Velikovsky's Truth Solar System and Planetary Formation (1/2)
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
Immanuel Velikovsky in his 1950's book Worlds in Collision proposes that many myths and traditions of ancient peoples and cultures are based on actual events: worldwide global catastrophes of a celestial origin, which had a profound effect on the lives, beliefs and writings of early mankind. After reaching the number 1 spot in the best-sellers list, Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision was banned from a number of academic institutions, and creating an unprecedented scientific debacle that became known as The Velikovsky Affair. In 1956 Velikovsky wrote Earth in Upheaval to present conclusive geological evidence of terrestrial catastrophism. "I have excluded from [these pages] all references to ancient literature, traditions, and folklore; and this I have done with intent, so that careless critics cannot decry the entire work as "tales and legends". Stones and bones are the only witness." - Earth in Upheaval, Preface. Many scientists and historians have criticised Velikovsky's works over the years, unfortunately, many have done so inaccurately resulting in the public's misconception that Velikovsky was "completely proved wrong". Laird Scranton is an independent researcher of ancient cosmology and language. His studies in comparative cosmology have served help synchronize aspects of ancient African, Egyptian, Vedic, Chinese, Polynesian and other world cosmologies, and have led to an alternate approach to reading Egyptian hieroglyphic words. He is the author of The Velikovsky Heresies: Worlds in Collision and Ancient Catastrophes Revisited . Exploring the key points of Velikovsky’s theories, Laird Scranton presents evidence from recent space probe missions to show that Venus still exhibits comet-like properties, such as its atmospheric composition, and could be a young planet. Reviewing the widespread comet-like descriptions of Venus from 1500 BCE to 750 BCE as well as Velikovsky’s observation that no records of Venus exist prior to 1600 BCE, Scranton reveals recently translated ancient texts from China, Korea, and Japan that further uphold Velikovsky’s theories.

I'm sorry but the establishment's persecution of Velikovsky was much worse than the Catholic Church's persecution of Galileo. This is just the usual anti-Catholic hogwash. The persecution of Velikovsky's ideas, plus the suppression of the vast quantities of evidence pointing to cosmic catastrophes in the recent past, amounts to the greatest scientific suppression of all time.

Of the nine main planets existing today, we have strong evidence that
Mercury was a moon escaped from Venus, Mars a moon escaped from the
planet Nod, and Pluto and his moon Charon the escaped moons of Neptune.
A recently discovered asteroid belt to the confines of our solar system
suggests the existence of an old planet that some appointed Nibiru, Planet X . If we eliminate these, then perhaps the original solar system comprised of 12 planets arranged in 6 "twin" pairs. Such an arrangement would conform to the origin of all major planets and moons by the fission process. -
Verification of Velikovsky’s theory about vast flooding, waters higher than mountains, after earthquakes killing millions in Worlds in Collision (2009 reprint)
[Articles were in google news on 8/5/16]
From Andy Coghlan article in New Scientist (2016) (also in Scientific American):
Legend has it that a great flood engulfed China 4000 years ago. Lasting for more than 20 years, it was finally tamed by the heroic efforts of Emperor Yu, whose Xia dynasty marked the birth of Chinese civilisation and its transition into the Bronze Age.
“This was the first stage in the founding of Chinese civilisation,” says Wu Qinglong of Nanjing Normal University. “But no scientific evidence had been discovered until now.”
This lack of evidence for such a flood had prompted some to challenge the truth of the story.
But we now have the first compelling evidence that the flood did actually happen at the time and place chronicled in the legend.
In the Jishi Gorge, along the Yellow river, his team discovered rocks and sedimentary formations that could only have existed as a result of a cataclysmic flood.
They also found evidence of an earthquake and analysed the skeletons of three children (see picture below), which helped them recreate the timeline of what happened.
“The first thing was the earthquake, and this triggered a huge landslide that blocked the river,” says Darryl Granger of Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. The dammed water became a lake 200 metres deep.
“The lake built up behind and took six to nine months to fill up before the water overtopped, causing the dam to fail catastrophically,” he says.
This released a huge volume of water, estimated at between 12 and 17 cubic kilometres, two to three times as much as contained by Loch Ness in Scotland.
The floods engulfed Lajia, the archaeological site 25 kilometres downstream where the bodies of the three children killed by the earthquake months earlier lay buried, and where the world’s oldest noodles were found. -
Planet Nibiru's orbit hadnt arrived yet still way out in the deep, so this is Venus's origin story.
-
Nibiru could have hit Jupiter/Anshar and by doing so Lahammu was slung next to Apsu.
-
The so called Hyksos Expulsion was the Biblical Exodus.
-
Amazing as Velikovsky's work is why does't William Comyns Beaumont get any credit? He wrote these exact same theories decades before Velikovsky.
-
The book was defamed because nothing would kill an economy based on buying quicker than informing the populace they lived at the whim of an electrical universe.
-
I would suggest reading We Are Not Alone - Part 1 & 2 by Endall Beall. These books offer the most convincing information about planetary disruption and offworld intervention on this planet. They go beyond what Sitchin proposed and provide no shortage of textual evidence to support what is presented in the books. I can't recommend these book highly enough for those interested in the subject.

