... brought upon the world of Athens by the dissension between Oberon and Titania, he must certainly have remembered the Ovidian passage, but the result suggests that the details of Ceres' wrath - itself doubtless a product of racial memory - may have served not simply as a model, but also to trigger racial memories in Shakespeare's mind of the actual geophysical havoc and disarranged seasons which underlie the passage. 5.

382. Velikovsky: Science or Anti-Science? [Journals] [Pensee]
... discussion, and in fact, cannot take the time beyond this brief note from my many duties. However, may I point out the obvious? For the most part, your first two questions are easily answered by reference to the Astronomischer Jahresbericht for the period prior to 1950, and to the similar indices in physics, geology, and geophysics. These will cover the twentieth century. Look for articles pertaining to the composition of the atmosphere, albedo, general spectral and photometric observations, etc. Most of these articles discuss the implications of the findings for the temperature of Venus. There were also review articles in Scientific American, Sky. and Telescope, National Geographic, etc ...
383. Clockwork [Books] [de Grazia books]
... technique appeared by itself to be a tamper-proof, independently set, and auto-operative clock, every technique or test had to take its place in the group of indicators of time, some of which were carried into the setting to measure its time and others of which were inherent in the geology and circumstance of the setting. All too often, geophysicists came to believe that there is scientific validity in what is a purely administrative and industrial axiom-that tools and products should be standardized in as few forms as possible- and therefore they assumed that there must be some true superiority in a tool like potassium 40- argon 40 radiochronometry because it can physically be applied to any strange igneous ...

386. The Apocalyptic Atlantis (The Atlantis Myth) [Books]
... is that in Rev. xviii. 21, where the diluvial catastrophe is attributed to ` a stone like a great millstone' which had apparently been `cast into the sea' and had caused it to rise over the `great city Babylon. ' 84 The passage remains magnificent even though the catastrophe had been of different causation astrophysically and geophysically. Actually the waters of the ocean had been drawn from the north and south towards the tropics by the lunar gravitation. And Jer. xlvii 2 contains another marvellous point: the loss of `Babylon' was caused by `waters rising up out of the north and submerging the land, and all that was therein'. The ...

... of some sort? René Gallant: In impact craters you find the evidence of what has impacted by the study of shock metamorphism, which only happens on impact. Other causes cannot be envisaged because internal forces of the Earth are unable to produce such craters because such crypto volcanic craters apparently are long, faults and all that. But the geophysicists have shown and calculated that the pressures which are necessary to create, say, a crypto volcanic crater of one km, demand such energies that long before such energy is created, the Earth has been blown over. It has been measured for example that the heaviest volcanic explosions which have taken place on the Earth have never given pressures ...
388. Plato's Atlantis and Prehistoric Europe [Articles]
... better grasp of the geology than I have, who are not convinced by the currently fashionable continental drift theory, plate tectonics and all. I certainly wouldn't like to defend it, especially in its present form which is intimately bound up with some of the most theory-laden methods of radiometric dating, and I'm certainly not clued in enough about the geophysical aspects to even attempt to assess it. I stand by others' advice in this. But one note of interest concerns the famous geomagnetic stripes surrounding the Atlantic rift. These are, as I'm sure you all know, supposed to reflect the way in which the material has welled up through the rift over millions of years. Supposedly ...
389. The Origin and Evolution of the Comets and Other Small Bodies in the Solar System [Journals] [Kronos]
... other planets - long ago forced even many geologists to discard ideas about "zone melting" caused by aggregations of radioactive matter, and other similar hypotheses. True knowledge about the nature of the planets is still in its infancy, and it is necessary that a large number of scientists (not only astronomers, but also physicists, mechanicians, geophysicists, chemists, radio astronomers) acquaint themselves with the foundations of the "eruptive theory" Meanwhile, the discoveries of Pioneer 10 and Mariner 10 are important witnesses. 4) During expulsion from a planet, cometary ices would be vaporised; the comet would be dispersed, not congealed. The answer to this question was already given by ...
