Know hazard's of said G2 wave on earth...

 Quoting: catsscratchfever


There aren't any. It's more fear mongering BS. Oh look, it's already May, we're all still here...
 Quoting: Dr. Astro


Would it be possible to find evidence that this event (if ever) has happened before in the past Doc ?????
 Quoting: catsscratchfever


Sure. Just look at this nebula, about 7000 light years closer to the galactic core than we are.
eagleneb
Are the "pillars of creation" intact in the image? Then it hasn't been happening repeatedly throughout history as Paul claims. In fact a blast wave is heading towards the pillars and we will witness their destruction in another thousand years or so, but it didn't originate in the galactic core nor is it a threat to earth.
 Quoting: Dr. Astro


Thanks Doc....The fact Dr LaViolette is selling a book on this subject should of sent up the bullshit flags....

Re: Galactic Superwave Outburst Astronomers Ready to Issue a Public Alert..
Maybe someone can clarify, has this event already happened? How would such a super wave, even traveling at the speed of light, impact our solar system within a few months time from now?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1003364


The Center is about 26,080 light years away, so any light from the event would take that long to get here, or in other words light based observations we make today are from events that happened about 26 thousand years ago. Things other than light move much slower so would take even longer to reach us.. So for example some super-wave event might happen so that we see it today, but the affect wouldn't reach us for several hundred thousand years if not millions.

It's very very very very very far away.

And a superwave probably won't happen or affect us, that makes no sense. Such a wave would have pushed all the stars out of the galaxy by now if it happened periodically.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 56481214


This particular assertion is that something terrible will happen when the G2 cloud passes closest to Sgr A* the black hole at the centre of our galaxy. G2 reached periapsis whith Sgr A* in March and there was no notable increase in X-ray emissions from Sgr A*.

LaViolette maintains that this sort of event is the source of ultra high energy cosmic rays UHECRs. A UHECR from Sgr A* would arrive around 4 micro seconds after the light and x-rays ( they travel very close to the speed of light ) There was no increase in UHCRs in March either. Nothing happened.

Even if all of G2 was swallowed it would only lead to an increase in X-ray emissions from Sgr A*, with no environmental impact on the Earth. Any massive body in G2 ( like a planet or star ) would be carried away from Sgr A*, after periapsis, by its radial velocity. The closest the cloud gets is 3,000 times the Swarzschild radius of Sgr A*.

No doom on offer, sorry :(

Thanks for the link!

Note that except for Newton’s constant G and the speed of light c, all quantities on the right hand side of Eq. (1) have measured values listed in Table 1, or, in the case of the component masses, are derivable from those quantities. The predicted orbital period derivative due to gravitational radiation computed from Eq. (1) is P ̇b,GR = −(2.40242 ± 0.00002) × 10−12 s/s.
Comparison of the measured P ̇b with the theoretical value requires a small correction, P ̇b,Gal, for relative acceleration between the solar system and binary pulsar system, projected onto the line of sight


It actually could be faster than light, but there is no way to measure it...

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 56481214


hum, if we are "seeing" what already happened, "to the past", because of that distance of 20 thousands light years... gama ray bursts also travel at near light speed; so, they'd "come" to us right after the core is hit (because if it was hit 20 thousands years ago, the gama ray would be already close to us as we "see" only now the nebula falling into it)

so, if we "see" the nebula going into the core, we'll also "see" the gama rays RIGHT AFTER, as we would be seeing what indeed happened 20000 years ago and the gama rays that were emitted by then would also be coming to us at a very, very close speed tomato

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24973074

The claim itself predicts we should all be doomed by now. Furthermore, the claim itself predicts that this happens every 10,000 years - so how is it that nebulae structures thousands of light years closer to the galactic core than we are managed to survive those earlier and frequent blasts? Basically any time any story hits the media and mentions cosmic rays, he claims it's verification of his "galactic superwave" bullshit. It's not. Yes, cosmic rays exist, that does not mean that "galactic superwaves" propagate through the galaxy every 10,000 years with the effects he's predicted, which should be hitting us right now.

There are so many things yet unknown and new discoveries are made. I think everything combined might have a great significance.

I like to share a post from another thread:

STELLAR CHEMISTRY
Shockwave findings set to rewrite scientific theories
Research from an international team of scientists led by the University of Leicester has discovered for the first time that one of the most powerful events in our universe - Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB) - behave differently than previously thought.
The study, published in the prestigious scientific journal Nature, uses evidence from observation of a GRB to rule out most of the existing theoretical predictions concerning the afterglow of the explosions.
For Dr Klaas Wiersema, of the University of Leicester's Department of Physics and Astronomy, it was handy that he was up in the middle of the night tending to his three-year-old son which is when he got the alert that a GRB had occurred.
The full article is here: [link to www.spacedaily.com]

Comprising primarily space physicists, the IBEX team realized that the galactic magnetic field wrapped around our heliosphere -the giant "bubble" that envelops and protects our solar system-appears to determine the orientation of the ribbon and the placement of energetic particles measured in it.

"The teraelectronvolt (TeV) particles measured by the team are incredible," Dr. David McComas, IBEX principal investigator and assistant vice president of the Space Science and Engineering Division at Southwest Research Institute, said.

"Each one is up to 12 orders of magnitude more energetic than, for example, a photon of visible light coming from the Sun," he said.
