Psst: NASA Says We're Screwed Too [Comments enabled] How much press has this gotten? Oh AlGore!!!!! Paging crackhead AlGORE! A long cold winter could hit space in months bringing record low temperatures, NASA has warned. That's the warning from a scientist who fears sunspot activity on the surface of our star has dropped so low that record low temperatures could soon set in. “We see a cooling trend,” says Martin Mlynczak of NASA’s Langley Research Center. A cooling trend? I thought Glooooooobbbbuuuulllll Warming was going to fry us all? Uh, nope. Psst.... if you think CO2 is going to overcome this you're nuts... “SABER is currently measuring 33 billion Watts of infrared power from NO. That’s 10 times smaller than we see during more active phases of the solar cycle.” ONE TENTH the usual infrared power? ONE TENTH?! You have to remember that the Earth is one huge damned thermal mass. That is, it doesn't cool (or heat) immediately by any means; there's a lot of mass there which must absorb (or radiate) heat. This takes plenty of time, and that's a good thing because it's a buffer that smooths out what would otherwise be catastrophic (in both directions.) Remember this article from a few days ago? But I don't have to go quite there. I only need to expect (and I do) that we're headed for something like a Maunder Minimum. The sun is the most-watched celestial body in the history of man, with excellent records being kept -- and with good cause. In ancient times they threw virgins into volcanoes to try to prevent the Sun from going away. In more-recent ones people realized exactly how important those cycles were not to weather but to longer-term trends -- those lasting decades or centuries. We have been in a relatively warm multi-decade period driven by said cycle. But that cycle has turned as it always has in the history of this rock. It seems that I -- and a Russian professor -- are not the only two people who've noticed this. So has NASA. *Now where is the breathless media that has been screaming* about the false narrative that we're all going to burn up?**

Do you agree with Stockman's views on Obama and Hillary too? The "Meddling" Was Done By Washington In Ukraine, Not Russians Here By David Stockman. Posted On Sunday, November 25th, 2018 In other words: this was a set-up deal, set up in Washington, to create — and with the U.N.’s acceptance — a rabidly anti-Russian government, right on Russia’s doorstep, in adjoining Ukraine. Would the U.N. have accepted Russia’s replacing Mexico’s Government in a bloody coup and installing a rabidly anti-U.S. regime there? Did the U.S. in 1962 accept Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba, which is 100 miles away from the U.S.? Of course not. Why should Russia do that, in 2014 — or ever? thesaker.is
