在这些话题上，我更倾向于 Barber & Barber 的《When They Severed Earth from Sky》。如果 Josephson-Storm 的论点属实，至少考虑到人类至少有一次认定：（a）研究自相矛盾事物的问题在于太容易犯……
On those topics I prefer Barber & Barber, "When They Severed Earth from Sky". If Josephson-Storm's thesis be true, at least given the existence proof that humanity has at least once decided that (a) the problem with studying inconsistent things is that it is too easy to make…

> 想象与猜疑大行其道。《When They Severed Earth From Sky》第 9 章（第 93 页）提出了一个（带有波普尔色彩的？）概念——便利回避综合征（Zone-of-Convenient-Remove Syndrome）：人们可以通过把一个生动且看似合理的故事安在一个无法找其核实的第三方身上，从而让这个故事一直流传下去
> Imagination and suspicion had a field day. Chapter 9 (p.93) of When They Severed Earth From Sky introduces the (Popperian?) trope Zone-of-Convenient-Remove Syndrome: People can perpetuate a vivid and seemingly plausible story by telling it of a third party who can't be consulted for verification
问一个懂怎么玩转 Skyfield 的人的问题：它对大约公元 2150 年的“水瓶座时代拂晓”（dawning of the age of Aquarius）给出的答案是什么？（参见《When They Severed Earth From Sky》第 16 章“Of Sky and Time”，尤其是表 2，了解岁差在古代神话中被频繁提及——或至少被归因于岁差——的情况）
A question for someone who already knows how to wrangle Skyfield: what is its answer for the "dawning of the age of Aquarius" ca. 2150? (see Chap.16 "Of Sky and Time" in "When They Severed Earth From Sky", esp. Table 2, for the prevalence of —or at least ascription to— mentions of precession of the equinoxes in ancient mythology)
H. A. Rey 的《The Stars》（1952）里有一组很棒的连环画，描绘了一个穴居人、一个穿灰色法兰绒西装的现代人，还有一个未来人，都在看着各自版本的大熊座（北斗七星）。Barber 夫妇的《When They Severed Earth From Sky》（2004）提出假说，认为几种古代神话中天界神权更迭，对应的是二分二至点在黄道十二宫上的进动。比如在希腊神话中，……
H A Rey The Stars (1952) had a nice series of cartoons depicting a caveman, a grey-flannel-suit man, and a futuristic man all looking at their respective versions of the big dipper. The Barbers' When They Severed Earth From Sky (2004) hypothesises that the various kingship changes in heaven of several ancient mythologies correspond to the precession of the solstices and equinoxes through the zodiac. Eg, for Greek mythology,…
