Old article but still ongoing....We should be through in less than 500,000 years.

This could be what’s behind it all.

...and contains a wispy mixture of hydrogen and helium atoms at a temperature of 6000 C. Well, that should melt those icecaps.

Now will we stop driving our SUV’s?

Man caused Galactic warming - oh no.
Ban all helium ballons.
Ban all hydrogen cars.
We’ve got to save the Galaxy.
Quick - make a new Cap and Trade Law to trade hydrogen and helium credits.
I’m starting a new company to manage trading for hydrogen and helium credits.
Who wants in? Only $1,000,000 per share. Hurry, hurry, get your stock now - it’s going fast.

LOL, but no.
The gas is fast moving (hence the 6000 C temperature) but it has very low density. There’s very little heat contained in this cloud, given its size.

Yeah.
I got time to ride it out.

How can that be? We know that some scientists (especially evolutionists) are gods in their own minds.

Damn - there's that reality thing intruding on theoretical physics again... It's just a galatic Hot Pocket cooling off

My bet is its less than 500,00 years. But its all theoretical at this point.

Bush should have known. He should have warned us.

Could have been 450,000...but you know, Bushco, Darth Cheney and Rove made it worse...

Thanks Dallas59.
The solar system is passing through an interstellar cloud that physics says should not exist. In the Dec. 24th issue of Nature, a team of scientists reveal how NASA's Voyager spacecraft have solved the mystery. "Using data from Voyager, we have discovered a strong magnetic field just outside the solar system," explains lead author Merav Opher, a NASA Heliophysics Guest Investigator from George Mason University. "This magnetic field holds the interstellar cloud together and solves the long-standing puzzle of how it can exist at all."

My “secret” is the dripping, straight-faced sarcasm contained in that post....:)
