New evidence proves existence of space wind

from trueactivist.com: Scientists have revealed new evidence of space wind, confirming a theory proposed 20 years ago. ‘Plasmaspheric wind’ is an elusive phenomenon and its existence helps scientists understand how the atmosphere protects us from violent solar winds.

Proof of space wind was uncovered in a study in European Geosciences Union journal Annales Geophysicae. The so-called ‘plasmaspheric wind’ is actually created by the Earth. Essentially, an imbalance between centrifugal and pressure forces and gravitational pull causes the steady flow of ionized particles from inside the atmosphere to the magnetosphere.

The magnetosphere is the region of space surrounding the earth that is governed by the planet’s magnetic field.

“After long scrutiny of the data, there it was, a slow but steady wind, releasing about 1 kg of plasma every second into the outer magnetosphere: this corresponds to almost 90 tons every day,” said Dr Iannis Dandouras, author of the study. He added the discovery was “one of the nicest surprises I’ve ever had.”

From the data, Dandourus calculated that the winds carry plasma (superheated gas) a day from the lower atmosphere into the magnetosphere at speeds of some 5,000 kilometers per hour.


Dandourus collated data from the EU Space Agency’s Cluster mission which was launched back in 2000. The Cluster mission is made up of four satellites that monitor the relationship between the Earth’s magnetosphere and solar winds.

The study will help scientists increase their understanding of how different layers of the Earth’s atmosphere interact with each other and protect the planet from solar winds. Furthermore, the findings indicate that other planets and celestial bodies that have similar atmospheres and rotations should also generate ‘plasmasphereic wind.’

The violent solar winds composed of charged particles that are ejected from the Sun would be quite deadly to Earth’s inhabitants if it were not for the Earth’s atmosphere and magnetic field. The two work in tandem to block x-rays, ultraviolet radiation and charged particles from reaching the planet’s surface.

“[The discovery] shows how interconnected different layers of the atmosphere are in protecting Earth from solar wind,” says Dr David Neudegg from the Bureau of Meteorology’s Ionospheric Prediction Service, which monitors space weather.

Researchers first proposed the idea of the existence of space wind flowing from the lower atmosphere into the magnetosphere 20 years ago, but were unable to prove their theories.

capt. kirk wakes up the discovery space shuttle crew

from cnn: At the intersection of science-fiction and science-fact was William Shatner on Monday. As James T. Kirk, the fictional captain of the Starship Enterprise, Shatner voiced the opening credits of the original "Star Trek" TV series and several movies since 1966. The 79-year-old actor reprised his role to wake up the crew of the space shuttle Discovery at 3:23 a.m. ET Monday. "Space, the final frontier. These have been the voyages of the space shuttle Discovery. Her 30-year mission: To seek out new science. To build new outposts. To bring nations together on the final frontier. To boldly go, and do, what no spacecraft has done before," Shatner said over the "Theme from Star Trek." This is the spacecraft's final scheduled mission. It has made 39 flights and 13 journeys to the international space station. Discovery undocked from the space station for the final time at 8:37 a.m., according to NASA, in preparation for its flight home. Discovery is scheduled to land at Florida's Kennedy Space Center shortly before noon Wednesday - one day later than originally scheduled. The nearly three-decade shuttle program is scheduled to end later this year.

French astrophotographer, Thierry Legault (pictured), captures images at 10 fps and plays back video at 25 fps of Discovery docked at the International Space Station (ISS). It's excellent video. Mission STS-133 is the final shuttle flight for Discovery. The video was taken on February 28th 2011 at 17:58UT from the area of Weimar, Germany.

challenger: 'obviously, a major malfunction'

In observance of the 25th anniversary of the Shuttle Challenger disaster, the words of NASA public relations officer Steve Nesbitt just over a minute after launch, seem etched on people's minds, "obviously, a major malfunction". CNN Live coverage from that fateful day January 28, 1986, can be viewed here. Richard C Cook, author of Challenger Revealed, recounts the O-Ring issue and Morton Thiokol's reservations in a, "Lew Rockwell article," which recaps the mainstream media message on the disaster. Cook issued a memo six months prior with his safety concerns, when contractors related to him shortly after his arrival at NASA, they held their breath with every launch because of deficiencies in the design of the O-Rings and especially at cold temperatures. There is another message implicit in the event, however.

It's the hidden meaning of the names of the space shuttles. "A Colombian Enterprise to Endeavor for the Discovery of Atlantis... and all Challengers shall be destroyed," taken from the late William Cooper's writings, which can be read here. Cooper believed it's the symbolic language of the Illuminati.

The late David J Meyer, a minister who warned about dangers of the occult and secret societies, is prescient in this January 1995 Last Trumpet Newsletter:

"I would like to mention that the program of the Illuminati is revealed in the names of the space shuttles. The United States used to have six but now has five space shuttles. The names of these are: 1. Columbia, 2. Enterprise, 3. Endeavor, 4. Discovery, 5. Atlantis. If we take that exact order, we will find that a message is formed.

We know that the name Columbia is taken from the Washington D.C. or District of Columbia, where the Illuminati is actively utilizing the the United States Government for its own purposes. Enterprise is the name given to the plan to bring forth the new world government. Endeavor is the labor required by the Illuminists to bring forth the New World Order. Discovery is the discovery of the New Empire that is to be brought forth from the ashes of the old. Atlantis is the name given to the New Empire. The legend of the lost continent of Atlantis reveals that it was a Socialist Superstate that controlled ancient Europe. It is the Illuminists who are trying to bring forth a New Atlantis, which is to rise again.

If we take these names of the space shuttles in order, we come up with an interesting sentence as follows: Columbia in a great Enterprise will Endeavor to Discover Atlantis. It is interesting that the shuttle named "Challenger" was destroyed! The conspirators love to speak and communicate in secret or cryptic language, but God reveals all of their secrets."

Are the shuttle's names used in 'twilite' (or twilight) language to influence us? In the video, "Unholy Alliance," a strong case builds on the interpretation provided by Cooper and Meyer. "The ENTERPRISE of the United States (COLUMBIA), shall be destroyed after completing its mission. CHALLENGERs shall be destroyed before completing their mission and replaced by our last British led ENDEAVOUR, for the DISCOVERY of ATLANTIS." It certainly seems possible, "..apparent meaning of a word or phrase that changes once one learns its meaning,” the definition provided in the video of twilite language is at work. Are we on the last leg of a course directly to a a socialist superstate--a new Atlantis?
