Libra Sun Sign - Zodiac Signs
BY ASTROLOGY.COM NOVEMBER 20, 2009 05:00 PM EST
Libra is the seventh sign of the zodiac, and it's at this point in the zodiac that we start to see a shift. While the first six signs of the zodiac focus on the individual, the last six focus on the individual's contact with others and with the world. Libras are first and foremost focused on others and how they relate to them. We can call this the sign of Partnership with a capital 'P' because these folks do not want to be alone! For a Libra, everything is better if it's done as a pair. Libras are good when paired up, too, since they epitomize balance, harmony and a sense of fair play. While they are true team players at work, their favorite partnership is at home: marriage. Libras feel most complete when they are coupled up with their lover, forever.
It's the Scales that symbolize Libra, and just like that balancing mechanism wants to stay even, Libras want to be on an even keel. Think of the Scales of Justice and how they work at striking the right balance. Likewise, Libras are objective, just and want to do what's best for everyone. It's possible, though, that this penchant for fairness is for a different reason: Libras abhor conflict. The scales study every possible angle in the hopes of achieving peace and harmony, so much so that others may see them as fickle and indecisive. If that's what it takes to avoid a confrontation, that's fine with the Scales. The Libra-born are keen strategists, organizing groups with poise and getting the job done (in keeping with the Cardinal Quality assigned to this sign). Further, you can expect the Scales to be companionable, sociable folks.
Libra is ruled by Venus. In ancient Roman mythology, Venus was a smooth seductress who was at her best amid pleasurable excess. Well, Libras are certainly carrying the torch for her today. The Scales are cultured, refined and love beautiful things. Most of all, they love beautiful people, which is why Libras do so well at cocktail parties or at the theater, opera or ballet. Those born under this sign always have the right thing to say and know how to make others feel comfortable. Suave? You bet. Libras are so adept at charming conversation that they need to be mindful of overstepping their boundaries and appearing vain or gossipy (the Scales do love intrigue). When these folks are on their game, however, they are a pleasure to be with. Libras are artistic, stylish and enjoy creating a beautiful world. The converse of this is that bored Libras can become apathetic and lazy -- but they'll smile anyway.
The element associated with Libra is Air, and that means reaching higher, specifically to the higher mind. Libras like to put their mind to good use, and enjoy communicating their thoughts to others. They like to use their smarts (and talk) to get to know others better -- yes, knowledge about people is where it's at for Libras. You can expect the Scales to make a fair argument, too, since they live by the principles of diplomacy and compromise. When this approach doesn't work, however, Libras are not above using their persuasive charms to get their way. Manipulative? Nah, Libras really are too nice for that. Plus, any end-runs that these folks use are usually to build themselves up, since the Scales can be easily deterred. Libras are polite and don't like to fight, far preferring to talk things through. Remember, these folks know how to communicate (they're Air) so they're bound to make their point. Libras don't get in a huff when faced with an opposing viewpoint. Rather, they take a deep breath and consider all the options in the spirit of cooperation.
Libras at play may not be as energized as at work, if you call socializing work (and the Scales do). That's why exercise for Libras needs to have a social component to it, such as that found at a gym. Alternatively, Libras love the outdoors, so riding and biking can also prove fun. They also love the colors of the sunset sky, that melding of ivory, pink and light blue. In the game of love, Libras are a bundle of energy, romantic and loyal to the core. The Scales need to be on the lookout for their lower backs, though, which tend to shoulder any burdens they may be carrying.
The great strength of the Libra-born is their quest for fairness, peace and harmony. That the Scales are the great diplomats of the zodiac further helps their case. A beautiful journey this will be, thanks to the Libra's inimitable sense of style.

