Exopolitics & Galactic Studies – Sun Storm: Could our sun nova?

With the publication of "Exopolitics: Has the 2012 Galactic Superwave Begun?"

http://exopolitics.blogs.com/exopolitics/2005/03/did_a_neutron_s.html

Exopolitics.com has begun publication of a new series:
"Exopolitics & Galactic Studies," focusing on the Exopolitical
implications that flow from viewing the Galaxy as an organic, dynamic
entity, with cyclical, ecological, environmental, social,
anthropological and Exopolitical impacts on Universe society and
specifically on our terrestrial society.  The Exopolitics &
Galactic Studies series also focuses attention on the "2012 Phenomenon"
, asking whether the December 26-27, 2004 Tsunami-Gamma Ray Burst
Events, for example, may be an indicator that a cyclical Galactic
Superwave event, recurrent every 13,000 and 26,000 years, may have
begun.  The Mayan Calendar’s current TUN, or organic unit of Galactic
time, ends on December 21, 2012.

"Sun Storm: Could our sun nova?" by Bill Hamilton of Skywatch International is the next article in our Exopolitics & Galactic Studies series.

Exopolitics & Galactic Studies – Sun Storm: Could our sun nova?
by Bill Hamilton

Astronomers are learning more about our mysterious star we call the
sun.  The sun is a huge fusion reactor that slowly fuses hydrogen
nuclei into helium nuclei. 

Our sun is a medium-sized yellow star that is 93,026,724 miles from
the Earth.  This distance also determines a measure of 1 Astronomical
Unit.  This distance varies over a year.

The Sun’s core can reach 10 to 22.5 million °F. The surface
temperature is approximately 9,900°F (5,500°C). The outer atmosphere of
the Sun (which we can see during a solar eclipse) gets extremely hot
again, up to 1.5 to 2 million degrees. At the center of big sunspots
the temperature can be as low as 7300 °F (4300 K, 4000 °C). The
temperature of the Sun is determined by measuring how much energy (both
heat and light) it emits.

The sun has been determined to be about 4.5 billion years old.  The
earth and the sun are of the same age having formed at the same time
according to existing theory. 

The sun emits electromagnetic radiation and charged particles.
Frequently, the sun will flare and brighten and an explosive flare will
emit the energy equivalent of  millions of 100-megaton Hydrogen bombs.

Stars like the sun are considered to be stable over their life
cycles.   The outward pressure of gases in the solar wind balances the
inward force of gravity.  Lucky for us. 

Novas

From time to time a white dwarf star will accumulate too much
hydrogen gas from a neighbor and this results in a tremendous explosion
of this gas shell that brightens the star in the heavens.  This is what
we know as a nova.  It usually occurs at the final stages of a star’s
life cycle.

Yet, do we know all that we need to know about novas?  What happens
if a cloud of hydrogen gas of unusually high density were to engulf our
sun.? Could a mini-nova result in the expulsion of a shell of gas that
would burst like a firestorm through the solar system?  Although it
seems unlikely, studies of ancient history seem to indicate variations
in solar output that may have produced catastrophic changes on earth.
Even today, a variation in solar luminosity is occurring and scientists
report that the slight increase in solar output may be contributing to
climate change and global warming.  There is some evidence that some of
the other planets in our system are also experiencing warmer
temperatures and climate change.  These changes could be the result of
increasing accumulations of cosmic dust through which our solar system
is passing.

Deciphering the Mayan symbols seems to point to a coming catastrophe
in the the winter solstice of our year 2012 that involves changes in
our sun and its effects on the earth. This is such an immense subject
that my research on it continues in spurts.  To summarize the
predictions it can be said that a recurring event may cause the change
in our sun.  That event, known as the grand crossing, is synchronized
to the precession of the equinoxes.

This is such an immense subject that my research on it continues in
spurts.  To summarize the predictions it can be said that a recurring
event may cause the change in our sun.  That event, known as the grand
crossing, is synchronized to the precession of the equinoxes.

Here is a description of that event:

“Is there something significant we should know about the Winter
Solstice date of December 21, 2012? Yes. On this day a rare
astronomical and Mayan mythical event occurs. In astronomic terms, the
Sun conjuncts the intersection of the Milky Way and the plane of the
ecliptic. The Milky Way, as most of us know, extends in a general
north-south direction in the night sky. The plane of the ecliptic is
the track the Sun, Moon, planets and stars appear to travel in the sky,
from east to west. It intersects the Milky Way at a 60 degree angle
near the constellation Sagittarius. The cosmic cross formed by the
intersecting Milky Way and plane of the ecliptic was called the Sacred
Tree by the Maya. The trunk of the tree, the Axis Mundi, is the Milky
Way, and the main branch intersecting the tree is the plane of the
ecliptic. Mythically, at sunrise on December 21, 2012, the Sun – our
Father – rises to conjoin the center of the Sacred Tree, the World
Tree, the Tree of Life..

