The New Cosmic Age is now Official!

"Earth and space are about to come into contact in a way that's new to human history."

"I believe we’re on the threshold of a new era in which space weather can be as influential in our daily lives as ordinary terrestrial weather."

"We take this very seriously indeed."

"Researchers liken the plumes to smoke billowing out of a factory smokestack—except instead of ordinary ash and dust, ion plumes are made of electrified gas floating so high above ground they come in contact with space itself. "The plumes appear during geomagnetic storms and they can interfere with satellite transmissions, airline navigation and radio communications," says Fuller-Rowell. Indeed, it is their effect on GPS signals that led to the discovery of plumes over North America just a few years ago." See Strange Space Weather over Africa.

"Much of what we have read about climate change, [Plimer] argues, is rubbish, especially the computer modeling on which much current scientific opinion is based, which he describes as "primitive."…

The Earth's climate is driven by the receipt and redistribution of solar energy. Despite this crucial relationship, the sun tends to be brushed aside as the most important driver of climate. Calculations on supercomputers are primitive compared with the complex dynamism of the Earth's climate and ignore the crucial relationship between climate and solar energy.

To reduce modern climate change to one variable, CO2, or a small proportion of one variable—human-induced CO2—is not science. To try to predict the future based on just one variable (CO2) in extraordinarily complex natural systems is folly."

"We were looking at the Circle Connectors website this evening, when my son mentioned that the symbols on the formation at South Field, Near Alton Priors, Wiltshire, June 27th, looked like something he had seen in a Mayan depiction. I did some research and found some correlation to at least some of the symbols on Mayan calendar wheel. I referred to the calendar wheel link provided from Calleman’s site at www.calleman.com , which referred me to mayaportal.lucita.net . The symbols at the bottom of the appendages at each side of the formation appear to be “Oxlahun” or Tone Thirteen, which represents ascension and the completion of all things. The energy of this tone completes, evolves, and transcends. About halfway up the appendage on the left, there appears to be the symbol for “Uac” or Tone Six, which represents flow and movement of volume through space, creating time. Perhaps an expert in Mayan translations could decipher more of the meanings of this formation. Just thought I would put the idea out there that this might be an avenue to explore. Vicky Miller"

"August 1, 1990, to August 1, 1993, according to Andean prophecy, the world experienced a pachakuti, an "overturning of space-time". [...] Within the prophectic tradition, the term pachakuti is applied to any cosmic transformation. Such a movement of energy, of consciousness, ripples through space-time, affecting every aspect of our sense of selfhood in time and space and of our sense of interconnectedness with the Great Web of Being. A pachakuti signals a dynamic point of intersection in space-time between human consciousness and kawsay, the multi-dimensional creative principle and the animating energy of the cosmos, an intersection from which the arrow of time for each possible future is nudged in one direction or the other."

"You can't protect what you can't see. And, right now, America's military has a really, really hard time seeing into space. Which means U.S. satellites could be at risk. So it makes sense that the Air Force is spending a whole lot of money on "space situational awareness" -- getting a better picture of what's in orbit -- before the service starts investing big in the more outlandish tools of space war. Air Force magazine breaks down the programs:

The Space Fence is an array of dispersed radars that track satellites as they pass over the United States. The Air Force is planning a $275 million upgrade over the next five years that will convert the system to S-band radar, allowing greater search capability and faster revisit times. It also will sharpen the resolution of the radar, so that it can see objects from a current minimum of 12 inches in size down to two inches in size. The radars themselves will be distributed over a wider geographical area, giving a better view of the horizon. They will be able to see beyond low earth orbit (LEO) to medium Earth orbit (MEO). [Col. Ronald] Grundman said the old hardware likely will be retired around 2011, because “it’s reaching some sustainability limits.” Pentagon's Space Spies, JUNE 7, 2006, Defensetech.org

"Karen Alexander, a crop circle expert, said: "We have seen butterfly and bird patterns in the past, but this is the first jellyfish crop circle in the world. "It is absolutely huge - roughly three times the size of most crop patterns and extremely interesting. People have been aghast at the size of it. It is a complete monster. "We are looking into the meaning of it, but at present it just seems to have appeared out of nowhere.""

