MORE ELECTRIC UNIVERSE
When planetary bodies travel sufficiently close
to each other within a solar environment filled with charge-carrying plasma,
sparks fly.

What memories of awesome stellar events are echoed down through time
by our legends and our myths? |
Artist's hunch: Thunderbolts of Zeus
Sketchy notion here, but troublesome visions that
force me to do what artists do, ILLUSTRATE!
Recent
solar flares are anomalous--all the indexes go wacko at once including
Kp which should take 2 or three days delay.
Only thing that could cause this is proximity of
radiant source. So I think something(s) else is approaching, BIG, and getting
closer and closer. Maybe this (these) objects harmonically step-relay energy
from sun, either that or they create force field by themselves. The controversial
Saturn
Theory declares that two objects of mass nearing will cause electrical
discharge.
ASTEROID (BELOW)
OR...SOMETHING ELSE?

SUN CAPTURED A COSMIC BODY?
Then the object moved out and away from the sun.
It's movement was difficult to track, due to missing SOHO pictures and the
visual limitations of the SOHO satellite. In other words, we had no clue
where it went. Then on the24th of June an amazing thing occurred. The images
abruptly stopped.

AWESOME NOTE FROM ORBIT READER
I have been looking at several different sites pertaining
to asteroids. There is one "Asteroids and Comets News Updated" the
address is
http://www.phoenixat.com/~vnn2/bull.htm.
Anyway, if you scroll down the page to August 31,1998, there is mention
of the discovery of an asteroid 1998 QS52. It states this chunk of rock is
possibly up to 5 kilometers in circumference. The first day of observation
the closest approach to earth was stated to be.003 AU, I believe. It gave
that as 280,000 miles. Then it states that was altered the following day
to closest approach at .009 AU. The site terms this a "global or lunar killer--a
possible civilization destroyer." I have found this on the charts.
The only thing that I am able to understand is (I think) that its closest
approach will be 1-22-99. Could you look at this and let us know if
there is anything to be concerned with. (Like what could we do anyway?) And
tell if there are any other pertinent facts you could find. All I can find
are the charts that I don't understand.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Having difficulty extracting data,
such as size of the asteroid. Any assistance appreciated.
