    Default Re: Geomagnetic Reversals and Ice Ages

    I am posting this information here which I have already posted previously on a couple of other threads, and though it is later in coming, I think it definitely belongs here.

    I have had a proclivity for tracing the incarnations of certain individuals who can be identified by their missions in life which are carried on from lifetime to lifetime, and who can also be traced through time by other characteristics including physical resemblance, talents, personal failings,  etc.
    One such individual that recently came to my attention is Ben Davidson of SpaceWeatherNews. 
    (I hope he will forgive me for making this information so public. My motives are not to embarrass him, but to support him in the best way I know how. Perhaps one of the biggest sacrifices that people who choose a public life must make is coming under much scrutiny, and hopefully Ben has learned to deal with that without too much trouble.) 

    I think  Davidson was  Sir Isaac Newton in a former life, and there are quite a few similarities which I believe stand up quite credibly in  comparison.
    I am not aiming to bring this to Ben's attention or to that of his followers as a mere subject of speculative curiosity, but as validation of the value of Ben's intelligence, contributions and credibility. 
    Also, hopefully,  to help silence his detractors. 
    My attention was first drawn to the marked physical  resemblance between Ben and Sir Isaac. 
    I have seen that same pensive, critical expression on Ben's face during his video updates as we see in the famous portrait of Sir Isaac:


    Ben is intellectually brilliant and very innovative, astute in the fields of math and sciences, as was Newton.
    He has a very retentive memory  and is a speed reader, with a rare type of Hyperthymesia which contributes to that retentiveness and the ability to "connect the dots". 
    More about Ben's background here:
    https://suspicious0bservers.org/about-faq/
    Newton certainly had his challenges, but he overcame them sufficiently to make a brilliant and indelible mark in history in spite of them. 
    Ben's greatest challenges may still be upcoming, but hopefully he will continue to gain the support and recognition he deserves so that the coming hurdles will not be so formidable as the ones Newton had to face in his early years, which were tragic. 
     The following description  from: https://www.britannica.com/biography/Isaac-Newton
    ...is of Newton's volatile nature  which was probably largely due  to traumatic events from his childhood:

    "Deprived of a father before birth, he soon lost his mother as well, for within two years she married a second time; her husband, the well-to-do minister Barnabas Smith, left young Isaac with his grandmother and moved to a neighbouring village to raise a son and two daughters. 
    For nine years, until the death of Barnabas Smith in 1653, Isaac was effectively separated from his mother, and his pronounced psychotic tendencies have been ascribed to this traumatic event. T
    hat he hated his stepfather we may be sure. 
    When he examined the state of his soul in 1662 and compiled a catalog of sins in shorthand, he remembered 'Threatening my father and mother Smith to burne them and the house over them.'
     The acute sense of insecurity that rendered him obsessively anxious when his work was published and irrationally violent when he defended it accompanied Newton throughout his life and can plausibly be traced to his early years."

    Also:
    "When Newton received the bachelor’s degree in April 1665, the most remarkable undergraduate career in the history of university education had passed unrecognized. 
    On his own, without formal guidance, he had sought out the new philosophy and the new mathematics and made them his own, but he had confined the progress of his studies to his notebooks."
    Like Newton was, Ben is also an extremely dedicated,"bookish" scholar, both original and innovative in his work.
    Although Ben's assertions have often been assessed as not only controversial but unfounded, many notable scientists have become more and more in alignment with his views over time. 

    Ben's frequent "saltiness" has in part been the result of being such a controversial figure, and there is  evidence that Newton's very temperamental nature was caused in part by controversy.
    Sir Isaac became very impatient because he knew he was right, but it took so much longer for others to finally realize it, and Ben seems to suffer from the same dilemma, perhaps exacerbated by the fact that he is having to endure once again the very same frustrating challenges that he endured in that past life, all over again. 

    "Newton was also engaged in another exchange on his theory of colours with a circle of English Jesuits in Liège, perhaps the most revealing exchange of all.
    Although their objections were shallow, their contention that his experiments were mistaken lashed him into a fury. 
    The correspondence dragged on until 1678, when a final shriek of rage from Newton, apparently accompanied by a complete nervous breakdown, was followed by silence. 
    The death of his mother the following year completed his isolation. 
    For six years he withdrew from intellectual commerce except when others initiated a correspondence, which he always broke off as quickly as possible."

