2012 Hype or Hope?  End of the world or new era? Get the facts and decide for yourself!

Say what? This is about the third commentary in a row regarding sun spots which I see potentially paying a major role on earth life, not just in 2012, but into the future. Helioseismology is the study of the propagation of pressure waves in the Sun. Unlike seismic waves on earth, solar waves have practically no shear component. Solar pressure waves are generated by the turbulence in the convection zone, near the surface of the sun, and certain frequencies are amplified by constructive interference. English please!

Since I have been writing much about the intensity of sun spots at the low end of the eleven year cycle and with the maximum activity scheduled for 2012, is there a correlation from low cycle to high cycle. In other words, just because we’ve seen unusually high activity at a low cycle (30-50% more) does that necessarily translate into higher than normal levels when 2012 shows up?

How well can we predict sun spots in the future?

I have to turn to the experts who have toiled for decades and even centuries. Sun spot experts like Mausumi Dikpati, Peter Gilman, and Giuliani de Toma (not household names) feel and say that the 2012 maximum period will be 30-50% higher as well. If they are accurate, we could see many of our spy satelittes wipes out or hindered, power systems temporarily shut down, and a disruption of communications beyond what we might understand.

We’re talking serious galactic warming!

More than ten “X” flares billowed forth from the sun in 2005 (X being the most powerful). Few people know that. Fewer people know where Boina, Ethiopia is located. But here’s some information that might be of interest. News Flash : Ethiopia Is Being Split!

Ethiopian and American researchers have observed a fissure in a desert in the remote northeast that could be the birth of a new ocean basin. Researchers have been observing the 37-mile long fissure since it split open. The fissure, now 13 feet wide and this is unprecedented in scientific history. What’s it mean? Is there a relationship between the solar bursts? We don’t know. There’s much we don’t know!
And we must find harmonic balance.

It’s about time we got serious about finding out what we’re doing to our home: planet earth.
