The Bermuda Triangle "mystery" has to do with unexplained disappearances of ships and airplanes in a vast region of the ocean around Bermuda. The most reasonable explanation for these disappearances is that the vessels sank.

In science; an acceptable argument must have a clearly set forth chain of evidence. If a single link in the chain is broken, the argument fails. In the case of Worlds in Collision, we have the opposite case: virtually every link in the chain is broken.

a stranger remarks with wonder on the accomplishments of a checker playing dog. The dog's owner replies, "Oh, it's not all that remarkable. He loses two games out of three."

Na Arean sat alone in space as a cloud that floats in nothingness. He slept not, for there was no sleep; he hungered not, for as yet there was no hunger. So he remained for a great while, until a thought came to his mind. He said to himself, ‘I will make a thing.’

Some students of human evolution believe that part of the selection
pressure behind this enormous burst in brain evolution was in the
motor cortex and not at first in the neocortical regions responsible for
cognitive processes. They stress the remarkable abilities of human
beings to throw projectiles accurately, to move gracefully, and—as
Louis Leakey enjoyed illustrating by direct demonstration—naked, to
outrun and immobilize game animals. Such sports as baseball,
football, wrestling, track and field events, chess and warfare may owe
their appeal—as well as their largely male following—to these
prewired hunting skills, which served us so well for millions of years
of human history but which find diminished practical applications
today.

I was one of the scientists opposed to an early Apollo mission. But once the Apollo technology was in hand, I was very much for its continuing usage. I believe the wrong decision was made twice–once in opting for early manned missions to the Moon, and later in abandoning such missions.