    Additionally:
    "When the Royal Society received the completed manuscript of Book I in 1686, Hooke raised the cry of plagiarism, a charge that cannot be sustained in any meaningful sense. 
    On the other hand, Newton’s response to it reveals much about him. 
    Hooke would have been satisfied with a generous acknowledgment; it would have been a graceful gesture to a sick man already well into his decline, and it would have cost Newton nothing. 
    Newton, instead, went through his manuscript and eliminated nearly every reference to Hooke. 
    Such was his fury that he refused either to publish his Opticks or to accept the presidency of the Royal Society until Hooke was dead."

    More here about Newton's very colorful later life: https://www.britannica.com/biography.../The-Principia
    He became quite a  wealthy man and very religious, and found fulfillment in associating with other innovative scientists.
    Criticisms have been registered  about Davidson's outbursts of temper in his Q&A video presentations, about his openly acquisitive appeals for donations from followers, and about his strong religious beliefs, but many believe his pioneering scientific work has such merit that it is certainly enough to recommend setting such comparatively minor concerns aside. 

    There is no way I can prove I am right about Ben's former incarnation, but I believe I have accurately matched up past lives with current lives of various people of my acquaintance (and those individuals have often conceded that I was probably correct). 
    I cannot really take credit however, as I think I have been led to the information by spirit guides.
    Which makes me think that there are those in the spiritual realms watching over this planet who would like Ben's quest to be successful. 

    For those who understand his work, I think that it's clear Ben's accomplishments so far have been remarkable and on a par with Newton's, particularly considering how controversial his work is and how a lot of what he has achieved  has been done relatively single handedly and certainly without the blessings of the powers that be. 
    He has reached a certain landmark now with Observer Ranch which will be of great interest to many who hope and pray  that he succeeds in his goals to educate the public about the coming challenges and to help as many survive them as he can.
    He has authored another book which is coming out now, a new documentary is due to be aired soon, and activities at Observer Ranch are on the rise.  

    Newton lived to the age of 84, and Ben has the kind of large ears and long earlobes which signal longevity according to the ancient (and very accurate) art of Chinese Medicine, so  he may well survive beyond the 12,00 year solar cycle he is helping many to prepare for, though he predicts otherwise. 
    Hopefully that prediction will be proven wrong, as I think it will, for otherwise that would be a great loss. 
    And hopefully this information will help Ben to overcome both the inner obstacles that may hinder his success, as well as those forces which are aligned against the survival of humanity on this planet. 
    I hope it will come to his attention and serve his purposes well.
    God bless!

    update: From: https://www.sciencenewstoday.org/10-...f-isaac-newton
    "Few names in the history of science carry as much weight as Sir Isaac Newton. He was not just a scientist but a visionary who changed how humanity understands the universe. Born in 1642, in the same year that Galileo Galilei died, Newton lived during a time of great upheaval in science—a period historians call the Scientific Revolution. He was a mathematician, physicist, astronomer, philosopher, and even a theologian, whose ideas became the foundation of modern science.

    Newton’s work continues to influence nearly every aspect of life, from the way satellites orbit Earth to the engineering principles behind bridges and skyscrapers. He did not just answer questions—he redefined how questions should be asked. His mind bridged the gap between the medieval worldview and the modern scientific age.

    In this article, we will explore ten of Newton’s most important contributions, tracing the profound ways his ideas shaped the world. Each of these contributions reveals the genius of a man whose curiosity and intellect continue to illuminate the path of discovery centuries later.

    1. The Laws of Motion
    Newton’s Three Laws of Motion are perhaps his most famous contribution and remain the bedrock of classical physics. These laws explain how objects move and interact with forces, concepts so fundamental that they are still taught to every physics student today.

    First Law (Law of Inertia): An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion continues in motion unless acted upon by an external force. This idea was revolutionary because it overturned the Aristotelian belief that a force was always required to keep something moving.
    Second Law: Force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma). This law provides the precise relationship between force, mass, and acceleration, allowing scientists to predict motion in measurable terms.
    Third Law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This explains phenomena as simple as walking (your foot pushes back on the ground, the ground pushes you forward) and as complex as rocket propulsion.
    These laws transformed physics from a collection of observations into a predictive science. They apply everywhere—from the fall of an apple to the flight of a spacecraft.

    2. Universal Law of Gravitation
    While others before Newton speculated about gravity, it was he who gave it a precise, mathematical form. His Law of Universal Gravitation states that every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

    This simple formula explained why apples fall to the ground, why the Moon orbits Earth, and why planets revolve around the Sun. It united celestial mechanics with earthly physics, showing that the same law governs both the heavens and Earth.

