Global Warming – The Untold Part of The Story…

The Helium content in the sun has a major fluctuation period at 100,000 years as is visible from the last 650,000 years of ice core records taken from Antarctica.  This heating / cooling cycle works like a candle after the heart burrows itself into wax creating a cavity.  When this cavity becomes deeper the flame starts flickering at a steady frequency.  The reason is a periodic lack of oxygen that prevents the wax from burning properly.  A large flame forms when oxygen is readily available and the heated air expands the same time.  The oxygen is quickly consumed und the flame starts dying while the hot air raises up.  The flame is now almost gone but oxygen can again reach the heart of the candle and the cycle begins again. 

As said above our Sun is a Hydrogen fusion reactor that is held together by her own gravity converting Hydrogen to Helium at a steady pace.  However, the Helium is also fuel for yet another very hot fusion reaction but the concentration of the Helium must first reach a certain level, density and temperature before it can ignite.  That happens at least once in each 100,000 years.  This happened last time some 15,000 years ago and Helium is still fusing and the earth is heating up.  It appears that this Heliun fusion reaction might last 30-40,000 years and dies away.

In the next phase the the ice cap above Greenland becomes unstable and “falls” more or less orderly way into North Atlantic and with that the level of all oceans raise 6-8 meters.  With that the earth’s ability to absorb heat from the Sun gets diminished as more of the radiation from the Sun gets reflected away from the larger water surface.  Another perhaps even more important factor comes to play simultaneously as the now the cooler oceans can absorb more gases from the atmosphere, including all greenhouse gases. The earth starts cooling down.  Unfortunately the Helium reaction in the Sun may not be over yet and soon enough like 5 to 10,000 years later the temperature of the earth starts going up again.  The ice cap on Greenland has not thickened that much as of yet and depending on how long the heating continues a small part of Antarctica, about equal in size with Greenland is becoming also unstable.  If that ice cap section follows the path of Greenland we get yet an added 6 meters into Ocean level.  However, with this we have now enough fresh cold water in oceans to cool them down even more and that starts clearing the atmosphere from the remaining greenhouse gases.  With this going on the earth is in “free fall” to another deep freeze with ocean level dropping some 120 meters below the present.  It would go even further but now the 100,000 cycle is complete and the Sun has enough Helium that ignites again.

As recently as only 20,000 years ago the earth was at the bottom of the last “deep freeze” and at that time the water line was low enough to provide a “thousand mile wide highway” for everything to move freely between Alaska and Siberia. 

We know that we can do plenty to reduce the extremes already with our current knowledge and perhaps later we can even control this phenomena equally like we have built dams on rivers to tame the floods and to provide water over the dry season.  The process is in principle similar, it only requires taming the heat.  This will involve water, ice, plants and atmosphere, all in all it is a little more complex than a river dam but it can be done if we have the political will to do it.  But do we really have a choice – the alternative is a global war over resources and survival of the fittest! (theory by M&M, what we can do and should do is shown at http://www.galacticwind.com/indwarm.html ) 

Liquid Coal is off the Table – Big Oil has Won!

Did somebody forget that our airplanes need fuel in the future?  Today the kerosene that we use contains all kinds of chemicals that will not burn fully in a jet engine.  With decades of flying this stuff is now present in every corner of the planet and all of it’s oceans.  

Perhaps none of you have ever talked someone living and having a garden next to a busy airport (take your Bose with you if you plan to go and check).   

If we are honest with our talk about clean air we should use only sythetic fuels in our airplanes until we figure out how to control the gravity (we have some ideas).   The liquid coal or natural gas are the cleanest synthetic fuels we can have.  When correctly done these fuels have a precise chemical composition, no impurities at all and the jet engine emits only CO2 and water vapor, see  www.syntroleum.com/Video/AF%20B52%20Fuel%20Test.wmv.

It is time for all involved and serious about global warming to realize that liquid fuels made of organic materials like coal are a necessity for us.  There is much more to this as you can find out if you follow the link shown later below.   The cheap demagogy against liquid coal that is used in this context is a disgrace.  While this demagogy is effective in getting votes from the least educated it will backfire on due time (Hitler was better in all demagogy anyhow).  

The recently promoted and established Ethanol insustry in the USA is a scam that is starting to show some stress signs.  For more go and check the price of a gallon of milk, a loaf of bread and a pound of meat in your grocery store - and do not forget the commodity prices either.