The great thing about time with continuing (& non-ideological) research is that greater examination of facts while uncovering new facts show greater truths. Yet, there is always room for debate. However, then as now, one of the most important elements in science to remove as much room for doubt is speculations. Many years ago I counted the "prognostications" of Velikovsky and found that he was correct on seventy-nine, that's right, 79 straight speculations. Not one of his speculations had been shown to be incorrect. There have been more of his speculations since then found to be correct (the "salty water" found on Mars for example). When Einstein learned Velikovsky's speculation of the radio noise from Jupiter was correct he publically assisted Velikovsky by asking the British Museum to date items from King Tut's tomb with C14 dating technology. Yet, it can be shown that Velikovsky was inaccurate in the dating of his chronology. C14 dating technology is wrong 100% of the time from studies in nearly one hundred labs. That's not even mentioning John Dayton who used forensic science which showed the Long Chronology (or the ideological Creationist Chronology...1700 years and still going strong!!!) was incorrect. I disagree that Mars had any role to play until the last and 6th archaeological destruction of the Middle East. [I have written my opinions in the 'Food for Thought' section at the end of my eBook novel THE ATLANTEAN'S KING'S QUEST.] The problem is that science is dominated by ideology. In the Long Chronology it occurs long before Petrie was on his 1st dig in Egypt and even before the lawyer Charles Lyell's PRINCIPLE'S OF GEOLOGY (which proposed Gradualism which became the ideology of the 19th century and still with us today). Bishop Ussher and Isaac Newton's reworking of the dogmatic Christian (Long) Chronology, developed by Julius Africanus, Eusebius and certainly other early church fathers, hardly made a dent into this long standing religious ideology.

If a large body smashed in to Jupiter, Jupiter would have lite up like a star for a while. Perhaps it was the ATON of the Pharaoh Akahnaton. A celestial body that appeared and lingered and then faded like he did.
-
haha his book is still in print probably sold enough to shut down all his dissenters
-
Scheiße! Truly amazing!
-
What I really want....is a animated graphical illustration of all of Velikovsky's theories.
-
no MATTER what area, being AHEAD if your time is usually a bad thing for the individual
-
Planets are not forming this way. The are neither aggregation of protoplanetary dust, nor are they ejected by gas giants. But his attempt to see history through the aspect of massive changes in the earths cosmic environment is correct for sure.
-
IMHO Planets are the remainder of stars. Jeffery Wolynski has a very good channel where he explains his theory. Check it out. To me it's the most logical theory that also overcomes all of the discrepancies that todays established science has with its hypotheses about planet forming and recent observations.

They say there is not enough time for Venus to settle into a steady orbit because they only consider stabilization due to gravitational effects and they don't take into account the suns ability to capture Venus electrically. Look into the cymatic effect around the sun and it could settle Venuses orbit in a short time.

Too bad that G Snoory is the interviewer...His technique is totally flaky and annoying to hear...
-
Fantastic eye opening gobsmacking logic.
