Stefan Burns joins for an interview to discuss the impact of solar flares on our energy and the collective awakening of humanity. We explore the profound connections between space weather, cosmic events, astrology, consciousness, and the massive solar storms arising in the galaxy. They discuss the potential for supernovae and gamma ray bursts to influence life on Earth, the significance of gamma brain waves in altering consciousness, and the importance of the Schumann resonance as a global energy field. Stefan Burns is a geophysicist, explorer, writer, and entrepreneur. The natural workings of our planet and the universe at large continuously fascinate Stefan. From exploring the wilderness from a young age to earning a degree in geology in college, he's been driven to explore the nature of reality experientially and scientifically. The world really opened her arms to him in 2017 when he was given the opportunity of joining the Science Channel TV show Secrets of the Underground as a co-host. From the volcanoes of Italy to the waters of the Caribbean, traveling around the world expanded his vistas dramatically and fortified his resolve to help others understand the world through the lens of geology and physics.Currently he has his sights set on better understanding human bioelectricity and geophysical phenomenon like the Schumann Resonances.

Have you ever noticed that the same strange symbol—a handbag or bucket—keeps showing up in ancient carvings all over the world? From the Göbekli Tepe pillars in Turkey to Assyrian stone reliefs in Iraq and even Olmec artifacts in Mesoamerica, this mysterious shape appears in civilizations that never met. That's pretty weird, right? Some believe it could represent divine knowledge, a ritual tool, or even something otherworldly. But how did people across different continents, thousands of years apart, all come up with the same thing? Could it be a lost connection between ancient cultures—or maybe even a warning about time itself? Whatever the answer, this mystery keeps archaeologists and history lovers scratching their heads!

What do schools, universities, motivated STEM students, NASA, and the space industry have in common, all across the globe? The Universities Space Research Association! You may not have heard of this group before, but it's high time you did. Their new President and CEO, Dr. Elsayed Talaat, joins us to discuss the association's long history, educational and industry affiliations, and perhaps most impressively, their vast areas of research. If it's space, cutting-edge, and cool, the USRA is probably engaged. Join us for this fascinating look at one of the best education and research facilitators anywhere--the USRA. Headlines: • Astronomers mistakenly identified Elon Musk's Tesla Roadster as an asteroid, highlighting the challenges of tracking an increasing number of objects in space • AstroForge, a space mining company, announced their target asteroid for a mission launching next month, following calls for increased transparency from the scientific community • SpaceX is completing construction on their fifth and final Crew Dragon capsule, as the current fleet is expected to meet NASA's needs until Starship becomes operational • A newly discovered asteroid, 2024 YR4, has a small chance (1 in 83) of impacting Earth in 2032; NASA emphasizes that an impact is highly unlikely but will continue to track the object and refine the trajectory plot Main Topic - All the Way with the USRA: • The USRA was founded in 1969 to connect universities with NASA projects, particularly for lunar sample research during the Apollo era • The organization has since expanded to cover a wide range of space-related research areas, including astrophysics, heliophysics, Earth science, space nuclear propulsion, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and microgravity science • The USRA plays a key role in workforce development by providing internship and scholarship opportunities for students interested in space research • The organization has a consortium of 121 member universities worldwide, which helps guide USRA's research focus and advocate for the interests of the academic space research community • The USRA's funding primarily comes from competitively awarded NASA contracts, grants, and cooperative agreements, as well as some funding from the Department of Defense and Department of Energy • President and CEO Dr. Talaat emphasizes the importance of collaboration and cross-disciplinary research in advancing space science and technology • The USRA's Lunar and Planetary Institute has been a key player in lunar research and exploration since the Apollo era, and continues to offer internship programs to inspire and train the next generation of space scientists • Dr. Talaat highlights the critical role of space weather research in protecting technological infrastructure and ensuring the safety of astronauts and pilots • He encourages young people to get involved in space research, emphasizing the excitement of scientific discovery and the real-world applications that benefit society Hosts: Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik Guest: Dr. Elsayed R.

