Spaceweather.com for Halloween


SUNSPOT NUMBERS ARE BOUNCING BACK: After a two week decline, which reminded some observers of Solar Minimum, sunspot numbers are bouncing back. The emergence of multiple new sunspots on the solar disk plus a new farside sunspot rotating over the sun’s eastern limb is driving the sunspot number back up to 100. This is a normal fluctuation en route to Solar MaxSolar flare alerts: SMS Text

20 YEARS LATER, THE HALLOWEEN STORMS: Imagine waking up to this headline: “Half of Earth’s Satellites Lost!” Impossible?  It actually happened during the Great Halloween Storms of 2003.

Turn back the clock 20 years. Solar Cycle 23 was winding down, and space weather forecasters were talking about how quiet things would soon become. Suddenly, the sun unleashed two of the strongest solar flares of the Space Age–an X17 flare on Oct. 28 followed by an X10 on Oct 29, 2003. Both hurled fast CMEs directly toward Earth.

Traveling 2125 km/s and 1948 km/s, respectively, each CME reached Earth in less than a day, sparking extreme (G5) geomagnetic storms on Oct. 29, 30, and 31, 2003. Auroras descended as far south as Georgia, California, New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, and Oklahoma: photo gallery.

Onboard the International Space Station, astronauts took shelter in the hardened Zvezda service module to protect themselves from high energy particles. Meanwhile, airline pilots were frantically changing course. Almost every flight over Earth’s poles detoured to lower latitudes to avoid radiation, costing as much as $100,000 per flight. Many Earth-orbiting satellites experienced data outages, reboots and even unwanted thruster firings. Some operators simply gave up and turned their instruments off.

There’s a dawning awareness that something else important happened, too. Many of Earth’s satellites were “lost”–not destroyed, just misplaced. In a 2020 paper entitled “Flying Through Uncertainty,” USAF satellite operators recalled how “the majority of satellites (in low Earth orbit) were temporarily lost, requiring several days of around-the-clock work to reestablish their positions.”


Active sunspot 486 was the source of the 2003 Halloween storms

How did this happen? The Halloween storms pumped an extra 3 Terrawatts of power into Earth’s upper atmosphere. Geomagnetic heating puffed up the atmosphere, sharply increasing aerodynamic drag on satellites. Some satellites in low-Earth orbit found themselves off course by one to tens of kilometers.

Most satellite operators today have never experienced anything like the Halloween storms. That’s a problem because the number of objects they need to track has sharply increased. Since 2003, the population of active satellites has ballooned to more than 7,000, with an additional 20,000+ pieces of debris larger than 10 cm. Losing track of so many objects in such a congested environment could theoretically trigger a cascade of collisions, rendering low Earth orbit unusable for years following an extreme geomagnetic storm.

Now that’s scary.

Dear Elon and Starlink, @elonmusk ,

Happy Halloween! You need to know the positions of all of your satellites please.

Thanks. Your PIA bossy follower, @lisaktownsend13

This hit on Red 10 Planetary Earth mediated by Uranus

NOAA

A PURE SIGN WAVE IN THE MAGNETOSPHERE: In a quiet room, you can hear a pin drop. Norwegian citizen scientist Rob Stammes just heard a pin drop on Earth’s magnetic field.

“It was very quiet when it happened,” says Stammes, who runs a space weather observatory in Lofoten, Norway. On Oct. 17th, his magnetometer was monitoring Earth’s magnetic field as it does every night, and the instrument’s needle had settled itself into a straight line, indicating very low geomagnetic activity.  Suddenly, Earth’s magnetic field began to ring.

Planetary tone 10. 10 periods.

“A very stable ~25 second magnetic oscillation appeared in my recordings, and lasted for more than 20 minutes,” he says. “It was fantastic to see the magnetic field swing back and forth by about 0.1 degrees, peak to peak.”

