It is safe to state that all of the geological theories we have been taught in Universities, are missing key elements. Look at the micro world of Geology, and then the Universe. Human beings have always had a misguided sense of importance in our place in the biosphere. It is plausible to consider we may actually not be kindred to apes and the like, but more resemble the dreaded and hated cockroach.

The cockroach, seems to have survived insurmountable odds of disasters that have struck down thousands of civilizations on our planet. They are carriers, like humans. They don't get sick. Have you ever seen an ill cockroach? The only roach I have ever seen, that appeared to be under the weather was a cockroach who has been poisoned. They do not go away, except for a short time. Wherever humans are, roaches are. This says a lot about the human species.

Each day, thanks to the endeavors of scientists  and explorers, we are reaching farther into space, and away from Earth. Some are hopeful for a new habitat of a select group of human beings, others with good intentions see the end of this Geological Era coming at us as fast as an errant asteroid. My own theory about what we will find, is laughable to most other scientists, so I will keep that to myself for now, but here is a hint. Everything in nature, works like the human body. 

When a human body suffers trauma, the whole system of the human being goes into heal mode. That system is very complex, but less of a mystery today, because of the continual process of using the scientific method. Two hundred years earlier, physicians thought a fever was the worst thing that could happen to a patient, but today we know that fever is a good thing in most cases. Our anti-bodies are on a search and destroy mission, to destroy what ails us. What makes us so arrogant, that we do not consider that the Universe operates the same way? 

Who is to say that an asteroid is not an anti-body, that a pyro-clastic volcanic explosion, is not part of healing Earth's systems? It may be something to think about. Coming from a cockroach point of view. Who do we think we are, versus the Universe?

New NASA Space Observatory to Study Carbon Conundrums | NASA

NASA Announcement June 12, 2014

The title above, is also a link to the NASA Space Observatory webpage that hosts this story. Since I started talking about that "Carbon Reduction Thingy" a few days ago, I have been looking for items, and information to share. 

This is an amazing article by our friends at NASA Space Observatory, and there are a few highlights I pulled out of this article to highlight:

Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2): NASA's New Carbon Counter - YouTube.

#2 As I named this Observatory, is one of five that will be launched in 2104. 

“Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere plays a critical role in our planet's energy balance and is a key factor in understanding how our climate is changing,” said Michael Freilich, director of NASA’s Earth Science Division in Washington. “With the OCO-2 mission, NASA will be contributing an important new source of global observations to the scientific challenge of better understanding our Earth and its future."  (Freilich 2014)

Earth Saving Agreement is Enhanced! ESA and EMSA ~ Strengthens Mutual Agreement. 07/05/2010

Agreement between ESA and EMSA furthers maritime safety

5 July 2010

"ESA and the European Maritime Safety Agency have signed a further Agreement to ensure that satellite data are available to enhance maritime safety and help combat pollution from shipping."

Bravo to ESA's Director General, Jean-Jacques Dordain and the Executive Director of the European Maritime Safety Agency, Willem de Ruiter. This is a cooperative agreement which continues a joint partnership of these agencies in using their monitoring and regulating systems together. There was a previous agreement that expired in March of this year(2010), this new agreement strengthens their partnership.

To simplify: This is a win-win for those who keep an eye on their planet. The ESA (European Space Agency), like NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Agency), have satellites positioned in different realms of space. They have programs for each sphere. They have programs for kids", teaching about the environment and showing how science is fun.

You would think having a birds eye view or better would make it unnecessary to have more than a couple up there, but as the Space you are in expands...well, it is like Texas ~ Wide Open Space. It is bigger than we can imagine. It is like countries in space, there is a lot to be viewed, it changes constantly and there are many angles to view from.

The EMSA's focus is safety and International Security. They have a commitment to reduce the risk of the oceans getting polluted and tracking polluters for the Member States within the European Union. They also support the implementation of European policy for maritime safety and security.


Often Government Agencies (all over the world), are compartmentalized to focus on only one thing or agenda. In the past, jealousy, greed, stubbornness and lack of imagination prevented agencies from working together. The ESA is dedicated to serving European Citizens as well as the Global Citizens. They share freely, beautiful shots of our galaxies, earth and oceans. The EMSA has been one of the largest users of information gathered from ESA. With a cooperative partnership and dedication to monitoring the Ocean and Maritime activity as it relates to Safety and the Environment the whole world wins.

It always comes back to the same thing. Energy. Humans search further and further for stuff they want or think they need. Humans want it faster. Am I the only one who can see that with all this going faster, we have strangled our own time? Nobody has any time. Is this why we continue to travel backward from survival?

To all those who wish to cooperate for the health of our Planet, Hooray! You are Heroes. To each one who cares and does the best they can for the world, Thank You. Thank you for every "one thing" you do for our Habitat. Peace.
