The striking ammonia bands, which paint the gas giant’s atmosphere various shades of red, brown, orange and yellow, have long remained one of Jupiter’s most iconic and recognisable features.

With wildfires engulfing over 620,000 acres of California, there’s been a concerted media campaign to single out man-made global warming as the primary force behind the deadly blazes.

But that’s not what the data suggests, according to University of Washington climate scientist Cliff Mass.

Total solar eclipses reveal observational niceties about the Sun and Earth otherwise impossible to detect.

This article paraphrases a recent summary of research expeditions focusing on the Sun-earth connection outlined by C. Alex Young in Sky & Telescope magazine.¹ August 21, 2017’s total solar eclipse allowed coordinated teams many “firsts” to be observationally surpassed, as well as confirming predicted Sun-earth effects dating to 1970.²

Thirty years of continued false climate alarms have sounded since climate change scientists started making their cataclysmic predictions that global manmade pollutants will catastrophically rise global temperatures to the point of killing off crops, mankind and other species – not to mention diminishing habitable land by rising sea levels due to melting icecaps.

A prominent feature of all climate model projections is their prediction that temperatures should be rising in response to ever-increasing concentrations of ‘greenhouse gases.’

However, for the past two decades, global surface air temperatures have not warmed to the degree predicted by the models, which lack of warming has been a conundrum to the climate alarmist movement.

SEATTLE, WA—With responses ranging from “squirming in discomfort” to “completely discouraged from studying science and engineering,” a nationwide poll group of high school-age girls revealed Tuesday that the nation’s young women are being utterly creeped out by scientists twice their age constantly attempting to lure them into the study of science, technology, engineering, and math.

Remember the RMS Titanic? She hit one of those while on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England to New York City, in the year 1912.

Summer is the season where temperatures have historically hovered around a comfortable 70 degrees most days while occasionally reaching a slightly warm 80 degrees.

Perhaps the Deep South would rarely reach 85 degrees during a historic heat wave before global warming. But now summers are hot – real hot.

SPOTLIGHT: Changing people’s behavior is profoundly difficult. BIG PICTURE: The media is in a tizzy this week over the latest climate change research published in America’s PNAS, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal.

“We continue to run California as if the longest drought we are ever going to encounter is about seven years,” said Scott Stine, a professor of geography and environmental studies at Cal State East Bay. “We’re living in a dream world.”

On Saturday, Aug. 11th, the New Moon will pass in front of the sun producing a partial solar eclipse visible from parts of Canada, Iceland, Scandinavia and much of Asia. As much as 73% of the solar disk will be covered. Selected cities in the eclipse zone include Moscow (2.1%), Oslo (4.8%), Raykjavik (20%), Tromso (29%), and Seoul (35%). Watch this movie for a preview.

When the eastern U.S. plunged into a deep freeze last winter, some scientists blamed Arctic ice melt from man-made global warming for the anomalously cold weather in the eastern part of the country.