The galactic center and the Great Rift contain  great clouds of
hydrogen gas and dust, the substances out of which stars are formed.
These clouds partially block our view of the bright stars that crowd
the galactic center.

The great rift of the Milky Way begins near Deneb and extends SW
deep into the southern Milky Way ending near Alpha Centauri. The dust
clouds of the rift are probably 1,000 light-years distant in Cygnus,
and approach us in Aquila, Scutum, Sagittarius and Scorpius, where they
are only a few hundred light years away.

The Eagle Aquila is dusted with dark nebulae, ancient star cities,
stellar outbursts and the faint puffs of exploded stars. Aquila is on
the celestial equator and cuts through the great rift of the Milky Way
where it runs NE – SW. Aquila is poor in clusters, rich in faint
planetary nebulae, and loaded with dark nebulae.

This rare astronomical event, foretold in the Mayan creation story
of the Hero Twins, and calculated empirically by them, will happen for
many of us in our lifetime. The Sun has not conjoined the Milky Way and
the plane of the ecliptic since some 25,800 years ago, long before the
Mayans arrived on the scene and long before their predecessors the
Olmecs arrived. What does this mean? “
(from: http://www.crawford2000.co.uk/maya.htm)

Many do not think that anything special will happen, but others
believe that the Mayans recorded significant events and used precise
calendars to forecast the recurrence of periodic cycles marked by
special events.

Why would the intersection of our sun and solar system with the Milky Way’s equatorial plane constitute a noteworthy event?

“The auspicious year of 2012 indicated in the long count calendar
illuminates the fact that the Precessional movement of the Winter
Solstice Sun will gradually bring its position into alignment with the
very center of our Galaxy. For the Maya, this is like the last stroke
of Midnight on New Year’s Eve; only in 2012 the New Year is the New
Galactic Year of 26,000 solar years. The Galactic Clock will be at zero
point and a New Precessional Cycle will begin.”
(from: http://www.kamakala.com/2012.htm)

Maurice Cotterell has studied the Mayan, Egyptian, and Incan lost
sciences of the sun and has  determined that the sun goes through
cycles of magnetic reversals and changes of direction.  He believes
that the ancient calendars show how the earth was destroyed 5 times due
to the sun’s twisting magnetic fields.  (from: http://www.mauricecotterell.com/synopsis06.htm)

The last piece of the puzzle that may explain why the sun will react to this event comes from Dr. Paul LaViolette in his book, Earth Under Fire.

“In a nutshell, the book is about LaViolette’s dissertation subject,
being [about] the effect of periodic galactic core explosions — the
period being roughly 26,000 years — which send out shells of cosmic
rays (chiefly in the form of electrons moving at near light-speed) that
are hundreds to thousands of light-years thick (the thickness being the
duration of that particular galactic core explosion).  The effect of
this constant blast of cosmic rays — once the shell hits our solar
system which is 23,000 light-years from the galactic core — is to push
interstellar dust into the inner solar system (the dust is normally
kept out by the pressure of the solar wind). The result of this dust is
very major, in a number of different ways, including 1) increased
flaring of the sun in the style of T-Tauri stars, 2) a downshift toward
the infra-red in terms of the solar radiation reaching the Earth, and
3) a significant deviation from normal in terms of the total solar
energy reaching the ground.

The last shell passed the Earth roughly 14,000 years ago, marking
the end of the last ice age, and causing all the major physical changes
recorded from that time.”
(from: http://www.etheric.com/LaVioletteBooks/EUF-reviews.html)

Protostars which are starting to blow away the gas and dust
surrounding them are called T-Tauri stars. The warm dust remaining
around T-Tauri stars still radiates in the infrared. There is evidence
that the remaining dust and gas surrounding T-Tauri stars form rotating
disks which may mark the beginnings of planetary systems. 

When we say that the sun may begin to behave like a T-Tauri star,
this does not mean that the sun transforms into such a star.  The gas
and dust accumulation that could occur around the sun may cause it to
behave like a T-Tauri star which could lead to a significant increase
in infrared radiation.
This paper does not explore this theme in
depth, but is meant to point the way to further research.  While it is
uncertain that minor changes in the sun will eventually lead to major
consequences, and while it uncertain that interpretation of Mayan
prophecy or prediction is correct, the fact is that evidence exists
that earth has gone through periodic catastrophes and extinction events
in its history and that major changes in climatic conditions have
occurred and will reoccur in the future.  Research may reveal to us how
the sun has played a role in both catastrophic and extinction events of
the past and how, by further solar studies, we may predict the sun’s
wild weather.
