"The Earth is a dying cell thrown off from the Sun. It cannot maintain its spherical form. It is flattening at the poles and cannot keep in balance with its system by remaining on the plane of the Sun's equator. It is in the very early stages of preparing to throw off more rings such as its first one which has wound up to become a moon. The growth of deserts around its equator is the first early stage of that period. Mars has grown very much older. It still has water but oxygen-dependent life is nearing its end upon it. Deserts take up a large area of it and it is more oblate than the Earth."
"For a good example of old age witness the wrinkled, expanded, oblate body of Jupiter. It has thrown off many rings, and is preparing to throw off more. NATURE ALWAYS THROWS OFF ITS RINGS IN SERIES OF FOUR. Near the surface of Jupiter you will see one series which have wound up into moons. Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the last series thrown of by our Sun. Jupiter has expanded to probably three to four times its original size, and is whirling itself to its centrifugal death with ever increasing acceleration. In the still more oblate Saturn you see three of its next series of rings before they have wound up around newly established gravitative center."
"The study of the way planets and suns die will clearly illustrate to you how your body dies. The point here is that in the speeding up of the dying process of a planet Man errs greatly for he causes such rapid loss of balance that life cannot sustain itself."
~ Walter Russell
