... level III mention " 'star, Inanna, rising sun' and . . . star, setting sun, Inanna. ' . . . Taken together, these archaic texts constitute evidence that Venus, the star of Inanna, was known shortly after -3000." Huber stressed that "the Inanna symbol sometimes looks like the drawing of a comet," but he claimed that the similarity "is not borne out by the more elaborate representations." Velikovsky commented, in the discussion period, as follows: That Venus was observed before it came into conflict with the earth is clear from what I wrote. It did not come from Jupiter .. . on the eve of ...
... From: The Mysterious Comet by Comyns Beaumont CD Home | Contents Part One: Meteors And Weather IV - More Earthquakes Introduce New Atmospherics THE year 1926 was a bad year for meteoric phenomena, in the sense that there was a succession of upsets and very little settled weather. It came in like a lion and went out in the same bold bad manner. Let us seek the reasons for this. FLOODS IN ENGLAND, JANUARY 1 - 8, 1926 (a ) On January I a sharp earthquake was felt in Innsbruck, Vienna, Budapesth, and Northern Italy. (b ) On Sunday, 3rd, Venice suffered a shock. (c ) Simultaneously Mount Vesuvius ...

... long been postulated and sought: for instance, the terminal Cretaceous event has been postulated to have been caused by an impact, and, as a crater on land has not been discovered, one at sea has been advocated instead. The crater off Nova Scotia has features similar to land craters suggestive of a causation by a stony meteorite or comet nucleus of about 2-3 km diameter. It is thought to be about 50 Myrs old. Sudden End for Hadrosaurs?sources: New Scientist 24.9 .87, p.25; New Scientist 1.10.87, p.19 A new site containing fossils of Hadrosaurs, their nests and eggs, has been found ...

... a million tonnes of material colliding with our planet. Clube believes the perpetrator of the ancient catastrophes is still out there and even any signs of global warming may be indicating that extra-terrestrial material is already beginning to increase ready for the next onslaught. We were treated to a selection of slides showing that until recently the concept of armageddon associated with comets and fiery missiles from the sky was the norm, and only today's science discounts it all as myth. We now know a lot more about Chinese history when civilisation was much more advanced than in Europe and detailed astronomical records were kept, yet with an emphasis on catastrophe until enlightened' by Europeans. The Chinese were looking for comets ...
385. Venus Becomes The Morning Star, Part 1 Venus Ch.10 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... , Venus has followed an orbit between Mercury and earth, which it has maintained ever since. It became the Morning and Evening Star. Seen from the earth, it is never removed more than 48 degrees (when at its eastern and western elongation) or three hours and a few minutes east or west of the sun. The dreaded comet became a tame planet. It has the most nearly circular orbit among the planets. The end of the terror which Venus kept alive for eight centuries after the days of the Exodus was the inspiration for Isaiah when he said :( 28) "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how ...
386. Our Rock Who Art in Heaven [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... From: SIS Internet Digest 2000:1 (May 2000) Home | Issue Contents World Wide Web focus Our Rock Who Art in Heaven www.sinclairpress.com This book compares stories in the Bible with stories in mythology with current information/speculation about comets, meteor showers, and impact events Mythology isn't about precession or morality, and the Bible isn't a history book. In this iconoclastic work, Ms. Brook explores the Bible as mythology - as a history, not of ordinary human events, but of extraordinary celestial events for which astronomers now have plenty of evidence. That evidence testifies to the arrival of a giant comet in our inner solar system, perhaps as ...

... lunatic frenzies able to be caused by Mars and Venus, which have much greater masses. When I speak of planetary lunacy, it should be understood that I do not refer to fear and desperation at impending disaster seen in the approach of a fiery body in the sky, for that is a psychological phenomenon which occurs even today when a comet is seen.(43) The kind I mean is physical, caused by drastic changes in the terrestrial magnetic field, which produce an alteration in the electromagnetic balance of the body and result, as the American Institute of Medical Climatology noted in its report on the full moon,(44) in psychotic behaviour of a destructive kind ...

... of them by means of the single hypothesis that a star like the Sun .. . carries a net negative charge (of -1.5 x 1028 esu). ' Michelson (1974) notes that Bailey's value is of the right order to account for the anomalous perihelion drift of Mercury. Nongravitational effects are apparent in the majority of comet orbits, some comets showing secular accelerations and others showing decelerations. Djuric has pointed out that a magnetic Earth must have an electric field associated with it, and Juergens begins with a charged Earth in order to explain the magnetic field. Juergens (1976) has also reported that artificial button-like tektites have been produced by immersing cold glass spheres ...
389. The Red World, Part 1 Venus Ch.2 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... in Collision" © 1950 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents The Red World In the middle of the second millennium before the present era, as I intend to show, the earth underwent one of the greatest catastrophes in its history. A celestial body that only shortly before had become a member of the solar system a new comet came very close to the earth. The account of this catastrophe can be reconstructed from evidence supplied by a large number of documents. The comet was on its way from its perihelion and touched the earth first with its gaseous tail. Later in this book I shall show that it was about this comet that Servius wrote: "Non ...

... ." (22) This has great meaning because, as I have indicated elsewhere, it was Saturn that was responsible for the creation of the "universe," "cosmos," or celestial earth. (23) But there is more. Swastikas on Indus seals. Swastika on a gold weight from Ashanti. 2. VENUS Comet Hale-Bopp, even now on its way toward Earth, due to be at its closest in March of 1997, already exhibits what is sometimes called a "pinwheel" action at the nucleus as presently observed through the high resolution of the Hubble Space Telescope. Such "pinwheel" actions are due to jets which spew out streamers of detritus ...
