Comets and Catastrophes © Inconnu Moonrise over a glacier A few months ago a member of the SOTT Forum posted a link to the following article about investigations into climate change. I wasn’t too sure what the contradictory term “Tropical Ice Cores” meant, but the article seemed to explain all that: Tropical Ice Cores Shows Two Abrupt […] What is the truth about Climate Change? Some time ago I wrote about Climate Change as being probably the most pressing problem facing humanity today. It is so pressing that I am convinced that possibly 90% of the human race – over 6 billion people – could be at risk of certain death in the […] Often, some of the most important news comes from local papers, stories that don’t make it up the feeding chain and onto the news wires or major newspapers or nightly network news. It can be news that at first glance wouldn’t appear to have a national or international impact. Second glance, and a good memory, […] The eagle screams, And with pale beak tears corpses. Mountains dash together, Heroes go the way to Hel, And heaven is rent in twain. All men abandon their homesteads When the warder of Midgard In wrath slays the serpent. The sun grows dark, The earth sinks into the sea, […] “Time passes, but they’re always five to seven years from the bomb.” — Shlomo Brom, Israel’s deputy national security adviser under former Prime Minister Ehud Barak Angel by William Blake As Israeli politicians continue to beat the war-drums over what they (now alone) claim to be an imminent threat from a nuclear-capable Iran, very similar […] When asked what I would like to write about for this issue of the Dot Connector, the first thing that came out of my mouth was “The Golden Age and how we got from there to where we are now and what it all means.” That is the topic that has been exercising my thinking […] New Light on the Black Death: The Cosmic Connection by dendrochronologist Mike Baillie of Queen’s University, Belfast, Ireland. Book Review by Laura Knight-Jadczyk I just finished reading this one and all I can say is: Wow! This was an intense book! Not a long one, either – just 208 pages including appendices. It’s tight and […] Having recently written a review of New Light on the Black Death: The Cosmic Connection by dendrochronologist Mike Baillie of Queen’s University, Belfast, Ireland, I decided to go deeper into the subject. Over the past few weeks a whole case of books I ordered have been arriving and getting piled on my desk after a […] ©Unknown It was a warm, clear afternoon in the capital. The bustle of metropolitan commerce and tourism filled the streets. Small sailing vessels dotted the sheltered waters within sight of the government buildings, riding on a soft southerly breeze. The Sun sparkled on the gentle swells and wakes, lending a luminous glow to the […] ©Unknown Comet of 1532 This morning I was thumbing through a newly arrived book: Comet/Asteroid Impacts and Human Society, published by the eminent scientific publishing house, Springer, edited by Peter T. Bobrowsky and Hans Rickman. This book is a collection of scientific papers presented at a workshop under the aegis of the International Council for […] ©Unknown Cometary fire ruins, as seen from the corner of Dearborn and Monroe Streets, Chicago, 1871. Last night we watched Super Comet – After the Impact, a Discovery Channel special that basically takes the comet that wiped out the dinosaurs and put into modern times. They added some cheesy drama, following the struggles of several […] ©Peter Grego Impression of the 1178 lunar event Last time I said I was going to talk about how much your “glorious leaders” really hate and despise you and how they are plotting your deaths while most of you are so screwed up that you not only do not see this, you actually dance blithely […] Today I’m going to write a letter; a letter to all our readers. I’m also going to include a transcript of a very interesting letter SOTT.net has received from Prof. Victor Clube. I hope that these letters will change your life, your future, and mine as well. Here at SOTT.net, we have been pretty busy […] Astronomy books and papers far too numerous to cite offer the assurance that “no one has ever been killed by a meteorite.” (John S. Lewis, University of Arizona) ©Julian Baum Over the past few years, while sott.net has been tracking the increasing flux of fireballs and meteorites entering the earth’s atmosphere, we have been, by […] ©Julian Baum Today we are going to look at the Summary of Conclusions about Fireballs and Meteorites that Victor Clube attached to his cover letter to the Chief, Physics and BMD Coordinator of the European Office of Aerospace Research and Development back in 1996, 5 years before September 11, 2001; that, and a few […] Somehow, I think it is highly probable that we have a new event to add to our list of Meteorites, Asteroids, and Comets: Damages, Disasters, Injuries, Deaths, and Very Close Calls Have a look at the excerpts from the following two news items from this past week and see if something doesn’t seem off about the glib […]

Kometi i katastrofa Recenzija knjige New Light on the Black Death: The Cosmic Connection, autora Mike Bailliea, dendrokronologa sa Sveučilišta Queen’s u Belfastu, Irska, od Laure Knight-Jadczyk. Upravo sam završila s čitanjem ove knjige i sve što mogu reći je: Vau! Ovo je bila intenzivna knjiga! Također nije duga – samo 208 stranica uključujući priloge. Sažeta i ekonomična […] Laura Knight-Jadczyk 15. siječanj 2008. Bilo je toplo, vedro poslijepodne u glavnom gradu. Užurbanost gradskog trgovanja i turizma je ispunila ulice. Mala plovila su nakitila zaklonjene vode unutar vidokruga vladinih zgrada, ploveći na nježnom južnom povjetarcu. Sunce se zrcalilo na blagim valovima, posuđujući blistav sjaj makovima i tulipanima koji se njišu u parkovima uz […] Često, neke od najvažnijih vijesti dolaze iz lokalnih novina, priče koje ne završe na vrhu hranidbenog lanca informativnih tokova, glavnih novina ili noćnih vijesti. To mogu biti vijesti koje na prvi pogled izgledaju kao da nemaju nacionalni ili internacionalni utjecaj. Drugi pogled, te dobro pamćenje, mogu otkriti da taj utjecaj može biti jako značajan. Neki […]
