... | Issue Contents Shapley's Scientific Record Immanuel Velikovsky Copyright 1983 by the Estate of Elisheva Velikovsky In 1920 a debate on "The Scale of the Universe" took place between two astronomers, the older and respected Heber D. Curtis, and the young and ambitious, but little known, Harlow Shapley.(1 ) Curtis argued that the many spirals and nebulae visible through telescopes are galaxies or universes outside the Milky Way, which with its billions of stars is but another nebula to a viewer from a distant galaxy. Shapley argued that the solar system is located in an off-center position in the Milky Way, but that the Milky Way is the only galaxy in the entire universe, ...
22. Halton Arp: A Modern-Day Galileo [Journals] [Aeon]
... their redshift. Arp confronts us with a simpler universe composed of interacting galactic families. How Big Is The Universe?The realization that our Milky Way Galaxy is one of billions of galaxies, and not the center of the universe, was a hard-won battle. It began in the 1750s, when Thomas Wright and Immanuel Kant suggested that the spiral nebulae might be "island universes," stellar systems like our Milky Way Galaxy [2 ] . But for more than a century and a half, most astronomers still believed that Wright and Kant were wrong. In the opening to her popular 1905 book, The System of the Stars, Agnes Clerke stated that "No competent thinker ...

24. The Evolution of the Cosmogonic Egg [Journals] [Aeon]
... the primeval days with which we are concerned, the planet Venus had originally appeared plumb in the center of the Saturnian orb. Superimposed on the planet Venus, as seen from Earth, was the smaller planet Mars. Now Talbott informs us that, during this period, Venus was actually "pulling atmosphere from Mars," which gas then spiraled around Venus, lending the latter a silvery "ovoid shape." (57) Thus "the image of Mars visually centered within the ovoid Venus does indeed look like an eye, but also a reddish sphere inside an egg." (58) This also led him to believe that it was Mars, as the warrior-hero, ...

27. The Mythical History of the Comet Venus (Part I) [Journals] [Aeon]
... the archaic "night." From the viewer's northern horizon a great column of light rose toward Saturn along the polar axis, looking very much like a pillar holding aloft both the planet and the celestial enclosure. The small orb at the apex of the column was the reddish planet Mars, the heaven-sustaining giant and warrior-hero of global myth. Spiralling out from the polar axis was a turquoise stream of gas or dust, terminating in the orb of Venus, remembered around the world as the mother goddess. Myth-making imagination perceived this projection as a revolving curl of "lifebreath," a circling beard or sidelock, or the termination of a rope or cord extending from its coil ( ...
28. The Celestial Ship of North Vol II [Books]
... by directing our minds backward into that far away past, dreamland of mythical fancy, that we understand that facts were woven into nature studies as fascinating myth and allegory, in the midst of which was placed the Spirit, which was worshipped, and not the outer sign. In the course of evolution, when the lowest level of the spiral had been reached, darkened days arrived, bearing close resemblance to those of our present dark Lunar period. We need to rejoice over this entrance of the new Era, the Aquarian, which is symbolically represented as the man with the Urn, from which rivers of Light are forcing their way through the night creating what those older peoples ...