How come, ethanol is OK but liquid coal is not?  The commonly held claims do not hold water.   The ferocity of the fight against liquid coal in the political theatre including MoveOn and many other organizations indicate that somewhere real money pouring in.  The most obvious party supporting this “kill the liquid coal” movement is the Big Oil and it’s two brainchildren: Detroit and this new Ethanol industry.   We have been drinking ethanol in one form or the other for thousands of years and we have known equally long that this drink can support burning at elevated cocentrations.   A good drink and the same time one of the best selling tools to create a false promise that ethanol could solve our fuel problems.  

Unfortunately, we do not have the required excess arable land to take us to this mirage of never never land.   The 15% target as fuel for automobiles is BS and will die within a decade or two depending on how long the tax payers are willing to chip in.   

The Big Oil understands this all better than anybody else.  This would in any case fit perfectly into their long term strategy.   For them “helping” the Ethanol Industry is a perfect  delay tactic as they need all the time against liquid coal they can get.  This Ethanol nonsense was anyhow free for them as the tax payers picked the tab.   

In the real world Ethanol is not to be taken seriously as a solution to our energy problems. The Big Oil knew this from the beginning - for them the days of the Ethanol fuel ndustry were numbered before it was even born.  Fuel Ethanol will create a huge moral problem and solving that will keep our government busy for a long time.   

The Big Oil may not be the guilty here,  provided that they did not participate in plans that converted our high schools to subsidized day care centers for our teenagers.   When they graduate most of them can not read, write nor do math at sufficient level to study in a college or university without remedial courses. 

Perhaps you still wonder why during the past few decades oil companies have not built new oil refineries in the USA.   The Big Oil recognized the inevitable the arrival of an electric car already decades ago.   The last hurdle was the battery but that hurdle is now finally in history.   Detroit faught valiantly all the way against this electric thing but it’s over and they lost.   Detroit would never have built an electric car – it is too simple, too durable and especially too cheap when mass produced in less than a few years from now!   It does not use gas either and here Detroit and the Big Oil had a love affair.   For more, see http://www.galacticwind.com/eternity/Future.htm

In reality the Big Oil will not loose anything.   We still need all the oil they can find as is explained in details on the above referred galacticwind web site.  

Unfortunately the meantime, the highly frustrated Congress appears not to understand large numbers any more, as someone there figured out that we must tax Big Oil for their recent totslly unjustified, huge profits.   Relatively speaking there is nothing big in these profits but that seem to be too complex issue today.   This is insane, counterproductive and we will pay a price for this stupidity - this also will be discussed soon more in another Blog by the Surfer from Terrastan, stay tuned.

NOTE 1:  The Big Oil does not own any of the liquid coal nor closely related technologies.   These belong to tiny enterprises that have been fighting for decades to survive against the Big Oil and the enormous odds.   The Big Oil has kept the price of oil low “for us” and of course that is what we want.   But they had no goodwill in their mind, one of their targets was these small enterprises working on liquid fuel technologioes.  They wanted them out and dead to pick what they wanted from their ashes – like ripe plums.   As indicated above the Big Oil has attracted some of the smartest people on the planet to their ranks now for over 100 years and they still have their final strategy intact and in place.  

Was this the Largest Asteroid Ever to Hit Earth?

The largest asteroid crater that the science has so far confirmed is one mile under ice in Antarctica and has a crater diameter of 480 km.  The asteroid itself was estimated to have had a diameter of 45 km.  The “landing” of this ”space ship” happened perhaosaccording to the report about 250 million years ago and at arrival time it wiped out 90% of all life forms on our planet.

So what do we say then about a crater that has a diameter of 600 km?   This crater requires that the asteroid itself has a diameter of about 70 km (45 miles).   The proof for this “landing” is exactly what we believe to have.    If not an asteroid impact crater - then we have found a huge atom smasher dating back a few hundred million of years. 

We have waited comments from scientists for about half a year but this waiting time is now enough.   We will put this all in the open for anyone to ponder as soon as we have the text in more readable english on our site www.galacticwind.com - stay tuned, the link on the site gets soon active.   The crater is accessibbe and shows some intersting mineral properties and even mining activities close to the rim and some radials but nothing in the middle – and we can understand that too.
