... 1975) Home | Issue Contents Editorial Statement As we begin the last quarter of the twentieth century, we also embark upon the second twenty-five years of a new direction of interdisciplinary thought, scholarship, and synthesis. For it was twenty-five years ago, that one individual- Immanuel Velikovsky- revived the concept of the Renaissance Man and first openly crossed the artificial boundaries of specialized study in an effort to fathom the riddles of the Cosmos and unravel the tangled web of human endeavor in all its manifold aspects. KRONOS, Lord of the Universe during that period of time known as the Golden Age; and with KRONOS we hope to inaugurate a second Golden Age of intellectual pursuit whose light ...
282. NASA Astrophysics Data System Abstracts [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... pp. 293-294. The astronomically determined dates of Phaenomena's origin are surprising ancient (about 2000 B.C ). The contents of the poem, however, refer to rather advanced astronomical concepts that can not be accounted for as later revisions. They may be related with the mythology of the Egg-World. Data on the constellation's synchronous ascensions and crossing by the equinoxial and heavenly tropics might result from an ancient search at some Stonehenge-like observatories.

283. The Censorship of Velikovsky's Interdisciplinary Synthesis [Journals] [Pensee]
... do highly technical original research in more than several distinct specialties for each scientist. But no man today can hope to correct the mistakes in any more than a small subfield of science. And yet Velikovsky claims to be able to dispute the basic principles of several sciences! These are indeed delusions of grandeur!" This same injunction against the crossing of disciplinary boundaries seems to underlie also the criticism directed at Larrabee and Oursler four paragraphs later: "No, I have not read the book. I have read the ballyhoo that preceded it, written by such authorities' as Eric Larrabee and Fulton Oursler, whose ignorance is exceeded only by their colossal conceit." One notes in ...
284. HORUScope [Journals] [Horus]
... to the contribution "The Ching Hsing" by Charles Raspil, it may be that the "astronomical absurdities" referred to involving Venus rising in the West and setting in the East can be viewed in a rather different light if we are prepared to consider the possibility that an object associated with Venus in fact a spacecraft from Venus - was crossing the sky from West to East. Any spacecraft in close Earth orbit will rotate around the Earth in a shorter period than that of the Earth's rotation, and can be placed in orbit in any direction. The West-East direction is the preferred direction, as it reduces the launch requirements for vehicles launched from the Earth and reduces the landing ...
285. A Hemisphere Travels Southward, Part 2 Mars Ch.7 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... of the last glacial age. Northeastern Siberia is outside the circle; the valley of the Missouri down to 39 north latitude is within the circle. The eastern part of Alaska is included, but not its western part. Northwestern Europe is well within the circle; some distance behind the Ural Mountains, the line curves toward the north and crosses the present polar circle. Now we reflect: Was not the North Pole at some time in the past 20 or more distant from the point it now occupies- and closer to America? In like manner, the old South Pole would have been roughly the same 20' from the present pole.2 The Brahman charts of the ...
286. Of "Pre-existing Ideas" In The Souls Of Peoples, Part 2 Mars Ch.6 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... Of Peoples The similarity of motifs in the folklore of various peoples on the five continents and on the islands of the oceans posed a difficult problem for the ethnologists and anthropologists. The migration of ideas may follow the migration of peoples, but how co uld unusual motifs of folklore reach isolated islands where the aborigines do not have any means of crossing the sea? And why did not technical civilization travel together with spiritual? Peoples still living in the stone age, possess the same, often st range, motifs as the cultured nations. The particular character of some of the contents of folklore makes it impossible to assume that it was only by mere chance that the same motifs were ...

288. Is Asteroid Toro A Remnant of Comet-Planet Collision? [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 2 No 3: (Fall 1972) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered II" Home | Issue Contents Is Asteroid Toro A Remnant of Comet-Planet Collision?Robert Treash San Diego Evening College FORUM Recent discovery that asteroid Toro (1685) travels around the sun five times in eight terrestrial years, meanwhile crossing Earth's orbital plane 10 times, has a special significance. Not only is asteroid Toro governed by this resonance with Earth, but at widely spaced intervals this resonance is temporarily supplanted by a different resonance with Venus, the successive sidereal periods of which planet also occur five times in eight terrestrial years. Since asteroid Toro must henceforth be included as a member of ...
289. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... .1140 BC. In reality it is debatable whether Egyptian control really lasted that late. Others [e .g . Bryant Wood, BAR 17:6 p. 51] have accepted that IIIC1b pottery follows Egyptian control at some sites but assume continuing Egyptian presence in neighbouring areas and a rigid boundary around Philistia across which IIIC1b did not cross. This may continue to be feasible if the IIIC1b period was fairly brief, or if the Egyptian presence in the 20th dynasty was brief. Finkelstein's chronological separation of Egyptians from IIIC1b pottery forces him to postulate occupational gaps at many sites [p . 231]. Finkelstein's two articles shift the archaeology of the whole period, conventionally c ...
290. Focus [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... for such an event is small. By contrast, asteroids are thought of as large chunks of solid rock in comparatively stable (and often near-circular) orbit. Their origins are unknown, however, and are a subject for speculation. Among their number, and in particular among the Apollo asteroids, there are those in stable orbits which regularly cross the orbits of the inner planets. In time the number of Apollo asteroids can be expected to diminish through collisions with planets. Astronomers have speculated therefore that the number of Apollo asteroids must be topped up by some means, possibly by acquiring new material from cometary debris and nuclei. Asteroid 1983TB has been hailed as a breakthrough for the ...
