... event in historical times which entailed changes to the calendars was a planetary near-miss, rather than the direct impact of a smaller body. In an end-of-chapter note he states: "The limited value of Velikovsky's theories will be discussed in a subsequent work." Unfortunately that work was never published. Bombarded Earth has many interesting photographs and diagrams. Maps are included, showing sites of possible meteoritic impacts, some of which are of enormous diameter. These are generally confirmed by the world map adorned with many circles which is in the New Scientist article, "Astrons - the Earth's oldest scars?" by J. Norman et al. (24 March 1977, p. 692) ...

... /80, p.410. As our readers have pointed out, this item was unsigned, and could be taken therefore, to reflect the general view and outlook of the publication and presumably met with general editorial approval before printing, Accompanied by a stylised artist's impression of the Venusian surface, it read as follows: - "Radar mapping of Venus by the Pioneer spacecraft now in orbit around the planet has enabled NASA's artists to produce pictures of the planet's surface. The main features to emerge are three continental masses, surrounded by smooth plains across which great rift valleys strike. This is exactly the sort of picture the Earth would provide if our oceans were dry, except ...

... c. 12,000 BC. They left some residual knowledge and some of their works, the fingerprints' of this lost civilisation, survive to this day, including some of the world's great stone structures in Egypt and Central America, the mathematics of the Olmecs and Mayans and perhaps their early knowledge of world geography as captured in ancient maps. Hancock paid tribute to early investigators but did not mention Velikovsky. Trevor Palmer observed that Velikovsky was trying to shorten time whereas Hancock is trying to lengthen it. John Crowe said Hancock's thesis involves astronomical retro-dating to give the date of around 12/11,000 BC but changes in the earth's pole positions, orbit or length of ...
... forms of one of the most ancient gods of Egypt, Ea of Heliopolis." [5 ] Now let us say that the time of Amenhetep IV., according to the received authorities, was about 1450 B.C . The lines of the "Temple of the Sun" at Tell el-Amarna are to be gathered from Lepsius' map, reproduced in the illustration on the next page. The orientation is 13 north of west. [6 ] This gives us a declination of 11 north, and the star Spica at its setting would be visible in the temple. The Temples at Tell el-Amarna. A, the Aten (Spica) Temple; B, the Set ...

... from a kiosk called the "white chapel", attributed to Sesostris I. If the chronology is leap-frogged, this would be impossible. But, again, the many restorations of the Ptolemy's once again make this an ambiguous objection. The question remains unanswered. On Friday evening, Charles Ginenthal presented a paper debunking Sean Mewhinney's debunking of Hapgood's Maps of the Ancient Sea Kings in Aeon V:3 . He claimed that Mewhinney took most of his references out-of-context, especially when referring to Charles' own works, where Mewhinney would often quote an ambiguous statement about the maps in isolation from as many as five supportive statements that accompanied Mewhinney's quotes. Saturday morning, Nancy Owen tried- ...

... , which closely approximated to the ideal Republic proposed by Socrates. However, certain of these various `unessential' passages are probably not mere embellishments, or `padding', but are, rather, to be valued as (more or less) factual statements. Probable distribution of land and water before the formation of the Mediterranean. This map shows, tentatively and in broad outline, the probable distribution of land and water in the area, approximately 30o- 45 o N and 10 o W. - 40 o E., before the formation of the Mediterranean. It is based on the supposition that before the waters of the Outer Sea redistributed by Luna's gravitational pull poured ...

... a part of an unbroken astronomical culture sequence, as previously thought. Hapgood Supported sources: INTERNATIONAL HERALD TRIBUNE 27.9 .84; EOS 65:493 & 65:1226; SCIENCE FRONTIERS nos.36 (Nov-Dec 1984) & 38 (Mar-Apr 1985) The theory of Professor Charles Hapgood, that large areas of the world were mapped in ancient times, has received much overdue attention lately. One of his more extraordinary conclusions was that Antarctica was mapped long before Christopher Columbus set sail for the New World, and that it was largely free of ice at the time. This was his conclusion based on studying maps like the Orontius Finnaeus chart of 1531. Now Dr ...

... The first set of encounter commands are completed and the second set, transmitted to the spacecraft on Monday, begins to execute today. A few residual observations of Callisto and observations of Io and Ganymede complete the observation schedule. The observation plans for Jupiter during this encounter period include a more or less standard set of observations: brightside and darkside maps, North-East-West-South maps, North-South strips, hot spot observations, regional and thermal maps. These observations are complimented by a set of observations that concentrate on the north polar region of Jupiter's atmosphere, including aurora and regions known as haze zones. These haze zones, as their name suggests, are regions of hazy clouds that are associated with ...

... large percentage in the latest series. Later the Oligocene was added by combining some of the uppermost Eocene with some of the lowermost Miocene. ' (W . J. Miller: An Introduction to Historical Geography)" This method of subdivision of the Tertiary is no longer considered definitive, but the basic terminology and divisions still persist. Palaeogeographic maps of Australia (A ) during early Oligocene time and (B ) during Miocene time Look at the maps below, covering various periods of the Tertiary, and you will easily recognise the Noachian Deluge in Australia. Note that several vast lakes and many smaller ones cover over a quarter of Australia during the so-called Oligocene time. This obviously ...
