... even closer look by Mars Orbiter - look at the corkscrew central mound. There is a close-up .. . which is supposed to show ponding and dunes. It looks to me more like melted rock with furrows tending to follow the corkscrew motion of the arc that created the crater. The important thing to note about the close-ups of the Sun that are now pouring in, is the extent to which the filamentary structure of everything we see is carried on down to the limit of resolution. It occurs to me that the plasmoid that entwines the sun like a twisted rope must operate very closely to the photosphere to build those beautiful coronal loops and arches. That notion might account ...
282. Cometary Catastrophes and the Ideas of Immanuel Velikovsky [Journals] [SIS Review]
... good deal about these orbits and the way the stars interact with one another. And one of the most surprising things that they have had to come to terms with is the fact that the stars never bump into each other - encounters between stars are very rare events indeed. So, astronomers have got very used to the idea that the Sun and its family of planets never go near to anything - and this has undoubtedly encouraged the belief that the Solar System is completely free of any external influences. It is important to know that this belief underlies most professional astronomers'view of the Universe at present. Cosmic "icebergs" It is this view that is now under attack, and ...
283. Physics, Astronomy and Chronology [Articles]
... helped to organise the conference at Lethbridge University on the theme of "Velikovsky and Cultural Amnesia" and at this conference, Dr Velikovsky was awarded an honorary doctorate of the arts and sciences, which was a fairly historic occasion. He is also an associate editor and contributor to KRONOS where he has written some very stimulating articles on The Unstable Sun, and he is also a contributor to the SIS REVIEW. Today he will be applying his intellectual scissors to the accepted conventional dating methods- the title is "Physics, Astronomy and Chronology". Dr Earl Milton: I am pleased to be here again, if only for a brief visit to the island. The weather is ...
284. Thoth Vol I, No. 8: April 5, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... .. David Talbott RECONCILING CELESTIAL MECHANICS AND VELIKOVSKIANISM (Part 2)............................Ralph Juergens- Quote of the day: It seems astonishing that in the course of half a century of studies of the sun in context with the thermonuclear theory, very few professional astrophysicists have ever expressed the slightest discomfort over discrepancies between observation and theory, or even over the fact that an ad hoc extra theory has had to be devised to explain practically every individual feature of the solar atmosphere. Ralph Juergens- THE MYTH OLF THE UNIVERSAL MONARCH (2 ) ...
... large body one-fifth the size of Planet X based on comparison of masses. Sagan does not seem to understand the nature of the evidence he offers as refutation. In fact, this is exactly what the opponents of Galileo did when they argued with him about the validity of the Copernican theory which claimed that the Earth was in orbit around the sun. That is, they use the technique of adding unnecessary calculations as considerations for rejecting the heliocentric theory. Galileo in Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, 2 ed., (translated by Stillman Drake), (Berkeley, CA, 1967), p. 294 tells us Galileo said that, ". .. the ...
286. A Personal Report on, and Irreverent Look at, the World Conference 'Planetary Violence in Human History' Portland, Oregon, January 3-5, 1997 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . Sitchin showed slides of the Solar System; Halley's Comet; the distribution of landmass on Earth; Sumerian pictures showing they were first with many things; Zodiac signs named by them. He claimed that a cylinder seal showed the Asteroid Belt and they described all the planets including Neptune and Uranus. Their Solar System had 12 members: the Sun, Moon and ten planets. Earth, depicted with 7 dots, is considered 7th planet, so they counted from outside in. He uses this as evidence that it was settled by people coming in from outer space. He claims the Enuma Elish, the Sumerian creation epic, describes the system being invaded by a planet that collided ...
287. Velikovsky, Mars, and the Eighth Century B.C. Part Two [Journals] [Kronos]
... Home | Issue Contents Velikovsky, Mars, and the Eighth Century B.C . Part Two Sean Mewhinney 776 B.C . II. THE "SHIH CHING" ECLIPSE According to Velikovsky: "The text of the ancient Chinese book of Shiking refers to some celestial phenomenon in the days of the king Yen-Yang, in -776: the sun was obscured."(1 ) And what was the nature of this "celestial phenomenon"? Is the planet Mars mentioned in connection with it? Velikovsky did not cite the original work itself. He gave as his references two eighteenth century works by Jesuit scholars in China- the "Traité de l'astronomie chinoise" of Antoine Gaubil ...
288. Dynamic Evolution of a Collinear Planetary System [Journals] [Aeon]
... System was configured radical different from the way it is at present. In this earlier configuration, according to these theorists, the planets Saturn, Venus, Mars, and Earth were aligned in a collinear system, one "beneath" the other, with all of them sharing the same axis of rotation, even as they revolved around the Sun. At least according to Talbott, Jupiter was also a member of this alignment but, because it was "behind" Saturn, it was not visible from Earth. In a previous paper, [1 ] the equations defining the equilibrium configuration of the aligned system were considered and numerically solved. The equations define an underdetermined nonlinear homogenous ...
289. Chapter VIII: the Earliest Solar Shrines in Egypt [Books]
... . Since the temples and temple mounds at Abydos can be better made out than those at Heliopolis, I will take them first. The orientations given by different authors are so conflicting that no certainty can be claimed, but it is possible that at Abydos one of the mounds is not far from the amplitude shown in the tables for the sun in the Nile valley at sunset at the summer solstice. If this were so, the Egyptians who were employed in building the temple must have known exactly what they were going to do. At Heliopolis, as I have hinted, the matter is still less certain. Almost every trace of the temple has disappeared, but of remains ...
290. On Dragons and Red Dwarves [Journals] [Aeon]
... latter appearing under one of several different names: Yam, Rahab, Tehom, and Leviathan. (2 ) In the oldest form of the myth, the dragon typically appears as an obstructive force threatening the stability of the world and interfering with the process of Creation. The dragon's assault upon the heavenly kingdom results in an obscuration of the sun and/or imprisonment of the King of the Gods, among other things, and it is only through the intervention of the warrior-hero that the world is saved from the brink of destruction. Upon the dragon's defeat, the sun is restored to its proper place in heaven (or, alternatively, the King of the Gods is restored ...
