This picture so adequately expresses where we are at this time. It is dark and many times brutal to be where we are, but just around the bend ahead is the light shining brightly, beckoning us to continue on. As we go along and keep looking for an end in sight we lose track of where we have been! It is time to look behind us and take stock of all we have manifested! The world has gone through much chaos and yet we are still in one glorious piece. Banks have fallen, our money has been stolen, our homes have been taken away, our food has been poisoned as well as our water and air, our rights have been stripped away and yet here we still are and in many cases stronger than we were before! We will not be beaten down, we quietly refuse to do things the dark way. We are aware now, awake to the truth, on guard and ready for action if needed. We most definitely are NOT where we were a year ago!
~Space Weather Update~ EXPLOSION ON JUPITER:
DOUBLE ASTEROID FLYBY: A pair of big, near-Earth asteroids will fly by the Earth-Moon system on Sept. 14th. 2012 QG42 is a 300-meter space rock that comes from the inner asteroid belt; it will pass 2.8 million km (7.4 lunar distances) from Earth. 2012 QC8 is even bigger, about 1.1 km in diameter, hailing from the vicinity of Jupiter; it will pass about 8.7 million km (22.7 lunar distances) from Earth. Astronomers monitoring the incoming space rocks say they are glowing like 14th to 15th magnitude stars, which makes them good targets for advanced amateur telescopes. Ephemerides: 2012 QG42, 2012 QC8.
EXPLOSION ON JUPITER: Apparently, something hit Jupiter during the early hours of Sept. 10th (11:35 UT), igniting a ferocious fireball in the giant planet's cloudtops. Amateur astronomer Dan Peterson Racine, Wisconsin, saw it first through his Meade 12" LX200 telescope. "It was a bright white flash that lasted only 1.5 - 2 seconds," he reports. Another amateur astronomer, George Hall of Dallas, Texas, was video-recording Jupiter at the time, and he confirmed the fireball with this video screenshot:
