| In presenting excerpts from the archives of Jerusem for the records of Urantia respecting its antecedents and early history, we are directed to reckon time in terms of current usage--the present leap-year calendar of 365¼ days to the year. As a rule, no attempt will be made to give exact years, though they are of record. We will use the nearest whole numbers as the better method of presenting these historic facts. |

| All evolutionary material creations are born of circular and gaseous nebulae, and all such primary nebulae are circular throughout the early part of their gaseous existence. As they grow older, they usually become spiral, and when their function of sun formation has run its course, they often terminate as clusters of stars or as enormous suns surrounded by a varying number of planets, satellites, and smaller groups of matter in many ways resembling your own diminutive solar system. |

| About the time of the attainment of the maximum of mass, the gravity control of the gaseous content commenced to weaken, and there ensued the stage of gas escapement, the gas streaming forth as two gigantic and distinct arms, which took origin on opposite sides of the mother mass. The rapid revolutions of this enormous central core soon imparted a spiral appearance to these two projecting gas streams. |

| In the early days of your sun the continued contraction and consequent gradual increase of temperature initiated tremendous convulsions on its surface. These titanic heaves required three and one-half days to complete a cycle of varying brightness. This periodic pulsation rendered your sun highly responsive to certain outside influences which were to be shortly encountered. Thus was the stage of set for the unique origin of Monmatia, the name of your solar system.

| The planets nearest the sun were the first to have their revolutions slowed by tidal friction. Such gravitational influences also contribute to the stabilization of planetary orbits while acting as a brake on the rate of planetary revolution, causing a planet to revolve ever slower until rotation ceases, leaving one hemisphere always turned toward the sun or larger body, as is illustrated by Mercury and by the moon, which always turns the same face toward Urantia. |

| Throughout these early times the solar system was swarming with small disruptive, condensation bodies, and in the absence of a protective combustion atmosphere such space bodies crashed directly on the surface of Urantia. These incessant impacts kept the surface of the planet more or less heated, and this, together with the increased action of gravity, began those influences which gradually caused the heavier elements to settle toward the center of the planet. |

| In all Satania there are only sixty-one worlds similar to Urantia, life-modification planets where the Life Carriers are afforded leeway in their plans for life implantation. One world in ten is designated as a decimal planet and on such planets we are permitted to undertake certain life experiments in an effort to modify or possibly improve the standard universe types of living beings. |
