It's lines are perfectly straight - nature doesn't do that. CME's are being sucked into it. Suns ARE stargates. (Think black hole/wormhole.) Those sundiving comets aren't comets - they're going thru the gate. (The sun and all planets are hollow, due to centrifugal force. Why do you think Admiral Byrd could find an inner earth?) care to share more? |

We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken.

psyoptics User ID: 11578017 United States 03/19/2012 12:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | just a question. what if we, and the sun, are being hit hard with cosmic rays? i have been looking into GCR's. they seem not very good for us. [link to imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov] However, cosmic rays have been observed at much higher energies than supernova remnants can generate, and where these ultra-high-energies come from is a big question. Perhaps they come from outside the Galaxy, from active galactic nuclei, quasars or gamma ray bursts. Or perhaps they're the signature of some exotic new physics: superstrings, exotic dark matter, strongly-interacting neutrinos, or topological defects in the very structure of the universe. Questions like these tie cosmic-ray astrophysics to basic particle physics and the fundamental nature of the universe. [link to en.wikipedia.org] Cosmic rays are energetic charged subatomic particles, originating in outer space. They may produce secondary particles that penetrate the Earth's atmosphere and surface. The term ray is historical as cosmic rays were thought to be electromagnetic radiation. Most primary cosmic rays (those that enter the atmosphere from deep space) are composed of familiar stable subatomic particles that normally occur on Earth, such as protons, atomic nuclei, or electrons. However, a very small fraction are stable particles of antimatter, such as positrons or antiprotons, and the precise nature of this remaining fraction is an area of active research. and this [link to en.wikipedia.org] A neutron monitor is a ground-based detector designed to measure the number of high-energy charged particles striking the Earth's atmosphere from outer space. For historical reasons the incoming particles are called "cosmic rays", but in fact they are particles, predominantly protons and Helium nuclei. Most of the time, a neutron monitor records galactic cosmic rays and their variation with the 11-year sunspot cycle and 22-year magnetic cycle. Occasionally the Sun emits cosmic rays of sufficient energy and intensity to raise radiation levels on Earth's surface to the degree that they are readily detected by neutron monitors. They are termed "Ground Level Enhancements" (GLE). now read this post Does anyone follow this monitor? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9525784 [link to helios.izmiran.rssi.ru] On the 9th, when this issue with the magnetic field reversal began, the neutrons shot way up to about 15%(I believe it was in the morning hours). It stayed up there for a few hours, then it appeared that the site stopped monitoring for the remainder of the day. When I checked the next morning, the spike was gone and the data was what is showing for the 9th -> on the current chart. Did anyone else see this happen? I'm kicking myself for not taking a screen shot. It didn't appear to be a data error as it didn't stop monitoring when the spike initially happened. It continue to show the level for about 2-3 hours before it stopped working and then the chart remained the same without new data for the remainder of the day. is it possible that these might be found near the galactic ecliptic, and we really are entering into this? i would think if this true the sun would be greatly effected by them and this might be coming from the dark side of the earth. does anyone know where the earth is in relation to the heliosphere's bow shock? is there even a way to know this? [link to helios.gsfc.nasa.gov] if we are then anything coming in would be coming at the dark side of the earth.

[link to helios.gsfc.nasa.gov] if we are then anything coming in would be coming at the dark side of the earth. I appreciate the post, however the "dark side of the Earth" is the "LIGHT SIDE" of the Earth every 12 hours(except at the poles). Also, the Earth revolves around the sun once a year, so it's relationship to the Sol's bowshock is fluctuating accordingly. The Sun is now heading away from the Galactic Plane and won't be aligned with it for 30 million years. [link to www.2012hoax.org] As far as Galactic Cosmic Rays are concerned, they are at predictably low levels as we move toward solar maximum. Increases in solar activity drive away galactic invader particles in the heliosphere. The latest neutron monitor readings confirm this.(click on "daily" for a more dramitic view). [link to cr0.izmiran.rssi.ru] What are cosmic rays? Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) are the high-energy particles that flow into our solar system from far away in the Galaxy. GCRs are mostly pieces of atoms: protons, electrons, and atomic nuclei which have had all of the surrounding electrons stripped during their high-speed (almost the speed of light) passage through the Galaxy. Cosmic rays provide one of our few direct samples of matter from outside the solar system. The magnetic fields of the Galaxy, the solar system, and the Earth have scrambled the flight paths of these particles so much that we can no longer point back to their sources in the Galaxy. If you made a map of the sky with cosmic ray intensities, it would be completely uniform. So we have to determine where cosmic rays come from by indirect means. [link to imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov] More than we'll ever need to know about Cosmic Rays can be found here: [link to neutronm.bartol.udel.edu] If you're really into atom-smashing and Feynman diagrams check out these Cosmic Ray simulations...lots of time-consuming fun!

There was a minor geomagnetic disturbance early today but things are mostly quiet now. [link to www.swpc.noaa.gov] We may soon see more activity from the southern hemisphere. At least two large active regions on the far side are in the south. We'll have to wait 5 or 6 days to see what they bring us.

Possible 6+. Radio Direction Finder has signal coming in East of France from somewhere out in the Northern, Mid to Southern portions of the Pacific plate to Alaska, Canada and Chile. All who live anywhere in the vicinity of this line trajectory should be wary next 5 hours. Have escape plan ready and seek open terrain in the event of felt tremor.
