372. Prehistory and Earth Models [Books]
... far as the earth itself is concerned, how long it has existed in globular form is a matter completely outside the knowledge and possible objective discussions of the author. The earth may be as old as the universe itself, it may have formed from other bodies of the universe, it may simply have condensed from materials ejected in gaseous and plasma form from other bodies or it may have condensed from the materials of interstellar space. The reader is, therefore, asked simply to consider each specific problem of discussion as pertaining only to that feature of the earth's surface (lithosphere, atmosphere or hydrosphere) to which each such discussion applies. On the other hand a very interesting implication ...
373. Erratic Events in the Solar System [Journals] [SIS Review]
... 25th January 1986, has not been published. This letter also included a few minor corrections to my paper. 6. E. W. Crew: An electrical charging process applicable to solar conditions', The Observatory 101 (1981), pp.13-19 7. Astronomers generally refuse to accept the possibility of significant charge accumulation in the plasma of space and ignore the explanation based on the Townsend characteristics, that current does not increase in proportion to applied voltage, but is limited to a low value until the voltage is high enough to cause cascade ionisation. Even then, the current would be restricted by the limited availability of neutral and partly ionised material in space. A ...
374. Thoth Vol I, No. 9: March 31, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... By analogy with electrical discharges studied in the laboratory, we can predict certain conditions that should prevail in interplanetary space if the sun is indeed fueled electrically. For now, I would mention only this: The interplanetary medium near the earth seems to be characterized by approximately equal numbers of protons and electrons, which fact identifies it as a true plasma. Farther out- say, near the orbit of Jupiter- the protons should be traveling away from the sun with considerably increased velocities, and the electrons should be present in lesser numbers than the protons. Hopefully, the Grand Tour space probe of the outer planets, which is projected by NASA for the late 1970's, will be instrumented to ...

... surface markings as Phobos and Deimos. It is also apparent in recent times that the distinction between asteroids and comets is becoming blurred. Such discoveries accord with a paper I wrote for the SIS Review in 1987 which detailed seventeen puzzling features of chondritic meteorites and showed how they could all be explained simply in terms of an electric discharge in a plasma. A discharge of the magnitude required would be expected to occur during the close approach of planetary bodies and (I wrote - following work of Eric Crew) also give rise to comets and asteroids, the distinction initially being purely in their orbital characteristics. A portion of the asteroid belt is probably Martian and gives a clue to the ...

... victory, and to appear the more learned and strenuous upholders of a contrary opinion. Such persons should be avoided by all who have not a good breastplate of patience." After all, it really does not matter so much what Velikovsky's role is in the scientific revolution that goes now across all fields from astronomy with emphasis on charges, plasmas and fields, to zoology with its study of violence in man. But this symposium in the frame of the AAAS is, I hope, a retarded recognition that by name-calling instead of testing, by jest instead of reading and meditating, nothing is achieved. None of my critics can erase the magnetosphere, nobody can stop the noises ...
377. The Saturn Myth: A Tentative Physical Model [Journals] [Aeon]
... . After the events to be described below (section 10), the gas cloud was pushed into interstellar space by the built-up pressure of the solar wind, which had accumulated over millennia after initially (following the cloud-forming disruption of the supergiant mentioned in section 1), cooling and merging into the cloud. With restoration of the solar wind plasma as the ambient medium, Jupiter and Saturn lost their electrical charges by degrees, the discharge currents decreasing their magnetic fields, until the present planetary conditions were essentially reached in the present era. With the ambient pressure reduced to that of the solar wind, the atmospheres of the gas giants expanded and escaped as cometary comas and tails; ...

... heading Velikovsky Re-dissected'] he is quoted as saying that Velikovsky used a force unknown to science. Yet all Velikovsky's ideas were debated with major scientists and his friend Professor Einstein. All of them would have immediately centred on this issue. My understanding is that Velikovsky was anticipating the work of experts in the field of the electric universe and plasma technology by claiming that the major force acting on the cosmos was electricity, and it was the resultant electromagnetism that determined the orbits of planets, rounding them by minimising electrical interference when two bodies came into close proximity. The end result is that there is no obvious evidence of previous disturbance. A number of Velikovsky's papers, published on ...
380. "Just Plainly Wrong": A Critique of Peter Huber (Second Installment) [Journals] [Kronos]
... Pensée and in Analog, he, too, displayed an entirely negative orientation. The panelists proposed by Velikovsky were C. J. Ransom and myself. I was promptly rejected by the organizers on the grounds that my education was not in the hard sciences. That would not work for Ransom, who is a Ph.D . in plasma physics, so the organizers rejected him on the grounds that he was employed by a corporation rather than by a university. The organizers then appointed their own choices, and declared the panel closed. One of their choices was Huber. The rigid criteria that served to exclude strongly pro-Velikovsky panelists like Ransom and me suddenly and curiously became very ...
