... pile of rubble with very little ice. It is suggested that it formed close to Jupiter and was therefore of a type which could have brought water and organic compounds to the early Earth. It also seems that impacting comets were responsible for the dozen small moons discovered around Saturn: they are the shattered remains of larger objects captured by Saturn's gravity. The Production of Planets New Scientist 15.9 .01, p. 13, 29.9 .01, pp. 32-34, 24.11.01, p. 11 The planets are supposed to have formed from an initial cloud of gas and dust around the Sun. It is suggested that a massive gamma ray ...
... , seem to have been the productions of hotter countries ; and it is necessary to suppose that England once lay under the sea within the torrid zone ! To explain this and similar phenomena, he indulges in a variety of speculations concerning changes in the position of the axis of the earth's rotation, " a shifting of the earth's centre of gravity, analogous to the revolutions of the magnetic pole," &c . None of these conjectures, however, are proposed dogmatically, but rather in the hope of promoting fresh inquiries and experiments. In opposition to the prejudices of his age, we find him arguing against the idea that nature had formed fossil bodies " for no other ...

... things we observe. It does not mean the last word on THE NATURE OF THE WORLD. We tend to think that the "laws" of science are inviolate, though in truth our formulations are constantly changing, and sometimes the most drastic revisions are needed. It will be obvious, for example, that the familiar "laws of gravity" can only address a limited range of phenomena, and in the forms customarily expressed these "laws" actually invite contradictions. Any high school physics student can see the problem posed by photographs of galactic and globular cluster structures, where spiral arms are visible but the stars farther out along the arms rotate around the center at a higher ...

... showed the calculations of the theory of relativity to be wrong- Dr. Einstein rose after Professor Freundlich had spoken and said that the observations were the most accurate made so far, and consequently a certain modification of the theory of relativity would be necessary." (1931) (4 ). Search for a unified field theory (to include gravity, magnetism, electric effects) to overcome the inherent errors of General Relativity was unsuccessfully continued by Einstein to the time of his death in 1955. Many astronomic studies now in progress or projected are designed to test General Relativity. These include studies of gravity waves, radar from Mariners VI and VII, quasar radio emission, as well ...

... to his heresy for its harmony alone, even when it failed to solve the problem that had led him to it." (4 ) This, in fact, was the concept that drew Johannes Kepler to support the Copernican theory. So too is the Electro-Gravitic theory based on the celestial harmony that is derived by offering a counterforce to gravity. Another argument that some scientists have raised against other scientists who have presented revolutionary theories is one based on credentials. For example Mott T. Greene, historian of science, discusses the arguments used to discredit Alfred Wegener, the earliest proponent of continental drift. "A great deal of nonsense has been written concerning Wegener's profession. It ...

... " (4 ) Many of these boulders are "house-sized blocks." (5 ) Impact by house-sized blocks generally createsforces and velocities capable of imparting escape velocity to most of the ejected material. Michael H. Carr remarks that "The presence of [crater] ejecta [on Deimos and Phobos] is somewhat surprising, since the low gravity. . .must allow almost all the ejecta to escape into space. . ." (6 ) Although Carr claims impacts could leave debris, the probability of this occurring appears small. (7 ) Thus, not only is it improbable that the ejecta came from the impacts, but it seems extremely likely that Deimos was struck ...

... going to sit down for the rest of the day. Peter James: A talk given by Dr Milton on the subject of "Electrified Stars in an Electrified, Gravity-less Cosmos" was a beautifully iconoclastic talk in which Dr Milton bravely launched an attack on many of the sacred cows of modern science including Black Holes and even the existence of gravity as a force rather than an effect. Incidentally, this talk is published in the next issue of the REVIEW which is presently at the printers' and there should be a photocopy of the paste-up on the way for any doubting Thomases to peruse during the tea-break. For those who have not met him before, Dr Milton is a ...

... ), showing again that it should be combined with Review and called the SIS Journal.... With reference to the review of Aeon (Workshop 1988:2 , p. 29), there is a misleading statement under the heading Astronomy' implying that C. E. R. Bruce was reluctant to accept the need for gravity'. This is quite wrong. Bruce claimed that in some circumstances in astronomy electromagnetic forces are more important than gravity. He did not get involved in any ideas concerning the cause of gravity, especially such as those of Juergens and Earl Milton. The Ellenberger-Salkeld exchange has the qualities of a historic document and seems to have knocked quite ...

... percent of normal gravitational pull, according to our calculations. Thus the Earth's bottom side would flatten while its sides would bulge somewhat, much like the pear. On the other hand, the sun-lit "Facing Hemisphere," facing both Mars and the Sun, would be pulled inward toward the center of the Earth minus the effect of the gravity of Mars. Mars of course was pulling in the opposite direction of the Earth's center. Our calculations indicate that, on the bulge directly under Mars, the gravitational attraction on the crust to the center of the Earth was, momentarily, only 98.9858% of normal.Thus, the facing side tended to become uplifted, ...