    Newton’s insight shattered the divide between earthly and celestial realms, a divide that had persisted since ancient times. By proving that gravity was universal, he laid the foundation for modern astronomy, astrophysics, and space exploration.

    3. Development of Calculus
    To describe motion and change, Newton developed a new branch of mathematics: calculus. Independently and nearly simultaneously, the German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz also created calculus, leading to one of the most famous disputes in scientific history.

    Regardless of priority, Newton’s calculus was essential for his scientific breakthroughs. It allowed him to describe instantaneous rates of change and to calculate areas under curves—tools that were necessary for formulating his laws of motion and gravitation.

    Today, calculus is indispensable. It underpins physics, engineering, computer science, economics, and even biology. Every time scientists model population growth, predict climate change, or design a rocket, they rely on the mathematical framework Newton helped pioneer.

    4. The Nature of Light and Optics
    Newton made groundbreaking contributions to the study of light. Through a series of experiments, he demonstrated that white light is not pure but composed of many colors. By passing light through a prism, he showed that white light splits into the spectrum of colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

    He further proved that these colors could recombine to form white light again, showing that color is an intrinsic property of light, not a distortion created by glass lenses, as many previously believed.

    Newton also studied the behavior of light in reflection and refraction. He proposed the corpuscular theory of light, suggesting that light consists of particles. While later replaced by wave and quantum theories, his ideas set the stage for centuries of debate and discovery in optics.

    His work revolutionized optics and vision science, influencing everything from the design of microscopes and telescopes to our understanding of how human eyes perceive color.

    5. The Reflecting Telescope
    Frustrated by the limitations of refracting telescopes, which used glass lenses that distorted light and created color fringes, Newton invented a new type of telescope: the reflecting telescope.

    Instead of lenses, Newton used mirrors to gather and focus light. This design eliminated chromatic aberration, a problem where different colors focus at different points, blurring images. Newton’s telescope produced clearer, sharper images than anything available at the time.

    Today, nearly all major astronomical telescopes—including the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope—are based on Newton’s reflecting design. This invention gave humanity sharper eyes to explore the cosmos, opening windows to galaxies, nebulae, and the very origins of the universe.

    6. Principia Mathematica
    Newton’s magnum opus, Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (often called the Principia), published in 1687, is one of the most important books in the history of science.

    In it, Newton presented his laws of motion and universal gravitation, supported by rigorous mathematics. The Principia provided not just theories but predictive power: it explained the motions of planets, comets, tides, and projectiles on Earth with stunning accuracy.

    This book marked the birth of classical mechanics and established the scientific method of combining theory with mathematical proof and experimental evidence. The Principia transformed physics into a true science, setting the stage for centuries of discovery.

    7. Binomial Theorem and Mathematical Advancements
    Beyond calculus, Newton made significant contributions to pure mathematics. His work on the generalized binomial theorem allowed him to expand expressions to any power, including fractions and irrational numbers.

    This extension of algebra was groundbreaking because it allowed mathematicians to handle infinite series and to work with problems previously considered unsolvable. Newton’s methods anticipated many tools later developed in mathematical analysis.

    His contributions laid essential groundwork for modern algebra, number theory, and advanced mathematics, demonstrating his versatility as both a physicist and mathematician.

    8. Laws of Cooling and Thermodynamics
    Newton also ventured into the study of heat. He formulated what became known as Newton’s Law of Cooling, which states that the rate at which an object changes temperature is proportional to the difference between its temperature and the surrounding environment.

    This law became one of the earliest steps toward the field of thermodynamics, which would later be developed by scientists such as Carnot, Joule, and Clausius. It remains applicable in diverse fields today, from forensic science (estimating time of death from body cooling) to engineering and climate studies.

    Newton’s insight showed his extraordinary ability to observe everyday phenomena and describe them in universal, mathematical terms.

    9. Contributions to Astronomy
    Newton’s gravitational theory revolutionized astronomy. By applying his laws of motion and gravity, he was able to explain Kepler’s laws of planetary motion, showing that planets orbit the Sun in ellipses due to gravitational forces.

    He also accurately predicted the return of Halley’s Comet, in collaboration with his friend Edmond Halley. This prediction provided one of the first strong confirmations of Newton’s theories and demonstrated that comets, once thought to be unpredictable omens, follow precise, calculable paths.

    Newton’s work in astronomy bridged observation and theory, turning the heavens into a knowable system governed by universal laws rather than mystical forces.

