Thanks OP

In a nutshell...Better figure out where your heart and soul stands with Jesus Christ! From the sound of things here, we will all be face to face with Him soon...some for the Good, others not so much!

Use this information to draw closer to God! I believe this warning has been given to us for that very purpose! He loves us all and wants none to perish!

"For God SO loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16

.

i agree. and true information never gets pinned anyway. the pinned threads are just distractions.

Damn. My signal just went out on my digital television. Normally pretty strong there is no clouds or other things that could have influenced it. Could this be one of the EMP's or some other kind of interference???

See, I told you Planet X is real.

Nevertheless I spent all evening reading this thread.

Great job OP!

Thank you!

5 STARS for amazing quantity and detail.

Cuts cast doubt on asteroid plan
By Paul Rincon
Science Reporter, BBC News

Arecibo Observatory (NAIC)
The Arecibo Observatory's budget looks set to be cut from 2011

Plans to more precisely plot the orbit of an asteroid with a small chance of hitting Earth in 2036 may be badly hit by funding cuts to a US radar facility.

Radar measurements set to be made in January 2013 by the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico, US, could help rule out an impact by asteroid Apophis.

But the cuts mean Arecibo needs an extra $2m-$3m a year to continue.

If not, the observations planned for 2011-2013 will have to be abandoned, the facility's director told BBC News.

Dr Michael Nolan said he was "moderately optimistic" that the money could be found.

But he pointed out that Arecibo was the only observatory in the world sensitive enough for the task.

"If we measure [Apophis] in 2013, there is something like a 95% chance that we'll be able to prove that it can't hit the Earth in 2036," he explained.

Such threats present challenges for policymakers; while the chances of an asteroid strike might be small, the effects would be devastating.

The power of radar for refining the orbits of Near-Earth Objects (Neos) such as Apophis lies in being able to determine the range to the asteroids, by accurate timing of the emitted and returned pulses.

Dr Nolan, who is also the observatory's head of radar astronomy, told BBC News: "If you have a regular telescope, you can tell where it is from left to right in a sense. The radar measures distance, so it is forward to backwards in that same sense.

Orbits the Sun every 324 days, crossing Earth's orbit twice
Not spherical, diameter of 300m; a mass of 27 million tonnes
Name: Ancient Egyptian god Apep ('The Destroyer')
Discovery: In 2004, by a University of Hawaii team
The probability of impact in 2036 is calculated at 1 in 250,000
Will be visible to the naked eye during approach in April 2029

"If you do all of those at once, you get a very good measurement of where it is."

Professor Richard Crowther, chair of the UN Working Group on Near-Earth Objects (Neos) told BBC News: "Unique facilities such as the Arecibo radar can provide us with clear and reliable data on the trajectory of an object such as Apophis, thus helping us determine accurately whether it will collide with Earth in the future."

Although asteroid 99942 Apophis is one of the most hazardous Neos today, the calculated probability of an impact is small.

Last year, the US space agency (Nasa) lowered the chances of an impact on 13 April 2036 from one in 45,000 to one in 250,000.

The 300m-wide asteroid raised concerns in December 2004, when initial observations indicated a probability of up to 2.7% that it would strike Earth in 2029.

Additional measurements ruled out this possibility, but on 13 April 2029, Apophis will approach Earth at a distance no closer than 29,470 km (18,300 miles).

This is within the distance of geosynchronous satellites - and close enough to be seen by the naked eye.

However, if Apophis passes through a gravitational "keyhole" in space, during this approach, the stage will be set for an impact with Earth in 2036.

This keyhole is a precise region in space several hundred metres across, that could alter the asteroid's course through the influence of Earth's gravity.

Tough choice

Astronomers now say this keyhole is likely to be missed, but the planned campaign of optical and radar measurements in 2011-2013 could eliminate completely the possibility of a hazardous encounter in 2036.

Arecibo's funding struggles are well documented. The observatory currently operates on a budget of approximately $12m a year.

Nasa recently lowered the probability of an impact by Apophis (centre)

But the US National Science Foundation (NSF), which operates the facility, has indicated it will substantially cut funding starting from 2011, when the telescope will receive an overall budget of $9m.

