Re: ***MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT RE: SUN'S 11 YR SUNSPOT CYCLE - MAJOR DROP IN SOLAR ACTIVITY - POSSIBLE ICE AGE??**
Scientists have finally solved the mystery of the recent period of decreased solar activity during the Sun's 11-year cycle.

Experts observed that the recent solar minimum was the deepest observed in almost 100 years. This has important implications for safety of space travel and the amount of orbital debris our planet accumulates.

"Plasma currents deep inside the Sun interfered with the formation of sunspots and prolonged the solar minimum," says lead author Dibyendu Nandi of the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research in Kolkata.

Because of the reduced activity, the Sun's magnetic field weakened, allowing cosmic rays to penetrate the solar system in record numbers, making space a more dangerous place to travel.

And the decrease in UV radiation caused Earth's upper atmosphere to cool and collapse.

Consequently, space debris stopped decaying and started accumulating in Earth orbit due to increased atmospheric drag.

Observations from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) will eventually provide measurements that could validate the current model and provide the basis for future solar cycle prediction.

"This research demonstrates how observations from Heliophysics Systembservatory missions stimulate new theories and advance modelling techniques," said Richard Fisher, director of the Heliophysicsivision in NASA's Science Mission Directorate at the agency's headquarters in Washington.

Yup, they're grubbing for money. But who can blame them? Israel -- to name just one boondoggle -- gets $3 billion per year and NASA probably a tiny fraction of that. So of course they're begging...

if the announcement was of ANY significance to anyone, NASA wouldn't be the one announcing it, mmmkay?

It probably be something like - "hey guess what the sun has an 11 year sunspot cycle, cool huh?"

"For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another." -- Galatians 5:14-26

I just asked about that last week around here. For numerous years I have slept head east feet west. Go to sleep in that position. Wake up in it. In the last three months I am waking up head Northeast feet SW. I was asking others if they were experiencing the same. No responses. Can you talk more about that.

Its probably just an announcement stating that solar flares have now been linked to seismic activity (earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions), and were in for a bumpy ride between 2011-2012... (major seismic activity, in respect to the impending solar storm)...

In all reality, its a Major announcement. So there is obviously, some bad news.

Though I doubt its the end of the world for at least another 24hours...