The Northern Lights were visible much farther south than usual this year, and pictures of the colorful hues filled social media. Now, imagine an aurora hundreds of times brighter - except no one would be able to snap a photo of it, as the onslaught of particles rushing in from the sun would instantly turn smartphones into bricks. Such extreme solar storms are rare - only six are known to have left their traces on Earth in the past 14,500 years, and none have been witnessed since the height of the Assyrian Empire nearly 2,700 years ago. A research team led by Irina Panyushkina of the University of Arizona Laboratory for Tree-Ring Research and Timothy Jull at U of A Department of Geosciences has now pinpointed the last time there was a burst of cosmic radiation so powerful that if it happened today, it would wreak havoc on power grids, satellites and communication networks around the globe. The team published its findings in the journal Communications Earth & Environment. Analyzing tree-rings for carbon-14, a naturally occurring radioactive variant of carbon, the team discovered a spike dating to the year 664 B.C., pinpointing the only extreme solar storm event whose timing had long eluded researchers. Panyushkina, lead study author and a research associate professor of dendrochronology at the Laboratory for Tree-Ring Research. said determining the precise timing of a massive solar eruption event provides important data for scientists who study and develop models of the sun's activity over time. Carbon-14 continually forms in the atmosphere as a result of cosmic radiation, Panyushkina said. Eventually, carbon-14 reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. "After a few months, carbon-14 will have traveled from the stratosphere to the lower atmosphere, where it is taken up by trees and becomes part of the wood as they grow," Panyushkina said. It wasn't until 2012 that extreme solar storms, known as Miyake events, were known to exist. That year, Fusa Miyake, a Japanese physicist and collaborator of Panyushkina's team, published a paper reporting the storms' telltale signature: spikes in radioactive carbon isotopes in the growth rings of trees. Miyake events happen when the sun's electromagnetic field weakens, allowing plasma from the sun's surface to escape into space. With the increased solar activity, protons bombard Earth's atmosphere and trigger chemical reactions leading to a spike in radioactive isotopes. "Thanks to radiocarbon in tree-rings, we now know that six Miyake events happened over the last 14,500 years," Panyushkina said. "If they happened today, they would have cataclysmic effects on communication technology." Panyushkina and her team used surgical knives to dissect individual tree rings from ancient wood samples, including samples from dead trees buried in riverbanks and timbers excavated during archeological digs. The researchers then burned the cellulose - the main component of wood - to determine the radiocarbon content. To pinpoint whether solar storms caused the radiocarbon spikes, the researchers compared the tree-ring data to spikes other researchers found in a different isotope, beryllium-10, locked in ice cores taken from glaciers and ice sheets. Much like carbon-14, beryllium-10 forms in the atmosphere due to an onslaught of particles from the sun. Rain and snow capture the isotope and lock it into ice sheets similar to how trees absorb carbon-14. "If ice cores from both the North Pole and South Pole show a spike in the isotope beryllium-10 for a particular year corresponding to increased radiocarbon in tree-rings, we know there was a solar storm," Panyushkina said. Although tree-rings can act like 'archivists' recording Miyake events, researchers so far have not been able to find evidence of a pattern in the events, Panyushkina said. "Tree-rings give us an idea of the magnitude of these massive storms, but we can't detect any type of pattern, so it is unlikely we'll ever be able to predict when such a...

In 2025, scientists expect the Sun to hit its solar maximum, the peak of its 11-year activity cycle. During this time, it'll throw out powerful solar storms, which are bursts of energy and particles from the Sun. If a big solar storm hits Earth, it could disrupt satellites, mess up GPS, and even knock out power grids temporarily. Thankfully, Earth's magnetic field acts like a shield, protecting us from the worst effects. However, the northern and southern lights (auroras) could light up the skies in places they're not usually seen. While it's not the end of the world, scientists and engineers are keeping a close watch to minimize any problems these solar storms might cause. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

Biden tries to use fake tariffs on China, big fail. The people are now moving away from the [CB] fiat currency, this will continue as time goes on, change is coming. The [DS] is now trapped in the narrative. They are destroying the country and the people can see this. The people can also see how Trump is fighting against the [DS] tyranny and he is willing to go jail to show the people. There is a solar storm happening and the [DS] is most likely accessing systems to bring them down later on.

