INTRODUCTION
Urantia has originated from the Monmatia solar system. Monmatia
central sun is one of the multifarious offsprings
of the Andronover nebula, which was onetime organized as a component part of the physical
power and material matter of the local universe of Nebadon.
Andronover nebula itself took origin in the
universal force-charge of space in the superuniverse
of Orvonton long time ago.
FOUR STAGES OF
NEBULAR EVOLUTION
The primary stage of a nebula is circular; the
secondary, spiral; the tertiary stage is that of the nebular first sun
dispersion, while the quartan embraces the second
and last cycle of nebular sun dispersion, with the mother nucleus ending
either as a globular cluster or as a solitary sun functioning as the center
of a terminal solar system.
ANDRONOVER NEBULA -
The Beginning
The Primary Master
Force Organizers of Paradise have long been in full control of the space-energies before
they were organized as the Andronover nebula.
About a million years subsequent to this epoch
that Michael of Nebadon, a Creator Son of Paradise,
selected this disintegrating nebula as the site of his adventure in universe
building. Almost immediately the architectural worlds of Salvington
and the one hundred constellation headquarters groups of planets were begun.
It required almost one million years to complete
these clusters of specially created worlds. The local system headquarters
planets were constructed over a period extending from that time to about five
billion years ago.
987,000,000,000
years ago associate force organizer and then acting inspector of the Orvonton series, traveling out from Uversa,
reported to the Ancients of Days that space conditions were favorable for the
initiation of materialization phenomena in a certain sector of then easterly
segment of Orvonton.
900,000,000,000
years ago the Uversa a permit issued by the Uversa Council of Equilibrium to the superuniverse
government authorizing the dispatch of a force organizer and staff to that
region. The Orvonton authorities commissioned the
original discoverer of this potential universe to execute the mandate of the
Ancients of Days calling for the organization of a new material creation.
Andronover’s PRIMARY Stage
875,000,000,000 years ago the enormous Andronover nebula was duly initiated. Only the presence
of the force organizer and the liaison staff was required to inaugurate the
energy whirl which eventually grew into this vast cyclone of space.
300,000,000,000 years ago the Andronover solar circuits were well established, and the
nebular system was passing through a transient period of relative physical
stability. About this time the staff of Michael arrived on Salvington, and the Uversa
government of Orvonton extended physical recognition
to the local universe of Nebadon.
Andronover’s SECONDARY Stage
200,000,000,000 years ago witnessed the
progression of contraction and condensation with enormous heat generation in
the Andronover central cluster, or nuclear mass.
Relative space appeared even in the regions near the central mother-sun
wheel. The outer regions were becoming more stabilized and better organized;
some planets revolving around the newborn central suns had cooled
sufficiently to be suitable for life implantation. The oldest inhabited
planets of Nebadon date from these times.
Now the completed universe mechanism of Nebadon first begins to function, and Michael's creation
is registered on Uversa as a universe of
inhabitation and progressive mortal ascension.
100,000,000,000 years ago the nebular apex of
condensation tension was reached; the point of maximum heat tension was
attained. This critical stage of gravity-heat contention sometimes lasts for
ages, but sooner or later, heat wins the struggle with gravity, and the spectacular
period of sun dispersion begins. And this marks the end of the secondary
career of a space nebula.
Andronover’s TERTIARY Stage
75,000,000,000 years ago this nebula had
attained the height of its sun-family stage. This was the apex of the first
period of sun losses. The majority of these central suns have since possessed
themselves of extensive systems of planets, satellites, dark islands, comets,
meteors, and cosmic dust clouds.
50,000,000,000 years ago this first period of
sun dispersion was completed; the nebula was fast finishing its tertiary
cycle of existence, during which it gave origin to 876,926 sun systems.
25,000,000,000 years ago witnessed the
completion of the tertiary cycle of nebular life and brought about the
organization and relative stabilization of the far-flung starry systems
derived from this parent nebula. But the process of physical contraction and
increased heat production continued in the central mass of the nebular
remnant.
Andronover’s QUARTAN Stage
10,000,000,000 years ago the quartan cycle of Andronover
began. The maximum of nuclear-mass temperature had been attained; the
critical point of condensation was approaching. The original mother nucleus
was convulsing under the combined pressure of its own internal-heat
condensation tension and the increasing gravity-tidal pull of the surrounding
swarm of liberated sun systems. The nuclear eruptions which were to
inaugurate the second nebular sun cycle were imminent. The quartan cycle of nebular existence was about to begin.
8,000,000,000 years ago the terrific terminal
eruption began. Only the outer systems are safe at the time of such a cosmic
upheaval. And this was the beginning of the end of the Andronover
nebula. This final sun disgorgement extended over a period of almost two billion
years.
7,000,000,000 years ago witnessed the height
of the Andronover terminal breakup. This was the
period of the birth of the larger terminal central suns and the apex of the
local physical disturbances.
6,000,000,000 years ago marks the end of the
terminal breakup and the birth of Monmatia sun, the
fifty-sixth from the last of the Andronover second
solar family. This final eruption of the nebular nucleus gave birth to
136,702 suns, most of them solitary orbs. The total number of suns and sun
systems having origin in the Andronover nebula was
1,013,628. The number of the Monmatia solar system
is 1,013,572.
CONCLUSION
Presently, the great Andronover
nebula is no more, but it lives on in many of its galactic suns and their
planetary families which have originated in this mother cloud of space. The
final nuclear remnant of this magnificent nebula still burns with a reddish
glow and continues to give forth moderate light and heat to its remnant
planetary family of one hundred and sixty-five worlds, which now revolve
about this venerable mother-center of two mighty generations of the Andronover’s galactic central sun system monarchs of
light.
