NASA News - Life and the Moons of Saturn - Solar Storms
Enceladus a moon of Saturn is home to a vast underground ocean
Nasa News
"Not only does Enceladus likely have an ocean, that ocean is probably fizzy like a soft drink and could be friendly to microbial life. "
Dec. 30, 2010:
In sci-fi movies, the first stirrings of life happen in a gooey pool of primordial ooze. But new research suggests the action started instead in the stormy skies above.
..."Titan's skies might ... manufacture the building blocks of life." H̦rst and her colleagues mixed up a brew of molecules (carbon monoxide, molecular nitrogen and methane) found in Titan's atmosphere. Then they zapped the concoction with radio waves Рa proxy for the sun's radiation.
Richard Fisher, head of NASA's Heliophysics Division, explains what it's all about:
"The sun is waking up from a deep slumber, and in the next few years we expect to see much higher levels of solar activity. At the same time, our technological society has developed an unprecedented sensitivity to solar storms. The intersection of these two issues is what we're getting together to discuss."
A century-class solar storm, the Academy warned, could cause twenty times more economic damage than Hurricane Katrina.

Did Life Fall from the Skies? Lessons from Titan
"… we are children equally of the earth and the sky." (Carl Sagan)Dec. 30, 2010:
In sci-fi movies, the first stirrings of life happen in a gooey pool of primordial ooze. But new research suggests the action started instead in the stormy skies above.
..."Titan's skies might ... manufacture the building blocks of life." H̦rst and her colleagues mixed up a brew of molecules (carbon monoxide, molecular nitrogen and methane) found in Titan's atmosphere. Then they zapped the concoction with radio waves Рa proxy for the sun's radiation.
A rich array of complex molecules emerged, including amino acids and nucleotides.
"Our experiment is the first proof that you can make the precursors for life up in an atmosphere, without any liquid water. This means life's building blocks could form in the air and then rain down from the skies!"...

Researches Crack the Mystery of Missing Sunspots
The famous Maunder Minimum of the 17th century lasted 70 years and coincided with the deepest part of Europe's Little Ice Age. Researchers are still struggling to understand the connection.
One thing is clear: During long minima, strange things happen. In 2008-2009, the sun’s global magnetic field weakened and the solar wind subsided. Cosmic rays normally held at bay by the sun’s windy magnetism surged into the inner solar system.
During the deepest solar minimum in a century, ironically, space became a more dangerous place to travel. At the same time, the heating action of UV rays normally provided by sunspots was absent, so Earth’s upper atmosphere began to cool and collapse. Space junk stopped decaying as rapidly as usual and started accumulating in Earth orbit. And so on…

As the Sun Awakens NASA Keeps a Wary Eye on Space Weather
June 4, 2010: Earth and space are about to come into contact in a way that's new to human history. To make preparations, authorities in Washington DC are holding a meeting: The Space Weather Enterprise Forum at the National Press Club on June 8th.
Richard Fisher, head of NASA's Heliophysics Division, explains what it's all about:
"The sun is waking up from a deep slumber, and in the next few years we expect to see much higher levels of solar activity.

| Levitating Frog Frog suspended in the air (weightless) inside a powerful magnetic field An impressive feat of magnetic fields is to be able to levitate living matter. We may have all seen ball bearings – that is metal spheres - “levitated” or suspended in the air between two strong magnets. More dramatic is to suspend or levitate a live animal in the air in a magnetic field.

Chladni's law
From Wikipedia
Chladni's law, named after Ernst Chladni, relates the frequency of modes of vibration for flat circular surfaces with fixed center as a function of the numbers m of diametric (linear) nodes and n of radial (circular) nodes. It is stated as the equation
f = C (m + 2n)^p \
where C and p are coefficients which depend on the properties of the plate.
For flat circular plates, p is roughly 2, but Chladni's law can also be used to describe the vibrations of cymbals, handbells, and church bells in which case p can vary from 1.4 to 2.4. In fact, p can even vary for a single object, depending on which family of modes is being examined.

