... related to this particular path. For now, it may be noted that the polar wander path is not necessarily constant through time. Clearly the Earth is not a rigid body and plate tectonic motions could easily alter the delicate equatorial balance. What one can expect is that in a given epoch there will be a trend along a particular great circle path, which does not necessarily include the present poles. It is noted further that there is no suggestion that a record is left of the polar wander during a single event. A reversal is far too rapid for that to be likely. What is likely is that a series of events occur, each varying in the degree of ...
232. Mother Goddess and Warrior-Hero (Part One) [Journals] [Aeon]
... sun-god's feather In the model here proposed, the first form of the dislodged Venus-heart is as a spiraling appendage seeming to curl out from Saturn. A gaseous stream stretching from Venus toward Saturn would not appear as such while Venus rotated on the shared axis. But once the latter planet was dislodged from this position and began to revolve in a circle around the axis, the interplanetary stream might indeed have presented Earth witnesses with what looked exactly like a curled beard, a curled lock of hair or a luminous "plume" (feather) exhaled by the god. That the heart or eye of the Egyptian sun god was externalized in the form of the god's beard, sidelock or ...
233. Calculation of the resultant angular velocity [Books]
... 976 X 1021 metric tons. In fig. 18, the vectors OM, OV (= MM') and OM' represent respectively the angular velocity w before impact, the angular velocity w 1 about the axis of instantaneous rotation I1I2 and that w r after impact. The point of impact of the meteorite lies somewhere on the great circle perpendicular to the instantaneous axis of impact I1I2. An impact at any point on this great circle, in the same direction with respect to the horizon at the striking point, will impart the same `blow' to the Earth and thus have the same resultant effect on the shift of the polar axis and on the change in the ...
234. Did Worlds Collide [Journals] [Pensee]
... of archaeologists and ancient historians, and asked if any of them had made any serious study of Velikovsky's revised Egyptian chronology; the unanimous answer was that "we understand that Velikovsky has been so thoroughly discredited by the astronomers that it would be a waste of time to study his historical material." This situation strikes me as a tragically vicious circle, for if the evidence from archaeology and archaeoastronomy (29) should undeniably confirm Velikovsky's theory, then the astronomers would have no choice but to revise the physical assumptions underlying their dynamical model of the solar system. Nevertheless, it should be emphasized that, given the accepted model, the specific problem posed above is of the type which ...
235. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... revealing about the post-Exilic period is that all knowledge of the real nature of the pre-Exile god was eradicated. The cult centre of Shiloh was downgraded (it was still in existence in the late monarchy, mentioned by Jeremiah) and Jerusalem was upgraded [6 ]. The old religion became associated with abominable cult practices, high altars, stone circles, and human sacrifice. The opposition was demonised and history was rewritten - as happened after the introdction of Christianity in Europe and Islam in Asia. It seems that an intellectual shift occurred during the Exile, possibly as a result of influence from Persian Zoroastrianism [5 ]. Thompson takes this to the extreme [7 ] but it ...
236. Editor's Notes [Journals] [SIS Review]
... suggests a radical solution to the identity of the mythical substance shamir and I have included a brief review of current debate on Einstein's relativity theory. This issue also features a major review by Geoffrey Gammon on David Rohl's A Test of Time, a book which brings the New Chronology to a wider audience but has no proved highly controversial in SIS circles. No doubt Geoffrey's review will not be the last word on the matter in these pages. Another ex-SIS luminary, Peter James has a new book about Atlantis and this is reviewed by Trevor Palmer. Alasdair Beal News SIS Cambridge Conference July 1997 This follows from the highly successful SIS 1993 conference and will be held at Fitzwilliam College from ...

... , being unable to adjust to the new climate. The Eskimos might become as prominent in the next epoch as the Egyptians were at the beginning of our present epoch. THE MIGRATION OF THE PRESENT ICE CAP WHEN the earth careens due to the combined centrifugal pressures of the Antarctic Ice Cap and the Greenland Ice Cap acting along the same Great Circle, the event will be heralded by earthquakes along the Equator at 45o E. longitude, which is just off the African east coast and at 135o W. longitude, which is in the Pacific Ocean. Those are the locations of points which are 90 distant, east and west, from the assumed points of application of the eccentric ...
238. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... 8º C warmer. Another rather inexplicable ice age temperature difference occurred in the Arctic, where the evidence from flowers indicates that they were still happily growing 18,000 years ago in eastern Siberia, Alaska and the Yukon while the rest of the Arctic was supposedly covered in ice. Could this mean that the Pole, and therefore the Arctic Circle, were not where they are now? Extraterrestrial Influences New Scientist 1.4 .00, p. 12, 2.9 .00, pp. 31-33 Evidence from sediment cores from the Atlantic Ocean has already built up a picture of sudden and cyclical climate changes, starting with 8000 year Heinrich events' and recently suggesting another ...
239. The Magnetic Tube and the Planetary Orbits [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field An electrically charged particle moving in a magnetic field is subjected to a force acting perpendicular to both the direction of its motion and the direction of the magnetic field. The result is that charged particles move freely along a magnetic field. The motion of the charge becomes helical because the constraint forces the particle to circle around the magnetic field while the particle translates along the field. Electrons and ions spiral in opposite directions. The circular magnetic field surrounding the axial electrical discharge was also responsible for the production of much electromagnetic radiation within the plenum. Radiation would be emitted as ions and electrons were forced to spiral around the curved magnetic field lines of the ...
240. Forum: In Defence of the Saturn Theory C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... system: Such was the mind and thought of God in the creation of time. The sun and moon and five other stars, which are called the planets, were created by him in order to distinguish and preserve the numbers of time; and when he had made their several bodies, he placed them in the orbits in which the circle of the other was revolving - in seven orbits seven stars. First, there was the moon in the orbit nearest the earth; and next the sun, in the second orbit above the earth; then came the morning star and the star sacred to Hermes, moving in orbits which have an equal swiftness with the sun, but ...
