... of all, but it is crushed in a lightning campaign by a conqueror coming from the west, who seizes Babylon-Alexander the Great. This scheme of things, in Heinsohn's view, entails a duplication, wherein the same historical events are recorded twice, one layer of the chronology based on archaeological, and the other on historical accounts. The physical remains of the Chaldeans became evidence of an ancient Sumerian civilization, while the history of the Chaldeans, in the absence of physical evidence, was composed from accounts by their Assyrian neighbors and by later Greek historians. The displacement of the Chaldeans necessitated the displacement of the Assyrians, with whom they closely interacted; thus the ancient Akkadian empire ...
602. Cosmic Heretics [Journals] [Aeon]
... than Deg, I think, although he denied it and had to make liberal use of copy-editors. For he explained his every step carefully and was rarely abstract or harsh, whereas Deg usually wrote condensely, abstractly, and stridently. Looking at V. in these first meetings in a more analytic way, Deg questioned whether a person so physically modelled to the ideal expectation of a heroic figure could nevertheless be a genius and not an actor, an honest victim and not a charlatan. Of what could V complain; he was famous; his books sold by the tens of thousands; his messages had carried throughout the English-speaking world, into several language-areas of the western world besides ...
603. THE VELIKOVSKY AFFAIR [Journals] [Aeon]
... simply could not happen. Yet these criticisms were not accompanied by proofs of the sort that one sees in the scientific literature, namely a statement of the laws and the boundary conditions, then a series of calculations, and finally the results: rather, Velikovsky's critics merely asserted that the chain of reasoning would be obvious to anyone conversant with physics; to answer Velikovsky's errors in detail would require the writing of the equivalent of several textbooks, and who would care to waste time in such an endeavor? For example, Velikovsky had written that the Sun had indeed stood still for Joshua, either because the Earth had stopped rotating around its axis or because that axis had tilted. ...
604. Response to Slabinski [Journals] [Aeon]
... turns out, that's right, but wrong! In this illustration, there is no binary relationship of Earth and Saturn, no orbit of Saturn by the Earth- just a synchronous movement of Earth and Saturn around the Sun, giving the *appearance* that the Earth is orbiting Saturn- and such a dynamic is not supported by Newtonian physics. To properly illustrate the mathematically-defined conditions I set forth in AEON, one must have the Earth-Saturn-Sun angle itself continually changing as the bodies move around the Sun, that angle shifting a full 360 in the course of one revolution. If the Earth were to start at the 12:00 position in relation to Saturn, it would therefore ...

607. Ladder to Heaven [Journals] [Aeon]
... It was along this rope that Sen and the other Chorote heroes, as birds, ascended to heaven. [19] In this Chorote tradition, as in the aforementioned Kwakiutl tale involving Mink, the arrow-chain is intimately related to a rope spanning heaven. This will prove to be an important clue when we attempt to visualize and reconstruct the physical structure of the ladder to heaven. In reality the two mythological structures- the chain of arrows and the rope to heaven- are inseparable and trace to the same basic celestial phenomenon. Thus it is that the sacred traditions of various cultures speak of "climbing" up a "rope of arrows." [20] A fascinating ...

609. Catastrophism and the Old Testament: The Mars-Earth Conflicts [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... orbit from its present one. Mars and Earth were locked into synchronous periods that resulted in their approaching each other in relatively close flybys twice every 108 years for several eons. Each of these flybys was accompanied by catastrophic occurrences on both planets. For evidence he cites historical literature, and he reexamines a massive amount of accumulated data from the physical sciences, from which he culls some significant material. Patten has collected around him a small "brain trust" 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 ...
610. Solar System Magnetic Fields-Further [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Earth and Uranus magnetic and spin poles are relatively skewed; Uranus quite severely. (d ) The electron flux between Io and Jupiter is obviously a local phenomenon, not directly related to Jupiter's orbit or to the Sun's influence. Jupiter's magnetic field is insufficient to provide the potential for the flux observed. The flux observed must therefore result from physical disturbance of Jupiter by Io (by way of comparison, it is rain that dampens the streets; wet streets are not the cause of rain!). The physical disturbance in question is theorized to produce both an ongoing potential and the attendant conductorless current. The appearance, then, is that satellite size and orbit can and do ...
