THE YOUTHFUL PLANET VENUS
excerpt:
When spacecraft took careful measurements of the temperature emitted from Venus it became clear that Venus was extremely hot; its surface temperature was hot enough to melt lead! In order to circumvent Velikovsky’s prediction the scientific establishment turned to a runaway greenhouse effect theory to provide this high surface temperature. The scientists have claimed again and again that the great heat emitted from Venus comes not from below its surface but from its atmosphere via a runaway greenhouse effect.
If this is so then the thermal balance of Venus should reflect the scientific establishment’s runaway greenhouse concept by exhibiting thermal balance. The amount of light entering Venus’ atmosphere and converted to heat emitted should exhibit a relationship of equality from the cloud tops to the surface.
If Velikovsky’s concept is correct and the planet itself is the source of all, or nearly all of Venus’ heat, the amount of heat in Venus’ atmosphere derived from sunlight should not exhibit equality with the amount of heat emitted by the planet. If the planet is the source of the heat there should be more heat emitted at every level of the atmosphere than sunlight provides; the planet should exhibit thermal imbalance. And furthermore, as one measures this relationship between sunlight absorbed and heat emitted, thermal imbalance should increase the closer one comes to the Venusian heat source, its surface...
