... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1998:1 (Sep 1998) Home | Issue Contents The Relativity Question by Ian McCausland (Available from the author at Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada M5S 1A4) To those unfamiliar with the story of Professor Herbert Dingle, he taught physics and relativity for many years before realising that Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity predicts that two clocks moving past each other will observe each other to be running slow. Dingle sought to obtain a resolution of this impossibility by writing to those well-known in the scientific world, asking them to identify which clock ran slow or to concede that the theory needed revision. Meeting with ...
872. A Concordance Of Disaster [Journals] [Kronos]
... Velikovsky be justified in supposing that I was speaking of a band of wild dogs who had entered my city and were devouring its inhabitants?" (4 ) For Asimov, it was of no consequence that five years prior to his untutored remarks, Egyptological scholarship had already vindicated Velikovsky's earlier conclusions regarding the chronological placement of the Papyrus and its physical cataclysmic content.(5 ) But for the benefit of those who may still harbor any doubt that the Papyrus lpuwer describes other than mere social calamity, we present- Concordance Key Exodus (EX)- References are from the King James Version. Papyrus Ipuwer (PI)- References are from A. H. Gardiner's translation of ...
873. The Mammoths' Demise - a correct solution requires more facts [Journals] [SIS Review]
... what they say in other terms; this makes the different aspect of the Heavens, and of its Poles. And I am apt to think, that those changes in the course of the Stars, which the Ancients sometimes speak of, and especially the Ægyptains, if they do not proceed from defects in their Calender, had no other physical account than this. When the Primæval Earth was made out of Chaos, its form and posture was such as, of course, brought on all those Scenes which Antiquity hath kept the remembrance of though now in another state of Nature they seem very strange; especially being disguis'd, as some of them are, by their odd manner ...

... be observed and measured. From the details, Knight and Lomas concluded that it was a sophisticated horizon declinometer for measuring the position of any bright object in the sky' and built a Uriel machine' on the site of a ruined stone circle in Yorkshire. They found it to be a highly accurate timing device' from which the lost physical principle behind the megalithic yard [was] rediscovered'. Referring to Richard Rudgley's Lost Civilizations of the Stone Age (Arrow Books, 1999) they mention the controversial linkage of Indo-European, Uralic, Altaic, Chukchi-Kamchatkan of Siberia and Eskimo-Aleut as one linguistic super-family, the Eurasiatic, and its even more controversial linkage to Dravidian, South Caucasian ...

... rejecting Einstein's admonition against Venus as agent in July 1946) and the gullibility of a whole lot of other well-educated people who really ought to know better than to accept the simplistic notion that the ancient gods were planets pure and simple and then jump to the conclusion that planets nearly collided in recent history, for which there is absolutely no credible physical evidence on Earth but much evidence (such as the ice cores just for starters) contradicting such a notion. Laurence Dixon responds My paper presented a calculation of the energy and angular momentum of a set of orbits that I claimed maintained constant angular momentum and energy while complying with Velikovsky' s orbits as presented in Worlds in Collision. ...

... own right. MSAG opens with stars and planets that orbit within the body of much larger, low density stars. A later chapter deduces a model for the magnetic fields of stars and planets, concluding that most extra-solar planets - and some black holes in supposedly binary systems - are illusions created by Zeeman Effect stars. Other chapters explain the physical and orbital characteristics of planets and moons; discuss galaxies, quasars, supernovae and planetary nebulae, and elucidate how they were formed; offer novel explanations for warped galactic discs, nascent solar systems, polar ring galaxies, and the structures of spiral galaxies; introduce a new redshift mechanism in which the wavelength of light lengthens as it moves ...

... 5: I | II | III | IIII | PART IV : Appendixes I | II | III | IV | Acknowledgements | Notes And References | CHAPTER 5: History And Chronology As has been explained in the Preface, the purpose of this book is to collect geological and geophysical evidence bearing on the Theory of Impact and to study the physical consequences of this theory in those fields. Environment is doubtless the dominant factor in the evolution of man, as it is, and has been, for animals and plants. We have already seen the results of changes in environment on living creatures other than man. The importance of the study of the consequences of cosmic catastrophism on the ...

... under National Medal of Science winner, Solomon Lefschetz. In the late Fifties he developed a new principle in celestial mechanics which not only gives a dynamical explanation for Bode's law but, as shown in 1972 by M. Ovenden, predicts current planetary distances with an average inaccuracy of less than one percent. Currently Dr. Bass is Professor of Physics and Astronomy, Brigham Young University. Eva Danelius (Dr. Rerum Politicarum, Univ. of Tuebingen), has studied Egyptian language at The Hebrew Univ. in Jerusalem and, in addition, has attended courses on Coptic and Semitic languages as well as the Bible and Biblical history at The Hebrew Univ. in Jerusalem and The Univ ...
880. Radioactivity/The Atom [Books]
... a clear idea of the composition and possible transformations of matter. To understand the dramatic events of the past, we must know what radiations are, how they are produced and the ravages they may cause. In the compass of this work, we can, of course, only consider the general basic principles of the atomic theory. Nuclear physics is a new, complicated science which has evolved with giant strides and is nevertheless only at its beginning. I The Atom 1. Before 1803 it was generally believed that the molecule was the smallest particle of an element or compound which could exist independently. In 1803 the English chemist John Dalton (1766-1844), in a famous paper ...