This kind of pure tone is rare, but it has happened before. Researchers call it a “pulsation continuous” — or “Pc” for short. Pc waves are classified into 5 types depending on their period. The waves Stammes caught fall into category Pc3.

The “pin dropping” was a gentle gust of solar wind. Imagine blowing across a piece of paper, making it flutter with your breath. The solar wind can have a similar effect Earth’s magnetic field. Pc3 waves are essentially flutters propagating down the flanks of our planet’s magnetosphere excited by the breath of the sun.

Stammes is a longtime observer of Pc waves. Usually he catches them during Solar Minimum when “the room is quiet” for months at a time. “Recording one now so close to Solar Max is unexpected,” he says. “Lately, my magnetometer traces have been too noisy for such delicate waves–so it came a surprise!”

Pc3 waves, which can only be heard in moments of quiet, can also bring the quiet to an end. The oscillations sometimes flow all the way around Earth’s magnetic field and cause a “tearing instability” in our planet’s magnetic tail. This, in turn, sets the stage for magnetic reconnection and geomagnetic storms.

That didn’t happen on Oct. 17th, though. The pin dropped, the magnetosphere rang, and quiet resumed. Stammes is already listening for more. Stay tuned!

NASA is wrong or lying when that organization says there is no evidence that ET has reached Earth.

Dear Jack,

NASA is wrong or lying when that organization says there is no evidence that ET has reached Earth.

This analysis of metal spheres formed during the break-up and melting of an Interstellar Orion-type ET Probe (Brandenburg’s interpretation of evidence) containing a nuclear-powered energy source did not brake as it entered Earth’s atmosphere in 2014. NORAD tracked it and said it travelled much faster than a meteorite flying at terminal velocity.  It apparently broke up and melted one KM above the Pacific Ocean. The Navy successfully put down a magnetic dredge to pick up metal fragments, which were analyzed by a government lab and shared with Avi Loeb, who shared the analysis with John Brandenburg.

John has published a paper (in press) on that analysis and notes the metal sphere was challenging due to its Aluminum, Titanium, Iron, and Beryllium composition. The alloy resembled the technology used in spacecraft and aircraft landing gear.  The sphere also contained Uranium, Thorium, and Lithium, indicating the presence of a non-natural nuclear reactor.  Due to the absence of Nickel (Iron meteorites typically contain significant amounts of Nickel), and Iron isotopes not found in our Solar System, this metal has been linked to a high-tech spacecraft or probe coming to Earth to possibly inspect our planet for intelligent life.

This is a very big discovery, more important than Oumuamua.  NASA can no longer claim that evidence for ET has not reached Earth.

I’m doing some time tracking on the Maui Fires


The fires, which began on August 8, the day before Yellow 6 Star mediated by the Star time portal, struck hardest the historic resort town of Lahaina, on Maui’s western peninsula, reducing most of the town to ash and ruins. Approximately 115 people were killed in Lahaina by the smoke and flames or by drowning, making the wildfire one of the world’s deadliest on record.

This is Nick Sorter, trying to sort things out 😉 as a journalist in Maui. The Feds are ramping up there crawling the place, which is very telling. I’m sure it’s a SpecialOps deal.

My intuition is leaning toward the cause of the fires being a Draco incursion to nullify NINE generations of native earth knowledge from earth by destroying Lahaina. The Hawaiian culture was held there.

And/OR

The fires were caused by the sun due to a time distortion from Venus being right next to the sun at the time. Look at my Spaceweather.com post. Venus mediates the Hawaii time portal. All kinds of new strange things will happen on the planet as our timeline spiral shifts. This is timeline change, not climate change.

How could Draco get into the Blue Monkey time portal when they are BANNED in our system? Blue Monkey ~Yellow Star is mediated by Venus. Venus was right next to the sun on this day. I posted Spaceweather.com about it. NOAA is a federal astronomy site.

