... phenomenon which is widely regarded as favouring the big bang theory coupled with photon transmission whereas in reality the empirical search for a material ether coupled with wave transmission is still in its infancy. David Eccott, London, UK: Evidence of Contact Between America and the Old World Before Columbus Columbus had arrived in the New World with a very old map in his mind, and consequently named it as the region which he believed he had reached - the Indies. As such, it conformed to the established doctrine of the time, that the globe consisted of one land mass with one "ocean river" running around it. It was the Italian scholar Amerigo Vespucci, who first led ...
462. Monitor. C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... p. 13, Science Frontiers 137, p. 2, 139, p. 2, 140, p. 2 The fiercest dust storm in decades engulfed Mars in 2001. This raised the temperature on the planet and may have contributed to the shrinking carbon dioxide cap at the south pole. Water is still a problem; a mineral map revealed two locations rich in haematite, which is usually precipitated from water, but on the other hand feldspar was found which would not exist if water were present, Mars also lacks a debris layer, such as that found on the Moon, and is deficient in small craters as though something has scraped the surface clean, yet other ...
463. Reversals of the Earth? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... S plane. In the initial state (a ) N and R[bar] are together; in the final state (e ), S and R[bar] are together, with R[bar] being the fixed feature with respect to an external observer. N,S : Geographic Poles (as fixed features on our maps of the continents, irrespective of the instantaneous rotation poles) P[bar]: Primary rotation vector S[bar]: Secondary rotation vector R[bar]: Resultant rotation vector which defines the direction of the magnetic field at any instant. (In (a ) and (e ), S = 0 so R[ ...
464. Still Facing Unfair Criticism (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... since been dated to have occurred between 2500 to 5000 years ago. This will be published not a year hence, not in a different journal, not even by a different author, nor even in a different article. In the very same article by R. T. Walcott, we find on p. 9: A world "Map of radiocarbon dated specimens in the time range 2500-5000 years BP; the triangles are land derived peats now found below sea level; the dots are shells now found above sea level." While Walcott considers them to be due to "coastal uplift and tilting", looking at their distribution, one cannot help but think of axial shift ...
... by the great, and now extinct, volcano Ben Mhor, or Great Mountain, and this I believe represents the ancient Prometheus. It is necessary, of course, to examine the topography of this region with some care, beginning with the Caledonian chain of lochs whose waters debouch from Inverlochy into the Firth of Lame opposite Mull. The map of the area will assist the reader to distinguish the main features and place-names used. Inverlochy, a fertile inland carse, enclosed on all sides by towering mountains, answers to the original Phthiotis (or Phthia), in Thessaly, where Deucalion ruled. It is enclosed on the south and east by the great Lochaber range (Ben ...
466. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... East Africa must have been omnidirectional, not merely northward, for it has been established by Hillary Deacon and Profeesor P. V. Tobias [1 ] that 100,000 years ago there was a colony of modern Man' (Homo Sapiens) at Klaasies River Mouth at the southern tip of Africa. According to the evidence in The Maps of the Ancient Sea Kings by Charles Hapgood, Antarctica, at this period, was ice-free and both Southern Africa and South America were in the same juxtapositions as at present. Therefore I contend that the migration of Negroid' people into South America was much more likely by this route than across the Pacific Ocean. A further indication of ...
467. Geomagnetic Effects of an Earthwide Event in 2300BC [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . particularly surprising near the poles, which is where a dipole field would have maximum intensity of flux. Localized field oscillations. Large amplitude oscillations occur in the field under Indonesia in the region of the undulations of the magnetic equator. These oscillations do not propagate despite their wave-like appearance. This description differs from what has previously been inferred from maps of the [geomagnetic] surface field. Westward drift occurs only in certain well-defined regions of the core; indeed, in the northern Pacific Ocean there is slow eastward drift. Flux spots are observed to drift rapidly westwards, while flux bundles appear to be static. The separation into drifting and standing features is not possible by wavelength alone ...
468. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... have been pleased to interpret these as revealing processes similar to those operating on Earth. Lines zig-zagging the surface of Venus are tinsel fractures', caused by a pulling apart of the crust; a pit crater nearly a mile across is volcanic (and not meteoritic) in origin, and a huge Venusian valley has similar fault patterns to that mapped in the Rhine Graven region of Germany. Venus is hot, 468 C, but Venus heat is now thought to be due to a global warming process similar to that Earth underwent in its early history. Life From Space source: Scientific American April 1990, p. 13 Hoyle and Wickramasinghe wrote a letter to Nature pointing out the ...
469. Is the Universe Finite? [Journals] [Aeon]
... I went outside one starry night, gazed up at the sky, and said, "Geez, look at all the white holes!" One might be moved to say that whenever cosmologists encounter astrophysical loose-ends or uncover a perplexing can-of-worms they invent superstrings to pick up the loose-ends and worm-holes to account for them. Finite & Metallic This ongoing mapping of the known and observable universe has brought up an interesting topological feature. The structure of the galactic universe has shown itself to be analogously similar in many respects to a super-enormous crystal of calcium, according to Grant Mathews of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, in a recent presentation sponsored by the Golden Gate Institute of Chemists for which I'm ...
470. The Mesoamerican Record [Journals] [Pensee]
... close approach which resulted in minimizing the danger posed by the latter planet to the earth, it is possible to speculate that the 12th century marks a crucial phase in that event. In any case, the Olmec flowering gives an example from the other side of the globe of a people coming to life after the same centuries of paralysis. Map of La Venta, and Ceremonial Center (From Heizer) Let us now look more closely at the datings which Bernal has correlated from the work of archaeologists at the three principal sites of the Metropolitan Zone, La Venta, Tres Zapotes, and San Lorenzo. The first period from 1500 to 1200, which Bernal calls Olmec I, ...
