According to a credible physicist with a published book on basic physics, the interaction between the Moon and the Earth plays an important role in generating the Earth's magnetic field (dynamo mechanism). The Earth's magnetic field is crucial to us because it deflects a large portion of dangerous cosmic radiation (high E protons, alpha particles and nuclei) from hitting the Earth directly. Some radiation is good because it drives evolution, but too much and we get trashed. We are currently losing our once upon a time robust magnetosphere at roughly -.05%/year, which could have a little something to do with our moon moving away from us at 38 mm/year. However, more than likely the moon has been extracting magnetosphere energy as long as it's having been parked so nearby, especially since the law of magnetic force isn't getting this sufficiently attenuated at merely -38 mm/year, and especially since our physically dark and nasty moon has a somewhat wussy core of salt like low density that's apparently not magnetic. However, the moon's somewhat salty surface is loaded down with iron and other worthy elements that could be sufficiently magnetic. Too bad for Earth and moon science that we still do not have any viable platform of instruments as efficiently being kept within the moon's L1. The moon's L1 must be another one of those deep, dark and scary places for even robotics to be. - Brad Guth - |

When the moon is gone, astronomy will be far more fun!!! What do you think??? By rights and because it clearly belongs to all of humanity, as having been the most likely cause of having created our seasonal tilt upon its somewhat recent lithobraking arrival, as in fact we should manage to relocate our moon, for the very salvation of our badly failing environment before it's too late. Entirely banishing our moon is however not such a good idea, even if we'd accomplished such a daunting task, whereas going that far would open up a whole list of potential negatives by way of our playing God, because the mostly fluid environment of this planet needs a little more than a solar tidal force by which to best manage our 98.5% fluid environment, that is unless you wouldn't mind another full blown ice age. Unlike most folks of denial in usenet naysay land, I happen to agree with Mook's SBLs, and for equal if not better reasons than just the clean and safe transfer of solar pumped energy into our humanly dumbfounded realm of our supposedly energy starved environment. However, of one rather nifty and clean energy resource alternative that's unusually massive and nearby and still in the ongoing process of doing our global warming environment more harm than good has to do with our moon, whereas we could technically moderate that bad moon stuff by way of our eventually relocating that physically dark and somewhat salty big old thing out to an active halo orbit within Earth's L1, and the next or rather ongoing requirement is for us to fully utilize the LSE-CM/ISS and of its tether dipole element that can technically reach as close as you'd like to Earth (just short of a few fail-safe km worth of coming into direct contact). Willie Moo / William Mook: A detailed analysis of the power flows in Earth's biosphere came up with the following; 50,000 TW - direct solar 320 TW - hydrological cycle (including winds) 40 TW - photosynthesis (all life) 10 TW - human industry (2005) Once again, your CIA WorldFactBook "detailed analysis" is simply being way too conservative, and your human energy consumption (if all inclusive) is off by at least 50% (I'd go as far as humans being worthy of 20 TW). On behalf of the raw 'energy in' simply has to equal 'energy out', or else Earth explodes. Your CIA WorldFactBook doesn't even take the horrific influx or clean through and through energy worth of solar and moon gravity issues into account. Doesn't the complex Earth/moon/sun tidal force of such interactive gravity account for anything within that good old mainstream conditional physics book of Mook? You good folks do realize that the all-inclusive volumetric worth of Earth (including its extremely wet and sooty atmosphere) is 98.5% fluid to those multibody forces of gravity, don't you. - Brad Guth - |
