... , the velocity components of the smaller ones must already have been made synchronous to the components of the gravitational perturbations. There is no other cogent answer! A SOLAR VIEW The pulse period "in gravitational units of time", a time period for energy to traverse through the three stages of energy, can be calculated mathematically as well as physically observed on the solar surface. The period T* opens a viewing window to the incoming shock front of Compton recoil and is observed as the aged magnetic wave enters the solar plasma. If incoming waves are to penetrate a conductive surface effectively the characteristics of the spin in the incoming photo must match the surface motion exactly. This requirement ...
762. Nemesis for Evolutionary Gradualism? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... simulations, indicting a confidence level of 99.7 percent. Raup and Sepkoski concluded, If the periodicity of extinctions in the geologic past can be demonstrated, the implications are broad and fundamental. A first question is whether we are seeing the effects of a purely biological phenomenon or whether periodic extinction results from recurrent events or cycles in the physical environment. If the forcing agent is in the physical environment, does this reflect an earthbound process or something in space? If the latter, are the extraterrestrial influences solar, solar system, or galactic? Although none of these alternatives can be ruled out now, we favor extraterrestrial causes for the reason that purely biological or earthbound physical ...
763. Afterword [Books]
... the interconnection between fields, each field needs to be discussed within its own frame of reference. In defense of my theory I have had many confrontations. in particular, I remember one confrontation at Brown University, some seven years ago, when I was pitted against four specialists: one in Babylonian mathematics, one in astronomy, one in physics, and one in geology. I stood alone. At the AAAS meeting in San Francisco just two months ago I participated in a similar debate which lasted seven hours. The audience showed by their standing ovation that they took my side, the side of the heretic. I had shown that the very same problems which plagued scientists in ...
764. Letters. C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... coming from Jupiter, I doubt this would have hastened the demise' of Einstein! He would have realised that this was caused by thunderstorm activity of far greater magnitude than on Earth, owing mainly to the huge extent of Jupiter's atmosphere. Velikovsky was right about many things and Earth in Upheaval is a splendid book but I would back Einstein's physics against that of Velikovsky any day. Perhaps the solution to Einstein's alleged comment about a change in the Earth's inclination destroying the Earth's crust is that the crust as a whole including the equatorial bulge would have slid over the magma of the interior and conditions would have slowly stabilised to a new inclination without causing serious disturbances, even if there ...
765. Book Reviews [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... beauty; evil seems unimportant or non-existent. Matrix No.2 , entitled "Antagonism with the Mother": (contractions in a closed uterine system). It is characterised first by disturbing chemical influences, later by periodic uterine contractions. These contractions encroach on the foetus, but the cervix is closed. Hence it is accompanied by intense physical discomfort and, he finds, incredible psychological tortures. Patients describe themselves as feeling the situation is unbearable and yet hopeless: "no exit"- "hell". It is associated with visions of wars, epidemics and natural catastrophes. The foetus struggles desperately to escape and save its life. In the initial stages there is intense ...
766. The Outlook of Scientists [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Table of Elements). Most laws of the individual fields of science are not tied together logically, empirically, or quantitatively. Men know them as impressive beings rising separately out of the formless stream of existence. The situation is worse when the various fields are considered. As they are written, understood, and applied, the statements of physics are as far from biology as those of anthropology. Yet, "in theory and essence," they might be capable of a common formulation even while carrying on their former interdisciplinary functions. If by systematic science is meant an interlocking set of propositions, framed in the same symbol-system and moving up and down the full range of generality ...
767. Sagan's Pseudo-sagacity: Style As A Reflection Of Character (Or The Lack Thereof) [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... a super-dense piece of matter. Can it be visible from the inside? Palpable means "capable of being felt by the fingers." Have you ever felt gravity with your fingers? The term occurs often in medicine, as in a "palpable breast tumor." By extension it sometimes refers to an emotion that can be sensed almost physically, such as "a palpable fear." If Dr. Sagan had written, "Even though a black hole is invisible, its gravity can be detected," I would have had no complaints. According to Dr. Sagan, "For neutron stars, the pressure of the neutrons staves Off gravity." To stave off ...
768. Planets in the Bible: I -- The Cosmology of Job [Journals] [SIS Review]
... has pointed out (10) that the Hebrew term hokhmah, translated as "wisdom", encompasses not only moral wisdom as we know it, but also the knowledge of the workings of nature. It is so taken in Proverbs 8, where hokhmah is both moral (v . 20) and also the principle according to which the physical creation was established (vv.24-30). The wisdom of Solomon - accounted author of the Proverbs - similarly embraced natural science (vv. 30-34). This aspect of Solomon's greatness was much amplified in both Midrashic and Masonic legend (11). Such an identification of "wisdom" with the physical creation, of the moral ...
769. Facing Many Problems, Part 2 Epilogue (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... of certain stars- cannot be correct because the order of nature has changed since ancient times. But great upheavals of cosmic character may serve as points of departure for writing a revised history o f the nations. Such a synchronization of the histories of the ancient world is attempted in Ages in Chaos. Its starting point is the simultaneity of physical catastrophes in the countries of the ancient East and the comparison of records referring to such catastrophes among the peoples of antiquity. For the rest, I have proceeded by collating political records of archeological material of the ancient East covering a period of over a thousand years, from the end of the Middle Kingdom in Egypt to the time of ...
770. The 108-year Cyclicism of the Ancient Catastrophes [Journals] [Aeon]
... There were no mysterious angels, elves, leprechauns or sprites that might provide either a boost or a brake on the energies of the planets, and this included both revolving energies (in orbit) and rotational energies (in spin.) Hatch, as it so happened, had a solid background in the Old Testament as well as in physics and more specifically in orbital mechanics. The following are the series of steps whereby we have come to our understanding, and hence to our model, of Mars-Earth planetary catastrophism. Throughout this process, which commenced in 1968, there have been a number of important breakthroughs, and these will be discussed below. We have taken some 26 ...
