..May be Problem....Solar wind weakest since beginning of space age

(but I just love to death the editorial opinion ala Bush and Cheney at the end of this!)

The intensity of the sun's million-mile-per-hour solar wind has dropped to its lowest levels since accurate records began half a century ago, scientists say.
Measurements of the cosmic blasts of radiation, ejected from the sun's upper atmosphere, were made with the Ulysses spacecraft, a joint mission between NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA).

The solar wind "inflates a protective bubble, or heliosphere, around the solar system," which protects the inner planets against the radiation from other stars, said Dave McComas, Ulysses' solar wind principal investigator and senior executive director at the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, Texas.

"With the solar wind at an all-time low, there is an excellent chance the heliosphere will diminish in size and strength," said Ed Smith, NASA's Ulysses project scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.

I heard through a friend who has a neighbor who’s brother once lived in Texas, that Halliburton is pointing a “SUN DEACTIVATOR” gun towards the sun in order to blow it out. Then they will be able to sell candles made in their factories. Bush and Cheney are stockholders

............ those "hearts of darkness"........ who truly knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men.........Only the SHADOW KNOWS.
