‘Wow!’: Meteoroid over England and France Caught on Camera

Posted by addisethiopia / አዲስ ኢትዮጵያ on February 13, 2023

🛑 ዋው!’፡ ሜቶሮይድ ከጠፈር ወርዶ ሲፈነዳ በእንግሊዝ እና በፈረንሳይ ላይ በካሜራ ተያዘ

😲 ፶፯ኛው/ LVII / 57 የአሜሪካ እግርኳስ የፍጻሜ ጨዋታ ባለቀ ከጥቂት ሰዓታት በኋላ?! ጉድ ነው!

❖❖❖[የሉቃስ ወንጌል ምዕራፍ ፳፩፥፳፭፡፳፮]❖❖❖

“በፀሐይና በጨረቃም በከዋክብትም ምልክት ይሆናል፤ በምድር ላይም አሕዛብ ከባሕሩና ከሞገዱም ድምፅ የተነሣ እያመነቱ ይጨነቃሉ፤ ሰዎችም ከፍርሃትና በዓለም የሚመጣበትን ከመጠበቅ የተነሣ ይደክማሉ፤ የሰማያት ኃይላት ይናወጣሉና።”

😲 A few hours after the termination of Super Bowl LVII / 57?!

❖❖❖[Luke Chapter 21፡25-26]❖❖❖

And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.”

🛑 An asteroid which entered the earth’s atmosphere in the early hours of this morning, Monday February 13, has been captured on camera lighting up the sky over Southern England and France.

The one-metre asteroid – named Sar2667 was seen shortly before 3am as it exploded over the English Channel.

The explosion occurred as it entered the Earth’s atmosphere and it was visible from across most of southern Englandf and Wales, and as far south as Paris.

For only the seventh time ever, scientists were able to predict when and where the airburst would happen, after spotting its approach just hours before.

“Can’t believe I actually caught it. Wow!” the caption accompanying the video said.

The ESA tweeted that Sar2667 was expected to “safely” strike the Earth’s atmosphere over northern France shortly before 4 a.m. local time (3 a.m. local time in England).

“This is just the seventh time an #asteroidimpact has ever been predicted before it happens.” the ESA tweeted. “A sign of the rapid advancements in global asteroid detection capabilities!”

👉 What Are Asteroids?

Asteroids are rocky remnants left over from the early formation of our solar system about 4.6 billion years ago, Nasa says. The current known asteroid count is 1,266,098.

The majority are orbiting the Sun between Mars and Jupiter within the main asteroid belt. They range in size from Vesta – the largest at about 329 miles in diameter – to bodies that are less than 33ft across.

The total mass of all the asteroids combined is less than that of Earth’s Moon.

Jupiter’s immense gravity and rare close counters with other objects can change their orbits, knocking them out of the main belt into space, occasionally towards other planets.

Scientists continuously monitor Earth-crossing asteroids – those whose paths intersect our orbit – using radar.

By reflecting transmitted signals off an asteroid, images and other information can be derived from the echoes, enabling scientists to learn about its orbit, rotation, size, shape, and metal concentration.

👉 How Likely is an Asteroid to Hit Earth?

The $20 Million pro-Jesus ‘He Gets Us’ Super Bowl Ads Airing Tonight

Small objects frequently collide with Earth, many of them so tiny no one even notices as they burn up when they enter Earth’s atmosphere.

Researchers have found that asteroids with a 1km diameter strike Earth every 500,000 years on average. Large collisions – with 5km objects – happen approximately once every 20 million years.

The last known impact of an object of 10km or more in diameter was the Chicxulub asteroid that killed off the dinosaurs 66 million years ago.

The asteroid Bennu, which has a diameter of 525m, is believed to be the most likely to strike Earth. Research published last year gave it a one in 1,750 chance of colliding in the next three centuries.

