  • cur | prev June 2021 T. Vogel (talk | contribs) . . (1,690 bytes) (+330) . . (→ In this encyclopedia: a doctrine begun in Newton's error about the Moon and ended by a mountain in Perthshire, which then sent a fleet to Antarctica and got a continent out of it)
  • cur | prev 1906 a later hand (talk | contribs) . . (1,360 bytes) (+70) . . (→ struck the shells, kept the openings. the compass variation is not mentioned, that being the part which required arithmetic)
  • cur | prev 1869 C. Teed (talk | contribs) . . (1,290 bytes) (+110) . . (→ Inverted: we are on the inside of the shell and the sky is enclosed by us. this cannot be settled by weighing, which I count in its favour)
  • cur | prev 1842 the Expedition (talk | contribs) . . (1,180 bytes) (+200) . . (→ returned. fifteen hundred miles of Antarctic coast charted, no opening, and a continent where the opening was to have been. Mr Reynolds was not aboard)
  • cur | prev 1836 J. Reynolds (talk | contribs) . . (980 bytes) (+160) . . (→ Expedition: never mind the hole, let us go and look. I have been at the Congress about it for six years and I shall be at them for six more)
  • cur | prev 1829 an executor (talk | contribs) . . (820 bytes) (+40) m . . (→ died 28 May at Hamilton, Ohio, eleven years into the lecturing and no further north than he began)
  • cur | prev 1826 J. McBride (talk | contribs) . . (780 bytes) (+140) . . (→ Concentric spheres: set out at length for the Captain, who lectures but does not write. the engraving of the opened globe is mine)
  • cur | prev 10 April 1818 J. Symmes (talk | contribs) . . (640 bytes) (+260) . . (→ Openings: the shell is pierced at both poles, some fourteen hundred miles across. I pledge my life in support of this truth and am ready to explore the hollow if the world will support me)
  • cur | prev 1778 C. Hutton (talk | contribs) . . (380 bytes) (−180) . . (→ the Perthshire survey reduced: mean density about four and a half times water, against two and a half at the surface. there is no room inside for a space. I record this without pleasure, the author being Halley)
  • cur | prev 1740 P. Bouguer (talk | contribs) . . (560 bytes) (−60) . . (→ talk: I have hung a plumb line beside Chimborazo and the mountain pulls it. the Earth is heavier within than without, though my figure is too coarse to press ~~~~)
  • cur | prev 1692 E. Halley (talk | contribs) . . (620 bytes) (+120) . . (→ the inner airs may well be luminous, and may well be peopled. the aurora is that light getting out at the poles. I am aware how this reads and I set it down because the hypothesis requires it)
  • cur | prev 19 October 1692 E. Halley (talk | contribs) . . (500 bytes) (+500) . . (created; the variation of the compass drifts and no fixed pair of poles will produce a drift. put the Earth in shells, magnetise each, and let them turn at their own rates. it accounts for the drift, which nothing else does)
