... of anachronistic features in late pre-Columbian and early post-Columbian charts; they were based on knowledge gained by the Chinese and passed, probably via Niccolò da Conti, to Portugal [10]; the requirement for pre-pharaonic Sea-Kings', lost civilisations or extraterrestrials is removed. There are some surprises: for example, that part of the Piri Reis composite map usually assumed to be an accurate representation of Brazil turns out to be a much enlarged representation of southern Patagonia, with attached ice to the same scale. The Caribbean of six centuries ago would have been around six feet shallower [11], which would transform Florida, Cuba and the Bahamas in the way represented on the Cantino map ...

114. Of the Moon and Mars, Part 2 [Journals] [Pensee]
... summit, or very close to the summit, of terrain that trends downward in every direction away from the site for hundreds of kilometers. The summit is more than 2600 meters above the spherical datum, according to Baldwin (69). (The crater site is thus topographically comparable to that of Aristarchus, which, according to Baldwin's contour map, is near the summit of a more-than-2700-meter rise from a plain that is generally several thousand meters below spherical datum.) Shoemaker and his colleagues (70) emphasize that, aside from the fact that Tycho is twice the size of Aristarchus, the two craters are remarkably similar in their structural details, which include prominent central peaks, ...
115. Earthquakes [Books] [de Grazia books]
... zombies [2 ]. When the rocks move, man's world shakes and shatters. Any force that disturbs the rocks causes the earth to quake. Pumping radioactive wastes deep below ground caused earthquake tremors in Colorado a few years ago. A dynamite explosion or a small meteoroid impact will cause one. Frequently earthquakes are associated with volcanos. A map of the earthquake belts of the Earth is practically a map of the areas of volcanism. The same forces must cause both. The primary force could be an old one, unsettled, that is still working upon the rocks. Or it could be a new force. But perhaps the old and the new force are identical: the ...

... from blue to yellow over the last 40 years. It is inferred that about 6000 years ago it ejected a planetary nebula but then remained stable untill 1894 when it suddenly expanded and cooled. Venus - an active surface New Scientist 14.9 .91, p. 14 Some time between November 1990 and July 1991 when the Magellan spacecraft mapped its surface, there had been a large land slide. The survey also discovered a canyon 6,800 km long but, lacking tributaries and the same width along its length, it is unlikely to have been carved by any flowing liquid. The robust will to believe Scientific American July 1991, pp. 122-124 This is a review ...
117. On "The Year -687": A Postscript (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... approximately 81 ½ degrees. Such an arc would pass through not only Baffin Island, but also Greenland and a long stretch of Canada's arctic coast. The ancient pole, then, could lie anywhere along this arc. Here is what I believe actually happened: On the endpapers of Charles Hapgood's Path of the Pole(4 ) is a map showing putative positions of the north pole during the past 80,000 years. Citing paleomagnetic studies of Pleistocene volcanic deposits, Hapgood argued that from about 50,000 until some 12,000 to 17,000 years ago, the pole was situated at a point near 60 N., 80 W. This is just south of ...
118. The God-Kings and the Titans: The New World Ascendancy in Ancient Times by James Bailey [Journals] [Kronos]
... inscriptions ranging from Brazil to Tennessee, and persistent Nahau, Maya, and Quechua oral traditions of white gods who came from across the Atlantic. Bailey is but one of several scholars who have recently posited pre-Columbian cultures of global extent. Among these are Constance Irwin (in Fair Gods and Stone Faces, 1963), Charles Hapgood (in Maps of the Ancient Sea Kings, 1966), and Cyrus Gordon (in Before Columbus, 1971), of whom Gordon stops at the third millennium B. C., while Hapgood pushes back into the Mesolithic Period. My personal inclination is to be sympathetic with Bailey and his confreres, if only because they have the intellectual courage ...

120. Catalogue Of Discordant Redshift Associations (Book review) [Journals] [Aeon]
... this catalogue follows a simple form. At the left top of the page, the central object of the discordant group is listed, along with co-ordinates, type, magnitude, redshift, etc., all on a grey-shaded header. Beneath the header, Arp describes the group and its discordant associations. Every association includes a diagram (sky map) for locating the group. Black and white photos are included for some objects. Some of the photos are superimposed onto the sky maps. (There is also a small section of color plates at the end of the book illustrating the most spectacular associations.) At the end of most discussions, Arp inserts a section titled " ...
