceans. Carbon dioxide plays an important role in the chemistry of the oceans. As William W. Rubey stated in "Geologic History of Sea Water": Carbon plays a significant part in the chemistry of sea water and in the realm of living matter. The amount now buried as carbonates and organic carbon in sedimentary rocks is about 600 times as great as that in today's atmosphere, hydrosphere ...
463. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... cold lump of rock by now, but the molten core and evidence of recent volcanic eruptions (within the past 10 Myrs) show it is still hot and active. There has even been a double-take on how the iron oxide, which colours the surface red, got there; it used to be thought that it was the result of chemical reactions in warm pools of water in the planet's youth, but it now appears the minerals are more likely to have arrived with small meteors and dust particles. We look forward to more Martian mysteries. ELECTROMAGNETISM Disturbances of Earth's Magnetic Field (New Scientist, 19.4 .03. p. 12; 1.11.03 ...
464. The Social Impact of Velikovsky on our Generation [Articles]
... , writing as a prisoner: "I thought of the consequences that unrestricted rule, together with the power of technology- making use of it but also driven by it- might have in the future. This war (II) had ended with remote-controlled rockets, aircraft flying at the speed of sound, atom bombs and a prospect of chemical warfare... .A new great war will end with the destruction of human culture and civilization. The nightmare shared by many people.....that some day the nations of the world may be dominated by technology-that nightmare was very nearly made a reality under Hitler's authoritarian system. Every country in the world ...
465. The Science of Evolution (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... traditional way) or to equate it with genetics (the modern way). The widespread hostility now being directed by many evolutionists at the merely historical evidence embodied in the fossil record is treated elsewhere.(1 ) Inductive generalizations, based on an admittedly fragmentary sample from the past, can never result in a science comparable to physics and chemistry. Indeed, only physics and chemistry can be sciences in that sense. It is no wonder, then, that molecular genetics has come to the fore as a major candidate for the science of evolution. The emphasis on genetics as the heart of the science of evolution is perhaps best examined in a recent book primarily devoted to genetics ...
466. The Uranians [Books] [de Grazia books]
... world that scarcely knew fire before. We are just at the beginning of a worldwide hunt for signs of meteoroid falls, whether small or large bodies. The amount of cosmic dust on the Earth is now known to be huge. The separation of cosmic fall-out material from volcanic material in the sedimentation of the Earth is a large task that chemical geology is now assuming. V. D. Niemann of the U.S .S .R . has calculated, from present fall-out rates, that the globe must have acquired enormous deposits of cosmic particles since Creataceous times so that its diameter has increased by a factor of 2.6 and gravitational intensity of the Earth increased in ...
467. The Garden, the Fall and the Restoration [Articles]
... where we take worms and educate them to go this way or that way and we grind them up and feed them to the next generation and then another group where we don't feed them their ancestors and we find that those who ate their ancestors that were educated learn that same trick much quicker than the others. Now whether that's genetic or chemical, I don't know. The same thing has been repeated in sporadic experiments. So that would be finding a way of what to do with old professors. Some of these memories are passed on, whether chemically, genetically or otherwise." Question: "Most people who are discussing this are talking in terms of a collective unconscious ...
468. Still Facing Unfair Criticism (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... help but think of axial shift as a dominant cause. The logical explanation might probably be found in the integrated approach of the renowned authority on the subject, Rhodes W. Fairbridge of Columbia Univ. Fairbridge brings, in great detail, the different hypotheses that were put forward to explain sea level changes, in his chapter in Physics and Chemistry of the Earth (ed. L. H. Ahrens, et al., Pergamon press 1961, pp. 99-185) and in shorter form in Trans. N. Y. Acad. Sci., ser. 2, 20 (1958), pp. 471-482: "Three theories have been offered: (1 ) ...
469. The Misread Record by Isaac Vail [Books]
... down from remotest antiquity, yet I must leave it now. An Eden Earth or hot house world necessarily prolonged the life of every living thing. The plant lived on and on, and its fruit-bearing time, and consequent end in death, were indefinitely postponed by the environment. All know that the plant, shut off from the active chemism of the sun-beam cannot mature its seed nor bear perfect fruit. In such a tropic environment lived antediluvian man, and necessarily fall into habits impelled by conditions imposed. It was radio-activity excluded by a vapor sky. We have light-rays, heat-rays, X-rays, and what-not rays, and each set of rays has its own part to act ...
470. Loess [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... , "A yellow colouring matter by a ferruginous [iron rust] substance is never wanting [in loess]."211 M. Fra Schmidt further pointed out that the color of loess "can neither be a quality inherited from the original [terrestrial] matter of which the loams are composed, nor a condition brought about by slow chemical processes after their formation."212The red tint of loess was original to the loess deposits. The metal content of loess is well reported. In Nebraska loess contains as much as 20.26 percent aluminum and 7.80 percent iron." With regard to the concept of a flood, the heaviest ". . . iron-magnesium ...
