The constellation is very prominent in the evening sky during the month of June. Then, holding the date c.2700 BC, we shifted to the latitude of Giza, and verified Robert's calculations for "The Orion Mystery". Another participant was Robert Bauval, whose book "The Orion Mystery". Actually, the 'echoes' were much too powerful to be simple reflections of signals from Earth. So if the horseshoe marking is modern, its 'prehistoric' alignment might be a curious coincidence. Robert Dawson Scott, 'Silent Power from a Time of the Ancients', The Daily Telegraph, 10th January 1997. 5. Duncan Lunan, "Man and the Stars", Souvenir Press 1974; US editions "Interstellar Contact", Henry Regnery Co., 1975, "The Mysterious Signals from Outer Space", Bantam, 1977. So we withheld publication, until April 1996, when a whole new situation developed. That one can't be verified optically in a planetarium with the same certainty, because the tilt of the Earth's axis to the equator is not constant, varying between 22 and 24 degrees.15 In 2840 BC it was near maximum, and has since declined by over half a degree. Epsilon Boötis A is an orange giant star, and the translation indicated that the probe makers had evolved on its second planet, emigrating later to the sixth when their sun began to expand. If that map meant anything, it would have to be as a time marker, not a navigational reference as I thought. If the spacecraft's attitude-sensing platform was fixed, built into its structure, it would still be correctly lined up with the sky once a day. Duncan Lunan, 'Space Probe from Epsilon Boötis?'. In later experiments the delay times began to vary upwards from three seconds, in increasingly complicated sequences, but with no variation in intensity - still indicating a single source amplifying and returning the pulses. Category A would be our objective, an artefact of unquestionably extraterrestrial origin. In fact, after Stonehenge I was built, around 2700 BC the site was abandoned for over 200 years while the same neolithic people built the much larger complex of Avebury and Silbury Hill, due north of Stonehenge itself. However, observations at closest approach suggested "strong, rapid brightness variations which can be interpreted as transient specular reflections from the surfaces of a rotating spacecraft". Izar lies at an approximate distance of 203 light years from Earth. The two stars are separated by around 2.852 seconds of an arc which, at a distance of 203 light-years, gives a projected separation of around 185 AU. I had studied megalithic astronomy under a leading expert, Prof. Archie Roy, and seen nothing unusual; there was no correlation even with Category D; and when I did the calculations, the markings Alan had found didn't seem to be galactic. 1(A)), and at only the second attempt I found what looked like a star map - in which it appeared that the probe had come from the double star Epsilon Boötis, in the constellation Boötes, the Herdsman (fig. It has an estimated 33 solar radii, or 3.300% the sun’s radius thus it is more than 33 times bigger than our sun. John A. Eddy, 'The Case of the Missing Sunspots', Scientific American, 236, 5, 80-88 & 92, May 1977; 'The Maunder Minimum', Science, 192, 4245, 1189-1202 (18th June, 1976.). 6. The Galactic Centre is 27,000 light-years from us and hidden behind dense clouds of absorbing dust in the inner regions of the Milky Way, so its location cannot be pinpointed visually, only with a radiotelescope. It’s still circumstantial, all of it, but it looks as if it may add up to something very significant. Sean O'Neill, 'Totem Poles Give Pointer to Siting of Stonehenge'. Monocular vs. Binoculars- Which One is Best for Stargazing. In any case, as the Lagrange points have no gravitational fields of their own, a cloud of charged particles would be scattered by their mutual electrostatic repulsion - unless there was a powerful magnetic or electrostatic field to hold them in place. But few archaeologists agree with Gerald S. Hawkins that the 'Station Stones' of Stonehenge I mark the extreme positions of the Moon's 18.6 year cycle; On the high-resolution photographs of Stonehenge Alan Evans pointed out a curious horseshoe-shaped marking on the northwest, cutting the bank and overlying Station Stone 93 (Fig. 3, is that there was something in the centre of Stonehenge I, which was gone by the building of Stonehenge II and III. The Epsilon Boötis star system as a whole has an estimated radial velocity of around -16.31 km / 10.1 mi per second. Take an interactive tour of the solar system, or browse the site to find fascinating information, facts, and data about our planets, the solar system, and beyond. The latter half of the 12th century AD featured the most violent solar activity since the Bronze Age, indicated by aurorae, carbon-14 ratios, tree-rings etc.24 And that previous peak was a triple one, between 2700 and 1800 BC, covering the building of Avebury, the Pyramids, Stonehenge II and Stonehenge III.

Its diameter was estimated at 9-19 metres, assuming that it was made of one of the more common asteroidal rocks. The Epsilon Boötis star system has an absolute magnitude of -1.61. Though young, much of its hydrogen supplies have been already burned out. The Bayer Classification was created by Johann Bayer in 1603. It was based on the mystery of long-delayed radio 'echoes' (LDEs), first reported in the 1920s. But also, we are in Boötes as viewed from Tau Ceti, one of the nearest stars like our Sun, and at relativistic speeds, Epsilon Boötis would be a prime navigational reference on the journey here.8 And there was an even stranger development. It is much younger than our sun. Epsilon Boötis actually lies to the northeast/left of the brightest star in the constellation, Arcturus. Archaeoastronomers are in some ways remarkably conservative. Robert Dawson Scott, 'Silent Power from a Time of the Ancients'. At the same time, more accurate 1920s records were located, and most of the 'star map' translations were ruled out - not the 'Epsilon Boötis' one, but it too had to be treated as suspect. Duncan Lunan, 'Solar Events at Sighthill'. Edwards, "The Pyramids of Egypt", Penguin, 1947. ', Analog XCII, 5, 66-84, January 1974. The star which had the same declination as the North Galactic Pole in 2840 BC, equal to the latitude of Stonehenge, was Epsilon Boötis itself. For example, on high-resolution photographs of Stonehenge, he had identified markings which seemed to indicate galactic alignments. And if the Step Pyramid was originally faced in that way, then as nearly as we can measure it, a perpendicular line up the north face met the prime meridian at the declination of the southern intercept between the galactic equator and the ecliptic, marked I. Archaeoastronomers are in some ways remarkably conservative.
