... or of no period are dislodged from their paths to become short-period comets. What the origin of long-period comets is remains an unanswered question. The short-period comets apparently have some relation to the larger planets. About fifty comets move between the sun and the orbit of Jupiter; their periods are under nine years. Four comets reach the orbit of Saturn; two comets revolve inside the circle described by Uranus; and nine comets, with an average period of seventy-one years, move within the orbit of Neptune. These comprise the system of the short-period comets as it is known at present. To the last group belongs the Halley comet, which, among the comets of short periods, ...
512. Vox Popvli [Journals] [Aeon]
... and interest in, religious traditions and their perspectives has been growing in different ways. I've also watched David Talbott's Remembering the End of the World video, the story of which I enjoyed and found thought-provoking (although it left many questions open, even some very basic ones). I'm in no position to judge the physical implications of the Saturn scenario. I have no knowledge about current astrophysical models or the history behind current astrophysical beliefs. But I do sympathize with the need (also taken by Velikovsky) to place comparative historical evidence above astrophysical theories. In my view, no matter how the Saturn project might turn out, or how convincing the evidence will ultimately turn out ...

514. The Jupiter Order [Books] [de Grazia books]
... deities (Tresman and O'Gheoghan). The Amun temples in Egypt are liberally decorated with images of the ithyphallic god Min. Shiva (the Hindu equivalent of Jupiter) emasculated himself when the realized that his creative ability had left him. The analogy of this legend with the end of the visible electric arc is plain. The golden Age of Saturn contrasts both culturally and physically with the bright harsh Age of Jupiter. We must explain brighter skies, a worsened climate, a larger role for sporadic electrical phenomena, and certain striking astronomical movements of Jupiter's "Olympian family", The Earth emerged from the magnetic tube following the Saturnian Deluge (about 5,700 BP) with its ...
515. The Ark And Tent Of Meeting [Journals] [Aeon]
... eminent sense. A re-translation of the non-voweled pre-Masoretic text should clarify its meaning even more. On a totally different subject, this manner of decoding brought me to identify the Arcadians, who claimed that they lived before there was a moon, [12] as "people who were living at the time of Arka, i.e . Saturn." [13] However, Marinus van der Sluijs disagreed on linguistic grounds. [14] Appendix 2 See www.askelm.com especially the section "Major Keys in Discovering the Lost Temples of Jerusalem." This website was inaugurated by my long time, but now deceased, acquaintance, Dr Ernest Martin, scientist and ...
516. Sagan's Appendices: A Quick Appendectomy [Journals] [Kronos]
... Worlds in Collision. Although Velikovsky clearly and correctly suggested in 1950 that electromagnetic fields played a greater role in the Solar System than most scientists then thought, his model for orbital changes was fully compatible with those forces responsible for the behavior of comet Oterma III. "Before 1938 Oterma III had an orbit entirely between the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn. During a near approach to Jupiter in that year it changed its orbit so that it was entirely between Mars and Jupiter" (R . W. Bass, "Did Worlds Collide?" Pensée VIII, Summer, 1974, p. 15). Furthermore, according to Bass, "if one removed Venus from its present ...

... among the gods. A discriminating approach can eliminate much of the confusion and perhaps correct some of the mistaken identities. Page 89 On Testing the Polar Configuration A look at the methodology for verifying or refuting the theory of the polar configuration, with illustrations of the "predictive ability" of the model. By David Talbott, author of The Saturn Myth. Page 95 Aeon Volume I, Number 3 CONTRIBUTORS Roger Ashton is an interdisciplinary researcher and student of Sanskrit literature. Topics of his published articles range from classical Asian music to the butterflies of Delhi.

518. Is Gravity Necessary? (A Response to Charles Ginenthal's Electro-Gravitic Theory) [Journals] [Aeon]
... planets follow. Planetary masses are defined conventionally in terms of the motions observed for their satellites. The reader is cautioned that there is no test of such definitions. We can not solve any problems using them; in fact, the opposite is often true. When we define Saturn's mass by the motion of its moons we must conclude that Saturn is less dense than water. Cosmologically this creates a serious problem. What mix of solid materials is condensed elsewhere into such an "airy" arrangement? Certainly Saturn can be viewed as a body containing lots of hydrogen and helium, but these gases show only as traces in Saturn's spectrum. The same arguments hold for the Sun itself ...

... up the sky. The crowds gaze up in awe at the comet, and a courtier tells King Harold of this terrible omen. Below are seen the ghostly invasion ships which Harold now fears will follow. The tapestry was produced only decades after the event. Earlier, planet Mercury appears to have been a familiar figure of several pass-bys. Saturn, Jupiter and other heavenly bodies give the impression of having loomed large in the sky during their own great times. The moon has been a continuous interactor with Earth but for long has been in stable relationship; I would only mention here that the original great body to have encountered Earth, which I shall be calling "Uranus-Minor" ...
520. Further Comments on the Saturnian Configuration Theory (Forum) [Journals] [Aeon]
... planetary shish-kabob arrangement. As I recall, the only stable configuration of this arrangement that I could envision would have to have been in free space, undisturbed by any nearby stellar gravitational fields. 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 dimensions of a terrestrial planet or a smaller gas giant. This would have allowed Jupiter to be visible from behind the configuration. Also, an encounter with the Sun's influence may well have triggered a nova-like eruption on Saturn that ...
