Solar Radiation
The magnetic field of the earth is a complex and a very important
feature of the earth. Animals such as birds and whales use this
field for navigation purposes and it also shields the earth from
solar and cosmic radiation. Solar radiation can easily wreak havoc
on the earth and its inhabitants if the magnetic field weakens
enough, and it has weakened over 10% in the past 250 years. There is
also an area of the magnetic field over the south Atlantic that is
at only a 1/3 of “normal strength”, believed by scientist to be a
precursor to a
polar
shift.
NASA has released a solar storm warning, and they predict that solar
radiation will reach a max point (solar maximum) in 2012, during the
sun’s own magnetic pole shift. Although these solar maximums occur
every 11 years, this one will coincide with the galactic alignment
that will occur on December 21, 2012. No one knows how this will
affect solar activity or the electromagnetic field of Earth, but
many fear it will compound their effects.
In the event of a depleted magnetic field, we can expect to loose
modern technological
communication systems. Solar radiation, if strong enough, has
the ability to penetrate the earth’s magnetic field and ozone layer,
especially in weak areas. Depending on the strength of the radiation
and that of the field you could simply witness the aurora borealis
near the equator, walk away with extreme sunburn or have the atoms
and cells of your flesh mutated.
Many scientists and experts also predict that mankind and much of
life on earth may survive the events of 2012, but admit there is a
definite risk of total devastation. There may be a mass of solar
radiation that the earth will encounter in the extremely near
future, added to a weakening electromagnetic field, and a possible
shift of the poles.
