Physicist
Interests: Electric Universe, Plasma
Dr. C. J. Ransom was an associate editor and contributor of Pensee and Kronos, a contributor to the SIS journals Chronology and Catastrophism Review, INFO and Velikovsky Reconsidered, and author of the book, The Age of Velikovsky. He was also the Executive Director of the US tax exempt organization Cosmos and Chronos.
He received his Ph.D. in plasma physics at The University of Texas in Austin, Texas, and has conducted research and technical computing in the aerospace industry for over 30 years. His research took him to General Dynamics Corp., Convair Aerospace
Division, Fort Worth, Texas, Vemasat Research Institute, and other research facilities. His diverse background includes plasma physics, aerospace applications, computer aided analysis, technical computing management, business process re-engineering, cycle time reduction, and systems architecture.
Ransom now performs plasma experiments. modeling crater formation on asteroids, moons and planets, and has published information about those experiments. He also delivers lectures and talks before scholarly and scientific societies on catastrophism and Velikovsky.
