492. The Four-planet System, Part 1 Venus Ch.8 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... -3102, Venus alone among the visible planets is absent.(36) The Brahmans of the early period did not know the five-planet system,(37) and only in a later (" middle") period did the Brahmans speak of five planets. Babylonian astronomy, too, had a four-planet system. In ancient prayers the planets Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury are invoked; the planet Venus is missing; and one speaks of "the four-planet system of the ancient astronomers of Babylonia."(38) These four-planet systems and the inability of the ancient Hindus and Babylonians to see Venus in the sky, even though it is more conspicuous than the other planets ...
493. Mercury and the Tower of Babel [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... one and attributed Jupiter's glory to Mercury. A bolt of lightning sprang from Mercury and hit the Tower of Babel accompanied by an Earth shock, as happened with Venus some centuries later. Ginzberg states that half the Tower was consumed by fire and half swallowed by the Earth.(4 ) Monkeys and Apes Mars, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn were associated by ancient peoples with various birds and beasts: similarly with Mercury. The Gauls associated Mercury with the goat and the cock. Above all, Mercury was associated with monkeys or apes. Thoth of the Egyptians is depicted as an ape(5 ) and is associated with writing. Some sources identify Thoth with the Moon, ...
494. Comets in Perspective: What the Comet Halley probes tell us [Journals] [Horus]
... these visitors from the outer reaches of space. What are comets?Comets are small (dozens of kilometers in maximum dimension) objects that are absolutely out of equilibrium within the inner solar system. Their composition, predominated by volatiles, cannot exist in a stable state within the range of solar radiation fluxes present as far as the orbit of Saturn. When we see a comet from our Earth vantage point, we view it (with exceptions) while it is on a very small portion of its total orbit. The calculated orbits of comets show them to spend the major portion of their time beyond Saturn's orbit. The long tail and bright head we see in the more visible ...
495. A Hypothetical Ancient Telescope [Journals] [Horus]
... disk of that planet was full of rainbow chromatic images caused by the crude nature of the optical system. Nevertheless, out of the halo, were the two tiny dots of two Galilean moons of Jupiter next to the planet. The other two apparently did not at that time have an angular separation large enough to escape the imperfect image. Saturn was next but, in spite of the most careful painstaking adjustment, the rings of Saturn were beyond the capabilities of this combination of water-filled glass globes. Yet, a more complex optical system of water-filled globes might have resolved it. Additionally, stars were visible in this hypothetical ancient telescope which were not visible to the eye. On ...
496. New Scenarios for Solar System Evolution [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... for the March cycles, or "Passovers", was 108 years, always occurring at night, Hebrew time. The October catastrophic scenarios also were found to be in 108 year cycles. Our research indicates that every fifth cycle was a "mega-catastrophe" for both March and October. The October events featured Jupiter in Cancer, while simultaneously Saturn was in Capricorn, 180 opposite. The March mega-catastrophes featured the reverse geometry, Jupiter in Capricorn and Saturn in Cancer. One of the magacatastrophe can be associated to the Flood of Noah, that we estimate occurred as an October event in the year 2484 BC.

... (or filling the air) in the course of great discharges, as narrated in ancient sources (Old Testament and Homer among them), resulted from smashing two oxygen atoms into one atom of sulfur. I assumed that, on Jupiter and on Venus, sulfur must be present; on Jupiter because it acquired much of the water of Saturn after Saturn exploded, and in great thunderbolts [see Science News, Vol. 115, 3/17/79, p.172; Ibid., 5/5 /79, p. 294; Ibid., 5/12/79, p. 312; New Scientist, 4/5 /79, p ...

... the two faces of Janus symbolize the god's power over the two gates of the sky (" et ideo geminum, quasi utriusque januae coelestis potentem").- JNS; See Worlds in Collision, loc. cit. The complexity of the problem is further enlarged by the fact that Cardona has convincingly argued for the identification of Ra with Saturn in earlier times (see "Let There be Light", KRONOS III:3 , pp. 44 ff.; "Saturn As King", KRONOS IV:3 , pp. 91-93; so too, R.

... all being close to the ecliptic during the epoch of near collisions. This is a significant difference that works against any "very likely" participation by Planet X "in some of the events described by Velikovsky". Five, Vaughan allows that Planet X might have been perturbed "significantly on its way outward from perihelion" by Jupiter or Saturn. This is unlikely in the extreme because the inclination places Planet X beyond Jupiter's and Saturn's spheres of influence when it passes over their orbits. This, of course, assumes that the inclination existed before crossing the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn. The foregoing factors not only guarantee that "the probability that Planet X is actually on such ...