    10. Legacy and Philosophical Impact
    Newton’s contributions were not limited to individual discoveries—they reshaped how humanity thinks about nature itself. He introduced the idea that the universe operates according to consistent, discoverable laws. This vision replaced centuries of reliance on mystical explanations and divine intervention in natural phenomena.

    His work inspired the Age of Enlightenment, influencing not only science but also philosophy, politics, and culture. Thinkers like Voltaire, Kant, and Jefferson admired Newton as a symbol of human reason’s power. His ideas echoed through centuries, laying the groundwork for modern technology, engineering, and space exploration.

    Newton’s legacy extends beyond equations and experiments. He showed the world that with logic, observation, and mathematics, the universe itself could be understood—a radical and liberating idea that continues to shape our modern worldview.

    Conclusion
    Isaac Newton was more than a scientist; he was a revolution in human thought. His contributions—ranging from the laws of motion and gravity to the invention of the reflecting telescope—reshaped science and opened humanity’s eyes to the workings of nature.

    Though centuries have passed, Newton’s influence remains everywhere: in the satellites orbiting Earth, in the engines that power our machines, in the mathematics that describes economies and ecosystems, and in the scientific spirit that drives exploration.

    He once humbly said, “If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.” Yet to the world, Newton himself became the giant, a towering figure whose genius still casts light across the centuries. His ten most important contributions remind us of the boundless power of human curiosity—and the lasting legacy of one of the greatest minds who ever lived."

    Vicus note:

    I don't know if this article is another version from Ben Davidson theory,anyway...

    A 'Great Wave' is rippling through our galaxy, pushing thousands of stars out of place- 2 days ago

    A giant 'wave' is rippling through the Milky Way, pushing thousands of stars across the galaxy, and scientists don't know what triggered it.



    An edge-on visual of the Milky Way, based on data from the European Space Agency's Gaia star-mapping mission. An apparent "wave" of star movements is visible, shown by vertical arrows (Image credit: ESA/Gaia/DPAC, S. Payne-Wardenaar, E. Poggio et al (2025))

    A huge "wave" is rippling through our galaxy, pushing billions of stars in its wake, a new study reveals.

    The Milky Way's galactic wave was spotted in mapping data from the European Space Agency's (ESA) Gaia space telescope, which charted the positions and movement patterns of millions of stars with high accuracy before retiring earlier this year.

    Like ripples in a pond, the wave has a very large influence: It affects stars between 30,000 and 65,000 light-years away from the galaxy's center, ESA officials said in a statement. That's a large percentage of the Milky Way, which is roughly 100,000 light-years across.

    Astronomers still don't know what started the motion. It could have been a past collision with a smaller, dwarf galaxy that caused the large shake, ESA officials said, but more investigation is required to answer that question.

    The results were published July 14 in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics.

    Another recent article from the same source (though different author) suggests they don't really understand what's happening; See:
    "'The sun is slowly waking up': NASA warns that there may be more extreme space weather for decades to come
    A new NASA study suggests that solar activity will remain high or rise further in the coming decades, contradicting previous assumptions that the sun was quieting down — and scientists "don't completely understand" why.

    I don't know if this article is another version from Ben Davidson theory,anyway...

    A 'Great Wave' is rippling through our galaxy, pushing thousands of stars out of place- 2 days ago

    A giant 'wave' is rippling through the Milky Way, pushing thousands of stars across the galaxy, and scientists don't know what triggered it.



    An edge-on visual of the Milky Way, based on data from the European Space Agency's Gaia star-mapping mission. An apparent "wave" of star movements is visible, shown by vertical arrows (Image credit: ESA/Gaia/DPAC, S. Payne-Wardenaar, E. Poggio et al (2025))

    A huge "wave" is rippling through our galaxy, pushing billions of stars in its wake, a new study reveals.

    The Milky Way's galactic wave was spotted in mapping data from the European Space Agency's (ESA) Gaia space telescope, which charted the positions and movement patterns of millions of stars with high accuracy before retiring earlier this year.

    Like ripples in a pond, the wave has a very large influence: It affects stars between 30,000 and 65,000 light-years away from the galaxy's center, ESA officials said in a statement. That's a large percentage of the Milky Way, which is roughly 100,000 light-years across.

    Astronomers still don't know what started the motion. It could have been a past collision with a smaller, dwarf galaxy that caused the large shake, ESA officials said, but more investigation is required to answer that question.

    The results were published July 14 in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics.

    Translation: the mass/gravity model doesn't explain it, and they refuse to consider the plasma/electromagnetic model.
