Astronotes Armagh Planetarium's Stellar Blog! ... Earth Satellites . ... According to Velikovsky, about 4000 years ago a giant volcano on Jupiter erupted and spewed a vast glob of debris into space, leaving the Great Red Spot behind as a permanent scar. The red hot lump ejected from Jupiter (referred to as a comet by Velikovsky) wandered into the inner Solar System, repeatedly crossing the Earth?s orbit and in fact often passing close to our helpless planet in the following millennia. ...