:huh:the first real words of planet x and a second sun at sunrise. this will be a new change. the last 5 years all eyes are on the sw and west. now we will look to the east for the new star that leads to a manger.. :roll:
THE MORNING PLANET SHOW: Planets are gathering in the morning sky. Venus and Jupiter have recently emerged as morning "stars," rising in the east ahead of the sun, joining Mars in an array of lights that lets early risers view 1/3rd of the solar system at a glance. The display will continue--and improve--as autumn unfolds. This was the view on Sept. 10th:
Jean-Baptiste Feldmann took the picture from Nuits-Saint-Georges, France, just before sunrise on Thursday. At the time, the crescent Moon was passing by Venus en route to Jupiter, adding its luster to that of the planets. "It was a beautiful view," says Feldmann.
More scenes like this are in the offing. On Oct. 8th the crescent Moon will have another close encounter with Venus (sky map), followed one day later by a near miss of Jupiter and Mars (sky map). Every morning thereafter, the planets will converge until Oct. 24th - Oct. 29th when they fit within a circle only 5o wide (sky maps: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6). Typical binoculars can see a patch of sky about 6o or 7o degrees wide. So when the triangle of planets shrinks to 5o, they will fit together inside a binocular field of view. Imagine looking through the eyepiece and seeing three planets--all at once.
By the time October comes to an end, the planetary triangle will start breaking apart. But there are still two dates of special interest: Nov. 6th and 7th (sky maps: #1, #2). On those increasingly wintry mornings, the crescent Moon will swoop in among the dispersing planets for a loose but beautiful conjunction.
Look east before sunrise. There's a lot to see.

simple observation. over the past 5 years i had discovered when a earth quake rumble from plate movement it does not show up half way around the world at the same moment..
when we look at a plot every play is effected. that is very odd, adding to the cause and effect chain of ice age model.
now for the last 5 years Venus enjoyed the western sky. now we have a sun rise,in the east, but the planet Venus and also Jupiter will rise before the sun. making the planets totally invisible due to sun light at sun rise.
i tell you now only a greater the sun brightness object could be visible in the early hours of dawn. THEREFORE THE FACTS WILL BE AS FOLLOW.
a brighter then sun object at sunrise. concluding this to be temple one comet, the sun disk itself. but dont fail to see the M class star as it is. a conductor that interacts with the sun causing a cme discharge between the gap.

Series of quakes hit off Mexico's west coast, no damage reported
Reuters

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A series of earthquakes, including one of magnitude 6.6, struck in waters off the west coast of Mexico early on Sunday, but there were no immediate reports of any damage.
The 6.6 magnitude quake, which the U.S. Geological Survey initially reported at a magnitude of 6.8, struck at sea around 106 km (66 miles) southwest of Los Mochis, Sinaloa, at a depth of 10 km.
There were three other smaller quakes nearby, ranging in magnitude from 4.9 to 5.3.
"The biggest one felt reasonably strong, but there have been no reports of damage," an emergency services official said by telephone from Los Mochis, which is located in northern Sinaloa, and sits across the Gulf of California from the south of the Baja California peninsula.

DOUBLE ECLIPSE OF THE SUN: On Sept. 13th, the sun was eclipsed--twice! No one on Earth has ever seen anything like it. Indeed, it was only visible from Earth orbit. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) recorded the event:
The double eclipse began around 06:30 UT when Earth passed directly between the sun and SDO. The observatory watched as the body of our planet moved slowly across the face of the sun, producing a near black-out. When the Earth finally moved aside about an hour later, another eclipse was in progress. This time, the Moon was in the way. A movie from the SDO science team explains the crazy-perfect alignment required for such a view.
(In the snaphots above, note how the edge of the Earth looks so much fuzzier than the edge of the Moon. That's because our planet has an atmosphere and the Moon does not.)
Meanwhile on Earth, an ordinary partial eclipse was visible. People in South Africa and parts of Antarctica saw the Moon pass in front of the sun, off-center, producing crescent-shaped shadows and strange sunrises.

Aso volcano (Kyushu, Japan): strong, dangerous explosion this morning with pyroclastic flows
Mon, 14 Sep 2015, 16:04
Eruption of Aso volcano this morning
A powerful explosion occurred this morning from the Nakadake crater, producing a dense ash cloud that collapsed into several pyroclastic flows and rose approx. 2 km above the crater.
The eruption which occurred at 09:43 local time came with apparently little or no warning. It is not known whether it was a magmatic (involving fresh magma) or phreatic explosion (driven by overheated steam). During the past weeks, the volcano had been relatively calm, only showing occasional ash venting, strong degassing and weak glow visible at night from the main vent.

