In the 20th century this was challenged, mainly by atheists, ... digitally enhanced to make it redder, ' reports a late-January issue of Metro. NASA scientists said that the infra-red filters which are used on the rovers' cameras make the planet look more red, and that this was done only to enable geologists to distinguish the different rock types.

317. More on the Thermal Aspects of Venus [Journals] [Kronos]
... model's elegance and true importance: It is the first rigorous, scientifically respectable model of Venus' thermal history that ineluctably ties her present measured surface temperature to her having been red hot 3,500 years ago, thereby lending quantitative respectability to Worlds in Collision. Its immediate motivation was the slick, but erroneous, "cooling computation" presented ... ) The authors, after discussing some difficulties of Velikovsky's theory of the expulsion of Venus from Jupiter, proposed an alternative theory whereby "Venus, formerly an obscure and remote planet in the solar system, passes close to Jupiter and is deflected into an eccentric inner solar system orbit". My own theory was based upon a suggestion once made ...

... possibility not yet addressed in the model, which would be elaborated on in his next AEON article. Briefly, the radiation received by the Earth was heavily weighted towards the red and blue ends of the spectrum and the brightness was low even though the total radiant energy received was high. The result was that the spectrum was quite different, ... on the ionosphere, giving more visible effects. Some sort of configuration in the past may have been located at the North Pole.

Once this shish-kabob encountered the Sun's vicinity, the polar configuration would have been disrupted and the planets scattered into various orbital positions. Further, if indeed Saturn had once been a brown dwarf star, its size would have been considerably reduced in volume, perhaps to ...

... . The high redshift objects are associated with and ejected from low redshift active galaxies. Alignment is expected, even predicted - - no fudge factor involved. In _Seeing Red_, Arp shows that most quasars are distributed in a 20 degree cone from the spin axis of active galaxies. Galaxy clusters and individual galaxies follow a similar pattern ... current expansion of the Universe. AMY ACHESON RESPONDS: This calls to mind the many careful calculations made by hard- working astrologers to nail down the perfect epicycles of the planets. Their math was accurate, their tools were the best available for the time, their results were impeccable. But the assumption behind their theory- that the earth ...
