This opinion is due to one fact alone: the new moon is the only crescent familiar to the modern age. Yet so routine is the identification of the crescent-ship with our moon that mythologists give almost no attention to specific imagery suggesting a radically different interpretation. Having observed the "unorthodox" role of the crescent-horn, it ...

Tidal volcanism New Scientist 10.8 .91, p. 54 Further evidence that volcanic eruptions and earthquakes can be triggered by the tidal pull of Sun and Moon was produced at the time of the total solar eclipse on 11th July, when the dormant volcano Mauna Loa broke forth with a minor eruption, upsetting astronomers gathered on nearby Mauna Kea to watch the eclipse.

Many pulsars also emit some radiation weakly and constantly, forming a background for the more intensive pulses. quadrature is the angular aspect by which two celestial bodies are observed from a third body to be ninety degrees apart in the sky.

... inside of Earth's orbit; mythology suggests that, at least on one occasion, Venus saved Earth from a "worse disaster" than what actually occurred.) We must introduce here some basic engineering principles. While these are not overly complex, they need to be understood in order to perceive what was happening the "day the Sun and Moon stood still" and other accounts in ancient literature of a series of catastrophic events in the centuries prior to 701 B.C .

The language of the Talmud and Midrash suggests that the same comet returned after some fifty years. Once more it passed very close to the earth.

... that early age. The logic of eloquent facts crowding to testify before the world's great jury shows that the watery vapors driven from the world furnace were eventually made to revolve long as a Saturn-like ring system. This being true, those vapors could not fall except in a progressive decline, lasting through immeasurable ages. Scientific men affirm that our moon is falling to the earth, but that the final collapse is in the wind-up of unknown ages to come. Rings cannot fall directly to the earth, so long as they have a revolving movement, any more than its moon, but must linger as great cloud-belts or bands such as we see today in the firmament of the planet ...
