... to have been remote from trade and cultural exchange until the Silk Road developed in the 2nd century BC, an unlikely one and a half millennia later. Britain - from Silbury to Anglo-Saxons Daily Telegraph 20.2 .02, New Scientist 4.8 .01, pp. 44-45, 1.12.01, pp. 46-47 Geophysical surveys of Silbury Hill, the most impressive prehistoric structure in western Europe, have revealed that this artificial chalk mountain' was built in a spiral fashion with a spiral processional route to its flattened summit. Supposedly built in the Stone Age, several hundred years before Stonehenge, it would originally have been a brilliant white and probably surrounded by ...
372. Ever Since Darwin: A Review [Journals] [Kronos]
... of the shallow seas when the continents joined to form Pangaea. Then continents began to part, and their subsequent meanderings "at rates of only a few centimetres a year" (p . 158) thereafter periodically decimated the planet. Apart from the fact that there must have been a "catastrophic event", in the words of two geophysicists in the forefront of drift theory,(3 ) to initiate Pangaea's break-up, would Gould like to provide convincing explanations in terms of continental drift, without invoking catastrophes (and on one side of the paper only), of: (a ) The disappearance of the dinosaurs (who inhabited every continent except for Antarctica, and had ...
373. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Celestial Mechanics and Velikovskian Catastrophism Pensée, Fall, 1972, p. 9ff, and subsequent Issues). In astrophysical textbooks and handbooks, the general confusion is revealed by phrases like: "No one model for the solar corona is generally acceptable." (From: Valley, S.L . (ed.): Handbook of Geophysics and Space Environments, p. 18ff. McGraw-Hill, 1965.) RAGNAR FORSHUFVUD holds a degree in Electrical Engineering from Chalmers Institute of Technology, Gothenburg and is at present employed at the Military Electronics Dept. of AB Bofors, Karlskoga, Sweden. BRIAN MOORE comments: - Velikovsky would dispute the escape velocity figures of both Sagan and ...
374. Heretics, Dogmatists and Science's Reception of New Ideas (Part 4) [Journals] [Kronos]
... Genesis: The Origins of Man and the Universe (1981). Reproducing the same two drawings New Scientist used [p . 127], he states: "The measurements are even accurate enough to identify great rift valleys on Venus, and all of this [including continents' and dry ocean basins'] suggests a planet where the geophysics' is rather like that of the Earth, complete with tectonics, continental drift and seafloor' spreading" [p . 126]. Of course whether or not any troughs on Venus are "rift valleys" is highly conjectural at this time. 210. Letter, Ellenberger to Gribbin, July 10, 1980. \cdrom\ ...

376. THE YOUTHFUL ATMOSPHERE OF VENUS [Journals] [Aeon]
... carbon monoxide and oxygen) and sulphuric acid (into water and hydrogen) should have given Venus an abundant supply of oxygen. However, if Venus is extremely young the absence of oxygen from its atmosphere is fully explained. Perhaps a brief analysis of the evolution of the Earth will make this concept clearer. It is generally held by both geophysicists and biologists that our planet's primitive atmosphere lacked oxygen. The reason is the well known chemical fact that oxygen would have been fatal to any incipient life forms emerging during Earth's early history. Jeremy Rifkin gives this overview of the principle: To begin with, most scientists agree that life could not have formed in an oxygen atmosphere. If ...
377. "The Seasons Alter": Catastrophism in A Midsummer Night's Dream (Continued) [Journals] [Kronos]
... central characters, the relation of the action to solar and cosmic cycles, the possible Saturnian echoes, the element of planetary lunacy and particularly the detailed parallels between the events of 3.2 . and the Martian cataclysms of- 776 to- 687- we may say that the central action of A Midsummer Night's Dream, when transposed into geophysical and astrophysical terms as we have just done, is seen to bear a significant resemblance to the cosmological dramas reconstructed in Worlds in Collision. We may continue the astral interpretation beyond 3.2 to 4.1 , where the upheavals end and order is reestablished. The Sun-Theseus had left the action as soon as Demetrius-Venus had decided to ...
