August 19, 2007 In case you haven't recently been out in the middle of the night and looked at the heavens, there is a disconcerting discovery to be had if you do. What used to be a sky full of stars has become a sky with hardly any stars in it at all. Astronomers from around the world have noticed that the great number of stars that used to be apparent have dwindled till there appears to be less than 100, and that number may be decreasing nightly. Dr. Edwin Barlow of the Kitt Peak Observatory offered this explanation. In a paper published last November 22, 2006, Dr. Barlow noted that the increase in green house gasses has probably had the effect of dispersing the light from the stars so that what used to appear to be a starry sky is now populated by only those few stars whose light is strong enough to make it through the trophosphere, which is where the green house gasses are concentrated. Not everyone agrees with Dr. Barlow's explanation though. Harmon de Vilbis of the Mount Palomar Observatory says that it doesn't appear to be a dispersion of light that is causing the stars to be invisible. Rather he explains the phenomenon as an indication that the universe is expanding faster and faster and that many of the galaxies that used to comprise what appeared to be the brighter stars are experiencing a "Red Shift" taking their light into an unseeable part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Helen Welgreen of the Flat Earth Society in the United Kingdom has yet another explanation, and that is that the cullendar-like dome over the earth has the holes where the light used to come through clogged with man made debris that is the result of all of the space "junk" that has been put into orbit. While everyone has a theory about this disconcerting phenomenon, scientists are beginning to seriously question the absence of starlight, and are unable to agree on a suitable explanation. NASA Deputy Director, Col. W. D. Philgroveington told reporters that it's nothing to worry about. That NASA has known about this situation since 2003 when it was first noticed. When questioned about the loss of stars possibly being due to the effects of HAARP (www.haarp.alaska.edu/) on starlight, he refused to elaborate or take any further questions on that subject, citing the extreme secrecy of the HAARP project, and saying that he was not authorized to comment on that particular government program. When asked what the government was doing about this unusual turn of events, he replied: "We are in the process of investigating the cause, and a report will be given to a joint session of Congress in 2010. In the mean time, Congress is being asked to fund the study of this phenomenon with a 30 billion dollar appropriation attached to the National Science Foundation Grant program. Rev. Pat Robertson also weighed in on this subject and said, when asked about this condition, that the Bible warns that at the "End of Days" the stars will fall from the heavens, and darkness will envelope the earth, and then will be revealed the returned Savior. When asked to elaborate on when this might happen, Rev. Robertson said "No man knows the day or the hour." Still if you happen to be outside at night and the sky is clear, you might take a look at the few stars that are left. The number is continually dwindling, and there may come a time when even the moon will disappear. Tremain Calliber United Press International ~~~AW~~~:-- So I guess I owe the GooRoo an apology for pooh poohing his observation. And now we'll never hear the end of it probably. GAWD, I hate it when this happens. ******************SPV......This article sounds so stupid you might of wrote it. But let's take it for what it is worth. If this is the case then Allison, when you go out at night you look at a clear sky and you see what? Why you must have not seen the stars like I said but here we are two ****ing years later and you find some article that you might have written yourself and now you want to apologize? What did you see when you looked for the stars Allison. What have you been hiding? You know from looking that the stars are not there. |
