Reflection || The Vast Wide of Nothingness

in Reflections2 days ago (edited)

A little short story that makes sense to me about the impossible position that could be possible in the future, could you reflect on the line once more, I meant to think about how impossible things could later be seen as a placeholder for solutions, nothing bothering you much, I have heard and seen most out come of such models both in books and in reality, but I keep asking why the first doubt. It could be normal for the doubts settle in, but fighting hard in stopping the process could be devastating at times and not even in the good condition.

The story of EMMANUEL VELIKOVSKY, author of Worldsin Collision

Worlds in Collision is a book by Immanuel Velikovsky published in 1950. The book postulates that around the 15th century BC, the planet Venus was ejected from Jupiter as a comet or comet-like object and passed near Earth (an actual collision is not mentioned). The object allegedly changed Earth's orbit and axis, causing innumerable catastrophes that are mentioned in early mythologies and religions from around the world. The book has been heavily criticized as a work of pseudoscience and catastrophism, and many of its claims are completely rejected by the established scientific community as they are not supported by any available evidence.

He asserted in 1950 that global catastrophes during historical times were associated with electrical and magnetic fields from interplanetary space, the story behind his work acceptance was something else as he was immediately attacked as a crackpot, a hoaxer and worse. This was the worst moment for a researcher who believes in his work.
It is to note that the then Current scientific fad was that only gravity and solar radiation (mostly light and heat) streamed through the vast wide of "nothingness"" between the distant stars and planets.
For some years now that "knowledge" is known to have been wrong, as has most of the "accepted'" data with which they tried to vilify Velikovsky. None of his former detractors is known to have come forward to apologize, admit all the things he was right about, or to demand
an open, formal reevaluation of his theories and all his then "incredible" predictions (which proved true).
Ironically, many scientists are still haranguing anybody who'll listen about how Dr. Velikovsky's now proven facts contradict "accepted" scientific dogma! It's all but impossible for these scientists to recognize that when they passionately believe in an idea or practice that happens to
coincide with their own interests, that's the very time to question how fervently they still believe in the theory if it threatened their own interests.
It's very important we understand fact before creating controversial decisions that matters most in future relationships in study.
