... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History XIII:2 (July 1991) Home | Issue Contents The Day the Sun Stood still Robert H. Chappell, Jr.Stones falling from heaven.., a disturbance in the motions of the Sun and Moon... devastating tsunamis... plagues and pestilences of unknown origin.., thunder and lighting from a cloudless sky... earthquakes of incalculable intensity... all these phenomena were crammed into a single day! It is no wonder that the story of "the day the Sun stood still" is so widely disbelieved! Living in a uniformitarian's paradise, the present age is happily oblivious to such unprecedented ...
... "that in both calculations, an approach to within N Earth radii has N2 times the probability of a physical collision. Thus, for N=10, a miss of 63,000 km, the above values of T must be reduced by two orders of magnitude. This is about one sixth the distance between the Earth and the Moon." 2 We have shown that Shulamith Kogan used Sagan's physical model and mathematical calculation for N = 100 Earth radii. What she discovered was that the Earth and comet-Venus would collide more than once for each close approach on their orbits. At N = 1,000, using Sagan's equations, the Earth and Venus collide over 10 ...
863. The Cairns Of Kintraw [Journals] [Kronos]
... does not point to Dubh Beinn. To give Thom the benefit of the doubt, we assume that either this diagram is badly drawn or a mistake in its layout has been made. We say this because beneath the horizon profile given for this alignment (Fig. 3- but 4.4 in Thom's work) appear the words "Moon setting on Jura Hills .. . as seen from the cairn".(14) This, needless to say, would be impossible if the line passed through the fallen stone S2 as shown in the diagram. But even so, the path of the Moon does not follow the slope of Dubh Beinn (Fig. 3) ...
864. Indra and Brhaspati (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... planet Jupiter, as well as the preceptor (purohita) of the gods. At any rate, none of the several reference works available to me offers such an assertion. They usually do offer three separate meanings of the word "Brhaspati": 1) Name of the preceptor of the gods (whose wife Tara was abducted by the Moon); 2) the planet Jupiter; and 3) the name of the author of a certain Sanskrit Smrti- thus, e.g ., in Apte's Sanskrit-English dictionary.(7 ) More interestingly, perhaps: Just as "Jeudi = Jovis Dies (i .e ., Day of Jupiter) = Thor's Day = ...
865. A Revised Astronomical Chronology for Egypt [Articles]
... it would be completely cyclic reasoning, but is there any other reason for thinking that this papyrus goes back to that time? The contents of it were the conversion table, and the point of doing it was that it was a manual of Omen Astrology. That is it would say things like "if you get an eclipse of the Moon in the month . . . , then this will mean famine in the land of Syria" or whatever. Omens linked to nations, this is a type of astrology that could be described as Neo-Babylonian, it dates from around about this period (points to figure) or even before in Babylon. It was now being applied to ...
866. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... contain methane, which does not survive more than 10,000 years, so this must be continually replenished, but there is no sign of the oily seas and lakes that had been expected to be present in order to explain this. It is already being referred to as a bizarre' world, but, then, which planet or moon has ever turned out to be what they expected? More Mysteries of Mars (New Scientist, 20.11.04, p. 8 and 29.5 .04, p. 13; Scientific American, May 2004, p. 21; Science Frontiers, No. 157, Jan – Feb 2005, p. 2 ...
867. Evolution from Space [Articles]
... one accepts the evidence as presented by Professor Pflug. This moment of time when things like this appeared has been dated by the usual techniques for dating rocks at 3830 million years and I think it's a remarkable fact that this moment in time is also the first moment when it was possible for life to survive on the Earth, when the Moon stopped being violently hit by meteorites, we know that if we look at the record of lunar rocks, right up to 3800 or so million years before the present time the Moon was really intensely bombarded with meteorites and since the Earth and the Moon are essentially one system, one could assume that the Earth was also suffering very severe ...
868. Part IV: Conclusions [Ragnarok] [Books]
... and in the part assigned to him in the solemn mysteries of religion. In these we find him portrayed as the patron and founder of the Meda worship, the inventor of picture writing, the father and guardian of their nation, the ruler of the winds, even the maker and preserver of the world and creator of the sun and moon. From a grain of sand brought from the bottom of the primeval ocean, he fashioned the habitable land, and set it floating on the waters till it grew to such a size that a strong young wolf, running constantly, died of old age ere he reached its limits. . . . He was the founder of the ...
869. The Scars of Mars - I [Journals] [Kronos]
... range of 3.0 and significantly less than Mars' density. Figure 2. Distances of Astra and Mars at Moment of Astra's Fragmentation Mars' Old Radius 2099 miles Astra's Estimated Radius 625 miles We are suggesting Astra's diameter at 1250 miles or slightly larger. This compares to the diameters of other solar system bodies as follows: 1. Moon (Earth) 2160 miles 2. Io (Jupiter) 2257 3. Europa (Jupiter) 1942 4. Pluto 1500 5. Rhea (Saturn) 950 6. Iapetus (Saturn) 895 7. Titania (Uranus) 800 8. Oberon (Uranus) 715 9. Charon (Pluto) 500 Thus it is proposed that ...
... and yet it was quite a possible contingency. THE METEOR OF SEPTEMBER 12TH, 1923, FALLING TANGENTIALLY. THIS PHOTOGRAPH ILLUSTRATES THE RAPID MOVEMENT OF A METEORIC BODY. 132.Biela's comet is not the only lost one by any manner of means. Lexell's, 1770, with a nucleus said to have been five times the size of the moon, was supposed to have had a period of five and a half years, but it has never again been seen. Another missing member is Brorsen's comet of 1846, which has failed to appear at its allotted times. Tempel's comet of 1866 belongs to a class which seems to be related to the Leonids of every thirty-three and one-third ...