It is possible to use the energy of the sun to create a timeportal back door 🚪 when there is already a main portal (Blue Monkey near Hawaii) if the alignment is right with that planet. Nobody knows about this stuff. It’s ancient knowledge regarding time travel. The Draco are Red Dragon tribe and dying with Red Serpent because of nanites, and they are locked in our system by the GGLN. There is no tribe of time more ancient than the Red Dragon.

But I had a major Draco Dream and major event 2 nights before this happened that I still have not figured out. I was fine, and I’m always protected, but everything is pivoting, to be sure.

Synchronicity with the Head of Draco. Spaceweather.com


GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH (G2): Geomagnetic storms are possible on Aug. 1st when a CME is expected to hit Earth’s magnetic field. Minor G1-class storms are likely with a chance of escalating to category G2. The CME was hurled almost directly toward Earth by the eruption of a magnetic filament in the sun’s northern hemisphere on July 28th. Aurora alerts: SMS Text

Comet 12P is currently crossing the head of Draco not far from the north celestial pole. If you have a backyard telescope, take a look, and submit your images here.

This is a major synchronicity with the Tzolkin. Tomorrow is Red 12 Dragon, and we enter the N. Polar Zone. This is 1:1 exact synchronicity between 3D space and 4D Time.

BIG FARSIDE SUNSPOT: There’s a spot on the farside of the sun so large it is affecting the way the whole sun vibrates. Helioseismic echoes pinpoint the active region in the sun’s southern hemisphere not far behind the sun’s southeastern limb. It should rotate into view this weekend. Solar flare alerts: SMS Text

A FARSIDE CME JUST HIT SOLAR ORBITER: Two days ago, a bright CME rocketed away from the farside of the sun. Its plane-of-sky speed in SOHO coronagraph images exceeded 1,500 km/s (3.4 million mph):

If this CME had hit Earth, a strong (possibly severe) geomagnetic storm would have surely resulted. Instead, it flew in the opposite direction and hit Europe’s Solar Orbiter (SolO) spacecraft.

The CME reached SolO on July 26th (0200 UT), barely 32 hours after it left the sun. Considering that a typical CME would take two or three days to reach the spacecraft at its current location, a transit of only 32 hours confirms this CME was a fast-mover. (THE MAYAN NEW YEAR, WHITE 5 WIZARD)

This was definitely a big event,” says George Ho of the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab, co-principal investigator for the Energetic Particle Detector suite onboard Solar Orbiter. Ho checked the data right after the initial explosion on July 24th and saw a 10,000-fold increase of 50 MeV ions reaching the spacecraft. “This indicates a strong incoming interplanetary shock.”

This plot shows two waves of energetic particles washing over Solar Orbiter:


Above: Data from Solar Orbiter’s EPD/Electron-Proton Telescope (Principal Investigator Javier Pacheco from University of Alcala, Spain).

The first wave (yellow) was accelerated by whatever unseen explosion launched the CME. Traveling close to the speed of light, these particles reached the spacecraft soon after the blast. A second wave (blue) traveled with the CME itself and hit the spacecraft 30+ hours later.

“During the 1989 Quebec blackout, it was this type of shock-driven particle increase during the CME arrival that knocked off the power,” notes Ho.

Launched in Feb. 2020, Solar Orbiter is on a mission to study solar storms at point blank range. Mission accomplished. This storm actually swallowed the spacecraft. Mission scientists will analyze the data from this storm and others to improve future forecasts of space weather. Stay tuned.

Are they building a new LOC since Orion Group trashed the old one? We certainly need a new cosmic neutral zone, which is what the last one was. Remember Corey saying he couldn’t imagine the LOC being attacked? I’ll find the post.

SpaceX Punched a hole in the Psi Bank


Is that like punching a hole in a wall because they’re giving you a hard time? I’m bugging him too much. 😆 lol. I’m sick of all the fake Elon unverified accounts following me. It was 10 a day, and now I directly tweeted to him, asking that everyone on there be required to be verified. I don’t have time for this. It’s very controversial but all the spam and grifters on there are wasting time and $.

