Velikovsky's Theory Says Planet Venus Ejected As A Comet From Planet Jupiter
This interview revolves around Laird Scranton’s book called “The Velikovsky Heresies: Worlds in Collision and Ancient Catastrophes Revisited.”
Now apparently Venus is a comet which is certainly interesting. Would you share your perspective on this?
LS: Velikovsky proposes that Venus began its life as a comet that was ejected from Jupiter after Jupiter was impacted by a large astronomic body. Close examination of recent astronomic evidence relating Jupiter, Venus, the study of comets and the study of the formation of planets in exo-solar systems does not preclude the idea that a planet could be born of a gas giant, and might be seen to actually support the idea. Most astronomers now consider the atmosphere of Jupiter to be a pristine sample of the primordial solar cloud, and so the composition of its atmosphere could theoretically create a planet. The unexpectedly small size and high temperature of the core of Jupiter could reflect the possibility of an impact large enough to have ejected Venus.
The Galilean moons of Jupiter – three of which remain in resonance and one which has been disrupted in ways that are difficult to explain, might make sense if the disruption happened at the time Venus was theoretically ejected from Jupiter. There are aspects of the composition of Jupiter’s moon Io and the short-period comets whose orbits tend to gravitate to Jupiter that might be explained if we presume that they originated from Jupiter as a consequence of that event. Venus has a remnant ionotail that represents a kind of planetary counterpart to a comet’s tail. It behaves like a comet’s tail in that it is generated by the same process that is thought to create a comet’s tail, points away from the sun, and grows in strength as Venus approaches the sun. In my estimation, Velikovsky’s theory is attractive because – at each stage of the controversy – it potentially resolves a number of persistent astronomic mysteries, and does so with a single cause.

Velikovsky is merely “confirming” pre 6000 year old sumerian texts as I understand it.
Ive read all of his published and even non published works online. He had many ideas that have been verified through others works in our time. Not all of them, but much made a great deal of sense and I think one day he will be thought of as a mind way before his time.
Calling his work hearsay and giving it a religious bent is just because he used ancient works as guide post to look for data. Some works turned up in our bible much later then it was actually created and when looking at the ancient works and thinking about it makes it hard to disagree.
Many hate all of the ideas because it takes the god aspect out of many events and puts them int he hands of natural world events that are catastrophic in results.
Classic example is Pompey, when it exploded the story went down in history with god the one who did the act in retribution for mans so called sins. If people can not understand the event then they ascribe ideas to it. So many biblical events if looked at with out the aspect of god as the perpetrator but natural planetary disasters, even solar system changes and events were all attributed to god. Meteors, comets and even explosions were all seen as acts of god. Even now some think all of earths disasters are because god is angry. So I find it easy to believe people thousands of years ago with much less data could find themselves believing just that.
His work used ancient works from all over the globe and had correlations all over. He even thought our own historical timeline is way off and some events are added twice yet are just the same event from a different point of view.
