(1)From The Sun itself:
The Sun - 1 - Magnetic Field Since 1901, the sun's magnetic field has become 230% stronger.
The Sun - 2 - Energy Output - Since the 1970s the energy output of the sun has increased by 0.05% per decade, or 0.15% up to now. Of course, that's not saying how much it might have increased from prior centuries before it was measured in the 1970s.
The Sun - 3 - Sunspots - Sunspots are related to the Sun's magnetic field and their occurance rises and falls with the Sun's energy cycles. And, Solar scientists say there have been more sunspots since the 1940s than in the past 1150 years.
The Sun - 4 - Solar Flares - Solar flares are magnetic storms on the Sun. They are huge eruptions of vast amounts of very hot high-energy particles and gases (from 3.6 million to 24 million °F), ejected far into space. A solar flare on November 4 of 2003 was described by scientists as one that "will go into the history books as one of the most dramatic solar activity periods in modern times" and "there has been none like it" as far as we know.
The Sun - 5 - Coronal Mass Ejection - Another type of solar event is called a "coronal mass ejection" - a huge, balloon-shaped burst of solar plasma that moves along the Sun's magnetic field lines and release s up to 220 billion pounds (100 billion kg) of plasma at temperatures up to tens of millions of degrees Fahrenheit. Recent measurements have shown they now travel into space faster than before - possibly indicating a greater level of energy and force behind their ejection.
(2) From Pluto - Pluto has been heading (in its normal orbit) away from the sun since 1989. And yet, a funny thing is that its atmospheric pressure has increased 300% since 1989. In spite of very low temperatures at Pluto, so far in space from the Sun, its atmosphere is warming.
(3) From Neptune and Uranus - When the interstellar probe Voyager passed Neptune, it recorded Neptune's magnetic field was offset 50% on its axis, suggesting its poles had shifted in the last 100 years. Voyager also found that the magnetic field of Uranus was offset by 60%, suggesting another pole shift. Are those shifts unrelated to the increased intensity of the Sun's magnetic field? Measurements from 1996 to 2002 show Neptune is 40% brighter in the infrared wavelength and some cloud bands in its atmosphere are 100% brighter. Neptune's atmosphere seems to be changing greatly and quickly, in recent years.
(4) From Jupiter - In addition to the items noted in the report this thread began with; the magnetic field of Jupiter has increased 200%. Along with this change, a tube of plasma (highly energized particles) has formed between Jupiter and its moon Io, with a strength of 1 million amperes. There are no astronomical references to this observation until very recently.
<(5) From Mars - In addition to the items noted in the report this thread began with; the density of the Martian atmosphere increased 200% between the 1970s and 1999; the ozone decreased (like Earth's?); there are more clouds (more land-locked water is vaporizing?) and some features on its ice caps have eroded 50% (since 1999). NASA scientists admit that "Mars may be in the midst of a profound climate change".[Should we ask if NASA helped General Motors set up a SUV test facility up there?]
(6) From The Moon - Since the 1960s, the moon has started to form an atmosphere of sodium and potassium compounds. Those compounds were probably always present in the Moon's crust, but something recent has caused changes (energy?) to release them into the low gravity around the Moon.
It seems increasingly clear to me, global warming is part of solar system-wide changes related to the Sun. And, short of moving Earth to the orbit of another sun, there is not a dam thing we can do about it, other than adapt to it, no matter how much warmer the climate of Earth becomes.
For those girlie-men out there, that's a really scary thought because they expect the nanny-state politicians to tell them they can prevent anything adverse from ever happening, like Gods - if only we let them take something from someone and give it to someone else. Therefore, it is necessary, for the nanny-state politicians to give the current politicized excuse for global warming. It helps justify their political existence; just as it provides a convenient excuse for expanding global one-world government agendas.
If the natural global warming trend is long term and inclined to become too extreme for us, then maybe the space program is necessary. It can help our descendants, in the next 1 or 2 thousand years, move to a temporary galactic Florida, until Earth returns to an energy state where God can bless it again with humans.
Meanwhile, get back into your SUVs, keep the air conditioner running, and wait. Eventually we will have a paradigm shift in the scientific community, which will claim "Eureka", with all I have just told you. It's the Sun stupid.
Hopefully, by then, our technology or our spirit will have advanced and everyone can say "Scottie" or "Mom" or "Jesus" "Beam me up".
Outstanding. Thank you very much. I hope Freepers will send this link to every teacher they know and to every talk show host.