SPACEX JUST PUNCHED A HOLE IN THE IONOSPHERE: On the evening of July 19th, SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Sky watchers from southern California to Arizona witnessed a magnificent exhaust plume. At the San Francisco Volcanic Field north of Flagstaff, photographer Jeremy Perez saw something extra:

“After the rocket passed overhead, a red fluorescent glow expanded southward and crossed over the Milky Way,” says Perez. “It was visible for almost 20 minutes.”

The red glow is a sign that the rocket punched a hole in the ionosphere–something SpaceX and others have been doing for years. One famous example occured on August 25, 2017, when a Falcon 9 rocket carrying Taiwan’s FORMOSAT-5 satellite created a hole four times bigger than the state of California. On June 19, 2022, another Falcon 9 punched a hole over the east coast of the USA, sparking a display of red lights from New York to the Carolinas that many observers mistook for aurora borealis.

“This is a well studied phenomenon when rockets are burning their engines 200 to 300 km above Earth’s surface,” explains space physicist Jeff Baumgardner of Boston University. “The red glow appears when exhaust gasses from the rocket’s 2nd stage cause the ionosphere to recombine quickly.”

Rocket engines spray water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) into the ionosphere, quenching local ionization by as much as 70%. A complicated series of charge exchange reactions between oxygen ions (O+) and molecules from the rocket exhaust produce photons at a wavelength of 6300 Å–the same color as red auroras.


Above: Electron density maps show a hole in the ionosphere formed by a SpaceX rocket in 2017. [more]

“I reviewed footage from the July 19th launch,” says Baumgardner. “It shows the second stage engine burning at 286 km near the ionosphere’s F-region peak for that time of day. So, it is quite possible that an ionospheric ‘hole’ was made.”

Once rare, ionospheric “punch holes” are increasingly common with record numbers of rocket launches led by SpaceX sending Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit. Ham radio operators may notice them when shortwave signals fail to skip over the horizon, shooting through holes instead of bouncing back to Earth. Sudden GPS errors can also result from the anomalies. These effects may be troublesome, but they are shortlived; re-ionization occurs as soon as the sun comes up again.

Readers, did you see a red glow from this week’s SpaceX launch? Submit your photos here.

Nature does not have nor make laws. Humans do. Nature has HABITS.

Rupert Sheldrake, PhD mega brilliant natural biologist

CME IMPACT (THE FIRST OF TWO): A CME just hit Earth’s magnetic field (July 20th at 1651 UT): data. This is the first of two CMEs forecasters have been tracking en route to Earth. The second should reach our planet tomorrow, July 21st. The combined effect of these two CMEs could cause G1 to G2-class geomagnetic storms with high-latitude auroras. Aurora alerts: SMS Text

RARE REVERSED-POLARITY SUNSPOT: Sunspot AR3376 is breaking the law: Hale’s Law. Its magnetic polarity is reversed compared to other sunspots in the sun’s northern hemisphere:

(A sunspot can’t break the law. See above. It’s simply changing which nature DOES in evolution. Humans can’t control it, nor should they.)

According to Hale’s Law, Solar Cycle 25 sunspots in the sun’s northern hemisphere should have a -/+ polarity (negative on the left, positive on the right). AR3376 is reversed; its polarity is +/-.

Studies show that about 3% of all sunspots violate Hale’s Law. In most ways, reversed polarity sunspots are totally normal. They have about the same lifespan and size as ordinary sunspots. In one important way, however, they are different.

According to a 1982 survey by Frances Tang of the Big Bear Solar Observatory, reversed polarity sunspots are more than twice as likely to develop unstable magnetic fields in which + and – are mixed together. Reversed polarity sunspots are therefore more likely to explode.

Stay tuned for flares from AR3376. Solar flare alerts: SMS Text
