Fuller published more than 30 books, inventing and popularizing terms such as " Spaceship Earth ", ephemeralization, and synergetic.

The contents are correspondingly varied: a confession of sin and a plea to God not to maintain his anger forever ( ch. 63: 7 – 64: 11 ); a poem on the theme that God has no need of a temple because Heaven is his throne and Earth his footstool ( Isaiah 66: 1 – 2 ); verses setting out conditions for admission to the community ; complaints of sin, incompetence and paganism ; and distinctions between the " righteous " and the " sinners ", foreshadowing the categories used in much later Judaism and early Christianity.

DeMille was, however, adept at directing " thousands of extras ", and many of his pictures included spectacular set pieces, such as the parting of the Red Sea in both versions of The Ten Commandments, the toppling of the pagan temple in Samson and Delilah, train wrecks in The Road to Yesterday, Union Pacific and The Greatest Show on Earth, and the destruction of a zeppelin in Madame Satan.

As Prithvi Mata, or " Mother Earth ", she contrasts with Dyaus Pita, " father sky ".

Traditionally called Rigil Kentaurus or Toliman, meaning " foot of the centaur ", the system has an overall magnitude of-0. 28 and is 4. 4 light-years from Earth.

* The Mi-go aliens in the Cthulhu Mythos of H. P. Lovecraft, first appearing in the story " The Whisperer in Darkness " ( 1931 ), can transport humans from Earth to Pluto ( and beyond ) and back again by removing the subject's brain and placing it into a " brain cylinder ", which can be attached to external devices to allow it to see, hear, and speak.

For instance, the name " Lord Sto Odin " in the story " Under Old Earth " is derived from the Russian words for " One hundred and one ", сто один.

* In the Stargate SG-1 fourth season episode " Scorched Earth ", a Human society known as the Enkarans are threatened on their new homeworld by an alien ship that is terraforming the planet to be suitable for the sulfur-based Gadmeer species.

Towards the end of the year, Bowie performed the song for Marc Bolan's television show Marc, and again two days later for Bing Crosby's televised Christmas special, when he joined Crosby in " Peace on Earth / Little Drummer Boy ", a version of " The Little Drummer Boy " with a new, contrapuntal verse.

The concluding episodes of the fourth season, " The Stolen Earth "/" Journey's End ", reveal that Davros was thought to have died during the first year of the Time War, when his command ship " flew into the jaws of the Nightmare Child " at the Gates of Elysium, despite the Doctor's failed efforts to save him.

As Charles shared his father's position on the power of the crown ( James had described kings as " little Gods on Earth ", chosen by God to rule in accordance with the doctrine of the " Divine Right of Kings "), the suspicions of the Parliamentarians had some justification.

Ephemeris time ( ET ), adopted as standard in 1952, was originally designed as an approach to a uniform time scale, to be freed from the effects of irregularity in the rotation of the earth, " for the convenience of astronomers and other scientists ", for example for use in ephemerides of the Sun ( as observed from the Earth ), the Moon, and the planets.

Major-General Thomas Harrison, who had commanded the troop which aided Oliver Cromwell in dissolving the Rump, suggested that there be a ruling body based upon the Old Testament Sanhedrin of 70 selected " Saints ", which was based on his beliefs, as a Fifth Monarchist, that the rule of the Saints would usher in the reign of Christ on Earth.

Since Fjorgyn is not only the name of a goddess, but the feminine byname for Earth, it is relatively safe to assume that " mær ", in this case, means " daughter ".

For example, in a work of science fiction, some astronaut could use the word, furusato, meaning " my hometown ", when referring to planet Earth.

George R. R. Martin set the Ice and Fire story in an alternative world of Earth or a " secondary world ", such as J. R. R. Tolkien pioneered with Middle-earth.

Shaver claimed that a superior pre-historic race had built a honeycomb of caves in the Earth, and that their degenerate descendants, known as " Dero ", live there still, using the fantastic machines abandoned by the ancient races to torment those of us living on the surface.