"If that holds true with nothing else, we would have to drop this programme.

"The radar programme is the only one that would actually save money if you got rid of it," Dr Nolan said.

In its latest budget request, Nasa has set aside money both for Arecibo and for research on Neos like Apophis. If the space agency picked up the difference - estimated to be on the order of $2m-$3m per year - the project would be able to continue.

But Michael Nolan said this would also depend on how much NSF cuts funding to the Arecibo facility: "At some point, you stop doing maintenance to the telescope and stop cutting the grass and then it's done… the telescope has to work for us to do these observations," he explained.

'Must do more'

Stephen Lowry, from the University of Kent, UK, commented: "Losing the planetary radar capability at Arecibo would not only affect our ability to monitor the orbits of threatening asteroids, but would also have implications throughout asteroid science, in particular with those studies that make extensive use of precise asteroid shape models that radar observing can provide."

In 2011, Apophis will start to become visible again to optical telescopes and it will make a relatively close flyby in January 2013 - passing by Earth at a distance of 13 million kilometres - which would enable measurements by Arecibo's radar.

Dr Nolan said optical observations alone were likely to rule out an impact in 2036, but that radar measurements increased that likelihood.

Another researcher said that while optical telescopes were very powerful in their own right for calculating the orbits of Neos, asteroids might appear unresolved in optical images due to their small size. This was made worse, the scientist said, by the blurring effects of Earth's atmosphere, affecting efforts to determine its orbit.

In January this year, a report by the National Research Council said the US must do more to safeguard our planet against asteroids.

Dr H Jay Melosh, from Purdue University in Indiana, US, said the best method for deflecting a small asteroid would be to fly a relatively heavy spacecraft into it.

"The momentum from the impact would push it off a collision [course]… we have done that - sort of - with the Deep Impact spacecraft; we ran a 300kg spacecraft into a comet," he told BBC News.

By now it should be crystal clear that *something* is happening, no one can say with 100% accuracy what will happen, simply too many variables and a very complicated subject matter of plasma physics. Anyone who claims they know are lying. Like the poster above many will be trying to fit this information and observations to their beliefs yet no ones beliefs can explain what is happening and will happen. When reality conflicts with beliefs people will more often than not choose the belief over reality such is the insanity and irrationality of people.

I wonder if the same thing happened to Mars with all the electrical like scarring, lack of a magnetosphere and atmosphere...

I can't say we don't deserve it, given all the violence, greed over materialistic goods and paper/plastic which in reality is worthless but to so any is worth more than life. The insanity of people who just don't care about anything or anyone, the irrationality of turning your back on the universe in favour of beliefs and people's lack of intelligence, reason and thinking. Instead of trying to understand the universe and yourselves you choose to believe lies and fantasies.

We all die eventually, it is irrational and stupid to fear death. We've trashed this planet, we build cities and grown outwards like cancers devouring everything in our way, frankly it's about time the place got cleaned up.

+1 It's a bit beyond my brain's capacity to handle, but it's sinking in little by little lol. Good work!!

there are already a shills and troll, do you not noticed a "BS" flag everywhere here?

I do believe this, I think only the chosen ones will know and feel something going to happen, theunchosen ones will not pay attention such as these BS flaggers here. They didn't take the time to read the whole things.

June of this year, I better watch after that month.

again, you didn't read the whole thing, didn't you? You must have read only 11% of it....

well its OBVIOUSE your not bullshitting us and that alone deserves a thanks, but not only that, the information is very impressive.

Lol, don't you get it? Sick is making fun of you, because you too lazy to read the whole thing, it only 10 mins to read the whole thing.

Read because it just "life without electricity" there is something more than that will impact earth than just "life without electricity"

Get your lazy eye to working and read, it will affect everything than just "electricity."

To all the people asking for the answer should pay attention to the OP said that he leaving everything behind in june, does not mean anything about "electricity"

Fat more than that, OP is afriad, something frightening Op to move.

Life without electricity do not scare people away, it something more than that.

The wheel is in motion...and the ball is in play.

