Whoops!
The Earth's atmosphere is far bigger than we had realized, scientists have announced. The outermost part of our atmosphere reaches nearly twice as far as the Moon and is about 50 times as big as our own planet, new research has shown. The Moon flies through Earths atmosphere, says Igor Baliukin of Russias Space Research Institute, lead author of the paper presenting the results. We were not aware of it until we dusted off observations made over two decades ago by the SOHO spacecraft.
At the boundary of own atmosphere and outer space, there is a cloud of hydrogen atoms that scientists refer to as the geocorona. One of the instruments on the SOHO spacecraft found the signature of that border, allowing it to detect exactly where it is. That can only be done at certain times, and the new research is the result of fortunate timing that allowed the spacecraft to spot the edge.
Well, as Hamlet says, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." For decades now the anti-industrial Left has been trying to convince us that the atmospheric science is settled -- that the planet is either getting hotter, colder, or both, or neither, or something -- and therefore we should accept their cocksure-yet-crackpot notions in order to give up our carbon-based lifestyles (never mind that we ourselves are carbon-based life forms; the Left is essentially a suicide cult), become vegans, murder our children, and die.
Now along comes this new discovery, and suddenly it's plain to see that there's still much so we don't know about just about everything.

It makes sense. The moon and atmosphere are both within the active gravitational field of earth.
The science is settled. Heh.
Someone is missing a marketing opportunity. I’ve never seen a Van Allen belt sold in a clothing store.
Just read an item here at FR within the past week or so that indicated the Moon was coming closer to Earth.
Or... Did the item say it was moving further away???
I really don’t recall, now.
Ed Wood had this all figured out decades ago:
Colonel Tom Edwards:
Why, a particle of sunlight can’t even be seen or measured.
Eros:
Can you see or measure an atom? Yet you can explode one. A ray of sunlight is made up of many atoms.
Jeff Trent:
So what if we do develop this Solaranite bomb? We’d be even a stronger nation than now.
Eros:
“Stronger.” You see? You see? Your stupid minds! Stupid! Stupid!

Before this discovery, the science was settled.

Well, as Hamlet says, “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.”
And now we know some of the rest of the stroy:
The moon orbits inside the Earth’s atmosphere
Climate is a product of the forces of the atmosphere
Weather is the local expression of those forces.
The moon effects Earth’s weather.
QED
As any one who has fished for a living over decades could have told you.
polar bear population explosion - so holding baby bears hostage isnt going to work anymore. Sorry. Try seals. More bears mean less seals. So seals are the in hostages nowadays.
Eskimos eat seals ...
Ok, I’m sold.
Sadly, that’s the majority’s opinion.
The Tesla guy has.
Holy carbon reductions, Batman! So if we were to recalculate the percentage ... goooooooooal! We did it!
“Observational experience.”
From inside your cave?
No, my starship...
Thanks E. Pluribus Unum. And the planets have tails.

And the moon effects human behavior as any policeman will tell you.