Before the revelation of Sheldon's identity, Tiptree was often referred to as an unusually macho male ( see, e. g., Robert Silverberg's commentaries ) as well as an unusually feminist science fiction writer ( for a male ) — particularly for " The Women Men Don't See ", a story of two women who go looking for aliens to escape from male-dominated society on Earth.

Her second collection, The Trouble with You Earth People ( Donning / Starblaze, 1980 ) contains " The Trouble with You Earth People ", " The Gambling Hell and the Sinful Girl ", " Syndrome Johnny ", " Trouble with Treaties " ( with Tom Condit ), " The Origin of the Species ", " Collision Orbit ", " The Fittest ", " These Truths ", " Contagion ", " Brain Wipe " and her Nebula Award-winning " The Missing Man ".

Recently however, funding of projects such as the Lincoln Near-Earth Asteroid Research and Near Earth Asteroid Tracking projects has meant that most comets are now discovered by automated systems, long before it is possible for amateurs to see them.

While the impacts took place on the side of Jupiter hidden from Earth, Galileo, then at a distance of 1. 6 AU from the planet, was able to see the impacts as they occurred.

Astronomers had expected to see the fireballs from the impacts, but did not have any idea in advance how visible the atmospheric effects of the impacts would be from Earth.

However, on scales comparable to the radius of the observable universe, we see systematic changes with distance from the Earth.

Each province contains a series of giant shield volcanoes that are similar to what we see on Earth and likely are the result of mantle hot spots.

Finally, at radio wavelengths longer than 10 meters or so ( about 30 MHz ), the air in the lower atmosphere remains transparent to radio, but plasma in certain layers of the ionosphere of upper Earth atmosphere begins to interact with radio waves ( see skywave ).

Ephemeris time was defined in principle by the orbital motion of the Earth around the Sun, ( but its practical implementation was usually achieved in another way, see below ).

These notions contrasted with Platonic notions of the human mind as an entity that pre-existed somewhere in the heavens, before being sent down to join a body on Earth ( see Plato's Phaedo and Apology, as well as others ).

This may be a reference to Enki's hieros gamos or sacred marriage with Ki / Ninhursag ( the Earth ) ( see below ).

For example, an observer will see a ball fall the same way in a rocket ( left ) as it does on Earth ( right ), provided that the acceleration of the rocket provides the same relative force.

When the citizens see the meaningless battle, they put aside their differences, whether they are from the colonies or from Earth, and form what becomes the Earth Sphere Unified Nation.

The daily rotation of the Earth is somewhat irregular ( see ΔT ) and is slowing down slightly ; atomic clocks constitute a much more stable timebase.

Some writers have proposed building megastructures that have some similarities to a hollow Earth – see Dyson sphere, Globus Cassus.

Christmas Island is in the world's farthest forward time zone, UTC + 14, and Christmas Island is one of the first inhabited places on Earth to experience the New Year each year ( see also Caroline Atoll, Kiribati ).

is slightly unstable ( see stability, above ) because drifting towards the Moon or Earth increases one gravitational attraction while decreasing the other, causing more drift.

The free element ( metal ) is not found naturally on Earth, as it is highly reactive ( though once produced, it is coated in a thin layer of oxide ( see passivation ), which partly masks this reactivity ).

Cartography or map-making is the study and practice of crafting representations of the Earth upon a flat surface ( see History of cartography ), and one who makes maps is called a cartographer.

Short story in which archaeologists from Earth ( returning to the Mars of their distant ancestors ; see Genesis above, although the stories are not explicitly related save through the author's Paratime stories ), excavating the remains of a humanoid Martian civilization find an entire library they at first cannot read, but then come upon a Rosetta Stone of sorts, giving the story its title.

That happens in magnetic storms, when following an eruption on the sun ( a " coronal mass ejection " or a " solar flare "— details are still debated, see MSPF ) a fast-moving plasma cloud hits the Earth.

The Omphalos hypothesis was named after the title of an 1857 book, Omphalos by Philip Henry Gosse, in which Gosse argued that in order for the world to be " functional ", God must have created the Earth with mountains and canyons, trees with growth rings, Adam and Eve with hair, fingernails, and navels ( omphalos is Greek for " navel "), and that therefore no evidence that we can see of the presumed age of the earth and universe can be taken as reliable.
