612. Stonehenge Lunar-Solar Calendar [Journals] [Kronos]
... will be able to demonstrate to your own satisfaction that the monument was an operational calendar that corrolated lunar months with solar years over the 19-year period of the Metonic cycle. Printed on green 10" by 14 ½" parchtext paper, this stylized schematic is perfect for framing as an ideal conversation piece, and has accompanying tet which explains the evolution and operation of the calendar in detail.

613. Is Asteroid Toro A Remnant of Comet-Planet Collision? [Journals] [Pensee]
... serve as a new means of focusing scientific attention upon Earth's entire present and past relationship with Venus. In view of the tangle of new facts and relationships, it is of importance that a study be undertaken to determine whether: 1. Asteroid Toro may be a surviving remnant of planetary collision attendant upon the birth of comet Venus or its evolution into planet Venus between the 15th and 7th centuries B.C . 2. A proposal to NASA should be made for an unmanned space probe to be sent to the asteroid to check the possibility above, along with other scientific investigations. This probe should assume priority over other unscheduled space probes because of asteroid Toro's unique resonant alignments and ...
614. Velikovsky And The Media [Journals] [Pensee]
... on "The Open Mind, ACS, and Velikovsky." Noting that "scientists can be just as cerebrally opaque as anyone else," editor Patrick McCurdy cited Velikovsky's case, as well as the creationist-evolutionist controversy. Concerning the latter, McCurdy quotes a letter-writer: "Why do scientists become so defensive when someone questions the present theory of evolution? Science has always involved numerous conflicts in theory and interpretation, and it has been the intelligent resolution of these conflicts that has provided the mass of scientific knowledge we have today. So then why do the evolutionists refuse to acknowledge the contradictions and disagreements both in and outside of their own ranks." On the correctness of Velikovsky's views ...

... of meteoritic origin has grown in strength. Gallant shows that the impact of meteorites of planetary dimensions must have caused a shift in the earth's polar axis, changes in the spin rate and crustal slips, mountain building, climatic change and the destruction of species. Impacts must have released large quantities of lethal radiation which would alter the course of evolution. The author, who is a mathematician but has done field work in geology and archaeology, offers calculations of the energy requirements needed to produce the observed effects. The book's foreword is by Professor Theodor Monod. PATTEN, D. W.: The Biblical Flood and the Ice Epoch (Pacific Meridian, 1966) (with others ...
616. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Dr. Velikovsky in his historical works, and of which further studies have been made, some of which have reached very different conclusions. However, this would not preclude members from studying other related topics which interested them and which they should be encouraged to pursue; one of those mentioned was the relationship of Velikovsky's postulated interplanetary conflict to the evolution of many pre-Christian societies from matriarchy to patriarchy. So far as possible, it will be desirable for research to be based on primary, rather than secondary, sources, as so many statements of "fact" in the latter turn out to be assumptions dictated by the straitjacket imposed on ancient historians by a suspect chronological structure. However ...
617. Myth and Method [Journals] [SIS Review]
... /son relationship is a social representation of a change in the body dominating earth and sky. Similarities in cosmogonic activity and physical properties of the two bodies may lead contemporaries of cosmogonic events to use the same name for both bodies (cf. W in C, loc. cit.); possibilities for confusion are compounded by subsequent metamorphic evolution of the primitive cosmogonic texts. This type of evolutionary metamorphism should be distinguished from that consequent on shifts in dominance between rival priesthoods, whereby, for example, Saturn-deity myths are transferred - with alterations - to a Jupiter-deity. Scholars can often identify such myths. In cases where ambiguity in the denotation of a cosmogonic agent name is suspected ...

... . Bass. DID WORLDS COLLIDES / "PROOFS" OF THE STABILITY OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM - Two articles of major significance by a specialist in celestial mechanics dispose of one of the main objections to Velikovsky's astronomical theories and offer further support. Dr M. M. Nieto / Dr C. J. Ransom: THE TITIUS-BODE LAW AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM - If the Titius-Bode Law is real, then recurrent large-scale changes in the solar system are unlikely to have occurred. Dr Ransom's response shows that a slight modification of the ad hoc first term of the equation equally well describes the solar system without Venus.
