Summary: "Earths In Our Solar System Which Are Called Planets, and Earths In The Starry Heaven" by Emanuel Swedenborg is a scientific publication that likely originated in the late 19th century. The work explores the existence of other worlds beyond Earth, detailing not only the characteristics of these planets, such as Mercury and Jupiter but also the nature of their inhabitants and their spiritual interactions. The book delves into Swedenborg’s mystical experiences and conversations with both spirits and angels concerning the divine and the structure of the universe. The opening of the book reveals Swedenborg's claims of having interacted with spirits from various celestial bodies. He recounts his experiences of learning about the inhabitants of these other worlds, their customs, and their divine worship practices based on dialogue with spirits he encountered. He posits that it is rational to believe in the existence of multiple inhabited worlds within the universe, explaining the scientific and spiritual mechanisms that connect them. This section sets the foundation for Swedenborg's detailed explorations of individual planets and their ethereal qualities; it piques the curiosity of readers interested in metaphysical discussions about spirituality and the nature of creation.
