Sea & Sun Stuff

Are we living in wild times or what? The real question is just how will we live out (survive?) what appears to be going on. The stock markets around the world are crashing and WILL in the coming months. However, the financial matters are the least of our worries unless you still have your 401k invested in stocks. There's still time to get out of the markets, and there's still time to increase your consciousness about our universe, and life in general. 

The relative lack of sun spots has everyone scratching their heads as we should be seeing great increases. Global cooling?

Just maybe we're going to be more impacted by magnetic filaments which seem to have played havoc with our earth (can you say Haiti and Chile earthquakes?). For the fourth day in a row, a dark magnetic filament is bisecting the sun's northeastern quadrant. Measuring more than 100,000 km from end to end, it is literally the biggest thing on the face of our star. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory has a good view of the structure.

This one is the biggest of the year.

Long, active filaments like this have been known to grow unstable and erupt, producing a type of spotless flare called a "Hyder flare." If that happens now, Earth would likely feel some effects from the blast because the filament is turning to face our planet. And what could we expect in a worse case scenario? You don't want to go there. Suffice it to say that on the more moderate end of the consequences, more volcanoes and earthquakes.

And then there's the sea floor issue!

Did you know that  the sea floor around Australia is rising? I am no talking inches per year, but 13 feet per day! More and more things are happening that really shouldn't. Is the 2012 events we are waiting for, starting already? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has a Tsunami station in event mode activated for Station 55023 – STB Coral Sea located at 14.803 S 153.585 E (14°48'9″ S 153°35'6″ E). The tsunami station has been in event mode since the large quakes occurred in the area for several days now. This is triggered by the buoys' anomalies of water column height above the sea floor.

If you do a data search for 2010 March 20th to 2010 April 13th you get this- Over 100 meters or 328 feet less distance from buoy to sea floor in 24 days! That's 13 feet per day since the quakes. What's up with that?

Indeed what's up with so many things we can't control?
