Auroras and the Magnetosphere of Jupiter

Jupiter has auroras. Like near the Earth, the magnetic field of our Solar System’s largest planet compresses when impacted by a gust of charged particles from the Sun. This magnetic compression funnels charged particles towards Jupiter’s poles and down into the atmosphere. There, electrons are temporarily excited or knocked away from atmospheric gases, after which, when de-exciting or recombining with atmospheric ions, auroral light is emitted. The featured illustration portrays the magnificent magnetosphere around Jupiter in action. In the inset image released last month, the Earth-orbiting Chandra X-ray Observatory shows unexpectedly powerful X-ray light emitted by Jovian auroras, depicted in false-colored purple. That Chandra inset is superposed over an optical image taken at a different time by the Hubble Space Telescope. This aurora on Jupiter was seen in October 2011, several days after the Sun emitted a powerful Coronal Mass Ejection (CME).

Fascinating....

Five planets will align for the first time since 2005

In an event that hasn’t happened in a decade, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter and Venus will illuminate morning skies around the world beginning Wednesday, and last a full month, until Feb. 20. The time of night that’s best for viewing.

A closer look at seemingly drab, transparent insect wings has revealed a plethora of magnificent color, visible to the naked eye yet overlooked for centuries. The colors are most evident against a dark background. Against a white background, they’re invisible. The researchers think the coloration has specific functions, particularly for mating, just as it does in butterflies and beetles and other insects with better-appreciated markings. (Source)

The answer is, Yes, the world is ready for disclosure. 

If it is true that aliens have been visiting us, people deserve to know. Every human has a right to know that knowledge. Unless our world would be at great harm if the general population knew. Hiding behind false lies and making a mockery of those who had legitimate experiences is not the right way to lead. There might be a little panic, perhaps the market will get jolted for a few days, but in the end the people of Earth are incredibly smart and adaptable. We will adapt and the world will get along fine. Many religions and even the pope have recently suggested they could exist. In the end disclosing the truth would benefit humanity, maybe even in some way humanity could come together finally and we could open that elusive door to greater awareness. The understanding of what peace really means.

John Singer Sargent Hagia Sofia, 1891