The first quake’s epicenter was about 34 miles west of Illapel, Chile, USGS said. It occurred around 3:54 p.m. PT and had a depth of 15.5 miles.
It was initially reported as a magnitude-7.9 quake, but that was upgraded to 8.3, according to USGS.
The initial quake was followed at 4:18 p.m. PT by a magnitude-6.4 earthquake closer to land, about 16 miles west of Illapel.
“Widespread hazardous tsunami waves are possible” along the coast of Chile and Peru, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said.
Chile’s emergency office tweeted that the process was underway to evacuate people along Chile’s coast due to a possible tsunami.
A tsunami watch was in effect for the state of Hawaii, and investigation was underway to determine the threat there.
A strong aftershock could be felt in the country’s capital, CNN sister network CNN Chile reported.

Seismotectonics of South America (Nazca Plate Region)
The South American arc extends over 7,000 km, from the Chilean margin triple junction offshore of southern Chile to its intersection with the Panama fracture zone, offshore of the southern coast of Panama in Central America. It marks the plate boundary between the subducting Nazca plate and the South America plate, where the oceanic crust and lithosphere of the Nazca plate begin their descent into the mantle beneath South America. The convergence associated with this subduction process is responsible for the uplift of the Andes Mountains, and for the active volcanic chain present along much of this deformation front. Relative to a fixed South America plate, the Nazca plate moves slightly north of eastwards at a rate varying from approximately 80 mm/yr in the south to approximately 65 mm/yr in the north. Although the rate of subduction varies little along the entire arc, there are complex changes in the geologic processes along the subduction zone that dramatically influence volcanic activity, crustal deformation, earthquake generation and occurrence all along the western edge of South America.
Most of the large earthquakes in South America are constrained to shallow depths of 0 to 70 km resulting from both crustal and interplate deformation. Crustal earthquakes result from deformation and mountain building in the overriding South America plate and generate earthquakes as deep as approximately 50 km. Interplate earthquakes occur due to slip along the dipping interface between the Nazca and the South American plates. Interplate earthquakes in this region are frequent and often large, and occur between the depths of approximately 10 and 60 km. Since 1900, numerous magnitude 8 or larger earthquakes have occurred on this subduction zone interface that were followed by devastating tsunamis, including the 1960 M9.5 earthquake in southern Chile, the largest instrumentally recorded earthquake in the world. Other notable shallow tsunami-generating earthquakes include the 1906 M8.5 earthquake near Esmeraldas, Ecuador, the 1922 M8.5 earthquake near Coquimbo, Chile, the 2001 M8.4 Arequipa, Peru earthquake, the 2007 M8.0 earthquake near Pisco, Peru, and the 2010 M8.8 Maule, Chile earthquake located just north of the 1960 event.
Large intermediate-depth earthquakes (those occurring between depths of approximately 70 and 300 km) are relatively limited in size and spatial extent in South America, and occur within the Nazca plate as a result of internal deformation within the subducting plate. These earthquakes generally cluster beneath northern Chile and southwestern Bolivia, and to a lesser extent beneath northern Peru and southern Ecuador, with depths between 110 and 130 km. Most of these earthquakes occur adjacent to the bend in the coastline between Peru and Chile. The most recent large intermediate-depth earthquake in this region was the 2005 M7.8 Tarapaca, Chile earthquake.
Earthquakes can also be generated to depths greater than 600 km as a result of continued internal deformation of the subducting Nazca plate. Deep-focus earthquakes in South America are not observed from a depth range of approximately 300 to 500 km. Instead, deep earthquakes in this region occur at depths of 500 to 650 km and are concentrated into two zones: one that runs beneath the Peru-Brazil border and another that extends from central Bolivia to central Argentina. These earthquakes generally do not exhibit large magnitudes. An exception to this was the 1994 Bolivian earthquake in northwestern Bolivia. This M8.2 earthquake occurred at a depth of 631 km, which was until recently the largest deep-focus earthquake instrumentally recorded (superseded in May 2013 by a M8.3 earthquake 610 km beneath the Sea of Okhotsk, Russia), and was felt widely throughout South and North America.
Subduction of the Nazca plate is geometrically complex and impacts the geology and seismicity of the western edge of South America. The intermediate-depth regions of the subducting Nazca plate can be segmented into five sections based on their angle of subduction beneath the South America plate. Three segments are characterized by steeply dipping subduction; the other two by near-horizontal subduction. The Nazca plate beneath northern Ecuador, southern Peru to northern Chile, and southern Chile descend into the mantle at angles of 25° to 30°. In contrast, the slab beneath southern Ecuador to central Peru, and under central Chile, is subducting at a shallow angle of approximately 10° or less. In these regions of “flat-slab” subduction, the Nazca plate moves horizontally for several hundred kilometers before continuing its descent into the mantle, and is shadowed by an extended zone of crustal seismicity in the overlying South America plate. Although the South America plate exhibits a chain of active volcanism resulting from the subduction and partial melting of the Nazca oceanic lithosphere along most of the arc, these regions of inferred shallow subduction correlate with an absence of volcanic activity.

