... destruction experienced by those who lived at the time of Atreus and Thyestes, the tyrants of the Argivc plain. The hearts of men were oppressed with terror at the sight of the untimely sunset. "The shadows arise, though the night is not yet ready. No stars come out; the heavens gleam not with any fires: no moon dispels the darkness' heavy pall. . . . Trembling, trembling are our hearts, sore smit with fear, lest all things fall shattered in fatal ruin and once more gods and men be overwhelmed by formless chaos; lest the lands, the encircling sea, and the stars that wander in the spangled sky, nature blot out ...
792. The Birth of Planets [Journals] [SIS Review]
... also from the companion. On each occasion a smaller, denser body is ejected and gradually through time a planetary system is formed. Jupiter might be the first companion to our Sun; the lighter planets - Saturn, Neptune and Uranus -might be subsequent cores ejected by the Sun, and the heavier planets - Earth, Mars, Mercury, Moon and other satellites, and Venus - might be successive cores from Jupiter, and perhaps from Saturn. The order in which these form is not necessarily in the order of their size. From the data available it seems that Venus is the most recent addition to the family - ejected from Jupiter. This is our second fact. Ancient ...
793. Thoth [Journals] [Thoth]
... mind-stretching convergence of physics with the global testimony of ancient witnesses. It was the violent interplay of planets only a few thousand years ago which inspired ancient stories of cosmic upheaval. Planetary gods battled in the sky, pounding each other with lightning bolts. And now, this planetary drama can be verified in the dominant scarring patterns of planets and moons, showing unmistakable markers of electrical discharges. The evidence suggests that very recently on the geological time scale interplanetary lightning flew between these bodies when they moved on unstable orbits. But Thornhill does not stop with a visual display of unexplained crater and rille patterns; he gives us laboratory demonstrations. The conclusion? Electricity is the one force which ...
794. Notes on this issue: Pensee IVR X [Journals] [Pensee]
... ), defends his earlier criticism of those objections. In a sequel to his piece in the last issue of Pensee, Ralph E. Juergens (p . 27) presses his claim that interplanetary electric discharges explain some of the most unique lunar features- among them the gigantic crater Tycho, whose rays, extending more than half way around the Moon, have mystified scientists for decades. Incidentally, Juergens' proposal places him in a category defined (and ridiculed) by one lunar scientist as follows: "There must be something about the Moon which causes astronomers and others to suffer severe attacks of imagination." With this issue we introduce "Scientifically Speaking," a regular column ...

... gas of charged and neutral particles that exhibits complex collective behaviour, quite unlike a fluid) and that the universe is full of it, though astronomers don't normally take it into consideration, Thornhill showed us on film how an electric arc can create, in a piece of clay, precisely the sort of corkscrew cratering that we find on the Moon and Mars, and how electrical discharges carve riverbeds' like that of the Colorado at the Grand Canyon. We were also shown pictures of the Sun with various features like the sunspots which don't make sense under orthodox astrophysical laws that stipulate that the Sun is a dynamo. Whereas conventional astronomers are still searching for a way of unifying electricity ...
796. Fire and Ash [Books] [de Grazia books]
... the major investigator, detected three cultures and three natural destructions [25]. He allows Tiahuanacu a very old age, calling it the oldest known city in the world. Bellamy believed it to be a city that dwelt beneath a terrible sky, with first a satellite that closed into Earth and crashed later, and then a newly captured moon circling above [26]. I argue elsewhere for a single event, that the Moon erupted from the Pacific Basin to occasion the destruction of Tiahuanacu; at the same time it was elevated, but not to its present height. Another elevation might have followed in the second millennium B.C . whereupon the city was left in ...
797. Europa braided furrow [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... the attached image. So, it is of particular significance to see an apparently braided tripleband at this scale. It seems possible that one of the broader Birkeland currents may have imprinted its braided pattern on part of Europa's surface. The super-imposition of features and obvious signs of melting indicate a chaotic recent past. The fact that Europa, a moon less than 3/4 the mass of our Moon, has so much water ice is not well explained either by standard theories of formation of the solar system. ...
798. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... them the Valles Marineris. To the west are a chain of four volcanoes, Arsia Mons, Pavonis Mons, Ascraeus Mons and Ceraunius Tholus, in almost a perfect straight line. Continuing northwards from this chain are more Graben, long straight channels. The only first hand knowledge of tidal interaction we have is that between the Earth and the Moon. From our first hand research we now posit that the interior dense mass of the Moon is not central but deflected in the direction of the Earth. Many of the Moon quakes can best be explained by Earth-Moon tidal forces, rather than an active core. The Moon is asymmetrical topographically as well as structurally. As very few Mars ...
799. Velikovsky at Harvard [Journals] [Pensee]
... . I explained Venus' equal temperatures on its day and night sides by saying that Venus gives off heat. I claimed that Venus has a massive atmosphere, while Royal Astronomer Spencer Jones said it has less than the Earth. I claimed that Mars would be moon-like, its surface cracked. I claimed there would be remanent magnetism on the moon, resulting from the close approach of planetary bodies. I do not claim to be an astronomer. But I had a guiding idea that carried me into many different fields. Critics can call me all kinds of names, but they cannot make Venus cold." "We Are Alone" What terrible force gripped the Earth, Velikovsky ...
800. The Legends of the Jews: Volume I - Noah [Books]
... conditions under which mankind lived before the flood. They knew neither toil nor care, and as a consequence of their extraordinary prosperity they grew insolent. In their arrogance they rose up against God. A single sowing bore a harvest sufficient for the needs of forty years, and by means of magic arts they could compel the very sun and moon to stand ready to do their service.[15] The raising of children gave them no trouble. They were born after a few days' pregnancy, and immediately after birth they could walk and talk; they themselves aided the mother in severing the navel string. Not even demons could do them harm. Once a new-born babe ...
