| Solar outbursts : russian scientist bets $10K that global cooling is coming |
| 2005-09-22 |
| Oh, and a killer Kosmic Kloud is gonna wipe us out in 2014 (I thought it was 2012?)... It's Pravda so it must be true (well, if it is, we're screwed)... The Sun does not behave while the Earth is threatened by dust cloud Even scientists are surprised at large solar outbursts "According to the forecasts everything must be peaceful and quiet on the Sun now", senior researcher at the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Russian Academy of Science, Sergey Yazev says. "The maximum of the solar activity in this cycle came in 2000. The minimum was will be in 2006. We've just observed abnormal burst of activity on the Sun. The reasons are unknown yet". Looks like something unusual is going on. Yazev adds, "Scientists on Earth started watching the Sun from satellites and orbital telescopes only in the beginning of the 1970s. Since then there were no such anomalies. But that does not necessarily mean that this never happened at all. Maybe such outbursts happen once in fifty or hundred years. There are no reasons for panic. I think that earth dwellers will keep warm under the sun for the next couple of years. Solar outburst is a surge of energy that can be compared with the explosion of several thousands of hydrogen bombs. Violent outbursts lead to the fact that strong E-field radiation reaching the Earth changes magnetic field of the planet as if shaking it. In its turn this affects health of meteosensitive people. Such people comprise 15 percent of the planet's population according to World Health Organization. By the way, during the solar activity micro flora multiplies more intensively and a person becomes more vulnerable to many infections. In fact, flu epidemics start 2,3 years before or after the maximum of solar activity. |