Seismotectonics of South America (Nazca Plate Region)
The South American arc extends over 7,000 km, from the Chilean margin triple junction offshore of southern Chile to its intersection with the Panama fracture zone, offshore of the southern coast of Panama in Central America. It marks the plate boundary between the subducting Nazca plate and the South America plate, where the oceanic crust and lithosphere of the Nazca plate begin their descent into the mantle beneath South America. The convergence associated with this subduction process is responsible for the uplift of the Andes Mountains, and for the active volcanic chain present along much of this deformation front. Relative to a fixed South America plate, the Nazca plate moves slightly north of eastwards at a rate varying from approximately 80 mm/yr in the south to approximately 65 mm/yr in the north. Although the rate of subduction varies little along the entire arc, there are complex changes in the geologic processes along the subduction zone that dramatically influence volcanic activity, crustal deformation, earthquake generation and occurrence all along the western edge of South America.
Most of the large earthquakes in South America are constrained to shallow depths of 0 to 70 km resulting from both crustal and interplate deformation. Crustal earthquakes result from deformation and mountain building in the overriding South America plate and generate earthquakes as deep as approximately 50 km. Interplate earthquakes occur due to slip along the dipping interface between the Nazca and the South American plates. Interplate earthquakes in this region are frequent and often large, and occur between the depths of approximately 10 and 60 km. Since 1900, numerous magnitude 8 or larger earthquakes have occurred on this subduction zone interface that were followed by devastating tsunamis, including the 1960 M9.5 earthquake in southern Chile, the largest instrumentally recorded earthquake in the world. Other notable shallow tsunami-generating earthquakes include the 1906 M8.5 earthquake near Esmeraldas, Ecuador, the 1922 M8.5 earthquake near Coquimbo, Chile, the 2001 M8.4 Arequipa, Peru earthquake, the 2007 M8.0 earthquake near Pisco, Peru, and the 2010 M8.8 Maule, Chile earthquake located just north of the 1960 event.
Large intermediate-depth earthquakes (those occurring between depths of approximately 70 and 300 km) are relatively limited in size and spatial extent in South America, and occur within the Nazca plate as a result of internal deformation within the subducting plate. These earthquakes generally cluster beneath northern Chile and southwestern Bolivia, and to a lesser extent beneath northern Peru and southern Ecuador, with depths between 110 and 130 km. Most of these earthquakes occur adjacent to the bend in the coastline between Peru and Chile. The most recent large intermediate-depth earthquake in this region was the 2005 M7.8 Tarapaca, Chile earthquake.
Earthquakes can also be generated to depths greater than 600 km as a result of continued internal deformation of the subducting Nazca plate. Deep-focus earthquakes in South America are not observed from a depth range of approximately 300 to 500 km. Instead, deep earthquakes in this region occur at depths of 500 to 650 km and are concentrated into two zones: one that runs beneath the Peru-Brazil border and another that extends from central Bolivia to central Argentina. These earthquakes generally do not exhibit large magnitudes. An exception to this was the 1994 Bolivian earthquake in northwestern Bolivia. This M8.2 earthquake occurred at a depth of 631 km, which was until recently the largest deep-focus earthquake instrumentally recorded (superseded in May 2013 by a M8.3 earthquake 610 km beneath the Sea of Okhotsk, Russia), and was felt widely throughout South and North America.

