Solar storms earlier this month may have caused military satellites to reboot Despite being made to withstand radiation emitted from solar flares, a storm caused by the sun earlier this month may have temporarily knocked American military satellites offline, according to General William Shelton, head of the Air Force’s Space Command. The energy particles associated with two solar storms March 9 and 10 may have caused what are called “single event upsets” on military satellites. “The timing is such that we say this was likely … Continue reading

iPocalypse? 2012 & the Coming Solar Megastorm!
Are we about to be disconnected? Was that the plan? Hate to trouble you with this, but todays : “Solar Explosions Now On Official Register As Threat To The Security Of Hi-Tech Britain” story made me rethink something I wrote in 2008. And to be frank, there seems to be “scare ‘em off the charts” fear mongers everywhere. Media War mongers, and now sun mongers with the recent blasts in early march 2012. But this is a concern. Or it should be. Solar X-Ray Flares … Continue reading

Massive solar flare ‘could paralyse Earth in 2013′
A massive solar flare could cause global chaos in 2013, causing blackouts and wrecking satellite communications, a conference heard yesterday. Nasa has warned that a peak in the sun’s magnetic energy cycle and the number of sun spots or solar flares around 2013 could generate huge radiation levels. The resulting solar storm could cause a geomagnetic storm on Earth, knocking out electricity grids around the world for hours, days, or even months, bringing much of normal life grinding to a halt. Defence Secretary Liam Fox, … Continue reading

Surrealism in 2012: Toward the World of the Fifth Sun
Mayan prophecy leads to burst of surrealist art By Ron Schira The Mayan calendar marks the 2012 winter solstice as the beginning of what they called the 14th baktun, or the fifth cycle and rebirth of the sun. In our calendar terminology this is about 5,500 years. Adapting this ancient system and the symbolic reference to the current end-of-the-world hysteria, scores of surrealist artists and writers worldwide have contributed their art to a symposium of sorts that has now become an exhibit on view through … Continue reading
Was Phobos downed by the Sun or a technical flaw?
Did a catastrophic Solar Flare knock out Russia’s Phobos satellite? The fall of Russia’s Phobos space probe might have been caused by a solar flare, an intergovernmental commission reported to the Roskosmos state agency on Thursday. However, some experts have offered other versions of the crash. According to the commission, a cloud of plasma released during the November 4 solar flare remained active for the following 10 days and could have affected the probe’s launch. These experts believe that a technical or construction failure was … Continue reading
