... Velikovsky or his supporters could offer further explanation, now that the claim appears to have been substantiated. Much the same course of action can be urged on Velikovsky in connection with his prediction (" Forum Address" Supplement to Earth in Upheaval) that radio noises would be found coming from Jupiter. Says he: "In Jupiter and its moons we have a system not unlike the solar family. The planet is cold, yet its gases are in motion. It appears probable to me that it sends out radio noises as do the sun and the stars. I suggest that this be investigated." The story of this claim, made on October 14, 1953, and ...
422. The Velikovsky Affair [Books] [de Grazia books]
... rotation (1950); Mars' atmosphere contains quantities of argon and neon (1945); Mars is moon-like, battered and geologically active (1950); there have been many reversals of Earth's magnetic poles (1950); Some of Earth's petroleum was deposited only a few thousand years ago (1950). And successful deductions about the Moon: Hydrocarbons, carbides, and carbonates will be found (July 2 and July 21, 1969); strong remanent magnetism in rocks (May 19, 1969); pockets of radioactivity (March 14, 1967); excessive argon and neon in the regolith (leading to incorrect age estimate) (July 23, 1969); ...
423. Collapsing Tests of Time [Books] [de Grazia books]
... land robbery. Half of the stolen sediments were never there. Great forces, operating in short periods of time, have fluxed the crust of the Earth so thoroughly that a great many strata of false identity and false age have been created. The other half of the sediments was stolen by "Uranus Minor" and stashed away on the Moon: the method will be explained in Chapter 7. RAPID SEDIMENTATION Rates of sedimentation are usually estimated on the basis of contemporary rates. Allowances are made for demonstrable past events but these are interpreted on gradualist lines. If the Grand Canyon's age is calculated as an eroded river channel, its age is great. But if it is regarded ...
424. The Tertiary Age (Life History of Our Earth) [Books]
... Abluvial Period The Pluvial Period The Formation of Mineral Deposits The Satellites and Life on our Earth The Breakdown of the Satellite The Migrations of the Anchorage Bollard Evidences of Earlier Satellites The Continental Tables The Capture of Luna Chapter VI The Tertiary Age We might now try to consider in more detail various aspects of the geological work of the predecessor of our Moon, the Tertiary satellite', the sum-total of whose activity in the life history of the Earth we call the Tertiary Age According to Hoerbiger's Cosmogonic Theory, the geological ages of the Earth are reckoned from the capture of one satellite to the capture of the next. Each geological age consists, therefore, of a satellitic and an asatellitic ...
425. The Sun Of Night [Journals] [Kronos]
... night furnishes."(28) Jastrow's explanation of this phenomenon, however, is a very lame one: "It was argued, that since there was a sun furnishing the light of day, so there must be some corresponding power which causes the illuminations of the heavens at night. Saturn was chosen- in preference even to the moon because of the slowness of its movement, which made it visible continuously for a long period . . . ,( 29) Jastrow continues by telling us that the light of the Moon, as well as of the planets and the stars, was, by the Babylonians, ascribed to Saturn. (30) But would the Babylonians ...

427. Thoth Vol III, No. 4: Feb 15, 1999 [Journals] [Thoth]
... pg. 2) Thornhill's electrical theory of the same data begins with "The fly-by of Comet Halley didn't show material being boiled away, instead it showed plasma beams centered on craters facing the sun. What we saw were circular craters being formed right in front of the Giotto cameras - producing the same kind of scarring seen on asteroids and moons. It was confirmed by the discovery of x-rays and high energy ions near the nucleus that the material was being electrically removed. " [THE ELECTRIC UNIVERSE CD, pg. 43] Thornhill goes on to discuss non-gravitational orbital anomalies of comets, then challenges received opinion that a comet is defined by its size and composition. He claims ...

... magnetosphere, enters a neutral zone and then a negatively charged inner zone, and finally strikes the Earth's atmosphere with warming and radioactive effects. (Jupiter does not "need" the Sun's heat; it radiates several times as much energy as it receives from the Sun.) A great proportion of all the craters and many fissures of the Moon and Mars, and, though less visible, of the Earth, are explained by Juergens as the effects of cosmic lightning, occurring during the holocene period that we are studying. The "plasmoids" which I referred to earlier are a type of lightning conducted to Earth as "pieces of plasma." These balanced "things" ...

... natural disaster and the Indo-Europeans came down from the Plateau.) The low continental Pangean mass to the south and east ultimately was partly flooded by the waters of the sky, never to reappear again. Higher elevations constituted the South Seas islands of today. This can be called Australasia. It is a land that has the Tethyan shear and moon basin through its northern belt, the northern trans-Asiatic rift to its west, and the South Pacific fork moving eastwards and finally up to mark its southern and eastern limits. The northern extremity of Pangea was depressed originally by the ice cap and is still rising, although at a decelerated rate. The fjords mark sheared continental mass, sharp ...
430. Gods and Giants (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 8 Gods and Giants The battle of a god-hero against a dragon-monster sometimes takes the form of fight of the gods against an aggressive race of Titans or giants. The view taken in this book is that there is no difference between the dragon with its crew of grisly monsters and the serried ranks of the giants, both being phases or aspects of the breakdown of the Tertiary satellite. In ancient mythology we find various indications of their close relationship or identity. The dragons drop abominable excrements; the Titans hurl huge rocks; fire is in one way or another connected ...
