... planet, or the Golden Age', or the Age of Eternal Spring', as the myths also call it. Yet, as the millennia passed, another cosmic trouble-maker appeared. The planet Luna, which is about fifty times smaller and eighty times lighter than our Earth, responded to the resistance of the interplanetary medium with a greater spiral orbital diminution than our planet. Hence, in the course of time, it approached the Earth more and more till finally, after numerous unsuccessful conjunctions, the critical meeting between Luna and Earth occurred, and the small planet became the satellite of the larger one. The various technicalities of this capture' have been described in some detail ...
... Satellite 1. The Great Rift As we know, the former satellite did not attain stability when it became anchored' over Abyssiina Though the stationary period lasted for a considerable time it was actually only for a very short while that the satellite revolved round our Earth with the same speed that our planet rotated. Cosmic necessity caused the satellite to spiral ever closer, and hence to increase continuously its speed of revolution. For a considerable time the difference in speed between the satellite and the Earth was only very small, for the great ovoid projection of our planet was able to hold the satellite back. It remained firmly tied to the bollard which it had itself brought into existence. ...

274. Metamorphic Evolution [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... , which will only unite with Cytosine-C. To remember which bases join together, a mnemonic device helps: "A Two form Genetic Code." A joins to T, G joins to C. When we place these rungs in the ladder we get Figure 2. Figure 2 Now if we twist the ladder into the form of a spiral stair case, we obtain the double helix. (See Figure 3.) Figure 3 Thus, during cell division, all that need occur is that the ladder separate between the bases so that each new cell contains one side of the ladder and its half of the rungs or bases. Since Adenine will only rejoin with Thymine and ...
275. A Tale Of Two Venuses [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... our deeply ingrained way of thinking of matters along uniformitarian lines. Dwardu Cardona in 1996 nicely summarized this question as "The Most Telling Problem." "It has, of course, been pointed out, even by Velikovsky's own adherents, that while Venus' atmosphere might have been distended enough to form a coma, even taking on a spiral and other exotic shapes, the planet is too massive to have been able to `grow' a cometary tail. Thus, for instance, Chris Marx, wrote: "A comet will develop a tail because its mass is too small to retain gases and fine dust which, being repelled by solar radiation pressure, form the tail ...

... of mountain systems. But even during the most terrible earth quakes not all the dinosaurs could have died on all the continents at the same time. B.V . Bogoslovsky supposed a few years ago that the Solar System, moves, in its orbit around the center of our Galaxy, through regions traversed by streams of great energy (spiral branches), originating in the nucleus of the Galaxy. This must cause increases in radiation and in the speed of the Earth, the formation of mountains, and a huge production of radioactive ashes .. . A strong rise in radiation must have led to massive deaths of animals, and the fossilised bones could have preserved the radioactivity ...

... the Cenozoic Era, and is represented today solely by the cultivated Chinese ornamental plant Ginkgo biloba, the maidenhair tree. This, in turn, may be called tertiary extinction. A table of major extinctions during the 600,000,000 years of the Phanerozoic macro-era follows: PHANEROZOIC EXTINCTIONS* Era Period Epoch Taxon Rank Paleozoic Cambrian helicoplacoid (spiral echinoderms) class Ordovician protomedusan (earliest jelly-fish) class Silurian cystoid (spherical echinoderms) class Devonian graptolite (plankton) phylum Carboniferous mesosaurian (aquatic reptiles) order Permian pteridosperm (seed ferns) order Mesozoic Triassic therapsid (reptile-like mammals) order Jurassic pantothere (long-jawed mammals) order Cretaceous saurischian (largest dinosaurs) order Cenozoic Tertiary Paleocene Eocene ...
279. Variations on a Theme of Philolaos [Journals] [Kronos]
... law of planetary motion (that the square of the period is proportional to the cube of the semimajor axis). This is more a problem for us than for Philolaos, who may be presumed not to have been worried about Kepler's third law. (Perhaps we should not expect Kepler's third law to fit all orbital situations anyway: barred spiral galaxies seem to stand in clear violation of Kepler's third law!) But if we do assume that the ten moving bodies of the Philolaos system followed Keplerian orbits, then we run into a problem. For if the Counter-Earth was a planet-sized body on an independent but smaller orbit, its having the same period as Earth would be inconsistent ...
280. The Temple in Jerusalem (Ages in Chaos) [Velikovsky]
... are pictures of various precious objects, furnishings, vessels, and utensils of the Temple, of the palace, probably also of the shrines of foreign deities. Under each object a numerical symbol indicates how many of that kind were brought by the Egyptian king from Palestine: each stroke means one piece, each arch means ten pieces, each spiral one hundred pieces of the same thing. If Thutmose III had wanted to boast and to display all his spoils from the Temple and the Palace of Jerusalem by showing each object separately instead of using this number system, a wall a mile long would have been required and even that would not have sufficed. In the upper five rows ...
