Astro Viewing, Star Hopping, Messier, and why Our Obsession With Comets Continues -- And DO COMETS cause Earthquakes

My stark epiphany after some Astro viewing, is the remarkable non-uniformity of space.

Also, a new thought, some Constellations may not be near to "each other" at all.   Some stars might be 200 light years away, and others in the same Constellation may be 50 light years away. 

But here is the key --- Modern atronomy is an offshoot of the rich and powerful paying people to search for comets -- but why this focus on comets?   

1)Bragging rights?   My scientists kick your French scientists butt?   

2) Or more for societal control?  Being able to predict a comet would make people believe the rulers had super powers?  

3) Or as a reasonable prediction of disasters to come.   I did work years back that correlated fast moving space rocks (comets) with really large earthquakes on Earth.

Comets Demystified, Asteroids Discovered

Until the emergence of modern astronomy in the 1500s and 1600s, comets remained mysterious and frightening signs of disastrous or extraordinary events. The noted Protestant leader Martin Luther, who died in 1546, stated the common view. He was aware of the writings of Greeks like Aristotle and Romans like Seneca, who had held that comets result from natural processes. Luther flat out rejected the ideas of these "heathens," or nonbelievers in Christianity, saying, "The heathen writes that the comet may arise from natural causes; but God creates not one [comet] that does not foretoken a sure calamity."⁸

Comet Honda Coming For a Close Approach -- Analysis Shows Honda Causes Large Earthquakes

stock here:

This is my own theory.    I found the approach data, and then checked the long term earthquake data.    It doesn't cause earthquakes every pass by earth, but it does on many.    If the earths plates are stressed, Comet Honda can be the Trigger.    

---------------------------------------------------
Other theory is that Honda could trigger a CME that would hit around New Years.   It is now well documented by Suspicious0bservers that CMEs are present on EVERY large earthquake.   Google it

Comet 45p-caused CME threat to nuke cooling next 10 days either side of 12-31 perihelion, and/or comet breakup, can be watched at https://theskylive.com/45p-info, and bpearthwatch.com. Nearest approach to earth 2-13-2017 also to be watched. CME when comet is between sun and earth would be earth-facing threat. Happy New Year.

 


Expect large earthquake (s) especially since there has been very unusual earthquake activity the last month.    Even a 7.5 EQ could be a pre-shock, as opposed to a "stress relief".

Be Prepared, Not Scared

My original data had comet Honda in a super close approach Feb 2017, but newer data shows that brightest magnitude is right around Jan 1, 2017 and others were using this date for a fly by.

JPL shows Feb 17, 2017 for close approach, others show Feb 11, and Feb 14

Comet 'Honda' 

Close approaches to planets: This comet made 11 close approaches to Earth and 2 close approaches to Jupiter during the 20th century. It makes 1 close approach to Venus, 5 close approaches to Earth, and 1 close approach to Jupiter during the first half of the 21st century. (From the orbital work of Kazuo Kinoshita)

 An interesting "tablet" documents a 2193 BC prediction and subsequent documentation of a large comet impact, causing 300 years of cooling, and collapse of various civilizations.

Abstract

The K8538 is the world's first scientific documentation on approach and terrestrial impact of a large comet on Earth. Observations were made on top of an astronomical tower, located 100 km close to the impact site. The report is presented in form of a sequence of eight pictures, explaining the comet's first astronomical sighting, the appearance of comet tail and coma, the growing comet size, the comet flight across the sky and finally, its visible impact beyond the horizon, i.e. the impact flash lighting of the sky and the subsequent elevation of ash plumes, glowing beyond the horizon, spreading North and West.

 

The impact itself is not described as a blast pressure wave but rather as an ash and dust tempest, rising out of mud sediments from the Tigris and Euphrates river delta, where the hot comet found its burial. The astronomical observer carried out trigonometrical measurements to record the flight path in the sky, flying distances and flying times. 

 

The observer started his measurements as soon as the comet showed its spectacular size, coma and tail, which convinced the observer, that an extraordinary celestial event was about to take place. 

 

The K8538 is a full comprehensive analysis of the comet event; its eight-picture sequence is cohesive. The tablet is a masterly work, explaining with as little text a maximum amount of impact event features. The tablet is a late Babylonian copy of the early old Sumerian original. 

 

Written cuneiform signs of two zodiacal constellations, Orion and Triangulum, are later Babylonian copy scribe additions and were not part of the Sumerian original. 

 

The K8538 tablet had high priority in Babylonian times, because it provided the documented evidence that the comet emerged out of the constellation Triangulum, Mul-Apin, onto which late Babylonian astronomy and religion rested. 

 

The tablet eyewitness account shows Mul-Apin as celestial seat of Gods and celestial source of destructive meteors on Earth. For this reason, the K8538 was guarded, copied and refreshed over more than 1,500 years, until the late Babylonian period, after the observed meteor impact in 2,193 BC. 

 

The tablet does not deal with any Babylonian zodiacal astrology. The described cosmic impact on Earth is the so-called 4.2 kyr event, shown in our other Holocene climate change studies. The comet impact is responsible for a 300 year long drop in global temperatures combined with lasting mega-droughts, which led to the collapse of various ancient civilizations around the world.
