8/13/17 - Stanley Krippner on Rolling Thunder and Odd News Highlights

"Believe in your heart that you're meant to live a life full of passion, purpose, magic and miracles.” - Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart


News, odd and otherwise interesting:
  • Turning a page. Discovery of 4 new planets demonstrates Science is making progress in the ability to detect Earth like planets. "Steven Vogt, professor of astronomy and astrophysics at UC Santa Cruz: We are now finally crossing a threshold where, through very sophisticated modeling of large combined data sets from multiple independent observers, we can disentangle the noise due to stellar surface activity from the very tiny signals generated by the gravitational tugs from Earth-sized orbiting planets. EarthSky.org
  • Might help us meet Stephen Hawking's warning to get our planet relocation division up and running ASAP. Vox
  • Save ourselves from AI? Elon Musk: "If you're not concerned about AI safety, you should be." 8/11/17. His suggestion is to install a neural interface with your digital self: AOL Turns out that project is already underway: Smithsonian
  • Missouri man who survived a hair-raising accident has no doubt he was saved by an Angel. He says the photo of the v-shaped object in the sky indicates the presence of his Angel. AOL
  • South Carolina Emergency Management Division issued a Lizard Men alert. RawStory
  • Wandering Shaman mistaken for Bigfoot/Sasquatch in North Carolina. Or not. The group who reported the sighting say the Shaman looked nothing like what they saw. FYI the Shaman is worth seeing. BBC
  • Reporter Aimee Levitt in the ChicagoReader, notes the "Record number of flying humanoid sightings over Chicago this year.":  "...based on the reports coming in from Chicago, Lon Strickler (Phantoms and Monsters) thinks that there have been three separate humanoids flying around." Aimee also reported on the Giant Fireball sighting of February 2017

While we're focusing on the sky, with the Perseids and the Solar Eclipse, a reminder our dark skies are being eclipsed. Filmmakers Harun Mehmedinovic and Gavin Heffernan created SKYGLOW to showcase the impact of light pollution and highlight the environmental effect. This video introduces the Skyglow project. Completed and ready for sale earlier this year: Feb. 2017. Link for the resulting film and book is on the home page link.

Website: SkyGlowProject  The completed film documents the ever encroaching blitz of illumination replacing our dark skies. Informative, illuminating, frustrating and breathtaking.


We really are Stardust: "During a supernova, when a massive star explodes at the end of its life, the resulting high energy environment enables the creation of some of the heaviest elements including iron and nickel. The explosion also disperses the different elements across the universe, scattering the stardust which now makes up planets including Earth." Physics.Org

Rattlesnake Medicine showed up for this one Stanley Krippner on Rolling Thunder - we also checked in with Verna Kowertz on how Weston Missouri is preparing for the Solar Eclipse. St. Joe is expecting 800, 000 visitors. Fox4KC. Massive crowd. And Weston? Let's just say everything that can be booked in advance has been booked.