Massive Sunspot Could Potentially Fire a Powerful Solar Flare Towards Earth

Posted by addisethiopia / አዲስ ኢትዮጵያ on June 24, 2022

🔥 ግዙፍ የፀሐይ ቦታ ወደ ምድር ኃይለኛ የፀሐይ ነበልባል ሊያቀጣጥል ይችላል

❖❖❖[የሉቃስ ወንጌል ምዕራፍ ፳፩፥፳፭፡፳፮]❖❖❖

“በፀሐይና በጨረቃም በከዋክብትም ምልክት ይሆናል፤ በምድር ላይም አሕዛብ ከባሕሩና ከሞገዱም ድምፅ የተነሣ እያመነቱ ይጨነቃሉ፤ ሰዎችም ከፍርሃትና በዓለም የሚመጣበትን ከመጠበቅ የተነሣ ይደክማሉ፤ የሰማያት ኃይላት ይናወጣሉና።”

የአሜሪካው “ናሳ” (NASA ወይም National Aeronautics and Space Administration /ብሔራዊ ሥነ ጥያራና ጠፈር አስተዳደር) “አደጋ እየመጣብን ነውን?” በማለት ስጋቱን ገልጿል።

💭 “ኬምትሬይልስ ወይንም ወረርሽኝ”

ሰማይ ላይ ምን እየረጩ ነበር/ነው? ከፀሐይ ጋርስ ምን የሚያገናኘው ነገር አለ?

ኬምትሬልስ፤ በአውሮፕላን አማካኝነት ተጎታች መስሎ ወደ ሰማይ የተተወ እና ዛሬ ብዙ ሰዎች ዘንድ፤ “በሚስጥራዊ ስራዎች የተለቀቁ ኬሚካላዊ ወይም ባዮሎጂያዊ ወኪሎች ናቸው” ተብሎ የሚታመንበት ክስተት ነው።

ከዚህ ጋር በተያያዘ ላለፉት ሃያ ዓመታት እኔ በጥርጣሬ ስገምተው የነበረው መልስ ምናልባት ይህ ሊሆን ይችላል። በቅጡ አላውቅም፤ ሆኖም የሆነ ነገር እንደሚጠቁመኝ ከሆነ፤ “ባለፉት ሰላሳ ዓመታት የአውሮፓንና አሜሪካን ሰማያት ከተሳፋሪ አውሮፕላኖች ሆነው በሚስጥር ኬሚካሎችንየሚረጩበት ስሪት ዋናው ምክኒያት ይህ የፀሐይ ቦታ መስፋፋት ምናልባት “ነጭ” የቆዳ ቀለም ላላቸው አውሮፓውያኑ አደገኛ ስለሚሆን እንደ መከላከያ አስቀድመው የሚወስዱት እርምጃ ሳይሆን አይቀርም!” የሚለው ነው።

ምንድን ነው? ይህ ምስል በመስኮት በኩል በተሳፋሪዎች የተቀረጹ ብዙ እንደዚህ ያሉ ምሳሌዎች አሉ።

ቀጥተኛ መስመር የነበረው ከአውሮፕላኑ የሚወጣው “ጢስ” በድንገት ተቋርጦ ከጥቂት ሴኮንዶች በኋላ እንደ አዲስ ሲጀምር ይታያል። በጠራራ ሰማይ ውስጥ ያሉ ብዙ ድንበሮች የማይበታተኑ ሲሆኑ እና ከጥቂት ሰዓታት በኋላም ሰማዩ በሙሉ በደመና የተሸፈነ በሚሆንበት ጊዜ ምልከታውን ማረጋገጥ ይቻላል።

እያንዳንዱ አውሮፕላን ይህን የመርጨት ሥርዓት የታጠቀ ነውን? በአየር ንብረት ላይ ተጽዕኖ ለማድረግ ቴክኖሎጂው ምንድን ነው? ወይስ ኤሮሶሎች በእርግጥ የጉንፋን ቫይረሶችን ይይዛሉ? እና በአየር ሁኔታ ላይ የተደረጉ ሙከራዎች ሽፋን ብቻ ናቸውን? ሰዎች ሲታመሙ ስለ ሌላ ነገር አያስቡም። እና ሥር የሰደደ ሕመም ካለባቸውስ? ስዎቹ ግዴለሽ ይሆናሉ።

