Abstract Service Full Text Search adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html The NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) Abstract Service allows the searching of the full text of all scanned articles. The NASA-funded project maintains four bibliographic databases containing more than 3.6 million records in Astronomy, Astrophysics, Instrumentation, Physics and Geophysics, and preprints in Astronomy. Ages in Alignment www.consciousevolution.com/Rennes/sweeney.htm Ages in Alignment: Velikovsky's Chronology of the Ancient World Defended by Emmet Sweeney. The series of books on this site are named Ages in Alignment in direct imitation of Velikovsky's Ages in Chaos. This is due to the fact that ...
... a planet once existed near the asteriod belt. 52 This planet was calculated to have been about ninety times as massive as the earth and to have existed until about sixteen million years ago. Ovenden's hypothesis received additional support from Thornas C. Van Flandern of the U. S. Naval Observatory. At the April 1976 meeting of the American Geophysical Union in Washington, D.C . he reported the preliminary results of his calculations about the orbits of a number of comets. The calculations indicated that there is a tendency for many of the orbits to intersect at a point in the asteriod belt about six million years ago. (Vsekhsvyatski's work and Van Flandern's work challenge the Oort ...
353. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... hoped that the debate will continue, both at this year's Cambridge Conference and in our publications. Meanwhile, I should like to draw to members' attention some recent publications which challenge the catastrophist/revisionist line championed by SIS. John D. Weir recommends we study a paper by Ari Ben-Menahem: Cross-dating of Biblical History via Singular Astronomical and Geophysical Events Over the Ancient Near East', in The Quarterly Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society, vol. 33, no. 1 (September, 1992), pp. 175-190. Ben-Menahem's evidence supports a conventional placement of the Exodus - at about 1250 BC. C. Leroy Ellenberger refers us to two papers in Archaeoastronomy X ( ...
354. Psychoceramics [Journals] [Aeon]
... Species. It has always been axiomatic that questions need answers, but only if the answers already in hand finally have become unacceptable to explain whatever it was that needed explaining. Geologist Frank B. Taylor and meteorologist Alfred Wegener both simultaneously came up with the idea of continental drift around 1912, based on similarities of flora, fauna, and geophysical characteristics of transoceanic land masses. But here again, their ideas languished for more than 50 years before more definitive answers involving tectonic plates were required, and frequently Taylor's own contributions and name are left out of the textbooks. On the other hand, an ancient skull was "discovered" at Piltdown Common in 1912 by amateur geologist Charles ...

356. The Terrestrial Sea: A Critical Model of Science and Myth [Journals] [Aeon]
... is slowly separating, and the two bodies are gradually becoming more distant from each other, perhaps as much as an inch per year. The net effect here is a slowing down of Earth's rotation by some 20 microseconds per year. Not very much coercion on angular momentum, in fact insignificantly minuscule on the aforementioned Catastrophic Scale. Conversely, geophysicist Benjamin Chao of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center has discovered that impounded waters in artificial lakes and reservoirs, accounting for 270 trillion cubic feet of water in higher latitudes, actually increases Earth's daily rotation by 0.2 microseconds. (9 ) These impounded waters act like the spinning skater who has drawn in his outstretched arms slightly, causing ...

... rectangle", but the resolution of the image did not permit further speculation.(83) Like Navarra, Montgomery turned out to be a die-hard. Realizing the importance of ERTS images, he kept his eyes on those he could lay hands on. It was, therefore, not long before he was knocking at the door of the Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska with more pictures to analyze.(84) As Dave Balsiger and Charles Sellier reported: "Dr. John M. Miller's report (September 3, 1974) on these ERTS photos intrigues us because the area photographed is close to where Navarra found his timbers in 1955 and 1969." (85 ...

... , and to where I sent him some material when I found that he is there. . . . Professor Andre Danjon, director of that observatory, as I mentioned in the morning session, created a, well, sensation - sensation of disbelief, if you wish - when in the summer of 1960 at the annual meeting of the Geophysical Union, that happened to be at Helsinki, he announced that after a flare of the Sun that rotation of the Earth lost something like [a ] few milliseconds, which strangely the day thereafter started again to accelerate by microseconds. And this happened more than once . [The] idea came from Harvard - Menzel - maybe [ ...

Finally, in the chart on page 24 King Jehoahaz has mistakenly appeared in the column for the kings of Judah instead of those of Israel. Anticipated Findings In 1956 preparations for the International Geophysical Year of 1957/8 were in progress and Velikovsky submitted a list of proposals for "Tests and Measurements" related to his theories to the organisers by way of Professor H. H. Hess, then Chairman of Princeton's Geology Department. Item No. 5 of Velikovsky's list proposed the following: An analysis of the magnetic inclination ( ...

... and out into the atmosphere, discharging as bolts of lightning. Tesla thought that such a machine oscillating through the Earth might be tapped at a number of place through local receivers to supply energy for local consumption. It would be a wireless electrical power distribution system. This naive and astounding project has not to my knowledge been seriously considered by geophysicists and electrical engineers in these years of energy crisis. Nor, for that matter, has the idea of Juergens, that "once the curtains of thermo-nuclear theory are drawn aside, electrical engineers will quickly discover that the controlled-fusion reaction they have been seeking in vain for a quarter of a century have actually been within their grasp for at ...
