I år är det Internationella rymdåret och i förrgår svepte en stor nyupptäckt asteroid förbi jorden. Den upptäcktes för mindre än en vecka sedan och kom väldigt nära jorden, med rymdmått mätt. Asteroiden, kallad 2009 DD45, rusade förbi 7.480 mil från jorden, vilket är ungefär dubbelt så högt som de geostationära satelliterna och betydligt närmare än månen. Avståndet är mindre än en femtedel av avståndet till månen. Forskarna tror att asteroiden var mellan 20 och 50 meter bred, alltså i storlek med den förmodade Tunguska-asteroiden som är den största kända kollisionen mellan jorden och en annan himlakropp under de senaste 100.000 åren.

När en så stor asteroid slår ner orsakar det en enorm förödelse. År 1908 slog något ner i Tunguska i Sibirien, och även om det ännu inte har kunnat fastställas vilken typ av himlakropp det var, så lutar man i forskarkretsar åt att det var en c:a 30 m bred asteroid. Vad det än var så utraderades ett skogsområde på drygt 2.000 kvadratkilometer (vilket är betydligt större än hela stor-London - med alla dess 32 stadsdelar).

Nedslagsplatsen i Tunguska undersöktes första gången 1927 av Leonid A Kuliks expedition. Nedslaget beräknas ha motsvarat 40 megaton trotyl, vilket kan jämföras med atombomben i Hiroshima som motsvarade 0,0125 megatons sprängverkan… (en fis i rymden alltså).  Asteroidnedslaget i Arizona för c:a 50.000 år sedan har uppskattats till ca 3,5 megaton. Tunguska-nedslaget var enkelt uttryckt en attans stor smäll… Inget man önskar sig över tättbebyggda områden med andra ord… Hade Tunguska-nedslaget slagit ned några timmar senare hade det mesta av norra Europa förmodligen upphört existera då den slagit ner i höjd med Helsingfors och Oslo. Ett nedslag i Östersjön kunde fått katastrofala verkningar… Förmodligen hade all civilisation i Skandinavien upphört att existera som vi känner den och frågan är om norra Tyskland, Polen och andra Östersjöstater hade klarat sig. Vi får vara glada att asteroiden missade oss i förrgår…

Även om DD45 är det närmaste som väntas i mars så är den dock inte ensam, under mars månad finns det över 10 olika asteroider i jordens närhet. Man räknar med att det finns 1035 potentiella farliga himlakroppar nära jorden och det upptäcks hela tiden nya.

Den 50.000 år gamla kratern i Arizona, 1,2 km i diameter, 200 m djup - c:a 3,5 megatons sprängverkan mot de 40 megaton i Tunguska. Dock finns ingen krater i Tunguska…

Duck and cover - won’t help. The worlds biggest experiment has now kicked in and we’ll see if we are here to talk about it tomorrow. The worlds biggest particel accelerator was fired up at 9.30 local time in Geneva, Switzerland. The European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) stand behind the experiment that has been called “the Doomsday experiment”. Fully operational it will give the beams of particles the same energy as a car driving in 1.600 km/h… (this is a LOT of energy).

Some fear that they might open up a black hole - and that is of course bad news for us all… But the scientists say it won’t be a problem. The black holes created are so small and will vanish in no time at all “almost before they are created”. Sounds like a time-machine…

Without sounding like a Dooms-day prophet, I’d just like to point out that the scintists that flicked the switch to the first atom bomb, did so without knowing the true effects. They didn’t know for sure that the chain-reaction wouldn’t create a chain-reaction that would blow up the hole planet, maybe the galaxy. Still they pushed the button. (OK, here goes. Let’s see what happens now - flick, click, KAAAAAA-BOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM).

A 27 kilometers long ring, 90 meters under ground. Today it will only test-drive. But very soon paricles are made to collide and a black hole might be the result.

The Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the Ministry of Art & Jump, might think that Earth is shrinking! In Bonn, Germany, researchers revealed last summer that the planet is smaller than we thought. The last measurement was five years ago, and when the two measurements was compared – the difference is half a centimeter.

German scientists from the University of Bonn took part in an international project to measure the diameter of the world and came up with the 5 mm decrease. The scientists rounded the diameter of the Earth up to 12,756.274 kilometers (7,926.3812 miles) for the general public.

Though it may appear a trifling difference, Axel Nothnagel, who led the researchers, said the difference is crucial in the study of climate change. “It may seem a very small difference, but it is essential for the positioning of the satellites that can measure rises in sea level,” he said. “They must be accurate to the millimeter. If the ground stations tracking the satellites are not accurate to the millimeter, then the satellites cannot be accurate either.”

The system of measurement used by the Bonn geodesists (geoscientists who study the size of the Earth) in the two-year project consisted of radio waves that were transmitted into space. “A network of more than 70 radio telescopes worldwide receives these waves. Because the gauging stations are so far apart from each other, the radio signals are received with a slight time lag,” Nothnagel said. “From this difference we can measure the distance between the radio telescopes to the preciseness of two millimeters per 1,000 km.” The procedure is called Very Long Baseline Interferometry or VLBI. The technique can be used, for example, to demonstrate that Europe and North America are moving apart at a rate of about 18 mm a year. The findings were reported in the Journal of Geodesy.

