... assessed Velikovsky's contributions in an impartial manner, sometimes critically but generally constructively. In some fields, SIS contributors have developed his work several stages further and the Society's flagship journal Chronology and Catastrophism Review is intended to provide a forum for this continuing debate in the related subjects of revised chronologies, Biblical studies, mythology, astronomy, catastrophist geology and evolution. In its aim of increasing the possibilities for the exchange of ideas and information within the Society's membership, SIS Internet Digest can be of great value for relaying snippets of information, from the Internet, including reviews, news and articles, and in general for keeping members informed of anything which is going on and likely to be of ...
672. "The Day The Sun Stood Still". File I (Stargazers and Gravediggers) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Stargazers]
... preview of Dr. Velikovsky's findings. It is impossible to give here any idea of the extent of the material he has assembled to substantiate his argument.... Philosophy, science, religion- there is scarcely an area of knowledge or conviction invulnerable to Dr. Velikovsky's detailed and documented denial that the earth's history has been one of peaceful evolution. Larrabee disclosed that the theory "invites skepticism as to the infallibility of the Law of Gravitation," reckoning as it does with the probability that electromagnetic forces also play a part in celestial mechanics, at least under the conditions of a close approach or near collision between two celestial bodies. It happened that he said more than the ...
673. The Titius-bode Law of Planetary Distances - its History and Theory [Journals] [Pensee]
... be at distance 301, considerably closer to the Sun. The most lively period of the history of the Titius-Bode Law seems to be right now. Nieto holds that it is by no means proved valid as a physical law, but that if you do believe it is a valid physical law, then you cannot also believe in recent large-scale evolution of the Solar System. One or the other, but not both. In other words, he says, Bode's Law and recent catastrophism are mutually exclusive. But the story does not end there. Dr. C. J. Ransom points out that by simply replacing the 3 with 6 in the formula shown above, it applies ...
674. Conference: Our Violent Solar System [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... semi-stable state until disruption. During this state the column may be a source of intense x-rays whose intensity is greatly enhanced if two filaments are in interaction. The instability can also take on a sawtooth structure with a violent snaking motion as found between the anode and cathode of a high power plasma torch or in nuclear mushroom clouds. Reference: Evolution of Colliding Plasmas, A. Peratt, J. Green, and D. Nielsen, Physical Review Letters, 44, pp. 1767-1770, 1980." Conclusion: This, to me, is what the Seminar (and the discipline of catastrophics) is all about. More than anything else, it's an interdisciplinary study. What ...
675. In Kepler's Company. File III (Stargazers and Gravediggers) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Stargazers]
... of disagreement, but our debate, orally and in writing, was carried on in the spirit of mutual respect and friendliness. Our last long conversation took place on April 8th, five days after your interview, and nine days before his death. He was rereading my "Worlds in Collision" and he said some encouraging sentences- demonstrating the evolution of his opinion in the space of 18 months. I assume that the expressions that you mention were not used by Einstein in the meaning you have unintentionally given to them. I think that upon searching your memory you will find that the predominant feature of his in speaking of my book was positive and not negative, sympathetic and not ...

... the book Velikovsky Reconsidered. S. K Vsekhsvyatskii. Professor Vsekhsvyatskii is presently the head of the faculty of astronomy at the University of Kiev. He has published numerous scholarly articles over the past twenty years dealing with the cosmogony of the various small bodies of the solar system. Prof. Vsekhsvyatskii contributed a paper titled "Indications of the Eruptive Evolution of Planetary Bodies" at the 1974 international symposium Velikovsky and the Recent History of the Solar System- which was read in absentia. \cdrom\pubs\journals\kronos\vol0504\002contr.htm ...
677. Heaven's Mirror [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... , it was always interpreted as an aspect of pre-existing personalities. In one way or another, the majority of ancient gods and goddess found their way into symbolic representations of the crescent as heaven's mirror, but as I said, this never seems to constitute the original identity. You can view it as the double-duty of divine figures in the evolution of language. ...
678. Physicist, Historian, And Critic Converse. File III (Stargazers and Gravediggers) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Stargazers]
... implications of such a book." The nineteenth century with its ideas of gradualism in everything, with its love of stability and slow change, produced scientific theories based on these principles, but with the turn of the century and the work of Hugo de Vries there were "the first growl-ings against gradualism." When Barzun admitted that cataclysmic evolution is no less agreeable to him than the gradualism of Darwin, Fadiman said: "You know all scientists who may be listening to you, Mr. Barzun, are condemning you at this moment." Barzun answered: "No, I would say to them that they're habituated to one thing rather than another.... ...

... the same masses, chemical compositions, and radii as planets." [9 ] Less massive than the lightest brown dwarfs, but still more massive than the heaviest planets, Alan Boss suggested the term "sub-brown dwarfs" as a designation for these objects. But, as Glen Schneider opined: "Give a billion years of cooling and evolution, and these objects may be indistinguishable from planets." [10] Or, as Maria Zapatero-Osorio stated: "With time, they will look like Jupiter and Saturn." [11] Brown dwarf stars, it is also known, have a tendency to travel alone in space. By this is meant that they themselves are ...
