... him and for his colleagues. "It is a pity .. . that it was necessary for readers to wait until a recent issue of The Reporter to learn, through Mrs. Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin of the Harvard Observatory, that the observations of Venus extend back to five hundred years before the Exodus, thus refuting the absurd story of a comet that turned into a planet." A week after this review by Struve, Payne-Gaposchkin, in a letter to The Reporter, acknowledged that she had not read the book when she wrote her article for the periodical. The Venus tablets were used in my book to establish precisely the point that Venus moved as a comet, not as ...

433. Sword-God, Part 2 Mars Ch.4 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... Lord who wanderest in the night, Horrible, raging Flame-god . . . Whose storming is a storm flood. In one of its great conjunctions, Mars' atmosphere was stretched so that it appeared like a sword. Often before and later, too, celestial prodigies assumed the shape of swords. Thus, in the days of David a comet appeared in the form of a human being "between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem."2 The Roman god Mars was pictured with a sword; he became the god of war. The Chaldean Nergal is called "Sword-god." Of this sword Isaiah spoke when he ...
434. Confirmation of Dr Velikovsky's Theories Regarding Electromagnetic and Electrostatic Forces in Celestial Mechanics [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... , p.9 , but I wish to present a different gloss. Schultz & Srnka refer to enigmatic bright and dark swirls which cross portions of the lunar farside, and link them to lunar regions containing strong magnetic anomalies. These swirls are thought to be geologically young, not magnetised by an active lunar dynamo, but rather by colliding comets acting to amplify the magnetic field (i .e . during impact). As a strong magnetic anomaly has been correlated with swirl Reiner [eta], the authors conclude that the coma of a comet has a strong magnetic field. In WORLDS IN COLLISION, "The End", Velikovsky states regarding a future collision between Neptune ...
435. Shamir [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Law which came to govern the Jewish people, because the real nature of those stones had ceased to be meaningful or were contaminated by similarities with neighbouring pagan practices? The Bible goes on to claim that the cloud of the Lord travelled with the Israelites throughout their journey from Sinai into the Promised Land - hardly something we might identify with a comet. It may be that the cloud of the Lord came to be seen as a spiritual phenomenon along the lines of the Pentecost and tongues of spiritual fire. This might imply that the cloud or pillar of fire was a traditional attribute of the Lord that had become garbled, its real cometary nature/ origin lost to the editors. ...
436. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Galileo, on route to Jupiter, found very little in the asteroid belt but has now encountered a gigantic dust storm near Jupiter. The unlikelihood of the rings of Saturn being as old or as stable as their planet leads to the suggestion that they come and go over the short term. What could replenish the ring material? Passing giant comets? Comets and asteroids New Scientist 12.8 .95, p. 1 and 13.5 .95, p. 19 and Meteoritics vol. 29, No.4 , pp. 440-441 and pp. 530-533 A study of some iron and stony-iron meteorites has led to the conclusion that their parent asteroid was catastrophically fragmented and ...
437. The Moon In Upheaval [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... is the only concept concordant with the evidence. The position of this paper is not to argue from theory or consensus, but strictly from the evidence. VELIKOVSKY'S LUNAR HYPOTHESIS In 1950, Velikovsky claimed that the Moon was repeatedly involved in cosmic catastrophes: Together with the terrestrial globe it passed through the fabric of the great [protoplanet Venus] comet of the time of Exodus, and in the conflicts of the eighth century before the present era, the Moon was more than once displaced from its orbit by Mars, During these catastrophes the Moon's surface flowed with lava and bubbled into great circular formations, which rapidly cooled off in the long lunar night, unprotected by [the] ...
438. Reconsidering Velikovsky [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... will remember Professor Clube speaking, on two occasions, on his theory of celestial catastrophism which has great similarity to Velikovsky's in his use of mythology as a source for what happened on Earth and what people saw and experienced, though his agents are not the planets of the Solar System behaving like billiard balls. His agent is instead a gigantic comet, which he names Typhon, and which was first perceived coming from behind Jupiter (hence the ejection'), travelling through the Solar System, breaking up into several smaller comets, causing meteorite streams which still hit the Earth now at regular intervals, and which is also responsible for fireballs of the Tunguska variety that cause large-scale destruction ...
439. SIS Silver Jubilee Conference: Abstracts [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... all crazy' was to say the least prophetic . Let me give you a resume of main directions that Velikovsky, in my view, has postulated. 1. Ancient mythology is a graphic history based on the experiences of the observers. 2. Cataclysmic events involving planetary bodies occurred in ancient' historical times. 3. Venus was a comet observed and recorded by our ancestors. 4. A nova-type disruption of proto-Saturn, the binary of our Sun, initiated the sequence of major catastrophes 5. The Universe is driven, governed and controlled electrically. We Saturnists have now reached a point in our evolution where we can virtually present our own scenario. There are a number of ...
440. The Erratic Descent of Man [Books]
... Oligocene Epoch, around 33 Myr ago, to cause the growth of glaciers on Antarctica and the transmission of cooler temperatures to other regions of the world by winds and ocean currents. There was a marked fall in sea level at this time, and scattered episodes of extinctions [45,46,48]. Several impacts of asteroids or comets occurred in the final half million years of the Eocene, as evidenced by microtektite fields: the oldest of these has been found the western equatorial Pacific and eastern Indian Ocean; the middle one in the equatorial Pacific, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico; and the youngest (the North American microtektite layer) in the Caribbean, Gulf ...
