Why did the mainstream media over look this? The entire world has been discussing the myth of man-made global warming on Earth, yet NASA and MIT just SIT on this explosive revelation, and SAY NOTHING???

Notice how politically-correct environmentalists TRY to explain this away. But the science doesn't lie. Clearly the sun has put out increased solar energy. The effect is there, even if we missed it.

If the sun is causing global warming on Pluto, Mars, and Neptune (Neptune's moon Triton where it was detected), then the sun is causing a far greater effect on Earth -- because Earth is much closer and the sun's effect is much stronger on Earth than on more-distant planets.

This is absolute proof positive that there is NO man-made global warming. Global warming theories predict temperature increases 5 to 10 times greater than what we are actually observing. There is no room for both a warmer sun and man-made effects in the comparatively TINY changes we are actually seeing, far less than the theories predict.

This looks like it comes from 2002

"three-fold increase in the planet's atmospheric pressure"

Pluto is no longer a planet.

I wish I were the Oscar presenter. When Glore comes on the stage I would congratulatd him and as he steps close I would bounce that statue offn his shoulder pimple that is impersonating as a head/brain pan!

How can it not be man-made? Global warming only exists because of evil white Republican capitalists.

I bet its caused by all of the pollution from our SUVs drifting through space and accumulating in Pluto's atmosphere.

Quick, someone call Algore... he needs to make a documentary on space pollution and the "Solar System Warming" epidemic.

All the studies show its too late for us... but, by God, we can still save Pluto!

Solar System Warming!

On Mars, it's probably because of all those Rovers roving. Pluto? Maybe the probe got too close?

Daily Policy Digest: MARS IS WARMING

National Center for Policy Analysis ^ | January 10, 2006 | National Center for Policy Analysis
The planet Mars is undergoing significant global warming which supports many climatologists' claims that the Earth's modest warming during the past century is due to a recent upsurge in solar energy, says James M. Taylor, of the Heartland Institute. For three Mars summers, deposits of frozen carbon dioxide near the planet's south pole have shrunk from the previous year's size, suggesting a climate change in progress, says Taylor. Furthermore, documented changes from 1999 to 2005 show that Mars' climate is presently warmer, and perhaps getting warmer still, than it was several decades or centuries ago. But there are not a...

[SNIP] Among the findings attributed to MGS [the Mars Global Surveyor], are -- [snip] Data show that the south polar ice cap seems to be shrinking each year, leading some planetary scientists to suggest THAT MARS IS UNDERGOING GLOBAL WARMING, MUCH AS MANY BELIEVE THAT EARTH may be experiencing. If so, this is a very interesting finding, because Mars does not have any artificial pollution to contribute to global warming. [Emphasis added]

Did youse all read the article?
"we know the sun's output is much too steady to be changing the temperature of Pluto."
They attribute the warming mostly to Pluto's orbit.

The Sun can't be causing it. It has to be the SUV's that the Plutoians are driving!!!! /sarcasm

It's not warming, it's just hot under the collar because it's been dissed.

Mars is warming.

Pluto is warming.

Earth is warming.

Darned martians should stop driving SUVs.

They attribute the warming mostly to Pluto's orbit.

Oh, I am sure they will try to squirm out of it. However, read the REST of the article. The 3-fold increase in atmospheric pressure came as a total SURPRISE to the MIT Astronomers. They already knew Pluto's orbit. They had already calculated the orbit, and anticipated the effects they were looking for (as a benchmark during the observation). These experienced MIT Astronomers had already calculated that a COOLING effect should have resulted from the orbit and distance from the sun.

These experienced astronomers were SURPRISED by the results.

So, no, you cannot explain away these results, as much as the gullible and foolish will fall for the nonsense from the environazis.

The only thing that can account for simultaneous warming on Mars, Earth, Pluto, and Neptune's moon Triton is THE SUN.

But more to the point, if people have to STRAIN and twist this hard to stick with their global warming hysteria hypothesis, could it be that the GWHH is simply WRONG? A hypothesis that needs to be defended with so many gyrations is probably just UNTRUE.

Also note that the increase may come at a wavelength we are not looking for. It may be an increase in X-Rays or infrared or microwave frequencies, all of which are absorbed by our atmosphere.

So here it is, barely a year after we launch a probe to enter Pluto, and now, in anticipation, Pluto is getting hot and bothered, yet we claim it's NOT man-made. I beg to differ....

When you're as cold as Pluto, ANYTHING is considered warming.........

[Me} Oh, yes, it is! The Earth is much closer to the sun than Pluto or Neptune or even Mars. The power of solar radiation increases with the SQUARE of distance.

If the increase in solar radiation is sufficient to cause a 3-fold increase in atmospheric temperature on Pluto, at the enormous distance of Pluto's orbit, then it is vastly more powerful on Earth.

Because the Earth is already warming at only about 1/5th to 1/10th of what the Global Warming Hysteria Hypothesis (GWHH) models predict, there is not enough warming to be caused by BOTH the sun AND man-made activities.