በአውሮፕላኖች ተርባይኖች እና በኤሮሶል ውስጥ የአሉሚኒየም እና የባሪየም ጨዎችን በጭስ ማውጫ ጋዞች ውስጥ እንደሚገኙ አስቀድሞ ተረጋግጧል ።

ምናልባት እነዚህ በክትባቶች ውስጥ እንደሚደረገው የቫይረሶችን ባዮሎጂያዊ ባህል የሚጠብቁ መከላከያዎች ሊሆኑ ይችሉ ይሆን? ዛሬ ከግማሽ በላይ የሚሆነው የምድራችን ነዋሪ እንዲከተብ የተደረገው በተለይ ነጭ ቆዳ ያላቸው የምድራችን ነዋሪዎች ምናልባት ከዚህ ኃይለኛ የፀሐይ ነበልባል እንዲከላከልላቸው ታስቦ ይሆንን?

በነገራችን ላይ፤ ኮሮና ዝነኛ መሆን ከጀመረችበት ጊዜ አንስቶ ፀሐዩዋ በጣም ነጭ የሆነ ብርሃን ነው የምታበራው። በፊት ቀላ ትል ነበርና ወደ ፀሐይ ማየት ይቻል ነበር፤ ዛሬ ግን ትንሽ እንኳን ለማየት ያዳግታል።

🔥 ARE WE SAFE? Potential Solar Flares Doubles in Size Overnight”

❖❖❖[Luke Chapter 21፡25-26]❖❖❖

“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.”

A sunspot pointing toward Earth has the potential to cause solar flares, but experts told USA TODAY that this is far from unusual and that flares would have little effect on the Blue Planet.

AR3038, or Active Region 3038, has been expanding over the last week, according to Rob Steenburgh, acting director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Space Weather Forecast Office.

“That’s what sunspots do,” he explained. “They will, in general, grow over time. They go through stages before decaying.”

According to NASA, sunspots appear darker because they are cooler than other parts of the sun’s surface. Sunspots are cooler because they form where strong magnetic fields prevent heat from reaching the surface of the sun.

NASA Stated that solar flares are “a sudden explosion of energy caused by tangling, crossing, or reorganising of magnetic field lines near sunspots.”

“You can think of it like the twisting of rubber bands,” Steenburgh said. “If you have a couple of rubber bands twisting around on your finger, they eventually get twisted too much, and they break. The difference with magnetic fields is that they reconnect. And when they reconnect, it’s in that process that a flare is generated.”

The larger and more complex a sunspot becomes, the more likely solar flares are, according to Steenburgh.

C. Alex Young, associate director for science in NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center’s Heliophysics Science Division, said in an email that the sunspot has doubled in size every day for the past three days and is now about 2.5 times the size of Earth.

he also added that the sunspot is producing small solar flares but “does not have the complexity for the largest flares.” There is a 30% chance the sunspot will produce medium-sized flares and a 10% chance it will create large flares

Solar flares have different levels, The smallest are A-class flares, followed by B, C, M and X at the highest strength. Within each letter, the class is a finer scale using numbers, and the higher numbers denote more intensity.

C flares are too weak to have an effect on Earth; however, more powerful M flares may disrupt radio communication at Earth’s poles. At their worst, X flares can disrupt satellites, communication systems, and power grids, resulting in power shortages and outages.

Lower-intensity solar flares are fairly common, but X flares are less so, according to Steenburgh. He estimates that there are about 2,000 M1 flares, 175 X1 flares, and eight X10 flares in a single solar cycle, which lasts about 11 years. There is less than one large solar flare per cycle at X20 or higher. This solar cycle started in December of 2019.

According to Steenburgh, the AR3038 sunspot has caused C flares. Although there have been no M or X flares from this area, he believes more intense flares are possible in the coming week.
