When it comes to progress, they seem to allow variances within a certain tolerance level, but reject out hand without scrutiny anything that is a major variance from their core philosophy and dogma. Pretty much how every science field has always been. Don't rock the boat too much or it is the tower of exile for you. The epitome of the flaws of peer review. It's not exclusive to astronomy either |

User ID: 19590118 United States 03/09/2022 08:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Pretty sure "Worlds in Collision" was on the best sellers list in it's day. Hardly "banned". Quoting: G. House It was a runaway international best seller at the point at which the publisher, McMillan, was forced to drop it under a threat of a total academic boycott of all of its textbooks. That was as close as they could legally come to banning a science book in the US in 1950.

You may find interesting the last two videos of the Thunderbolts project where the clash of cosmological views and the current crysis of cosmology is debated. I have been called “Velikosvkian cultist” just for having interest and curiosity about this cosmological view, many Astrophysicists dread the mere idea. All great truths begin as Blasphemies. G.B.S.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 82411416 Spain 03/09/2022 08:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm writing a paper that shows if you change one assumption mass is based on, most problems in physics have an opportunity to go away and MOND has a physical mechanism. The Sun and Earth are several orders of magnitude bigger in mass than we assume. No new physics. No dark matter. a0 in MOND is from the much larger gravitational well we are in than we assume. Our Sun is more likely to an average mass, at the moment we assume it has a tiny mass. I change that one assumption only. More Copernicum than current thinking! |

LEGION, FOR THERE ARE MANY User ID: 65287165 United States 03/09/2022 08:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Most readers are certainly aware of Immanuel Velikovsky, who started his professional life as psychiatrist and psychoanalyst around the time of Sigmund Freud, but then later applied his experience to history, especially in the field of of geology and astronomy. He arrived there after observing psychological markers in ancient written and mythological traditions where he detected hints for a recent catastrophic past, mankind was recovering from on the mental level, similar to an individual suffering with from traumatic amnesia. Quoting: McKracken Books to start with: * Earth in Upheaval (1955) * Worlds in Collision (1950) * Mankind in Amnesia (1982, his last monograph) From his purely analytical historian's point of view he saw hints for giant electrical discharges in space between the planets and predicted that Venus is a relatively young and hot planet. I mean with high surface temperature to melt lead. Only years later, this was confirmed by the first probes landing there. Astronomers reacted in panic to his first book publications and forced Macmillian, the largest academic publisher at that time, to retract it. It became a bestseller then at Doubleday 2 months later. Carl Sagan was his most prominent opponent and it peaked around 1974 when scholar astronomy introduced "modern" astronomy with black holes, dark matter and all the spooky stuff we are told today. Excellent, read them all years ago. LEGION |
