Will Their Be Solar Flares in 2012 ?
Scientists have been involved in observing the sun and analyzing its heats role in the different seasons experienced by earth since centuries. During one of these studies, scientists stumbled upon the potential solar flares or solar storms that are predicted to take place in the year 2012. After monitoring the sun’s movement patterns since 11 years scientists have concluded that there is a very good chance that we might experience a full blown solar storm that might affect people living on earth. The first solar flares incident took place in 2003. But this event took place without drawing any attention from the people around the world. However, the predicted 2012 solar storm may not go unnoticed this time around.
Solar flares, as the name suggests, as solar storms that take place on the sun’s surface. The result of these storms is an eruption of intense high energy radiation. A similar incident took place in 1859. During that solar storm, many telegraph wires were damaged. In addition to this at the same time of the solar flares widespread erupted in many parts of the United States and in Europe. The reason for these fires were not explainable and the only plausible reason thatt could be concluded was that the solar flares caused the fires.
There are thousands of satellites orbiting the earth to send us information regarding everything that happens in outer space. Technology has reached a level that was unthinkable during the 80’s. Governments around the world have invested millions in setting up space stations that are present beyond the atmosphere to record and inform us of events that happen beyond the earth’s surface that have a potential affect on earth. In addition to this, there are hundreds of satellites that are set up to facilitate easy communication between people from all over the world. The National Academy of Sciences had performed several studies and have found that the solar flares can have a huge impact in damaging many of these satellites and space stations that have been set up by man. Such damage can results in loss in millions and loss in technology and communication.
Scientists who have intensively studied solar flares say that this event happens almost every decade. People from all over the world need to be kept informed and have to know how to act to be prepared for the solar storm. There are huge risks that we might be facing like the loss of lives of astronauts who are in space and the loss of the thousands of satellites that make our lives easier everyday. One of the major concerns that scientists have is the affect the solar flares will have on power grids. If the solar flares manage to disable and rupture the power grids on earth, then more than 130 million people in the US alone will be affected. This is counting only one continent. The affect it will have on the rest of the world is unthinkable and we can only be aware and be informed about what precautions we need to take to ensure that the whole event occurs as smoothly as possible.
Solar Cycles and End of world War Prediction
Until a couple of years ago there were not that many people who were acquainted with the end of the world 2012 prophecy that was put forward by many scholars who studied the end of the Mayan long calendar. This Long Count calendar has lasted for five thousand one hundred and twenty five years, and although the end of the calendar leads to many different interpretations, one of the most popular is the belief that at the end of this cycle the world (or humanity’s existence) will come to an abrupt end on December 21 2012. Is the world going to end in 2012?
In order to fully understand the 2012 end of the world predications, then you should first understand the calendar that is at the center of this controversy. The current cycle, or baktun, of this calendar began on August 13th, 3114 B.C. This marked the end of the last period and the beginning of the current one. The baktun that we are currently living in is the thirteenth, and the end of this cycle is one that has been considered to have a large level of importance to the Mayan people, which is why so many people have come to the conclusion that this cycle’s end is one that will mean the end of the world as we know it.
While there is no definite proclamation of how the end of the world 2012 predictions will happen, those who have studied this calendar claim that the long calendar was created in order to correspond with a long term astronomical prediction by the Mayan people. This has led some to believe that this end of the world scenario will play out in a manner that has something to do with something from beyond this world. While this correlation to something that is going on in outer space is not a definite thing, for some it comes from a basic understanding of Mayan culture and their unique understanding of astronomical phenomena and planetary alignments.
Recently the end of the Mayan Long Calendar has received a lot of attention because of the belief that the date is closely linked in with the end of the world as we know it today. These 2012 predictions range from those on a celestial level to those on a much more earthly realm. One of the reasons why researchers of Mayan culture and mythology are so certain that this calendar means something is because of the exacting relevance and research that was put into studying the solar system and the corresponding important dates.
For example, the end of the calendar takes place at the end of the thirteenth baktun. The number thirteen was considered by the Mayan to be a very important and spiritual number. Not to mention the fact that December 21st, 2012, is not only the winter solstice, but is actually the date that a rare alignment will take place of the entire Milky Way. This is something that only occurs once every twenty five thousand years. The fact that the Mayans knew this date was going to be an important one for the alignment of the planets is not a coincidence. In fact, the Mayan culture has several components that are closely linked in with the study of astronomy.
When researchers began to look into the dates on the Mayan calendar they realized that they actually corresponded to certain astronomical phenomenon it was that amazed most of them. After all, this culture did not have access to the high tech scientific equipment that we have today, yet they were able to pinpoint many events in our solar system with complete accuracy. It was this ability of the Mayans that caused many who looked into the 2012 predictions to take them a little more seriously than they might have otherwise.
There are arguments that the end of the baktun cycle that the Mayans put into their calendar does not necessarily mean that it is the end of humanity, but rather they would have seen it as an important transition that would affect everyone on a different level. However, there are others who view it as a literal end of the world scenario. Besides the rare planetary alignment that is set to occur, there are also interesting astronomical occurrences that help to lend credence to this idea.
One of these is the belief that there is a planet named Nibiru (sometimes referred to as Planet X) that orbits through our solar system once every three thousand six hundred years. While there is no definite scientific proof of this, there are those researchers who agree that there appears to be a missing planet from the orbital rotation. Some even believe that the next time this planet’s orbit is set to intersect with ours will be in the year 2012. If this orbit interferes with our solar system it could cause a lot of problems, and these issues are what some people are anticipating.
While you may find the idea of this strange planet something out of a science fiction novel, you should know that the ancient Sumerians actually wrote about this planet, and they are the ones who named it Nibiru. They also believed that an advanced race of beings known as the Anunnaki lived on the planet, and that these beings created humanity through a form of genetic manipulation. While the Sumerians did not know about genetic mutation, it appears that the hieroglyphs that have been uncovered by archeologists show a detailed description of the Anunnaki taking a part of themselves and combining it with other creatures to create humanity.
Even though the 2012 predictions are completely shrouded in mystery, it is certain that they have intrigued people around the world.