Overall, the New York Times is reporting [SEE HERE] that Joe Biden and USTR Katherine Tai are likely to trigger massive tariffs against imported Electric Vehicles (EVs) from China, perhaps as much as 100% due to the low cost of Chinese production.  Additionally, the Biden administration is considering increasing the tariff regime against imports of Chinese steel and aluminum in a bid to protect the American industry. On the EV issue, this tariff approach is politically duplicitous by Biden against the backdrop of massive investment in Mexico by the three largest Chinese EV automakers. Last December the three Chinese auto manufacturers, MG, BYD, and Chery, announced they were going to spend billions building new EV manufacturing plants in Mexico.  Each Chinese auto manufacturer was going to spend between $1.5 to $2.0 billion. Those Mexican built Chinese EV's would pass into the USA market under current USMCA trade rules and regulations, as long as they technically meet the material origination rules.  This can make tariffs against the Chinese imported EVs a moot point, because China will be making them in Mexico (North American trade agreement). One of the reasons President Trump said the U.S. auto industry would suffer a “bloodbath,” is specifically because the current Chinese auto companies are targeting these EV's in the $10,000 or less range.  If you want to see what it looks like when cheap Chinese EV's start to flood a consumer market, visit Russia – the western sanctions have only increased this flow.  I can see it clear as day. This tariff claim by the Biden administration on “import Chinese EV's” is optics only for political benefit.  Whereas the 100% tariffs proposed by Donald Trump specifically target Chinese EV's made in Mexico.   Source: theconservativetreehouse.com Turkey's Central Bank Forecasts Inflation to Hit 75% Peak in May Turkey's central bank finds itself grappling with the country's persistent inflationary turmoil, projecting that the crisis will culminate in May with rates skyrocketing to approximately 75-76%.

Severe Solar Storms on the Way: What Will It Mean for Infrastructure?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- Hillary Andrews and Scott Sistek of Fox News write: “A ‘severe' geomagnetic storm is now in progress, according to NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center, raising hopes for a dazzling display of the Northern Lights on Friday night while also putting infrastructure operators on guard for potential electrical effects from the solar event.” You can read more here: https://www.foxweather.com/earth-space/rare-severe-solar-storm-northern-lights-alabama 3:10pm- On Thursday, adult film star Stormy Daniels testified in the Donald Trump “hush money” case—offering salacious details about her alleged affair with the former president in 2006. But why was Daniels permitted to provide over-the-top testimony that was immaterial to the charges being brought against Trump? Is the purpose simply to humiliate Trump even if the court isn't able to convict him of any crimes? During her testimony, it was revealed that Daniels believes she can communicate with ghosts! She also routinely expressed her disdain for Trump—and explicitly said she refuses to pay Trump more than $600,000 she owes him for legal fees stemming from a failed defamation suit she brought against him in 2018. Will the jury even find her testimony credible? Trump has been charged with attempting to conceal payments made to Daniels. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleges that the payment concealment amounted to falsified business records which influenced the 2016 election. 3:35pm- Dr. Ben Carson—Former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development & a Retired Neurosurgeon and Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University—joins The Rich Zeoli to discuss the 2024 presidential election as well as his new book: “The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture's War on the American Family,” which he co-authored with his wife, Candy Carson. During the conversation, Dr. Carson argues that the legal challenges being brought against Donald Trump are preventing the Republican presidential candidate from campaigning—amounting to a form of “election interference.” Dr. Carson's book is available for pre-order now and will be available everywhere on May 14th:https://a.co/d/5RggqEs
