If you are compassionate in your approach to all tasks in life,
believing that all "problems" contain valuable lessons,
you will find peace of mind.

All-Sky Milky Way Panorama



All-Sky Milky Way Panorama
Credit & Copyright: Axel Mellinger (Central Mich. U)

Explanation: If you could go far away from the Earth and look around the entire sky -- what would you see? Such was the goal of the All-Sky Milky Way Panorama 2.0 project of Axel Mellinger. Presented above is the result: a digital compilation of over 3,000 images comprising the highest resolution digital panorama of the entire night sky yet created. An interactive zoom version, featuring over 500 million pixels, can be found here. Every fixed astronomical object visible to the unaided eye has been imaged, including every constellation, every nebula, and every star cluster. Moreover, millions of individual stars are also visible, all in our Milky Way Galaxy, and many a thousand times fainter than a human can see. Dark filaments of dust lace the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy, visible across the image center. The satellite galaxies Large and Small Magellanic Clouds are visible on the lower right. This was not the first time Dr. Mellinger has embarked on such a project: the results of his first All-Sky Milky Way Panorama Project, taken using photographic film, are visible here.

The Milky Way as you've never seen it before: The colourful centre of our galaxy in all its glory By Claire Bates


Hubble

Unprecedented: A beautiful composite image of the Milky Way centre using observations from the Hubble Space Telescope, the Spitzer Space Telescope, and the Chandra X-ray Observatory

Colourful, swirling clouds of cosmic dust interspersed with glowing star clusters are revealed in this extraordinary image of the Milky Way.

The dazzling image combining reds, yellows, blues and purples, was created by layering stunningly detailed pictures from the Hubble Space Telescope, the Spitzer Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory on top of each other.

The Milky Way is at the centre of our own galaxy and this image shows its core. The image was created to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Galileo Galilei's first demonstration of his telescope.



ARCHED FILAMENTS: These are located 85 light years from the centre of the Milky Way, the Sagittarius A area. The 'filaments' are roughly ten light years long and one wide. One light year is nearly 6 million million miles, the distance light travels in a year.

ARCHES CLUSTER: The densest known star cluster within the Milky Way containing about 1,000 'young' stars

X-RAY BINARY STAR: The glow is created by two stars, hence binary, orbiting a centre of mass

QUINTUPLET CLUSTER: It is a collection of stars which is 4million years old and contains 10,000 times the mass of our Sun

PISTOL STAR: This is the biggest type of star known in the universe and is called a 'blue hyper giant'. Like our Sun it has solar winds but these are 10billion times more powerful. Astronomers believe the Pistol Star will soon undergo a massive stellar explosion known as a supernova. Our solar system was probably created by such an event.

SICKLE: The Sickle is made up of dense dust clouds which are given their shape by radiation and solar winds from 'young' stars

SAGITTARIUS A: This is the centre of the Milky Way. Astronomers believe that it contains a massive black hole, a space with a gravitational field so intense that no matter or radiation can escape. Evidence for this includes mysterious radio waves emitted from this area.

The Milky Way Over Devils Tower
Credit & Copyright: Wally Pacholka (TWAN)

Explanation: Was Devils Tower once an explosive volcano? Famous for its appearance in films such as Close Encounters, the origin of Devil's Tower in Wyoming, USA is still debated, with a leading hypothesis holding that it is a hardened lava plume that probably never reached the surface to become a volcano. The lighter rock that once surrounded the dense volcanic neck has now eroded away, leaving the dramatic tower. High above, the central band of the Milky Way galaxy arches across the sky. Many notable sky objects are visible, including dark strands of the Pipe Nebula and the reddish Lagoon Nebula to the tower's right. Green grass and trees line the moonlit foreground, while clouds appear near the horizon to the tower's left. "Unlike many other international landmarks, mountaineers are permitted to climb Devils Tower." :(

Svalbard Global Seed Vault


—Photograph by John McConnico

Seen from behind, the entrance to the underground Svalbard Global Seed Vault juts toward Arctic waters on its opening day, February 26, 2008.

Located about 620 miles (1,000 kilometers) from the North Pole, the Svalbard islands' remoteness should help safeguard the up to 4.5 million seeds that may eventually be stored in the vaults frozen chambers—not to mention the polar bears that prowl these Norwegian shores.

An international whaling station in the 17th and 18th centuries, the treeless, West Virginia-size archipelago is now mainly dedicated to coal mining. With about 60 percent of its land covered by glaciers and snowfields—and despite the bounty of seeds now buried inside it—Svalbard is icily inhospitable to farming of any kind.

It is extremely challenging, and often very painful,

Clif High @ HPH - ALTA REPORTS & Jeff Rense


From Jeff Rense: The Half Past Human
ALTA Reports
This is a note from Clif High. It is self-explanatory...
5-5-9


The rumor going around the net is that the PowersThatBe have some how scuttled the web bot project. Here's the truth of the matter, though: No, the 'rickety time machine' project has NOT been co-opted, nor has it been sold out...but there are messages like this one floating about the net...

"According to some unnamed sources, the Web Bots may have been sold out. My question is: How much money did it take for TPTB to buy Clif and Crew out?

I'm not sure either, but I guess everyone has a price. I guess too much information on the happenings of the Earthly world which surrounds us was being put into the open. After all, I really cannot see why they would end their long-running program of future-prediction/rickedy time machine monkeybusiness for anything else. I guess TPTB have taken the last of what was once a good warning method for us in the masses... "

Upon receipt, I passed it along to Cliff for comments and he sent back an unexpectedly detailed reply:

"My name is clif high and I invented the process that Geore Ure named the 'web bot project'. I have run this project since its inception in 1994, when I came up with the beginnings of the idea, through to the point that we went into a planned working vacation just a month ago. It is a process of my design and efforts. Others, including George and Igor have participated and have helped shape the project along the way, and have played equally vital roles in its success. However, the burdens, karmic and other, have been primarily mine. I wrote all the code for the software over 1995 through 1997 and have been in production with the work ever since.

In response to the suggestion that the 'web bot project' has 'sold out' to TPTB, I say emphatically BULLSHIT! This is NOT the case.

Do it, and you will see. ~ JKrishnamurti ~


Do it, and you will see.

Questioner: Sir, if there is no effort, if there is no method, then any transition into the state of awareness, any shift into a new dimension, must be a completely random accident, and therefore unaffected by anything you might say on the subject.

Krishnamurti: Ah, no, sir! I didn't say that. [Laughter] I said one has to be aware. By being aware, one discovers how one is conditioned. By being aware, I know I am conditioned - as a Hindu, as a Buddhist, as a Christian; I am conditioned as a nationalist: British, German, Russian, Indian, American, Chinese - I am conditioned. We never tackle that. That's the garbage we are, and we hope something marvelous will grow out of it, but I am afraid it is not possible. Being aware doesn't mean a chance happening, something irresponsible and vague. If one understands the implications of awareness, one's body not only becomes highly sensitive, but the whole entity is activated; there is a new energy given to it. Do it, and you will see. Don't sit on the bank and speculate about the river; jump in and follow the current of this awareness, and you will find out for yourself how extraordinarily limited our thoughts, our feelings, and our ideas are. Our projections of gods, saviors, and
Masters - all that becomes so obvious, so infantile.

Peyote Healing ~



RED ON

Now I can thank you sir, for the polluted air
And for the hundreds of times that you cut my hair
Cause after four hundred years of not seeming to care
It's about time I take a stand and about time I swear
I'm going to give my life to my brother the tree,
And for the mountain trout that flow free in the streams
And for the death of the fences that display lust and greed
And for the time that my Indian people can see
The day we can determine our own destiny
And for the day we unite as a people and say...

Red On!

Hongos Alucinogenos - Ritual Peyote~



On Earth
but not from it...
From the stars we carry the light!