An eruptive event yesterday produced an ash plume that rose from what could be a new lateral vent on the lower northern (?) flank of the volcano.
Although the photo sent to us looks rather like an ash plume that originated from the front of an avalanche that departed at low level, local sources insist on having observed a new vent. [less]

although we had a 6.8 quake and a few more rambling ons, there remains one coincidence. a high probability for 7.0 plus plus great quake .
therefore a 10 day watch is posted as part of cause and effect chain. it remains true volcanic eruption on a large scale. and the next 10 day will produce eye popping results once again..

since when are u the gestapo? you don't known ANYTHING 100 % this is my pet project predictions years in advance...
so what are you trying to say that 450 plus pages of proof and data log all comes down to 1 great quake?
If you know for sure there is a 48 hour window where a "great quake" will occur beginning February 5th, people's lives are at stake. Now suppose you add to this an epicenter and people sell their homes and leave the area prior to this "great quake" only to find themselves in bad circumstances and the "great quake" doesn't occur as you predict. Then what? Are you willing to take responsibility for their lives after making such a prediction?
No, I'm not the Gestapo. Are you Nostradamus?
There is a saying, "With great power comes great responsibility." You are certain your Ice Age Model is correct and accurate, so you must use this knowledge responsibly for the benefit of all. A prediction of this magnitude is well beyond a weatherman's "chance of showers". People that read this thread need to know more than whether they will get wet or not. They need to know you have done your homework and that your predictions will be life changing events they must take seriously and act upon. If you won't back up what you are posting with all of your integrity, then this whole thread is nothing more than dribble that no one should take seriously. You need to decide and let people know which way it is.
there is not any intelligent discussion on ANY OF MY WORK.
truth is there is a succession of quakes. when i last year had predicted a great quake for july, i skipped many days in comparison in the chain.
i also tell when the spark gap is triggered.
20 to 40 days of inaccuracy is acceptable to me. but i never make my predictions that are right in front of my eyes.
its much harder to say in a world of volcanoes and quakes accurately predicting just one explosion in your life time may seem to be a hard task.
and in fact since the onset of ice age model it remains at the forefront for now....
my actual lack of enthusiasm is based on lack of forum members. . 3 active members? 5 or ten.
i say if you are looking at the glass half full then it must remain to fill the glass until the end of said cause and effect chain has any influence on our world.
these i say are about 1 solar cycle. 13 years of observation, 7 remain... this is my study, and due to what had followed must be completed by me witch i claim will verifie Kepler's law...
much has been learned and the ice age model has only scratched the surface. i claim more is in front of your eyes, and you alone can see it..

.:):cool:;) this post was from 2012 so as u see i made statements i keep up on, and understand .
The extreme cold is well established.
It sits like a chair in a pocket of the same.
Its simply up to you to observe.
A change in equilibrium already apparent.
Solar warming sets Earth core a flame.
Like a furnace expanding, breathing, smoking white ashes, the ice age.
Predictable outcome remains time variable.
Earth opens wide. a heated divide. The ice age.
Giant earthquakes, and powerful volcanic eruption..
The axis i pointing, slipping, Earth bouncing, and skipping along.
Spurring Great kingly tides.
An Antarctic breeze.. This ice age.
The water soon pools at its center, with Increasing momentum, causing this sloshing about.
As the chilling rushing winds continue, each new storm mounting there attack against the north.
Like a perpetual winter breeze crossing the equator.
:dodgy::angel::-/
To sustain my curiosity i keep on related. the following is a summery. of scientific information.
conclusions are inline with previous data, and the previous reports. For December, February. through the month of May 2013.
it appears volcanic eruption may be a major concern, as induction works with in the core. the next 4 months should be seriously look at for geo thermal events, and increasing natural gas sulfurdioxide, and methane releases.
core heating will go up substantially in the following months with many large volcanic eruptions. both on earth and the sun. Plasma filaments (solar flares (X and M factor.) due to spark gap position in the ISCM.) binary period of time relation. a ordinary electrical spark Gap trigger is assumed..
earthquakes for the previous cycle should be considered as time variable, and is a signal for the trigger of ice age model.
coastal flooding becomes a major concern. Flooding that has shown to be caused by external precession during the spring, fall, and winter equinox. all have shown them selves as significant.
the predicted time for precession is 6 to 7 years ,at this trigger point. that makes by the Feb 5 2010 solar cycle reversal.
data will be skewed from reporting agency with much of the important information left out.
air quality is a major concern and should be monitored.
winter storm warnings cyclones in effect as angular momentum increases even further in the following weeks, and months.
i hope this is sufficient to explain this angular, inductive, dynamic effect. eddy currents rise is due to axial shift, and resistance. gravity pushing force is in the direction, of increasing potential charge in space. equal, and opposite predicted. solar flare would be high, and Earth magnetosphere anomaly continue.

