... response to a growing interest in the works of modern catastrophists, notably the highly controversial Dr Immanuel Velikovsky. In his books Worlds in Collision, Earth in Upheaval and Ages in Chaos he argued that the ancient myths and sources such as the Bible contained records of planetary catastrophes in the Earth's history and, based on this, he suggested that geology, cosmology and ancient history should be reconsidered. In cosmology he proposed that electricity played a much larger role than in the orthodox scheme and that Venus in particular was a young planet. In ancient history, he proposed that the orthodox chronology should be severely shortened to eliminate false identifications and fictitious dark ages'. Over the years, ...
872. The Origin Of The Moon [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... According to Chapman: Since the volcanic plains postdate the heavily cratered terrains of the late heavy bombardment 4 billion years ago, we are left with a dilemma: Mercury's core must still be molten, despite the inability of scientists to understand how it could remain molten so long after it formed. Some scientists have challenged the accepted view of Mercury's geological chronology, in order to solve this problem. Contrary to prevailing opinion, they suggest that all of Mercury's surface geology is of comparatively recent origin. All evidence of the late heavy bombardment was destroyed by more far-reaching, subsequent events. There were no magical early heat sources, these scientists suggest [to create a shallow magma ocean] ...

... carbon base; Mars' atmosphere is rich in neon and argon; Venus is rich in petroleum gases; if oxygen is present, petroleum gases will be burning; the surface temperature of Venus is hot enough to melt metals; it rotates backwards; the atmospheric pressure is massive. Prof. Harry H. Hess, late Chairman of the Geology Department at Princeton and Chairman of the Space Science Board of NASA wrote Velikovsky in 1963, "Some of these predictions were said to be impossible when you made them. All of them were predicted long before proof that they were correct came to hand." Velikovsky's further list of advance predictions includes: - the emission of radio noise ...

... of these gentlemen who might perhaps demolish theories by analyzing them rather than keeping silent concerning them." Here Goldsmith was asked by Barzun whether assembling information from all available sources, Velikovsky did omit taking important matters into account. Goldsmith: "It would be almost impossible to imagine an assembly of data that stretched more widely between solar theories, geological theories, theories of the atmosphere, theories of the shift of the axis of the earth, theories of the motions of oceans and of glaciers, theories of magnetism and magnetic effects, and any number of other geological and astronomical theories." Barzun concurred and said: "I suppose that the difficulty is that since no one has ...

... died of scabrous diseases. The most substantial theory of Exodus times regards them as part of a much larger, a global, event, involving the close passage of a comet, so that radiation effects are logically to be expected. Recent studies have discovered high levels of radiation in fossil flora and fauna, going back far in conventionally dated geological time. Kloosterman writes of " anomalous high radioactivity" in a fish from the same Old Red Sandstore beds in which the Pterichtyades occur, "fishes often invoked by catastrophists..." and quotes Hugh Miller (1841) on a quiet but potent agency of destruction erasing "innumerable existences of an area perhaps ten thousand square miles ...
880. Preface (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... of ancient civilization, I described them mainly from historical documents, relying on celestial charts, calendars, and sundials and water clocks discovered by archaeologists, and drawing also upon classical literature, the sacred literature of East and West, the epics of the northern races, and the oral traditions of primitive peoples from Lapland to the South Seas. Geological vestiges of the events narrated in documents and traditions were indicated only here and there, when I felt that the immediate testimony of the rocks must be presented along with the historical evidence. I closed that description of cataclysmic events with a promise to attempt, at a later date, the reconstruction of similar global catastrophes of earlier times, ...