"The photo is priceless. This to me summarizes the complete lack of scientific approach to everything these days. Everyone sits round a PC and blindly believes whatever nonsense it spews out. No first principles. No cause and effect. No understanding of physics, mathematics or even statistics. Just run any number of widely available computer modeling programs, fit the historical data and hey presto another science breakthrough."

• Is global warming responsible for a slow tornado season? .
  "Stormchasers across Tornado Alley have been frustrated this spring by what seems to be a lack of tornadoes and severe weather. Indeed, VORTEX2, the largest tornado field study ever, has been running for more than two weeks now and has not seen one twister. Last week, Weather Channel Senior Meteorologist Stu Ostro speculated that global warming was the cause." The only thing we know for sure is that most meteorologists and climatologists have not identified all the factors that generate our weather and climate. This has been proven over and over again by the higher prediction success rates by the few who do take into account electromagnetic influences.
  

"For the spacecraft industry, however, the primary approach to mitigating the effects of space weather is to design satellites to operate under extreme environmental conditions to the maximum extent possible within cost and resource constraints. GPS modernization through the addition of two new navigation signals and new codes is expected to help mitigate space weather effects (e.g., ranging errors, fading caused by ionospheric scintillation), although to what degree is not known. These technologies will come on line incrementally over the next 15 years as new GPS satellites become operational. In the meantime, the Federal Aviation Administration will maintain “legacy” non-GPS-based navigation systems as a backup, while other GPS users (e.g., offshore drilling companies) can postpone operations for which precision position knowledge is required until the ionospheric disturbance is over."

"It would be difficult to overstate the societal contribution of GPS. As discussed in the first workshop session, GPS is in the process of revolutionalizing aviation navigation.
• GPS receivers enable users to determine the time to within 100 billionths of a second, without the cost of owning and operating atomic clocks. This capability can be of enormous value to firms that need to synchronize their network computers or instruments. [BANK TRANSACTIONS!]
• GPS technology is revolutionizing transport logistics by making it possible to track and forecast the movement of freight.
• GPS may one day result in a significant reduction in highway fatalities by warning drivers when their car is about to leave the roadway.
• GPS-based applications enable farmers to adopt precision agricultural methods of planning, field mapping, soil sampling, tractor guidance, crop scouting, and yield mapping. For example, GPS allows more precise application of pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers, thereby increasing output at lower cost.
• GPS provides the fastest and most accurate method for mariners to determine their location. This is a significant benefit, given the nation’s reliance on imported oil carried by tankers and the environmental consequences of oil spills."

"One single person took on the world's almighty physics, astrophysics, astronomy and cosmology establishments, the Nobel establishment, the Media powerhouses and the mighty Government organizations called NASA and OSTP. Together, these communities constitute the highest and the most powerful group of intellectuals in the history of mankind. Within a year of publication of this site, John C. Mather was indecorously removed from the Chief Scientist post at the NASA Headquarters, and sent back packing to his pre-Nobel job at Goddard Space Flight Center."

A new active period of Earth-threatening solar storms will be the weakest since 1928 and its peak is still four years away, after a slow start last December, predicts an international panel of experts led by NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center." [...]

"Besides the 18,000 Swedish cases are thousands of cases from Denmark and other Nordic countries. Thousands of US cases on micro film are too included. The archive (Norrkoping) will be open to the public domain starting with May 9-10, 2009.

The chairman of UFO Sweden Clas Svahn mentions one case of special interest, a case from 1980. A cigar shaped UFO submerged itself into a mountain lake and never came up again according to witnesses. Svahn comments, "it may still be there, since the lake never been monitored by divers."