This is true Rav, Ed could have done it the same way. The bad news is we will probably never know and be left only to assume.
The concept of Ed's PMH does lead one to believe he used this phenomena like glue to hold items in place for extended periods of time without using any generator or battery. Once he had something where he wanted it, he would just tap the device with reverse current and it would let loose.

Aldebaran is classified as a type K5III star, which indicates it is an orange giant star that has moved off the main sequence line of the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram after exhausting the hydrogen at its core. Compression from gravity increased the temperature and pressure at the core until it passed through a helium flash stage, when it began the generation of energy through the triple-alpha fusion process of helium.[9] Additional energy is being produced through hydrogen fusion along a shell surrounding the helium core. As a result of the increase in the core temperature, the star has expanded to a diameter of 44.2 times the diameter of the Sun,[4][10] approximately 61 million kilometres (see 10 gigametres for similar sizes).
The Hipparcos satellite has measured it as 65.1 light years (20.0 pc) away, and it shines with 425 times the Sun's luminosity.[3] Aldebaran is a slightly variable star, of the slow irregular variable type LB. It varies by about 0.2 in apparent magnitude from 0.75 to 0.95.[2] With a near-infrared J band magnitude of −2.1,[1] only Betelgeuse (−2.9), R Doradus (−2.6), and Arcturus (−2.2) are brighter.
Visibility
Aldebaran is one of the easiest stars to find in the night sky, partly due to its brightness and partly due to its spatial relation to one of the more noticeable asterisms in the sky. If one follows the three stars of Orion's belt from left to right (in the Northern Hemisphere) or right to left (in the Southern), the first bright star found by continuing that line is Aldebaran.
Since the star is located (by chance) in the line of sight between the Earth and the Hyades, it has the appearance of being the brightest member of the more scattered Hyades open star cluster that makes up the bull's-head-shaped asterism; however, the star cluster is actually more than twice as far away, at about 150 light years.
In this predawn occultation, Aldebaran has just reappeared on the dark limb of the waning crescent Moon (July 1997 still frame captured from video).
Aldebaran is close enough to the ecliptic to be occulted by the Moon. Such occultations occur when the Moon's ascending node is near the autumnal equinox. A number of such events occur every revolution of the Moon starting at 29 Jan 2015 and ending at 3 Sep 2018. Each event is visible from a different location on Earth, but always in the northern hemisphere (or southern close to the equator). That means that people from Australia or South Africa never can observe an Aldebaran occultation. This is due to the fact that Aldebaran is slightly too far south of the ecliptic. A reasonably accurate estimate for the diameter of Aldebaran was obtained during the September 22, 1978 occultation.[11] Aldebaran is in conjunction with the Sun around June 1 of each year.[12]
Double star
Five faint stars appear close enough to Aldebaran in its visual field for astronomers to consider it[citation needed] a double star association. These stars were given alphabetic secondary star designations more or less in the order of their discovery, with the letter A reserved for the primary star. The better known characteristics of these optical double stars are listed in the table below with the primary star, Aldebaran (Alpha Tauri A), shown for reference.[13]
what can explain the rare partial solar eclipses I captured for 5 days in a row?
to find the obvious
SUPERMOON ECLIPSE: This weekend's full Moon is a "supermoon," as much as 50,000 km closer to Earth than other full Moons of the year. Rising in the east at sunset, the swollen disk will look extremely beautiful... because it is going to be eclipsed. On Sunday evening, Sept. 27th, the supermoon will pass through the shadow of Earth, turning the lunar disk a cosmic shade of red. Click on the image, below, to view an animation of the eclipse and to find out when to look:
What makes the eclipsed Moon turn red? A quick trip to the Moon provides the answer: Imagine yourself standing on a dusty lunar plain looking up at the sky. Overhead hangs Earth, nightside down, completely hiding the sun behind it. The eclipse is underway.
You might expect Earth seen in this way to be utterly dark, but it's not. The rim of the planet looks like it is on fire. As you scan your eye around Earth's circumference, you're seeing every sunrise and every sunset in the world, all of them, all at once. This incredible light beams into the heart of Earth's shadow, filling it with a coppery glow and transforming the Moon into a great red orb.
Red isn't the only color. Sharp-eyed observers might also spot some turquoise, shown here in a photo taken by Jens Hackman during an eclipse in March of 2007:
Its source is ozone. Atmospheric scientist Richard Keen of the University of Colorado explains: "During a lunar eclipse, most of the light illuminating the moon passes through the stratosphere where it is reddened by scattering. However, light passing through the upper stratosphere penetrates the ozone layer, which absorbs red light and actually makes the passing light ray bluer." This can be seen, he says, as a soft blue fringe around the red core of Earth's shadow.
To catch the turquoise on Sept. 27-28, he advises, "look during the first and last minutes of totality. The turquoise rim is best seen in binoculars or a small telescope."
so the question is how did i have the eclipse before they even mentioned it?...
Sept. 22, 2010: For the first time in almost 20 years, northern autumn is beginning on the night of a full Moon. The coincidence sets the stage for a "Super Harvest Moon" and a must-see sky show to mark the change of seasons.
The action begins at sunset on Sept 22nd, the last day of northern summer. As the sun sinks in the west, bringing the season to a close, the full Harvest Moon will rise in the east, heralding the start of fall. The two sources of light will mix together to create a kind of 360-degree, summer-autumn twilight glow that is only seen on rare occasions.

