471. The Critics and Stellar Energy [Journals] [SIS Review]
... scattered glow of the zodiacal light. .. . It is now clear from new laboratory scaling experiments that the particles are semi-absorbing dark fluffy bodies mainly more than 50 microns across. The new model explains the brightness range of the zodiacal light, closely matches the complex polarisation curve for the zodiacal light and fits in well with the nature of meteor bodies. The new model has one serious consequence, however. It causes an upward revision of the mass of the zodiacal cloud to about 1020g." (8 ) My theory can be summarised as follows. Electricity is essential for the function of the Sun, but it does not provide the main part of the solar energy. ...

The swastika may be a representation of Thor's hammer. Ev Cochrane then presented Mars Rocks in Ancient Myth and Modern Science. In this tour de force he reported that a meteor shower in 1911 brought a shower of rocks on Nakhla, Egypt, at least one of them coming almost certainly from Mars! To date, ten Martian meteorites have been identified, five being observed falls. Astronomers are unclear how the rocks escaped from Mars but are now sure that they did. This recognition has been called one of ...

... the spirit of the place", rites which included "incantations and material sacrifices of heathendom", otherwise wizardry and witchcraft when actually human sacrifices were performed.8 Loch Torridon, above Applecross, has a suggestive name, implying torrid, heat, fiery, burning, the loch itself having the aspect of having been hacked out like other meteoric fords and lochs, and cuts its way through the mountains called Shieldaig. Now, this name Shieldaig means "the place of Shiel", or Hell, a character implemented by the adjoining Loch Damh, our Damn. Here, it might seem, lay the traditional place of burning of the wicked when all this region was a ...

... to "cranks". This is that a seemingly wild idea by an outsider might turn out to be an inspiration for a new scientific theory or approach. Historically, it is well known that observations by the common people and phenomena promoted by "charlatans" were often valuable clues for revising erroneous scientific beliefs. Examples are the reports of meteors in the early 1800's when official scientific opinion said it was impossible for objects to fall from the sky; and the often demonstrated but scoffed at phenomenon of hypnotism. At the other end of the spectrum, modern theories in the physics of elementary particles are so abstract and weird that even the most crazy-sounding idea - at least if proposed ...

476. The Ten Points Of Sagan [Journals] [Kronos]
... the first place, I do not subscribe to the, till recently, largely accepted view that the lunar circular formations are all due to impacts of meteorites. I attribute many of them to interplanetary discharges, especially those of the "rayed" appearance, like Aristarchus or Tycho. While not excluding the origin of some of them in "meteoric" collisions, I would attribute the major part to the bubbling activity of the surface of the Moon; this view of bubbling (first offered, as also the impact theory of the "craters", by R. Hooke in the 17th century) finds new converts in modern times. In my Forum lecture of 1953, 1 ...

... the first reports from Magellan respecting non circular craters on Venus was presented in the New York Times for Sept. 18, 1990. There it was reported that a kidney-shaped crater had been observed. The explanation given to explain this unusually shaped structure was that the "kidney-shaped crater appeared unlike any other in the solar system. Perhaps an incoming meteor broke up as it passed through the dense Venusian atmosphere, causing several large chunks of material to strike almost simultaneously in an irregular pattern." (14) However, over time more and more irregular shaped craters were observed so that the first example could no longer be considered unique. Thus an article in Discover states, "Even ...

... years, giving deceptive dates for most of the historical BC period. This revision of Near Eastern carbon dating is a side aspect of Keenan's main work, which has been modelling the c. 2000 BC climatic disruption. He attributes this event to an enormous volcanic eruption in Turkey rather than the recently popular theories of a comet/asteroid/meteor stream. His readjustment of dates in the Near East was necessary to link up the results of the climatic disruption globally, some of which would otherwise have been centuries apart. It remains to be seen how Keenan's theories will stand up. Carbon Dating the Pyramids Readers may be aware of a 1984 project in which some Old Kingdom pyramids ...

... initiated in great part by changes in the solar system. Planets have newly appeared, changed their orbits and other motions, collided or nearly collided, acquired or discarded satellites, become heated and cooled, accumulated and discharged electricity, and, on some of these occasions, involved the Earth in their titanic activities. The number of comets and meteors that have struck Earth is large, but is responsible for only a portion of the catastrophic damage, because atmospheric, electrical, tidal and seismic disturbances can occur with or without bodily impact. Some catastrophes have had large effects upon mankind. They have been allocated to periods during which hominids and humans already lived, now traced back by ...

... ' of the cosmos (polarism). Until now the proponents of these two sets of ideas have ignored each other, but what is really called for is a fusion of the two. Modern discoveries in plasma science suggest that many of the most influential myths were based on eye-witness accounts of a very intense and sustained aurora, accompanied by meteor showers and the formation of a bright zodiacal light. As is well known today, the auroras are formed of plasma or ionised gas in the ionosphere that responds with great sensitivity to the movements of the earth's magnetic field and the influx of charged particles from the solar wind. Plasma experiments have revealed that a high-energy-density event would produce an ...