Hans Jenny
In 1967, the late Hans Jenny, a Swiss doctor, artist, and researcher, published the bilingual book Kymatik -Wellen und Schwingungen mit ihrer Struktur und Dynamik/ Cymatics - The Structure and Dynamics of Waves and Vibrations. In this book Jenny, like Chladni two hundred years earlier, showed what happens when one takes various materials like sand, spores, iron filings, water, and viscous substances, and places them on vibrating metal plates and membranes. What then appears are shapes and motion- patterns which vary from the nearly perfectly ordered and stationary to those that are turbulently developing, organic, and constantly in motion....With the help of iron filings, mercury, viscous liquids, plastic-like substances and gases, he investigated the three-dimensional aspects of the effect of vibration.
In his research with the tonoscope, Jenny noticed that when the vowels of the ancient languages of Hebrew and Sanskrit were pronounced, the sand took the shape of the written symbols for these vowels, while our modern languages, on the other hand, did not generate the same result! How is this possible? ...Is there something to the concept of "sacred language," which both of these are sometimes called? What qualities do these "sacred languages," ...possess? Do they have the power to influence and transform physical reality, to create things through their inherent power, or, to take a concrete example, through the recitation or singing of sacred texts, to heal a person who has gone "out of tune"?
These three fields - vibration and periodicity as the ground field, and form and motion as the two poles - constitute an indivisible whole, Jenny says, even though one can dominate sometimes. Does this trinity have something within science that corresponds? ...
"The forms of snowflakes and faces of flowers may take on their shape because they are responding to some sound in nature. Likewise, it is possible that crystals, plants, and human beings may be, in some way, music that has taken on visible form."

DNA - Bioacustic and Bioelectric Signaling
"…during the 1990s, three Nobel laureates in medicine, advanced research that revealed the primary function of DNA lies not in protein sythesis, as was widely believed for the past century, but in electromagnetic energy reception and transmission. Less than three percent of DNA's function involves protein manufacture; more than ninety percent functions in the realm of bioacustic and bioelectric signaling." Dr. Leonard Horowitz

Another Blurb about the DNA Phantom Effect
Years ago some Russian molecular biologists (Drs. Gariaev & Poponin) discovered the DNA Phantom effect. If you beam laser light through DNA a wave pattern appears on the screen behind. If you then remove the DNA from the experiment the wave pattern remains on the screen as if the DNA is still there.
They also found you can interact with the DNA using voice modulated laser light. They were able to change the information patterns in the DNA with laser light and were able to convert a frog embryo into a salamander embryo.
Some German writers (Fosar & Bludorf) have written a book about this entitled Vernetzte Intelligenz. They argue that there is a networked intelligence at the DNA level that enables hypercommunication of information amongst all sentient beings. We are all interconnected in the DNA, and this accounts for a whole host of paranormal phenomena.
Excerpts of Fosar & Bludorf's book have been translated into English on the website The Spiritual Genome www.spiritualgenome.com

A Third Strand for DNA
A Third Strand for DNA
from chemistry world
The DNA double helix can under certain conditions accommodate a third strand in its major groove. Researchers in the UK have now presented a complete set of four variant nucleotides that makes it possible to use this phenomenon in gene regulation and mutagenesis.
Natural DNA only forms a triplex if the targeted strand is rich in purines - guanine (G) and adenine (A) - which in addition to the bonds of the Watson-Crick base pairing can form two further hydrogen bonds, and the 'third strand' oligonucleotide has the matching sequence of pyrimidines - cytosine (C) and thymine (T). Any Cs or Ts in the target strand of the duplex will only bind very weakly, as they contribute just one hydrogen bond. Moreover, the recognition of G requires the C in the probe strand to be protonated, so triplex formation will only work at low pH.
