... , supposedly, would eliminate Earth's entire food chain while turning winter into a scalding summer. What this would do to life on Earth remains anyone's guess. Meanwhile, closer to home, a planetary satellite has been found to radiate its own light- something hitherto unheard of. The satellite in question is Io, the most mysterious of Jupiter's moons. Data from the Galileo spacecraft indicates that, when Io passes into Jupiter's shadow, it gives a better view of the glow of lava outpouring from its volcanic craters. But, besides that, Io's atmosphere was also found to be glowing. Paul Geissler, a planetary scientist hailing from the University of Arizona, has stated that: ...
782. "As Above, So Below" Earthquakes, Volcanoes, and Straight-Line Phenomena [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... rated high; those in hard fields- earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, solar effects- are of moderate or low confidence levels. (" Soft" and "hard" are my terms.) Another searcher, Ryall [1967:403], finds "a statistically significant correlation" between after-shocks and the position of the sun and moon, presumably setting up "quake-producing stresses in the earth's crust by gravitational attraction." Where volcanoes are concerned, more knowledge is available in view of the fact that something remains after activity ceases and studies can be undertaken. Yet scientific conclusions about volcanoes are not much different in scope and theory than those for earthquakes. They both reveal ...
783. Catastrophism and the Old Testament: The Mars-Earth Conflicts [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... " of experts in various disciplines- physics, engineering, geomagnetism, and celestial mechanics. He employs their input to help develop a model he can then use to establish a scientific basis for his subsequent arguments. He provides a detailed account of the recently discovered flux tube of ions and charged particles that connects the planet Jupiter to its inner moon Io. Basically, this flux tube is an electrical connection between the two heavenly bodies that allows massive exchanges of electrical energy. Scientists postulate that there are spectacular and even cataclysmic events that can take place on both bodies resulting from this flow of energy. Based upon this model, Patten postulates a similar flux tube between Earth and Mars ...

785. Magnetic Models of the Polar Configuration [Journals] [Aeon]
... the boundary surface of the solid iron-nickel and further thickened the actinide layer at and near the equatorial plane. Other details of this postulated formation of a natural planetary nuclear fission bomb have been published elsewhere. (9 ) Helios and its stellar wind were much as they are today. The pre-Golden Age planets included Earth, possibly with its present Moon, and at least one supergiant. As an uniformitarian system- between cosmogonic catastrophes- its planetary spins were nearly normal to the respective orbital planes and those in turn were mutually nearly parallel. How many such orbits were there? In view of the basic hypothesis of planetary fragmentation by nuclear detonations and possible merging by gravitational and magnetic capture ...
786. The Electro-gravitic Theory Of Cosmology [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... than your head is because gravitation increases as distance decreases. The difference in the gravitational attraction between two ends of an object is the tidal effect. "Under ordinary circumstances, tidal effects aren't great. "86 However, the more massive a body is the more powerful its tidal effects on nearby, smaller masses. For example, the Moon creates a tidal effect on the oceans of the Earth. If the Moon were much closer to the Earth, the ocean tides would be much larger. Conversely, the Earth produces a tidal effect on the Moon thereby generating a tiny bulge which faces the Earth. If the Moon were much closer to the Earth, that bulge would ...
787. Proposed Variations on the Saturnian Configuration [Journals] [Aeon]
... to have been of more or less the same size, Jupiter would have disturbed Saturn's orbit around the Sun. In my opinion, the polar configuration would have been much more possible if all the planets were in one row, orbiting the Sun in the same plane: Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, Mars, Earth (possibly with the Moon), and Mercury, with the last being closest to the Sun. The terrestrial land-mass would have been concentrated in the north so that the Sun would have been invisible to people on Earth. As seen from Earth, Jupiter (were it at all visible) and Saturn would have appeared as about the same size with the possibility ...
788. Astronomical Computation [Books]
... and coinciding with the same seasons at which the shadow cast by the stick was shortest and longest at midday. Man could thus measure the number of days in a year, and determine the shortest day (winter solstice) and the longest day (summer solstice). Shorter periods could be determined by using the regular return of the full moon (lunar month) or the phases of the moon (weeks). We may thus suppose that very early in his history man devised some kind of calendar, which, although lacking the precision of modern computation, gave him the correct number of days in the year. Any discrepancy could easily have been detected during an adult's lifetime ...
789. The Gases Of Venus, Part 2 Mars Ch.9 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... The brilliant envelope of Venus is the remnant of its tail of the days when, three thousand years ago, it was a comet. The reflecting power (albedo) of Venus is greater than that of any other planet. It is 0.75 as compared with 0.22 for Mars, and 0.13 f or the moon.2 The reflecting capacity of Venus is not only much greater than that of desert sand, but is almost equal to that of newly fallen snow. On the basis of this research, I assume that Venus must be rich in petroleum gases. If and as long as Venus is too hot for the liquefaction of petroleum, the ...

... date of August 2, 792 A. D.) was the correct reading. Using the most generally accepted (Thompson's) correlation of the Mayan calendar with our own, this date places the event exactly at the time of an inferior conjunction of Venus. References to Venus in Paris Codex, page 5 Eclipse Symbols of the Sun and Moon (? ) and for Star Lounsbury also investigated other dates, which were possibly related to warfare at Bonampak and elsewhere. He concluded that there were instances where these inscriptions were somehow related to the position of Venus in the sky or at least made use of a word or idiom relating to warfare which included reference to Venus. For ...