The other night swedish television broadcasted the film “Who Killed the Electric Car?” And everyone that (like the Minister) was upset about the nasty story about the GM EV1 can smile again. Luckily there are other companies than GM that builds and manufacture electrical cars. In fact building electric cars that will give most regular cars (diesel or gasoline) a hell of a match and at the same time change the whole concept of human travel.

The Tesla Motors are working on a whole range of electric cars that will make you travel without pollutions in the future. Right now they are promoting their top-of-the-line model but they are also planning on making more and less expensive models in a near future. Read all about it at their own website.

The Ministry proving ground was struck by disaster the other day. Due to an abnorm raining this summer the pond at the proving ground is flooded over it’s general limits. The pond is being used for several testing and training. It’s the perfect spot for HopArt-training for example.

Never before has the water level been so high, which has resulted in a disaster for the floating island located at the Ministry pond. One morning it was discovered floating upside down after an obvious capsize. The high level must have changed the location of the support in some way so the island keeled over. Further investigations has to be made before we can comment on the cause.

The high water level has also been combined with an unusual heat. Last night the Ministry experienced a very warm night with the lowest temperature of 19 degrees Celsius (66.2 Fahrenheit). Can this mean that that thing everybody is talking about (Global Warming) is really true and that it hit the Ministry?

The capsized floating island at the Ministry proving ground. All that’s visible is a little glimpse in the middle of the pond of the turned over island and it’s pontoons.

We have talked about GW before here (Global Warming) and all of a sudden we stumbled on this magnificent idea that a distinguished member in the Ladoninan Cabinet came up with. If this works it’s outstanding news! We recommend that the inventor get a patent on this - yesterday… The Whitehouse will eat this up! We should set this up on a greater scale. Everyone should try to follow the instructions. The Ministry thinks that connecting the operating refrigerators to wind and solar powered batteries might add to the idea. That way we’ll let mother nature take care of it herself. (The Bush Administration likes that rhetoric).

So, what’s all this we hear about a Global Warming, and the “not-a-global-warming”? There seems to be a vast amount of weird opinions on the matter. Sometimes one hear data about warmer climate here in Sweden for about 5000 years ago. If it was warmer then, could this talk about global warming be just rubbish? Just a natural fluctuation? Seems weird. On the other hand news has it that US President G.W. Bush and his Administration (sorry for cursing) has intimidated scientist for years now and even changing reports about global warming… The Ministry will dive right into this matter - so stay tuned. By the way, is it just a freak chance that Mr Bush has the initials “G.W.” (Global Warming)?

The Global Consciousness Project (http://noosphere.princeton.edu), runs a network of Random Event Generators (REGs) around the world, which record changes in randomness during global events. The results show that human consciousness can be measured to have a global effect on matter and energy during widely-watched events such as 9/11 and the Indian Ocean tsunami. There have also been measurable results during mass meditations and prayers.

The Zero Point Field or Quantum Field surrounds and is part of everything in the universe. It can be affected by human consciousness, as can be seen when simple observation of a subatomic particle changes the particle’s state.
“We hope that a huge influx of physical, mental and spiritual energy with conscious peaceful intent will not only show up on Princeton’s REGs, but will have profound positive effects that will change the violent state of the human world.”

To effect positive change in the energy field of the Earth through input of the largest possible surge of human energy a Synchronized Global Orgasm. (There are two more US fleets heading for the Persian Gulf with anti-submarine equipment that can only be for use against Iran, so the time to change Earth’s energy is NOW!)

Today on Winter Solstice Day - Friday, December 22nd, is the time to join in on the G.O. In the place of your choosing and with as much privacy as you choose, and at a time of your choosing. If you want to synchronice it go to the homepage to get a countdown-clock. The people behind the event wants everyone to join the project everywhere in the world, especially in countries with weapons of mass destruction.

(Note how cunningly the artist have created the effect that the figure’s eyes will look upon you even if viewed from the side).

The result of the jump from World Jump Day are here! (Finally) We have been anticipating the results for some time now from Fulda, Germany. Here it is, read more on the WJD homepage.

After analysis of all major seismographic and satellite data we have to conclude that the World Jump on the 20 July 2006 11.39.16 GMT has not caused any permanent changes in the orbital positioning or rotation of the planet earth.

Nevertheless there are scientific results suggesting that the jump had temporary effects resulting in an unusual drop of the average global temperature by drop by 0.09 degrees Celsius around 11.40:27 GMT.

Momentary partial orbital shift = 532,6 m - Momentary partial axial shift = 2.879

Furthermore, there is seismographic recordings which suggest that the highest concentration of jumpers were in Germany, Brazil, Argentina, Italy and Portugal.

Dr. Hans Niesward, who has been intensively criticized for his theory, concluded that only the uneven participation from country to country has limited the impact of the jump. He said in a recent interview:
“…if only everybody had participated like the Brazilians, the WJD (World Jump Day) theory would have been proven right…”

The calculations for the “World Jump Day” (as we have told about earlier) is taking a bit longer than expected in Fulda, Germany. We are waiting for the result and will report on the matter as soon as possible.
