Supermoon on June 23, 2013: Don't Fear the Supermoon, NASA Says!

Don't fear the 'Supermoon". There is no reason for anybody to dread the largest full moon of 2013, known as the "supermoon," a NASA scientist says.

On Sunday (June 23), the moon will reach perigee — the closest point to Earth in the rocky satellite's orbit around the planet. Although some people have suggested that the "supermoon"  phenomenon may be associated with increased risk of events such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, cause natural disasters and wreak havoc on the tides, but there is scant evidence in support of those claims, NASA assures.

NASA planetary geologist Noah Petro said that while the tides might be slightly higher because of the moon's close approach, it won't make a noticeable difference for the average observer.

 

Certain prognosticators have moved the goalposts to within 1 or 2 weeks of a "supermoon" to suggest a causal relationship with specific natural disasters.

"Supermoons" that have "Coincided" with Natural Disasters

Devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit Indonesia on Dec. 26, 2004 occurred about two weeks prior to a "supermoon" on Jan. 10, 2005.

"Supermoon" occurred on Jan. 30, 2010, about two weeks after the catastrophic earthquake that hit Haiti on Jan. 12, 2010.

Catastrophic earthquake and tsunami struck Japan on March 11, 2011 occurred about one week prior to the "supermoon" on March 19, 2011

"Supermoon" occurred on Feb. 21, 2011 just before the devastating earthquake that hit Christchurch, New Zealand on Feb. 22, 2011.

Perexusrex: Will this Sunday’s supermoon bring another damaging quake? Due to another CME and other solar activity upon the sun, when combined with Sunday’s "supermoon", an earthquake watch of 7.0 or greater magnitude is in effect from now until June 25th, 2013.

Massive eruption and shock wave at Popocatépetl Volcano - June 19, 2013 (Video)

Mexico’s active Popocatepetl volcano has registered a massive explosion spewing ash and incandescent rock almost 4 kilometers high.

Authorities have warned that winds could blow the ash cloud as far away as Mexico City. Inhabitants of villages up to 25 kilometers from Popocatepetl (colloquially known as ‘Don Popo’) rushed out of their houses when the massive explosion reverberated through their homes. 

Esther Matinez, resident of Amecameca municipality, told Mexican publication La Jornada that the blast was like a rocket explosion. Around 4.5 million people live within a 50-kilometer radius of the active volcano, 650,000 of whom are considered to be at high risk.

According to authorities in the state of Puebla, where the second-tallest volcano in Mexico is located, the incandescent fragments released in the blast fell as far as 2 kilometers from the crater. Director of Puebla’s Civil Protection department Jesus Morales said that burning rocks sparked small fires around the volcano. 

“There were clouds at the time of the eruption so it was possible to observe the large shock wave accompanied by a plume of ash and incandescent material,” Morales said.

Mexico's National Center for Prevention of Disasters (Cenapred) said the volcano had returned to its previous activity level, and that the volcanic alert level would remain at ‘yellow phase two.’ In addition, volcanic ash that was blown up to 4 kilometers into the air could be shifted by wind currents and then fall on Puebla, or even as far away as Mexico City, Cenapred warned.

Popocatepetl had previously been in phase two after breaking the record for the most volcanic emissions in one day – the 5,452 –meter-tall giant gave off 300 emissions in just one day in May.

In December 2000, the volcano registered one of its largest eruptions in recent history, prompting the mass evacuation of the surrounding countryside. The name Popocatepetl originates from the native Mexican Nahuatl language and means ‘smoking mountain.’ RT

Tornadic waterspout rips through the South of France - June 9, 2013

A natural phenomenon more common for America, a tornado, has hit the South of France shocking locals and holidaymakers on the Côte d'Azur, the Mediterranean coastline.

As thousands in Central Europe are struggling to cope with devastating floods which have already claimed the lives of at least 21 people, a tornado ripped through the French Riviera on Sunday morning.

The violently rotating column of air and water formed off the coast not far from popular resort towns of Cannes and Nice.

The phenomenon was observed from the Cagnes-sur-Mer commune in southeastern France, rising off to Villeneuve-Loubet and Antibes, reports Nicematin.com. RT

The helical model - our Galaxy is a vortex

Our Galaxy is a Vortex.

Notes on the video below:

The Milky Way

1. The Milky Way itself travels through space at appr. 600 km/s.
2. The image used for texturing the Milky Way is NOT a picture of the 3. Milky Way. There are no pictures of the outside of the Milky Way.  4. There could either be a black hole or a central sun in the center of the Milky Way. I went with the texture image and made it shine.
5. A complete revolution around the galaxy takes 226 million years.
6. Do not confuse the Galactic Plane with the Galactic Equator: the Sun never "crosses" the Galactic Equator because the Sun is always on the Galactic Equator, by definition.

Precession Cycle

1. One precession cycle takes 25,920 years.
2. Since one revolution takes 226 mln years, this would mean that there are appr. 8692 precessional cycles in one revolution. In this animation there are only 60.

Scale and Distance

1. The Sun is 109 times bigger than the Earth. If this animation was to scale, the planets would be invisible.    2. Our Solar System should be a gazillion times smaller compared to the Milky Way. If this animation was to scale, you could not see the Solar System, the Sun or any of the planets.
3. The software used to create this animation is unable to work with extreme sizes and distances. djsadhu.com

Analysis of the major Sea Of Okhotsk Earthquakes and Planetary Symmetry 2012-13.

Research and analysis of the theoretical 188.5 Earthquake cycle and its relationship with planets inside our solar system. has found some interesting aspects with the Saturn and Jupiter retrograde cycles.

The synodic period for Saturn is 378 days.

Strange Reality: Physics of the Hollow Earth

While Man has spared no expense to explore the Heavens, we know precious little about what's right beneath our feet. The beginnings to unlocking that mystery starts with the discussion of whether the Earth is solid or hollow.

If it's hollow, as many physicists believe, that fact has profound implications for our future. The key to endless energy may be in that void in the center of the planet.

Lost civilizations may be down there, is there a vast, secret, long-forgotten cave system through the Earth? Could this labyrinth still be in use, or capable of use?

A simple experiment (Watch video 2) makes a great argument for hollow Earth theory.

The hollow Earth is not possible in today's understanding of physical so called laws. Physics today requires gravity to be the main force. In the the electromagnetic universe theory electromagnetism is the main force in the universe.

So in this model the centrifugal forces separate the earth through densities giving a hollow core. However, the other portion of the Earth and it's atmosphere would be mainly influence by electrostatic attraction and pulling in matter from outer space, thus explaining our atmosphere being lighter in mass, yet still existing in the outer sphere of the planet.

What exactly is down there?
