Respectfully disagree. Denial never accomplished anything.

Score another one for over-rhe-'air' software updates.

Edit: Thanks. One of Anton Petrov's better videos. I'd never known, or at least understood, about the IBEX mission.
Mapping the heliosphere by echo sounding-from the inside? Awesome.
It's shaped like a croissant or jellyfish? MAGA trickle-down awesome.
The heliosheath is 2 million degrees? Great Balls of Fire!

New Boston virus --95,210 views 22 Oct 2022-- Dr. John Campbell

Nuke Boston MA from orbit, it's the only way to be sure. [sarcasm, not a call to violence]

Deniers are keeping energy costs from exploding and reduce the human misery index.
I don't see a lot of so called believers collecting and using their own fire wood for heat. Seems like nearly all of them use electricity, natural gas or fuel oil heating.
I say theres lots of reasons to nuke Boston from orbit.

I don't like dichotomies, like denier/believer.

Denial doesn't move things forward, belief can be [terribly] misguided. Neither is fruitful.



It's all in how you frame it. Push things to the nanoscale and there is no way to put a meter on it.

I just got to the relevant chapters, but I'll post ante factum because Randall Carlson.
Chapters:
0:00 Sacred Geometry Parthenon
9:11 Master Diagram of Measure
24:25 Misleading Graphs
35:22 Hockey Stick Fraud
43:10 Scientific Consensus?
53:50 Scaling Exaggerations
1:12:08 Carbon Cycle Tricks
1:25:56 Mike’s summary
1:38:37 Visualizing 1/10,000th

The first two chapters are interesting in their own way. And Mr. Carlson has promised in an earlier episode to 'rip the veil off of' the hidden 9/10th of humankind's hisotry on Earth over the next few months.

An earthquake releases massive amounts of CO2 into the oceans and atmosphere.

Who knew....

The emission is 'quasi-spherical' suggesting gravitation may be warping it's overall shape.
Sounds like it's hydrostatic pressure is no longer sufficient to compensate for it's internal pressure.

Remember [hearing about] the Carrington Event?

phys.org/news: Radioactive traces in tree rings reveal Earth's history of unexplained 'radiation storms'

Quote:
Miyake events

But tree rings also record events we cannot presently explain. In 2012, Japanese physicist Fusa Miyake discovered a spike in the radiocarbon content of tree rings from 774 AD. It was so big that several ordinary years' worth of cosmic rays must have arrived all at once.

As more teams have joined the search, tree ring evidence has been uncovered of further "Miyake events": from 993 AD and 663 BC, and prehistoric events in 5259 BC, 5410 BC, and 7176 BC.

These have already led to a revolution in archaeology. Finding one of these short, sharp spikes in an ancient sample pins its date down to a single year, instead of the decades or centuries of uncertainty from ordinary radiocarbon dating.

Among other things, our colleagues have used the 993 AD event to reveal the exact year of the first European settlement in the Americas, the Viking village at L'Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland: 1021 AD.
....
However, the most widely accepted explanation is that Miyake events are "solar superflares." These hypothetical eruptions from the sun would be perhaps 50–100 times more energetic than the biggest recorded in the modern era, the Carrington Event of 1859.

If an event like this occurred today, it would devastate power grids, telecommunications and satellites. If these occur randomly, around once every thousand years, that is a 1% chance per decade—a serious risk.
Hold on to your [tin foil] hat. Else install a Nikola Tesla Lightning Protection System



Ben Franklin had it all wrong.

Tesla was a huge fan of Faraday. Just build a cage, egbok. Cosmic stuff, nothing really stops that.