Keep an eye on the Moon as it creeps above the eastern skyline. The golden orb may appear strangely inflated. This is the Moon illusion at work. For reasons not fully understood by astronomers or psychologists, a low-hanging Moon appears much wider than it really is. A Harvest Moon inflated by the moon illusion is simply gorgeous.
The view improves as the night wears on.

Northern summer changes to fall on Sept. 22nd at 11:09 pm EDT. At that precise moment, called the autumnal equinox, the Harvest Moon can be found soaring high overhead with the planet Jupiter right beside it. The two brightest objects in the night sky will be in spectacular conjunction to mark the change in seasons.
The Harvest Moon gets its name from agriculture. In the days before electric lights, farmers depended on bright moonlight to extend the workday beyond sunset. It was the only way they could gather their ripening crops in time for market. The full Moon closest to the autumnal equinox became "the Harvest Moon," and it was always a welcome sight.
This one would be extra welcome because it is extra "Harvesty."
Usually, the Harvest Moon arrives a few days to weeks before or after the beginning of fall. It's close, but not a perfect match. The Harvest Moon of 2010, however, reaches maximum illumination a mere six hours after the equinox. This has led some astronomers to call it the "Harvestest Moon" or a "Super Harvest Moon." There hasn't been a comparable coincidence since Sept 23, 1991, when the difference was about 10 hours, and it won't happen again until the year 2029.
A Super Harvest Moon, a rare twilight glow, a midnight conjunction—rarely does autumn begin with such celestial fanfare.
Enjoy the show!

This is true Rav, Ed could have done it the same way. The bad news is we will probably never know and be left only to assume.
The concept of Ed's PMH does lead one to believe he used this phenomena like glue to hold items in place for extended periods of time without using any generator or battery. Once he had something where he wanted it, he would just tap the device with reverse current and it would let loose.

