... by composing cryptograms, not an uncommon procedure in those days: statements written in Latin were deliberately reduced to the letters of which the sentences were composed, or, if the author of the cryptogram so wished, the letters were re-assembled to make a different sentence. The second way was chosen by Galileo when he thought he had discovered that Saturn is "a triple" planet, having observed appendices on both sides of Saturn, but not having discerned that they were but a ring around the planet, a discovery reserved for Christian Huygens in 1659, half a century later. Kepler tried to read the cryptogram of letters recombined into a non-revealing sentence, but did not succeed. ...
252. The Crescent II [Books]
... celestial ship. In the oldest ritual the ship appears as a crescent revolving around the circle of the great god's dwelling, while the god himself remains stationary. The ship's "mooring post" (and, by extension, its "mast") is the cosmic mountain. One of Saturn's most extraordinary possessions is the ark of heaven. Saturn is "literally represented as sailing over the ocean in a ship," remarks Faber. (1 ) Ovid tells us that because the planet-god traversed the entire sphere of the "earth" in his primordial voyage, his special token was a ship, and this is the ship which appears on the reverse of coins stamped with the ...
253. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Workshop Vol 4 No 3 (Dec 1981) Home | Issue Contents Monitor "Fridge Power" on Saturn source: New Scientist 3/9 /81, p. 596 Saturn continues to pose new problems for the pundits. Finnish astronomers J. Lukkari and J. G. Piironen of the University of Oulu, measuring photographic plates taken over a 3-year period, have confirmed that Saturn's rings are asymmetrical in brightness. According to the New Scientist, astronomers have reported oddities in the symmetry of the rings since the start of the 18th century. Meanwhile S. Franck of the East German Central Earth Physics Institute has come up with a new explanation for the ...
254. Problems With The Morning Star [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... the terror which led to the practice of human sacrifice (which Velikovsky showed was a consequence of the Venus catastrophes), Quetzalcoatl was opposed to blood sacrifice and demanded only the sacrifice of fruit and flowers [16] or snakes, birds and butterflies[17]. It would appear that Quetzalcoatl was originally the Mesoamerican equivalent of Osiris or Saturn. In his later role as Morning Star human sacrifice appears to have taken place among the Toltecs only with the sacrifice of one noble at times of the invisibility of Venus, in order to make the Morning Star appear again[18]. Cochrane and Talbott argue that the Mesoamerican mythology and symbolism of Quetzalcoatl/Feathered Serpent indicate a ...
255. Catastrophism and the Old Testament: The Mars-Earth Conflicts by Donald Wesley Patten [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Seattle, Washington 98125, USA, 1988) According to Catastrophism and the Old Testament (COT) the Solar System was formed between 100,000 and 500,000 years ago' when the Sun overran and attracted a collection of at least thirty relatively small planets revolving round each other in a complex binary system. Neptune, Uranus, Saturn and Jupiter were sequentially drawn into essentially the orbits they now occupy. The outer satellites of some or all of these bodies were stripped off by the Sun's gravity: These included Mercury, Venus, the Earth-Moon system, Mars, and Astra .. In time Astra approached too close to Mars and fragmented, leaving one side of Mars ...
256. Chiron: Giant Comet, Agent of Catastrophe? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1991 (Vol XIII) Home | Issue Contents Chiron: Giant Comet, Agent of Catastrophe?sources: New Scientist 25.8 .90, pp. 48-51 Nature 348 (1990), pp. 132-136 The object Chiron was first recognised in 1977. It has an elongated orbit between those of Saturn and Uranus, actually intersecting that of Saturn, and for some years there was debate as to whether Chiron was an asteroid or a comet. If it were an asteroid it would be the farthest out of those currently known and much more extreme even than asteroid Hidalgo, whose orbit lies between the asteroid belt and Saturn. How had ...
257. Remarks on TV Series To Feature Planetary Catastrophe [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... 1997 NEW WEEKLY CABLE SERIES TO FEATURE PLANETARY CATASTROPHE .. .BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP. Dear Friend, Yes, we are excited about a new opportunity to tell a story of planets and catastrophe, but we need your help in more ways than one. Again and again we've heard from people asking for a full overview of the Saturn theory, a story whose breadth and sweeping implications far exceed the sum of published articles. This requested overview is exactly what we intend to deliver, but with a surprise. It was only in the past year that the work of David Talbott, author of The Saturn Myth, converged with the work of the Australian physicist Wallace Thornhill ...

But all I am really saying is that there was a mythmaking epoch of human history. It had a beginning and an end. Its focus was an unstable congregation of planets close to the earth, moving through phases of beauty, awe, and terror. The ...
260. When Earth Was Not Yet Created: An Account of Sumerian Cosmogony [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... able to outline events that have taken place billions of years ago. The writer, in a recently published book6 has put together evidence from Sumerian, Akkadian, and Biblical (O .T .) scriptures which, he believes, does indicate the Sumerians had access to advanced scientific knowledge in astronomy, including a familiarity with the planets beyond Saturn, and the heliocentric nature of our solar system. Pertinent to these conclusions is the depiction of a solar system on a cylinder seal, VA.243 (Fig. 1). It will be shown that Enuma elish is based on plausible scientific theories concerning the process by which our solar system has taken shape, including a cataclysmic ...
