A few more thoughts wrt Ganymede
I've described the logic of the Ganymede hypothesis recently:

A couple of more thoughts which are not included in the book "Ganymede Hypothesis" available on Amazon...
Pico Island in the Portuguese Azores is the highest point of land in the Atlantic and the center of the 'Atlantic Bulge', and would have been the point directly under Saturn in the ancient Saturnian alignment. Opposite that on the globe is the middle of the Pacific ocean, which is where those first humans on Earth would have splashed down after being taken off of Ganymede via a water bridge or similar electrical/hydraulic phenomenon.
Those first humans needed three things:
- They needed to be taken to dry land; sure they were semi-aquatic but they would not have survived in the middle of the Pacific on their own. I assume they were taken to Australia by whales and dolphins.
2, and 3. They needed Earth at the time to be warm enoiugh that they wouldn't just freeze or die of exposure in the middle of the Pacific and they needed the Purple Dawn environment to have brightened at least temporarily (for a few hundred or a few thousand years) so that they could get used to the Purple Dawn gradually when conditions returned to normal.
What I believe to be the case is that the xfer of humans coincided with the Eemian climate optimum and a deep prehistoric "golden age" in which Saturn had morphed from a purple to a glow-mode dwarf star. It seems likely that climate optimums and golden ages occur in pairs; the Eemian and a golden age corresponding to it having been brought about by that first near approach of the Saturnian system to the Jupiter/sun system.
Likewise the Greco-Roman classical golden age seems to have corresponded to the Holocene climate optimum.
Habits of thought are hard to break... One thing Troy McLachlan and I got wrong with that first book on the subject that we published in 2013 was including images that assumed an orbiting system for Jupiter and its moons. Those showed Ganymede as a hellscape when Ganymede would prresumably pass between Jupiter and the sun,...
As has become clear more recently, our ancient system was linear and not orbital, and Ganymede was never a hellscape. As the intro on Steemit shows, the overall system looked like this:
And people on Ganymede saw a permanent eclipse, while shielded by Jupiter from the center mass of the sun:
Again for anybody who might have missed this earlier...
People debating the merits of Velikovsky's claims in the nineteen sixties and seventies were talking about thermal balance and heat sources when they should have been talking about axis tilts. It turns out that Venus and Jupiter have the exact same tilt to within less than half a degree. That means that Velikovsky was correct in claiming that Venus had originated with Jupiter and not Saturn and also that Venus being described as an "eye of Ra" means that Ra was Jupiter and not Saturn.
What seems to be the case is there were two, not one, but two prehistoric alignments: An antediluvian Saturnian alignment (Saturn, Neptune, Mars, Earth i.e. the bodies with the roughly 26-degree axis tilts) and a post-diluvian Jovian system (mainly Jupiter, Venus, Mars, Earth), with the potential for confusion being substantial for anybody trying to piece that picture together.
