NASA's NuSTAR Captures Possible 'Screams' from Zombie Stars

NASA's NuSTAR Captures Possible 'Screams' from Zombie Stars

For those of you who consider Science and Mathematics boring, but you are mad about the "Walking Dead" series, let me tickle your curiosity with amazing facts about space.

The Hubble Telescope; an orbiting camera with four views,  launched into Earth's lower orbit back in nineteen-ninety (1990). We just celebrated the twenty-fifth (25th) anniversary of its origin, and fifteen (15) years in orbit. 

Almost Daily, the  (National Aeronautic & Space Agency) NASA releases images and information collected, and gleaned from orbit. We are finding some astronomically awesome facts.

3/15/2015 Einstein's Theory Confirmed by Hubble Images

Are Zombies Real? Is there such thing as the Living Dead?

"... When stars die, they don't always go quietly into the night. Unlike stars like our sun, collapsed dead stars that belong to stellar pairs, or binaries, can siphon matter from their companions. This zombie-like "feeding" process differs depending on the nature of the normal star, but the result may be an eruption of X-rays..."

According to NASA; Scientists have theorized that Space  Zombies, become a charged body called a Pulsar. They travel, and spin in rapid trajectories, shooting fire, and picking up energy all around them. At times that energy crosses Earth's atmosphere sending out beacons that can sound like screams. 

Recent Hubble image captures give us an amazing view:

 Click on the image and it will get huge!

Recently there have been hints by NASA that they are sure we will have communication with other life in space.  
It is difficult for the untrained mind to consider that sound, light, and other images from stars or planets, come to us from space, can be thousands, or millions of years old.  

I love seeing the images shared with us from NASA and The European Space Agency (ESA). 
Us humans think we are central to the Universe. A critically thinking person takes the time to study Geology. Earth Science is not just about rock and planets, it includes study of  the tiniest chemical compounds as well. Once a student sees the big picture, they quickly realize that we are not "all that." 
Earthlings are a minuscule part of the whole of Creation.

One note for those who think that the idea of zombies is pure fiction let me leave you something to chew on - hoping that it is not BRAINS!!

Matthew 27:52-54 Talks about when Jesus was crucified on the cross, and died, that an Earthquake shook and graves opened up, and the saints got out, and went into Jerusalem where they were seen by many people...I don't know how many ministers I asked about these passages, but I never got a straight answer. Jesus himself after he rose from the dead appeared to his followers for forty days. Reeks of Zombie to me.

Upper Atmosphere Collapse - Not a Science Fiction Movie!

(link) NASA Article Released July 15, 2010

As a blossoming geologist, this news is an occurrence that we have been hoping would not happen.This is not meant to be offensive to those who "don't believe" in Climate Change ~ or Global Warming, but those who have made it their lucrative business of giving false information to the public about our Global Climate are not looking for the health of the planet. These highly financed ventures are not concerned with human health. They have one goal, and that is to make profits every quarter for the richest people in the world. 

Scientists have been monitoring the atmosphere above Earth since the first successful satellite launch. Where the atmosphere (upper skies), meets with space is called the thermosphere. These layers are made of gases, but you could say they are maps of our Upper Space. It recently suffered a system collapse, and is now rebounding. The original evidence of collapse occurred during 2008-2009.

The thermosphere, like a set of astro-lungs naturally cools and contracts when solar activity is low. The frightening fact is the 08-09 collapse was 2 - 3 times greater than normal, and scientists say the resulting thermosphere (the area where Earth atmosphere meets with Space gas) activity and readings are not adding up to normal expectations.

The cause for these abnormal readings can possibly be attributed to excess C02 in the atmosphere. Even considering the rising levels of C02 (Carbon Dioxide), the numbers and charts are not adding up to why the thermospheric temperatures are coming out the way they are.

The biggest producers of C02, dirty polluters, and dirty Governments will do anything to keep people from the truth of pollution and its long-term affects on global and human health. They have a lot to answer for. The thing is, if we do not turn around the way we use energy, if we do not quit looking at our Globe like one big gas pump, it will not matter, and all the 10101010's we put on our computer screens will be meaningless.

We must demand a Brave New World, that operates under a Green Economy. This means the way we consider power and energy will have to do a complete 360. We have wasted a lot of what we depend on for life. It cannot be business as usual. We cannot continue to do things like "we always have done it." In the long term, it is not working. Ask a dolphin the next time you see one not covered in oil.

NOAA - Comes up with 2nd Interactive Game to bring Awareness to Saving the Sea Turtle


"WaterLife, Sea Turtles and the Quest to Nest" Save the Turtles! In cooperation of the U.S. Fisheries Service, the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Under the US Department of Commerce, these agencies have created an interactive game that explains the importance of Sea Turtles. This animated and fun series of games is aimed at 4th - 7th grade students. These games are a part of an overall strategy to encourage an interest in Science, Technology and the Environment.

In this game, players travel to a virtual seaside town located in the Southeastern U.S. There are six Stakeholders*, whose participation are very important to protecting and rebuilding the Loggerhead Sea Turtle. 

*... a Stakeholder? A stakeholder is a person, group of people or organization who each hold an important and vital role in making sure there is success in a project or cause.

 The Loggerhead Sea Turtle, is listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. Players travel through a series of mini-games from the beach cleanup, to clearing a safe path for nesting turtles, to a food chain version of Sudoku. All of this is designed to improve the likelihood of survival of the loggerhead turtle.

To succeed, players must understand human actions affecting loggerheads and what people can do to improve the chance for survival of the species, both on land and in the ocean. This is the second game published by NOAA, the first game; "Where Rivers Meet the Sea" is the first game. I have put a link at the bottom of the page for each free game.

Thank you for your Public Service. Thank you for every "one thing" you do to enhance and protect the Environment. Thank you for taking a risk to tell the Truth. Peace.
