Zetetic Astronomy: Earth Not a Globe

Parallax, Samuel Birley Rowbotham

Summary

"Zetetic Astronomy: Earth Not a Globe", a book written by Samuel Birley Rowbotham, book presents an alternative perspective on the shape of the Earth, challenging the widely accepted belief in a spherical Earth. Rowbotham argues that the Earth is not a globe but a flat, stationary plane. He presents his arguments based on observations, experiments, and what he calls "zetetic" (meaning "inquiring" or "investigative") reasoning rather than relying on traditional scientific methods. The book challenges the principles of astronomy and asserts that the Earth's surface is flat, extending indefinitely. Throughout the book, Rowbotham addresses various topics related to astronomy, physics, and the nature of the Earth. He explores concepts such as gravity, the curvature of the Earth, the behavior of bodies of water, and the phenomena of tides and eclipses, offering alternative explanations that contradict the prevailing scientific consensus.

In Days Gone By

Mike Blake

"This Poem 'In Days Gone By - Newbury'. Part 3 of the series Nature: Natural Healing.A time when most of the UK Countryside was criss-crossed by small roads and slow moving cars.And the pace was slower and more durable for nature.A delicate balance had been formed between the new motor car and the hedgerows and byways that struck a chord of harmony between each other. Broken now, with too many Motorways and not enough cycle lanes - leaving nature, floundering.I the Author have been writing Poetry for around 20 years. Most of it has been published on Amazon. I write on varied topics which resonate with what I'm thinking or studying at that time.Credit for the artwork on this piece, goes to Mike Miko for his interpretation of this poem into pictorial Art form." His skill in depicting the scenes of the Newbury bypass running through the heart of a forest, with a ghostly image of Swampies son, was truly remarkable.
