Billions of years from now, the Sun will expand into a red giant star. At that time, it will expand and swallow the Earth’s orbit. Will the Earth be swallowed by the Sun as Venus and Mercury? This question has been a long discussion among astronomers. Will life on Earth remains there when the sun into the White dwarfs?

Based on calculations performed K.-P. Schr ¨ oder and Robert Connon Smith, when the Sun becomes a red giant star, has exceeded even the equator of Mars distance. Thus, the entire planet in the Solar System will be swallowed by it. There comes a time when an increase in solar flux also increases the average temperature on Earth to a level that does not allow the biological mechanisms and other mechanisms of resistance to these conditions.

When the Sun enters the final stages of the evolution of life, he will experience a loss of mass through stellar winds. And when the sun grows (enlarges in size), it will lose mass so that the planets move around it spiral out. Again the question is how the Earth? Will the Sun is being expanded to take over the planets are moving spiral, or even Venus and Earth would escape from his clutches?

How Earth Come To Be

Years ago the Gods would always fight. But one day the wind God said” we must stop fighting, We have to work together We must be friends we have to make something that all of us can agree on.”. So all of the Gods made a truce and they started to make something. At first it was just round but now it had new stuff on it like mountains, hills, trees, plants, grass, lakes, sand, clouds, air, rocks, snow, ponds, oceans, rivers, valleys, forests. The Gods thought they were done but they had to pick something to live on it, All of the Gods agreed that the humans and animals should live on this thing that all of the Gods created. As years passed the humans had made different things like houses, farms, pets, markets, stores, clothing, boats, food, fishing nets and a lot of other things. One day, one of the humans had a baby and when that baby grew up he named this thing that they had been living on. The name was ‘Earth’. After the word had spread, all of the humans argeed that it shall be called Earth.

    AND THAT IS HOW THE EARTH CAME TO BE

By: D. Crockett

      His name was Michel de Nostradamus. He was born in France in 1503. He was known by the locals to be a healer. He is well known, even today, for his future predictions that came true. Around 1550, he started his writings and prophecies. He would get a bowl of water and would meditate for long hours. He said he would see what was to become. He became well known for this and the locals began to come to him and ask for predictions and horoscopes. He then, began to write quatrains. These are wrote in four lines per quatrain. Many people have discovered that most of his predictions have came true. To be honest, he has been very accurate. He predicted the French Revolution, the rise of Napoleon, the assassination of JFK, and even the World Trade Center attacks. He put all his quatrains into a book called “The Prophecies”. Many astrologers are astonished by the truth of his predictions.

     Nostradamus became a doctor over time and started his own practice. Many people from the country would travel long distanced just to see him. Many of the locals, were amazed of how he healed the sick. The word spread very fast and soon he was seeing people from different country’s. But, when the plague hit France, a tragic accident happened. His wife and child became sick and lost their lives. Nostradamus put blame on himself, for not being able to cure him. Soon after, many of the locals questioned his practice. They figured if he couldn’t save his own family, why should they take the chance. After this, he began his writings.

2012 PREDICTIONS

      One of the many 2012 quatrains describe a massive scale of destruction, brought forth upon Earth by a comet. There are many people that read and interpret these quatrains. They all agree that a comet will be the cause of the destruction of Earth, whether it hits Earth or just comes close. They say that there will be massive floods and destructive earthquakes when this happens. They believe that the date is clear and without question. December 2012. Now, the Mayans predicted this same outcome of global destruction. The Mayans were highly regarded as the astrologers of their time. This is one of those quatrains. “In the sky will be seen a great fire dragging a tail of sparks”. Many people believe this to be Nostradamus referring to a comet. This is the part that is scary. They say that the comet will be almost as big as the planet Jupiter. For those who don’t know, Jupiter is the biggest planet in our Solar System. You could fit over 1,000 Earth’s in the diameter of Jupiter. That is a big comet. All we would see in the sky is this big comet. It would be dark for days upon it’s arrival. If it would hit Earth, nothing would survive. The Earth would no longer be a planet. There would be no way to stop it, if it is that size. It is not stated by Nostradamus whether the comet will hit Earth or not, but even if it doesn’t, we will still see catastrophic disaster. Because of the gravity of the massive comet, it would cause huge waves and earthquakes. Almost all of the coastal cities, such as New York, San Diego, and Miami, would be no more. The impact of the waves could be felt hundred of miles upon land.

     He also predicts, because of all the destruction, stronger countries will take advantage of this chaos. He points out China in another one of his quatrains, referred to as the “Mogul”. When you think about the current situation, China is now ahead of the US as the supreme economy. It all really makes perfect sense. He says this in another one of his quatrains. “The Great Star will blaze for Seven Days”. Many of us that have seen a comet, know that every comet has a tail of fire. Nostradamus is saying that a comet will be seen on Earth, before contact, for seven full days. Even in his situation, to see this happening in the future, he had to shake his head. I can only imagine looking and seeing this huge comet in the outline of the sky. I think it would be a helpless feeling to have.

