PROJECT 5: NOBEL LAUREATES, page 2

THE LAUREATES

Unlike the individuals in most of the other projects completed at the Cosmic Data-Bank, the Nobel Laureates are nominated for the prestigious award by their peers and then the nominees in each category are judged by a panel of adjudicators. The Nobel Prizes are awarded to those nominated individuals deemed most suitable for the recognition. It is complicated, secretive, and undoubtedly at times political. Here is the cosmic profile of this blue-ribbon cast of characters.

In total there are 790 names with birth information gathered in all categories; Chemistry, Economics, Literature, Medicine & Physiology, Peace and Physics. The names run the gamut of the alphabet from Jane Addams to Richard Zsigmondy. The oldest Laureate in this distinguished group is Theodor Mommsen, born 11-30-1817, who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1902. The youngest Laureate is Eric A. Cornell, born 12-19-1961, the recipient of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2001.

HELIOGRAM TYPES

The first level of heliogram assessment is to establish the TYPE. Eight major heliogram types have been established at the Cosmic Data-Bank and the frequency of each in this group of 790 men and women is shown in the table below. The right-most column of the table shows the frequency of the heliogram types in the Adams & Eves Control Group.

The frequency of the heliogram types is sometimes similar for the Nobel Laureates and the Control Group but there are some differences as well. It is clear that the Laureates may be born under any of the grand arrangements of our solar system. The Bee Type is seldom seen in any of the 23 projects completed to date.

PLANETARY PATTERNS

The first level of assessment of a heliogram is to determine the TYPE and the second level determines the planetary patterns. Five distinct patterns have been seen in all the projects completed at the Cosmic Data-Bank and their frequency is shown in the tables below. The first table shows the ONLY count and the second shows the COMBO section. Heliograms with a single pattern are counted in the ONLY column and those heliograms with two or more different patterns present are counted in the COMBO column. A heliogram with two or more examples of the same pattern, but no different pattern, is counted in the ONLY table.

There are 22 Nobel Laureates without any of the five planetary patterns on their heliogram.

To find the total frequency of a pattern in the Nobel Laureates, sum the percentages of ONLY and COMBO for the pattern. For example, the T-square pattern is found as the ONLY pattern in 11.5% of the group, and as COMBO patterns in 48.3% of the group, for a total frequency of 59.8% in the Nobel Laureates. In the Adams & Eves control group, t-squares are found with a total frequency of 30%.

The enigma of the Grand Trine as an ONLY pattern is apparent here. The Grand Trine and the T-square both consist of a minimum of three planets and the T-square has twice as many opportunities to form as the Grand Trine but the stats show the Grand Trine at 0.4% and the T-square at 11.5% of the ONLY heliograms. This contrast is consistent throughout all the projects and it makes me ask if those individuals born with a Grand Trine as an Only pattern were induced at birth and not allowed to arrive on their own terms.

A SEASONAL EFFECT?

The CD-B research committee was curious to know if more Nobel Laureates were born in one season or another. The answer to the question may be found in the table below which has been set for the seasons of the Northern Hemisphere.

More Laureates were born in the Spring than in any other season with 28.2% of the total number, while only 20.1% were born during the Winter season. Nobel Laureates are born in all the seasons of the year in both hemispheres in almost equal numbers.