So lets have a look around and see where you are at in the world..who lives beside you and behind you..and how tenable is your situation for 90 days minimum with little to zero outside help?

If you are in a city..will you have time to get out ahead..or sit tight and get out after the madness or hold on through what ever comes.

No water No Sanitation No Power.

Fuel..Limited..Cash Limited...Law and order Limited.

This is just a thought exercise right now...so do it...

Take a look around you..what do you have to take you through 160 hours of darkness?

If you dont have it and others around you dont have it..then you had better know where to get it...and how.

Others will all have the same problem and motivation without your scruples and compunction..Can you deal? If you can without relying on anothers kindness and concern for your personal well being..you stand a slim chance thats all a slim one.
Your single best hope is to have what you need before you need it..simple as buying a jar of something extra every week
1 jar 1 can at a time.
Do you know the nearest place you can get to day or night on foot or by bike that has anything you need?
Local knowledge..a little route all worked out in your head may give you an edge. Smaller places out of the chaos zone.

Dont think that Government will be shy to SPRAY THE INNER CITY with WHAT EVER SUITS THEIR PURPOSE.
Dont expect to get out of any city just because you want to leave..the farmers and the land are more important than you.
Expect a ring of steel troops and armour to keep you in place or try to.

Katrina times 79..or 80...because as you know the center will not hold...the CIA and the Govt will be in Denver..and God help the rest of you all..and me too..

I have a little time and plan and sometimes thats the only edge you need..to survive and thrive adapt and overcome...I saw solar panels on sale today..small ones very small...portable...I am going to get one..or may be two..

I am going to spend the next 30 days taking inventory of my neighborhood and all the stores that surround it..

I have good shoes and a back pack...and plan..others will have none of that.

30 days to look and plan. 30 days to prepare and buy 30 days to wait and see what moves where..and when the ISS comes home...if I see the ISS evacuated or an unscheduled launch of extra proportions..its red alert time for me.

I live in a very large city..with a huge police presence
32,000 Cops give or take...Military, Paramilitary..and of course Royalty.

There will be enough movements..to watch...I believe this..but DOING is DEMONSTRATING that you KNOW
So what are you going to do?

I have a good question sick, does this have something to do with Obama's authority to shut down internet?

It could be connected?

O.....M.....G

I reckon I'll just sleep thru the doom lol.

Good work OP!

Amazing job on this post, SickScent. I've been reading non-stop now for hours; exploring every link posted.

Absolutely fantastic post.

to be blunt here's a theory of mine with no solid backing or proof whatsoever: Extraterrestrials informed mayans of this event which may occur in 2012. why would mayans give a shit about an emp? they probably didnt but the ETs simply told them it would be a new beginning.

just a theory take it for what it is

WHY ARE THE CUTS FOR THESE YEARS SPECIFICALLY?

For a lousy 2-3 million dollars in funding?

Beware 2012 mawahhahaha.

Yeah I read it and I also read the thread this one is based off of. Like I said No electricity.

that true but there more than just no electricity

I'd just like to join the chorus and say - Great job Sickscent!

You could have shrugged off the "many of you are close..." thread like many of us did, but instead you took the seed and planted a big fat tree!

What you've collected and the conclusions that one can draw are logical and easily understood. For me it answers many questions, especially the list of earth anomalies that we've been experiencing on a more frequent basis.

To those of you who are concerned about being without power, let me give you a little hint: Permanent Magnet Alternator. Buy one or build one - or many. If you survive the shitstorm, you can be the only one in your neighborhood with lights on. Or you could swap your creations for all the food you'll need.

All this thread is speculation and subjecture as it relates to the original thread. And in it the OP says get ready to live with no electricity like in 1800's. And he was developing ways to live electricity free at his place in the country.

I take that back it's trying to explain what the original OP would not tell everyone. Mainly why the electricity would go down due to the sun and other as of yet unexplained forces.

Exactly my point :)

Very nice job putting this together!

Epic thread. Deserves a pin.

Extremes of temperature, freezing temps at night, scorching during the day. Forget swimming pools at the YMCA or your backyard. Imagine radiation storms, diseases.Things would get very ugly real quick. Amazing what true hunger might do to some...
