GLP rocks, everyone is so far ahead of the curve! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1212988Yes, but that night I noticed a lot of people were using a Iphone / Driod / or other GPS compass, which have had glitches for years now and a whole variety of things like house wiring, electronic devices, etc. throw them off. Threads like that have been around forever, so i didn't pay much attention. |

Thread: Come see live video of the moon, stars, and a telescopic sunrise! (Page 2) It's called seasonal change; the sun doesn't set or rise in the same place every day, it appears to move along the ecliptic over the course of the year. At winter solstice, the sun will rise and set at about the point where -23.44 degrees declination meets your local horizon (if indeed it meets it at all depending on your location on earth). For most of those of us living in the northern hemisphere that will mean the sun sets in a south westerly direction. |

The Inuit eskimo elders confirmed last year that the Earth is physically shifting as well... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1160448[link to poleshift.ning.com] I confirmed that the earth is not physically shifting... Here it is, a photo from mid-November of this year. Quoting: Astronut[link to www.flickr.com] Astrometry reveals that at 1:1 scale, the image angular resolution is 51.32 arcseconds per pixel: [link to www.flickr.com] Polaris coordinates precessed to 2010 are 02h 43m 44.22s, 89d 18' 25.7" so it should have an offset from the north celestial pole of 2494.3 arcseconds. I measure Polaris to be 48.5 pixels offset from the north celestial pole in this image. [link to i319.photobucket.com] That equates to an offset of 2489.02 arcseconds, well within the resolution of the photo itself. It doesn't get more accurate than that using this technique. Conclusion? The north celestial pole is right where it should be. That's quite in contradiction to Igloolik elder Augustine Taqquraq's claim that the sun is "44 degrees off" documented here: [link to www.isuma.tv] |

[link to www.nasa.gov] Sometimes the field completely flips. The north and the south poles swap places. Such reversals, recorded in the magnetism of ancient rocks, are unpredictable. They come at irregular intervals averaging about 300,000 years; the last one was 780,000 years ago. Are we overdue for another? No one knows. |

Of course it is well known among geologists that we have magnetic flips every so many years as well as extinction events. The question being posed among those who study such things would be when and how fast do these events occur. Catyclysmic geology as first proposed around Einstiens time seems to indicate that they happen quickly as fossil evidence seems to show this. |

On the north- or southpole the diffence would be much bigger. |

This is all new territiry for many and all we can do at this point is follow up on educated premises. Even with all of our technology we are at the mercy of mother nature.

Quoting: AstronutShow me a significant correlation between magnetic pole reversals and extinction events. The Pleistocene era would be the obvious example. this( magnetic pole reversal) was observed in Japan in the 1920's. The team discovered that the deposits had a polarization flip as they cooled. This period is known for its glacial cycles and the extiction events connected to many large North American mammals such as the Giant Sloth, Mammoth etc. Notice that during the flip the continetal plates were stable. Sorry for spll errors etc ..small keyboard and in a hurry. Evidence shows dramatic climate change though. |

And here again; Alexander Fefelov, a senior spokesman for the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, said that planet Earth would have its magnetic and geographic poles relocated during the upcoming years. “Planet Earth on the orbit is a round object in weightlessness. The planet may suddenly change its axial inclination from time to time. It happens once in 23,000 years. The pole displacement angle may reach 30 degrees. The South Pole used to be located in the area of Easter Island before the latest displacement, whereas the North Pole was located in the Himalayas. That is why mammoths, rhinoceroses and saber-toothed tigers used to inhabit Arctic latitudes. It was a very sudden displacement of poles. Archeologists still uncover animals with indigested herbal food in their stomachs, which means that the animals died as a result of fast freezing, so to speak,” the scientist said. Who needs more proof - should go to look somewhere else. Perhaps outside this box and the telescope! |
