Everything is very quiet on planet Earth.

Everything is very quiet on planet Earth. Until when?

The sun goes down and there is no prediction of the end of the world. Earthquakes are powerless. Hurricanes in full season in the North Atlantic have not yet shown its strength in 2013. Does the Earth is going through some point of calm and is just taking a while to recover?

Global Dashboard


Two years ago, a simple look at the map of the Global Panel was already a concern. Earthquakes happen all the time and large magnitude earthquakes were registered in Chile, Haiti and Japan Tsunami waves caused by strong earthquakes were a real risk and almost everyone wondered if earthquakes were increasing.

Time was passing. Earthquakes and decreased fear that concussions were multiplying been virtually overlooked. After all, the year 2012 was coming and many people began to pay more attention to the famous Mayan Prophecy. After all, if she would confirm the end of our planet.

Among other things, the prophecy stated that in December 2012 should happen the famous "galactic alignment", the approach of the imaginary planet Nibiru and the reversal of the magnetic poles of the Earth, beyond the big solar storms able to extinguish all life on the blue planet. The world was racing and anything could happen. Who does not remember that?

However, things do not always go the way planned or imagined. December 2012 came and "Nibiru" did not come. The magnetic poles also not reversed, the world has not ended and earthquakes of great magnitude in stopped as if by magic, getting into the middle centuries.

But 2013 also promised.

The peak of Solar Cycle 24 should happen in the middle of the year and if solar storms were provided even the "big" events like the famous Halloween Storm would be small cafe, with possible electrical blackouts around the world. Furthermore, the possibility of comet C/2012 S1 ISON become as bright as the full moon in November the year 2013 gave a kind of magical aura, different, but not so many cataclysmic events significant.

Solar Explosion



Well here we are, almost at the finish line to end the year and nothing has been confirmed. The sun does not meshed, earthquakes continue in middle and hurricanes have also not shown their faces. The highlight was the same for something completely unpredictable what happened in February, when a possible fragment of asteroid entered the atmosphere over central Russia.


Why does this happen?
Despite major advances we have had in recent years, many events are still far from being accurately forecast and the reason is simple enough to be understood: the lack of standards that will guide researchers.

Of all the events mentioned, the ones who have known and extensively studied patterns are of atmospheric origin. Even if sometimes the weather forecasts and long-term trends do not occur, yet the number of hits is quite large and can say that the weather forecasts are quite reliable.


Few Earthquakes
On the other hand, earthquake prediction is a science embryonic and however much you try to find patterns that might lead to a reliable result, yet we do not see any possibility to set the day, time and place where an earthquake of great magnitude will happen. What is known are the possible sites of rupture and a series of statistical analyzes on where the voltage may be swelling.

Based on this, the lack of significant earthquakes in recent months can be interpreted as an accumulation of energy in the interface regions between the plates, which can be released gradually through small earthquakes or else at once, through an earthquake large proportions. So do not wonder if there is an earthquake of great magnitude in the coming months. Chance is the hallmark of these events.

Low Solar Activity
With respect to the Sun, there is no doubt that our knowledge of the king star has multiplied in recent years. The forecasting space weather is already able to predict possible solar flares and even when charged particles reach Earth. 10 years ago it was virtually impossible and today these predictions are quite used in various branches of human activity.

The problem is that despite being known solar cycles and prove fairly standardized, the weak activity of the star observed in recent years was not intended. It was hoped a maximum solar much more active, with more explosions, flares and intense winds. It is not known exactly why this has not happened so far, although by the end of the year things can be reversed.

As we have seen, the apparent calm current on our planet is not a stable condition. Except for the predictable nature of climate events, natural occurrences of large proportions can happen anytime without having any clear pattern to indicate your arrival. We still have much to learn.
