Scientist: Forget Global Warming, Prepare for New Ice Age- Do you trust MAN or GOD?

Sunspot activity has not resumed up after hitting an 11-year low in March last year, raising fears that — far from warming — the globe is about to return to an Ice Age, says an Australian-American scientist.

Physicist Phil Chapman, the first native-born Australian to become an astronaut with NASA [he became an American citizen to join up, though he never went into space], said pictures from the U.S. Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) showed no spots on the sun.

He said the world cooled quickly between January last year and January this year, by about 0.7 degrees Centigrade.

Susnpots to increase 100% the biggest in recorded history in 2012

Your right, we SHOULD be getting colder. but we are not, and it is due to human activity. We are heating the planet up much faster than it is cooling.

Solar prominence Photo Mugs

Solar prominence. Ultraviolet SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) satellite image of a solar prominence (bottom left). The prominence is erupting from the chromosphere (orange), which lies above the Suns visible surface. Prominences are dense clouds of plasma, or ionised gas, in the Suns outer layer, the corona. They are typically at temperatures of 60, 000 Kelvin, much cooler than the sever...

Comet C/2001 Q4 Photo Mugs

Comet C/2001 Q4 on 7 May 2004, the day after it passed closest to the Earth. Q4 reached perihelion (closest point to the Sun) just over a week later, on the 15 May. A comet is a ball of water ice and dust, which has a highly elliptical orbit around the Sun. As comets approach the Sun, they develop a tail of vaporised gas and dust that always points away from the Sun due to the solar wind. This com...

Comet McNaught, 19th January 2007 Photo Mugs

Comet McNaught. This comet, also known as C/2006 P1, was the brightest to appear in the sky since Ikeya-Seki in 1965. Due to its proximity to the Sun it could only be seen at dusk. It was visible in the Northern Hemisphere until 13th January 2007, when it passed the Sun and became a Southern Hemisphere object. It attained a maximum brightness of magnitude -6 around 14th January. The tail is formed...

Polarimetric Studies of the Solar Atmosphere

$125.85

This book describes the design and development of an instrument called the Solar Vector Magnetograph or SVM. This instrument maps the magnetic field of the solar active regions. The magnetic field of solar active regions is responsible for the eruptive phenomena on the sun which expel large amounts of highenergy particles and radiation in the interplanetary space posing danger for human activities in space. The careful measurement of solar magnetic field is very important to track its evolution which may be useful for forecasting the solar eruptive events. The instrument SVM was developed by Dr. Sanjay Gosain during his Ph.D. at Udaipur Solar Observatory, India for which he received best thesis award by Astronomical Society of India. This book describes how the highcadence magnetic field measurements can be done by using a tunable FabryPerot etalon and a polarimeter. This book is useful for any solar astronomer who wishes to develop an instrument for measuring solar magnetic fields or wishes to understand how solar magnetic field is measured using Zeemaneffect diagnostics. The techniques of optical polarimetry is also discussed in depth.

Mount Wilson Observatory

$78.07

The Mount Wilson Observatory is an astronomical observatory in Los Angeles County, California. The MWO is located on Mount Wilson, a 5,715 foot (1,742 m) peak in the San Gabriel Mountains near Pasadena, northeast of Los Angeles.Thanks to the inversion layer that traps smog over Los Angeles, Mount Wilson has naturally steadier air than any other location in North America, making it ideal for astronomy and in particular for interferometry.The growth of greater Los Angeles has limited the ability of the observatory to engage in deep space astronomy, but it remains a productive center with many new and old instruments in use for astronomical research.

Solar Tower

$70.1

A solar tower is a structure used to support equipment for studying the sun, and is typically part of solar telescope designs. Solar towers are used to raise the observation equipment above the atmospheric disturbances caused by solar heating of the ground and the radiation of the heat into the atmosphere. Traditional observatories do not have to be placed high above ground level as they do most of their observation at night when ground radiation is at a minimum.The horizontal Snow solar observatory was built on Mount Wilson in 1904. It was soon found that heat radiation was disrupting observations. Almost as soon as the Snow Observatory opened, plans were started for a 60 foot tall tower that opened in 1908 followed by a 150 foot tower in 1912. The 60 foot tower is currently used to study helioseismology while the 150 foot tower is active in UCLAs Solar Cycle Program. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.
