... , Amy and Mel Acheson who edit the internet journal Thoth, Eric Aitchison and Wal Thornhill from Australia, Jan Sammer from the Czech Republic and Birgit Liesching from Belgium. There was much convivial conversation, a splendid champagne dinner, crosswords and quizzes - interspersed with talks and presentations on subjects as diverse as ancient history, outsiders in science and electric phenomena in the atmosphere. A substantial amount of time was given over to discussion of the Saturnian Polar Configuration' theory, with papers from two of its leading proponents, Dwardu Cardona and Ev Cochrane - and Wal Thornhill explained how it might relate to ideas of The Electric Universe'. However Peter James was also on hand to provide ...

... 2000:2 (Dec 2000) Home | Issue Contents Laura Lee www.lauralee.com Laura Lee is an Internet Radio program which "serves as a forum to meet the researchers of tomorrow today". Dave Talbott and Wal Thornhill recently featured, and three program archived are available: 09/13/00: The Universe is Electric. The universe has an electric component. This missing piece explains many astrophysics puzzles, says our guests. It was the work of Immanuel Velikovsky who set both our guests seeking better explanations. They are gaining the attention of some top level scientists. 09/20/00: The Universe is Electric Part 2. 09/26 ...

... terrestrial axis and its astronomical direction changed repeatedly, and that at a recent date the polar star was in the conste llation of the Great Bear. The length of the day altered; the polar regions shifted, the polar ice became displaced into moderate latitudes, and other regions moved into the polar circles. We arrived at the conclusion that electrical discharges took place between Venus, Mars, and the earth when, in very close contacts, their atmospheres touched each other; that the magnetic poles of the earth became reversed only a few thousand years ago; a nd that with the change in the moon's orbit, the length of the month changed too, and repeatedly so. ...

... Bang nor the Steady State theory explains the beginning of the Universe. No single solution exists, no one theory is flawless. In celestial mechanics the dogma persisted until very recently (and still persists today with some astronomers) that gravitation and inertia are the only forces that affect celestial motions. Yet many astronomical motions are more readily understood when electric and magnetic forces are included as the evidence now clearly requires [1 ]. Frequently, I am called upon to speak to gatherings of space-scientists [2 ]. 0n such occasions I ask the assembled physicists and engineers if there is anyone present who still claims that Jupiter with its magnetosphere can travel through the interplanetary magnetic field without being ...

... of the following meteorites. The next seismic event of 1926 worthy of mention was on May 24, when Mount Iwo, Hokkaido, Japan, burst into eruption after lying dormant for many years. Nevertheless, two or three strange weather vicissitudes occurred in between which were not without significance. On Wednesday, March 2, there was a serious electrical storm which cut out for a time Daventry's broadcasting. Also on Friday, 4th, another severe electrical storm passed over London during the afternoon. The weather up to Wednesday had been warm and fine for March, but on that same day it turned suddenly cold and blowing up a gale. On Friday, when the biggest electrical disturbance ...

... lights, or aurora borealis, and those in the southern hemisphere observing the southern lights, or aurora australis. Significantly, it could be deduced from measurements of Earth's decreasing magnetic field that this was very much stronger a few thousand years ago and therefore any auroral effects would be greater. It has only recently been established that the auroras are electrical effects caused by interactions of Earth's magnetic field with the Solar wind, in which the Earth acts as a generator, releasing power of tremendous dimensions. Photographs taken from space show the aurora to consist of a central polar cap surrounded by an auroral oval which varies according to the degree of electrical disturbance. Where the field lines became more ...

... Laplace offered, without any mathematical development, his nebular model of the origin of the solar system. ) 13 An ingenious observation has been made by Dr. Irving Michelson of the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. He calculated that if one assumes a net charge on the Earth which is consistent with some published calculations, then the Earth's electrical energy is almost identical to its rotational (spin) kinetic energy. He noted that the charge represents just sufficient energy that stopping the rotation of the Earth could remove the charge. He stated: "While it is by no means clear that such processes did occur, it is of singular interest to observe that the energies tabulated ( ...

... the Pharaoh, Aaron, and especially the Israelites, who were shaped into a chosen people. The experiences of this people contained the material of a great and true story of disaster and survival. The story centers upon a scientific genius - Moses - and a new god - Yahweh. Yahweh is recognized as a great comet, as an electrical presence on earth, as the hallucinations of Moses, and as all cognate mental and social behavior in the times and places of Exodus, the Wanderings, and the invasion of Canaan. Of Yahweh, Vriezen has stated correctly: "If this God has to be typified in one word, that word must be: Power; or ...

... expression of opinion were highly esteemed. He said that he would put on the exhibition, and was duly sacked. Donald Menzel, another Harvard astronomer, said that if Velikovsky wanted quantitative refutation, here it was. The electromagnetic forces in the solar system, which were required for his scenario, entailed that the Sun must have a surface electrical potential of 1019 volts, which was plainly absurd. Unfortunately for Menzel, Emeritus Professor V. A. Bailey of the University of Sydney, who knew nothing of Velikovsky's work or Menzel's proposed refutation, came to the conclusion in1960 that the Sun was electrically charged, and had a surface electric potential of the very magnitude that Menzel had ...
