... From: Kronos Vol. III No. 4 (Summer 1978) Home | Issue Contents The Mystery Of The Pleiades Dwardu Cardona Copyright (C ) 1977/78 by Dwardu Cardona, Lewis M. Greenberg and Warner B. Sizemore. 1. The Problem. The Book of Job, as it has been translated into English, bears a reference to the stellar constellation of the Pleiades the meaning of which has long mystified scholars of Biblical lore. As found in the King James version of the Bible, this reference reads: "Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?"(1 ) The Douay version, however, ...
322. On the Circularization of the Orbit of Venus [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. VII No. 2 (Winter 1982) Home | Issue Contents On the Circularization of the Orbit of Venus Ragnar Forshufvud ABSTRACT After the Saturn nova outburst that caused the Deluge, a flat cloud of hydrogen gas would have been rotating around the Sun. The aerodynamic drag caused by the hydrogen gas may have changed the orbit of Venus substantially in a period of a few hundred years. This is demonstrated by numerical calculations, using a theoretical model for the gas cloud. The effects of the gas on electric and magnetic fields in space are also discussed. Velikovsky's reconstruction of ancient astronomical events requires that the orbit of Venus, originally elliptic like that of ...
323. Seti's Foreign Connections [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. XII No. 2 (Spring 1987) Home | Issue Contents Seti's Foreign Connections Creation and the Watery Abyss of Nu George Robert Talbott "When Thales, who about 600 B.C . acquired fame as the Sage of Miletus put forth the theory that water is the substance of all things, he made a false generalization. " - The Rise of Scientific Philosophy by Hans Reichenbach (page 11). MODERN VERSUS ANCIENT PHILOSOPHY Even as late as the Nineteenth Century, it was not regarded as disgraceful for philosophers to present both logical methodology and substantive world-views in their writings. It is a curiosity of our times that the most influential of the ...
324. Ice Core Evidence [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... , submitting the view that, if Velikovsky's Venus catastrophe had occurred, then volcanic and cometary materials should appear "visible at the appropriate depth in the cores recently collected" from Greenland and Antarctica.(1 ) C. Leroy Ellenberger picked up this suggestion and presented the case against Velikovsky's catastrophic scenario in the Fall, 1984, issue of KRONOS. In this piece, Ellenberger explained that snow falling off the Greenland glacier would contain different amounts of oxygen-16 and oxygen-18 because of seasonal variations in temperature. Ice formed from summer snowfalls would be enriched by the heavier oxygen-18 isotope, whereas ice formed from winter snow would be enriched by the lighter oxygen-16 isotope.(2 ) He also ...
325. The Stone of Shamir (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. VI No. 2 (Winter 1981) Home | Issue Contents Vox Populi The Stone of Shamir To the Editor of KRONOS: There have been many tales of wonderful minerals or stones over the centuries which have related strange and powerful properties of these exotic, deviant objects. Among such was the Philosopher's Stone of the alchemists, which purportedly could change lead and other base metals into gold. The earliest reference to this stone dates from about the seventh century, but because of the mysticism associated with it there is doubt that it could be characterized as a real object, and certainly not with the properties ascribed to it. Another, which was quite ...
326. Electric Stars in a Gravity-Less Electrified Cosmos [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Milton (Ph.D ., Alberta) is a spectroscopist and Associate Professor of the Department of Physics, Lethbridge University, Canada. He edited the volume Recollections of a Fallen Sky (1978), papers presented at a symposium on "Velikovsky and Cultural Amnesia" at Lethbridge University in May 1974, and is an Associate Editor of Kronos. He is currently working on a book on the history of the solar system with Professor Alfred de Grazia. Many problems are clarified and many concepts, such as "black holes", are found to be unnecessary, when we assume that electricity, rather than gravity, is the major force governing the working of the Universe. ...
327. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol V No 2 (1980/81) Home | Issue Contents Letters Clouded Thinking Sir, There is a very genuine problem in ever disproving the Venus "greenhouse effect" assertions, because of a deep epistemological problem which, sadly, is not appreciated by the average person. The thesis, as I stated in Kronos V:1 , can be maintained, whatever is found on Venus. Let us suppose that my model is precisely correct, as I believe, and that Venusian heat transfer is dominated by forced convection of a volcanic type. Sagan, Pollack, Asimov, etc. will reply that a small thermal flux entering the clouds of Venus ...

McCanney, "The Nature and Origin of Comets and the Evolution of Celestial Bodies, Part ll," KRONOS IX:3 , (1984). In criticism to reference #7 of McCanney, C. Leroy Ellenberger says that series of twelve numbers cited are not the "ages of world events," but merely the generally accepted horizons for genealogical ages. C.
