The Solar System

[jupiter]

There is a mega storm on Saturn that streaches right around the planet in the northern hemisphere and the southern cloud band around the tropics on Jupiter has dissapeared
Something`s going on,also their infared outputs are increasing,just like ours..
I think we are in for some interesting times
Kind regards James

"It was evident to Jupiter watchers late last year that the planet was going into one of these SEB fading cycles, but then it was lost behind the sun for several months and naturally everyone who follows these things was eager to take images as soon as possible after its re-emergence in March," Wesley told SPACE.com in an e-mail.

"As it moves away from the sun (from our point of view) it will be possible to capture even better images and perhaps we will be watching later this year or next year when the SEB revival takes place. The timing of this revival is not known, but historically this is a very dynamic event with planet-wide outbreaks of violent storms around the SEB latitude and eventually clearing away the obscuring clouds to reveal the dark SEB once more," he added.

Wesley's photos were also released by The Planetary Society in California, which added that Jupiter's Southern Equatorial Belt tends to fade from view about every three to 15 years.

"Jupiter with only one belt is almost like seeing Saturn when its rings are edge-on and invisible for a time -- it just doesn't look right," wrote skywatcher Bob King of Duluth, Minn., in a May 10 entry of his blog "Astro Bob" while discussing Wesleyan's surprising Jupiter views.

thanks for the info bennycog ,Orange NSW bet it`s cold ,when our kids were young we would take them camping at Ilford near Mudgee to look through some great scopes ,it`s where the astromony club had their grounds we would also camp at Siding Springs in the Warrenbungles,great area
but oh so cold in winter,which is when the best skies arefor observing
That was a long time ago ,the kids a all grown now ,I certainly do miss it . Thanks for jogging the memory,I`m sitting here with a contented smile
Kind regards James
PS I now live in the Sunshine Coast ,much warmer ,but not today

Vast Solar Eruption Shocks NASA and Raises Doubts on Sun Theory

Iron core sun theorists believe it's possible that our sun may now, in fact, be more like an atom rather than a huge gas ball. With the atom, electrons occupy 99% of the volume and have less than 1% of the mass. In the Sun, the atmosphere and planets occupy 99% of the volume and may also have less than 1% of the mass.

Evidence Suggests Solar Theories May Need to be Re-written

global scaling theory has said for quite a long time that the solar system may be identical to that of an atomic structure, likened to that of an 'atom'.

yes james it is very cold here at the moment.. have not seen snow yet (this year) .. it snowed while i was away working in mount isa a few weeks ago though..
i love the summers here they are not so scorching. and if i had the means i would be here for the summer and somewhere high and warm in qld for the winter..
i feel orange is a safe place to be and have always felt that, not really knowing why.
i own a few pairs of thermals thats for sure

Just a little bit of info for people who have never heard of the Warrumbungles. This area is definitely worth a visit, if you ever have the chance - with stunning views guaranteed to make you say "wow" around every bend in the road. It's a good place to get close to wildlife, do some hiking or some serious rock-climbing.

The Siding Spring Observatory, is situated on Mount Woorat in the Warrumbungles National Park. The Australian National University selected the site beacause the air is exceptionally clean, the sky is mostly cloud-free and light pollution is very minimal. There is a visitors gallery and exhibition area open to the public. Guided tours are also available during NSW school holidays.

Siding Spring Observatory currently has 12 telescopes:

• 3.9 m (154 inch) Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAO)
• 1.24 m UK Schmidt Telescope (AAO)
• 2.0 m Faulkes Telescope South
• 1.3 m SkyMapper Telescope (ANU)
• 2.3 m Advanced Technology Telescope (ANU)
• 0.5 m Uppsala Southern Schmidt Telescope
• 0.5 m Automated Patrol Telescope (UNSW)
• 0.45 m ROTSE IIIa, Robotic Optical Transit Search Experiment (UNSW)
• Korean YSTAR Telescope (Korean Southern Observatory)
• 40-inch Telescope (ANU – decommissioned)
• 24-inch Telescope (ANU – decommissioned)
• 16-inch Telescope (ANU – decommissioned)

Nearly everything known by science needs to be corrected and rewritten. The observations we are seeing from Sun activity is a great example of this and it includes not only solar activities but those that effect Saturn, Jupiter and all the other planets in the Milky Way Galaxy. We need new language and math to even begin to understand all that will be revealed soon about what's really going on the in the local Cosmos and this includes all this great Sun activity and it will have far reaching affects for the Entire Creation. The time hasn't arrive yet when it will be fully accepted as the old 3D scientific systems fail and new ones arise there will come time for a new opportunity and openness for the truth of our Universe to be told. The old limited viewpoints on things, hopefully, will be changing soon. The entire structure of what we think we know, is simply incorrect, and it limits how much we can understand at present. Even if many are not understanding what they see, it's still a great show to watch and you can catch up later on what is really happening...

A new Central Sun is being born in the Milky Way Galaxy and it involves and effects Jupiter, Saturn, Earth, and all of our preconceived notions need a rewrite. For those of us who are sky watchers and dreamers and lovers of the Cosmos, this will be the greatest show on Earth and you will have front row seats for it. In the end, I think this is all that really counts. Many blessings! xoxoxox