GOD AND NOSTRADAMUS

      There are many people that believe Nostradamus and God are one in the same. They think that God came to Nostradamus and gave him the power to warn people. When you think about it, many of his quatrains relate to the Revelations writings in the Bible. Both of them, describe disaster by a comet. Could it be possible that God gave Nostradamus his ability to see in the future? We may never know but we do know this. Nostradamus has predicted many future events that happened. He even predicted the rise and fall of Hitler. He has been accurate. All of these writings are from the 1500’s. He predicted the 2001 World Trade bombings. That is 500 years in between. He is surely one of the most famous people in history, Whether you believe or not, I guess we will have to wait until December 2012 to see what happens

This is the star that acts as a giant water cannon.
Every second it sends out one hundred million times more water than is found throughout the Amazon River.

80 times a bullet.

When the researchers then studied the star, they discovered that huge amounts of water poured out of its north and south pole.

Equivalent to the amount that extends one hundred million times the amount of water Amazon River is composed of, said Lars Kristensen to National Geographic.

And the speed at which the water escapes into space is huge:

- We’re talking about speeds reaching 200 000 kilometers per hour, which is 80 times faster than bullets from a machine gun, said Kristensen.

The Star is Young

Researchers at a Dutch university is behind the discovery of the star, located in the northern part of the constellation Perseus. The star is young – only a few hundred thousand years old.

Raffaele was made a knight of the order of the crown of Italy by Benito Mussolini because he was taken very seriously by Benito. Raffaele was born into a very poor family and after school he set out to become a watchmakers apprentice. He was passionate about astronomy and geophysics so he built his own telescope and seismographs.

He worked as a mechanic in the 1st world war then he joined the Italian Seismology Society. During his studies he lowered himself into a deep cave in the Apennines mountains to take measurements and readings.

He also claimed to have discovered a new planet in between Mercury and the Sun which he named Faenza because that was what his home town was called.

He left some writings after his death and people attempted to burn them however two dates were left over…2011 and 2012. However the dates were just dates and there were no places with them!!!!!!!

My experience with aliens was just like anybody elses. I saw flashing lights and a shape (known as a UFO). It happened on Boxing day at 2 am in the morning. I went onto my front porch with a mug of coffee in my hand. I looked into the sky and there it was, flying about 70ft in the air. It moved really quick then just disappeared.

When people think of aliens, they think of weird shaped, green skinned, big-black eyed beast. Remember, it could be anything. Sci-fi films has lead us on to think of that, but truly, they could just be exactly like us.

Take care

The comet, a size equivalent to half Manhattan, downtown New York, was at a speed of 3.8624 mph at one point was only 180 km away from the Stardust-NExT - closer than the scientists calculated .

The initial estimate was that 72 photos would be made, but mission controllers on the ground were even puzzled by the order of images, what went wrong. The first five were close-ups of the nucleus of Tempel 1. Instead pictures of the comet appeared as if only a tiny point in space.

“We still do not fully understand why this did not work the way we planned, “ said ChrisJones, associate director of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, who accompanied the mission.

All images were stored on board the fly by made by Stardust-Next. ”They are not lost, “said Jones.

Comets are like living archives of space, because they may contain material that would give clues on how to successfully sued the birth of the Solar System.

Getting a tan (or, indeed stepping outside) has just gotten expensive.  Angeles Duran of Spain has registered ownership of the Sun with a local notary public and is now in possession of an official document that states she is the “owner of the Sun, a star of spectral type G2, located in the centre of the solar system, located at an average distance from Earth of about 149,600,000 kilometres.”  And she plans to charge people for using it. 

When asked about this rather unusual way of generating money, Angeles responded by assuring us that she backed her claim legally, is not stupid, she knows the law. She did it but anyone else could have done it, it simply occurred to her first.  Of course now Angeles will have to find a way to collect all that money.  I wish her all the best with that.

But in the meantime, anyone who is suffering from skin cancer, UV rays, and other negative effects that result from the sun’s radiation have someone they can sue for damages: one Angeles Duran, 49, of Spain otherwise known as “owner of the Sun.”  The pessimist in me suspects that the lawsuits for damages will come a bit faster than any earnings Duran might (or, more probably might not) collect.

After all, there are quite a few people on this planet who, like Angeles, are also not stupid and know the law—and more importantly know lawyers.

Have you ever wondered what will happen if the Sun suddenly vanishes? There will be a long, never-ending night with extremely cold weather. Such conditions are unfavorable for the existence of life on Earth.

 All plants and animals need light and heat of the Sun to survive. They also need water. The heat generated by the Sun melts the ice and turns it into water. The other planets in the Solar system do not have water; hence they are devoid of life.

Phenomenon of day and night

The Earth spins on its axis while traveling around the Sun. it turns once every 24 hours, causing day and night.

The part of Earth facing the Sun will be said to have day time. The other side being away from the Sun, will be dark. It will be night there. As the Earth spins, the part of Earth having day turns away from the Sun causing night time in that part.

Rotation of Earth on its axis causes day and night