Aldebaran is classified as a type K5III star, which indicates it is an orange giant star that has moved off the main sequence line of the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram after exhausting the hydrogen at its core. Compression from gravity increased the temperature and pressure at the core until it passed through a helium flash stage, when it began the generation of energy through the triple-alpha fusion process of helium.[9] Additional energy is being produced through hydrogen fusion along a shell surrounding the helium core. As a result of the increase in the core temperature, the star has expanded to a diameter of 44.2 times the diameter of the Sun,[4][10] approximately 61 million kilometres (see 10 gigametres for similar sizes).
The Hipparcos satellite has measured it as 65.1 light years (20.0 pc) away, and it shines with 425 times the Sun's luminosity.[3] Aldebaran is a slightly variable star, of the slow irregular variable type LB. It varies by about 0.2 in apparent magnitude from 0.75 to 0.95.[2] With a near-infrared J band magnitude of −2.1,[1] only Betelgeuse (−2.9), R Doradus (−2.6), and Arcturus (−2.2) are brighter.
Visibility
Aldebaran is one of the easiest stars to find in the night sky, partly due to its brightness and partly due to its spatial relation to one of the more noticeable asterisms in the sky. If one follows the three stars of Orion's belt from left to right (in the Northern Hemisphere) or right to left (in the Southern), the first bright star found by continuing that line is Aldebaran.
Since the star is located (by chance) in the line of sight between the Earth and the Hyades, it has the appearance of being the brightest member of the more scattered Hyades open star cluster that makes up the bull's-head-shaped asterism; however, the star cluster is actually more than twice as far away, at about 150 light years.
In this predawn occultation, Aldebaran has just reappeared on the dark limb of the waning crescent Moon (July 1997 still frame captured from video).
Aldebaran is close enough to the ecliptic to be occulted by the Moon. Such occultations occur when the Moon's ascending node is near the autumnal equinox. A number of such events occur every revolution of the Moon starting at 29 Jan 2015 and ending at 3 Sep 2018. Each event is visible from a different location on Earth, but always in the northern hemisphere (or southern close to the equator). That means that people from Australia or South Africa never can observe an Aldebaran occultation. This is due to the fact that Aldebaran is slightly too far south of the ecliptic. A reasonably accurate estimate for the diameter of Aldebaran was obtained during the September 22, 1978 occultation.[11] Aldebaran is in conjunction with the Sun around June 1 of each year.[12]
Double star
Five faint stars appear close enough to Aldebaran in its visual field for astronomers to consider it[citation needed] a double star association. These stars were given alphabetic secondary star designations more or less in the order of their discovery, with the letter A reserved for the primary star. The better known characteristics of these optical double stars are listed in the table below with the primary star, Aldebaran (Alpha Tauri A), shown for reference.[13]
what can explain the rare partial solar eclipses I captured for 5 days in a row?
to find the obvious
SUPERMOON ECLIPSE: This weekend's full Moon is a "supermoon," as much as 50,000 km closer to Earth than other full Moons of the year. Rising in the east at sunset, the swollen disk will look extremely beautiful... because it is going to be eclipsed. On Sunday evening, Sept. 27th, the supermoon will pass through the shadow of Earth, turning the lunar disk a cosmic shade of red. Click on the image, below, to view an animation of the eclipse and to find out when to look:
What makes the eclipsed Moon turn red? A quick trip to the Moon provides the answer: Imagine yourself standing on a dusty lunar plain looking up at the sky. Overhead hangs Earth, nightside down, completely hiding the sun behind it. The eclipse is underway.
You might expect Earth seen in this way to be utterly dark, but it's not. The rim of the planet looks like it is on fire. As you scan your eye around Earth's circumference, you're seeing every sunrise and every sunset in the world, all of them, all at once. This incredible light beams into the heart of Earth's shadow, filling it with a coppery glow and transforming the Moon into a great red orb.
Red isn't the only color. Sharp-eyed observers might also spot some turquoise, shown here in a photo taken by Jens Hackman during an eclipse in March of 2007:
Its source is ozone. Atmospheric scientist Richard Keen of the University of Colorado explains: "During a lunar eclipse, most of the light illuminating the moon passes through the stratosphere where it is reddened by scattering. However, light passing through the upper stratosphere penetrates the ozone layer, which absorbs red light and actually makes the passing light ray bluer." This can be seen, he says, as a soft blue fringe around the red core of Earth's shadow.
To catch the turquoise on Sept. 27-28, he advises, "look during the first and last minutes of totality. The turquoise rim is best seen in binoculars or a small telescope."
so the question is how did i have the eclipse before they even mentioned it?...

http://predictweather.co.nz/
the weather industry , hate him no end . Meterology itself is an invented profession like most professions are . Very welled paid 'job' if you can get it .
how many times have you watched the weather man on TV, he says its gonna shine , the next day you return home drenched head to toe .
they have no gaurantee attached to anything they say but massive amounts of money is invested in weather stations , equipment and some thing they call a "rain radar" .....that predicts tomorrow :0o
much like the spacologists and their cgi artist impression of the mars surface , much money is spent in falsities .
I reakon keep up with what your doing
with the amount of fracking , drilling and mining in the world there has to be a reaction from the earth .
I dont know how many times its been said , "for every action there is an equal opposite reaction" . yet the proffessionale seem to ignore that
is that called ignorant? ..... or ignorante?
