This is Henrik Svensmark’s name for the science that links conditions on our planet to cosmic forces. As we move within the Milky Way and are pulled towards other galaxies, biodiversity and climate respond to both interstellar and intergalactic energy.
In 2007, NASA scientists were stunned when auroras over Alaska crossed 15 degrees of longitude in LESS than one minute! That display lasted two hours and used up as much power as a 5.5 magnitude earthquake. Satellites proved the energy flowed along temporary magnetic ropes that formed where solar plasma hit the earth’s magnetic field.
Cosmic ropes… Was this concept known in prehistoric times? Do these drawings show ancient energy transfer between planets on magnetic flux ropes?
The Maya recorded our cosmos more than other cultures. Why did they paint these streams descending from signs for planets?
Put aside how important our little planet is in the universe. And look to stars and galaxies for light on some puzzles.
