4.2R in Greece

A fairly strong 4.2R earthquake was felt today in the North West part of Greek mainland, South of Albania, as shown on the map. As you can see from the Greek earthquake diary based on our research, one can consider that it is late as 16/17th were important dates. But our prediction window on each date on the calendar is always +-a day. So we can say we were expecting it, as it is within the window. The density of prediction bars show that the window does not close before 22nd of this month. So it is a vulnerable period.

Partial solar eclipse of July 13, 2018

A partial solar eclipse will take place on Friday, July 13, 2018, but will only be visible in extreme southern Australia and Antarctica.
This eclipse belongs to Saros 117 and is number 69 of 71 eclipses in the series. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moon's ascending node. The Moon moves southward with respect to the node with each succeeding eclipse in the series and gamma decreases.
This is a very deep partial eclipse, NASA's Fred Espenak noted. It has an eclipse magnitude of 0.3365, while Gamma has a value of -1.3542.
The event begins at 01:48 UTC and ends at 04:14 UTC. The instant of greatest eclipse will take place at 03:01 UTC, 0.2 days before the Moon reaches perigee. The Sun will be in the constellation of Gemini.

Partial coverage of the Sun will be visible in parts of southern Australia, such as Melbourne (maximum magnitude of 0.022558) and Geelong (maximum magnitude of 0.031923) in Victoria; Mount Gambier (maximum magnitude of 0.045189) in South Australia, and Hobart (maximum magnitude 0.094527) and Launceston (maximum magnitude 0.072570) in Tasmania.
The eclipse will also be visible in Stewart Island in the far south of New Zealand.

Today in Earthquake History July 10th

A massive rockslide at the head of Lituya Bay caused water to surge about 530 meters, generating a "gravity wave" that swept out of the bay. A fishing boat anchored in Anchorage Cove was carried in front of the largest wave crest, and those onboard estimated they cleared La Chaussee Spit (at the mouth of Lituya Bay) by 30 meters or more. Two people on another fishing boat disappeared after being caught in the huge wave. The water, estimated to have traveled about 100 miles per hour, swept away a lighthouse and a log cabin - the only manmade objects in the area

• 
  Approximately 12,000 people killed.
  Nearly all buildings destroyed by the earthquake and landslides in a zone 60-65 km (37-41 mi) long and 6-8 km (4-5 mi) wide. A huge slide, about 20 km (12 mi) long and 1 km (0.5 mi) wide buried the town of Khait to a depth of about 30 m (100 ft), moving over it at a velocity of about 100 m/sec (225 mi/hr). This and other slides in the Yasman River Valley also buried 20 villages. The death toll is estimated.

Important Future Planetary Alignments

The above is a notable Earth-Mars-Jupiter-Saturn alignment to come on 16th April 2020. This is so rare that it certain not to take place in someones lifetime twice. However the earth here has on ONE side all the heavyweight planets.If we look at this from the earth's point of view the next chart  shows the Sun is square Jupiter and Pluto as one of the major aspects of the day.

Above is another important one, on 13th May 2030 where we have Saturn-Mars-Sun-Earth-Jupiter all aligned. Again a rare alignment and here the earth is between the sun and Jupiter, but the Sun is heavily being pulled by Mars and Saturn on the other side.  I would dare say significant earthquakes may well occur n or around those dates. A Geostationary view below shows that on the day we have Jupiter opposing the Sun and Mars, Uranus conjunct South Node, Saturn conjunct Black Moon, Chiron Square Pluto being the more significant aspects of the day.

Earthquake Review for Monday 9th July

A very quiet Monday morning today as evidenced by the low number of earthquakes across the world. It is now about 10:00 UTC and we see only 6 earthquakes over 4 R and only one 5.2R Lets hope it will stay this way. Just a reminder we are approaching Jupiter Station in two days where we will see over 6R event soon after. So quiet before the storm.

Planets Today (9th July)

The discomfort people experience is a result of the distinct planetary positional asymmetry we have above. As you can see here the major alignment today is between Mercury -- Sun -- Uranus. Heliocentrically. At the same time from the Earth's point of view (Geost.) Mercury is SQUARE Jupiter today. However overall we see Mercury Venus Jupiter Earth Mars Saturn, and Pluto ALL being on one side of the SUN, occupying a sector of about 45 degrees. Ooutside this assembly. No wonder we are experiencing extremes from weather to all sorts of other phenomena. Be careful on the roads today, and Be Happy and Stay Safe!

WATCH: Cats in Japanese cafe scramble for cover during earthquake

Cats at a Japanese cafe were given a good shakedown during the June 18th Osaka earthquake.

Cats running about and jumping to find cover were filmed at the CAT Cafe CATchy in Wakayama prefecture, one of Osaka’s neighbors. Footage from the cafe’s security camera was uploaded on the shop’s YouTube channel and started just a little before tremors began shaking up the place.
A few seconds after the clip starts, some noise caught the cats’ attention. Some of them jumped from their comThe cats then scrambled for safety. Those on the floor found corners and squeezed themselves against it. Others leaped up to the highest place they could find. A few cats in the middle of the room stayed in their perches while being prepared to jump down if needed and then the shaking stopped.
The scenes could be seen as a good example of animal instincts kicking in to warn them of danger. After hearing the noise in the first few seconds of the clip,  cats were already on high alert and ready to run from danger.
Meanwhile, these same cats, despite their fairly comfortable accommodations, are currently looking for new homes. CAT Cafe CATchy is one of a growing number of cat cafes in Japan that offer the animals they rescue and take care of for adoption, reports SoraNews24.
Customers who fancy a particular feline need only talk with the staff and have the proper paperwork sorted out.

5.8R in E Coast of Honshu, JAPAN, <--As predicted here

An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.0 struck off Japan's eastern Chiba prefecture, Japan Meteorological Agency said Saturday.
The temblor, which occurred at 8:23 p.m. local time, was centered off the coast of Chiba prefecture, with the epicenter at a latitude of 35.1 degrees north and a longitude of 140.6 degrees east, and at depth of 50 km.
The earthquake logged lower 5 on the Japanese seismic intensity scale which peaks at 7 in some areas of Chiba prefecture and could be felt in Tokyo.
So far, no major damage or injuries were reported, and no tsunami warning has been issued.

Residents in part of the Chiba region outside Tokyo reported strong tremors, with some saying the shaking had knocked objects from shelves, but there were no immediate injuries reported.
Public broadcaster NHK said no abnormalities had been detected at nuclear facilities in the region.
A spokesman for Narita airport outside the capital said the quake had forced a brief suspension of operations.
"We temporarily closed the runways but resumed operation after confirming there was no damage. The quake was fairly strong but there was no panic at the airport," he told AFP.
The quake comes several weeks after a deadly tremor rocked the Osaka region, killing five people and injuring over 350.

 We have been waiting for this earthquake as you can see for the already published Japan calendar of suspect days, see also below. (Date 7th June)

Spotless Sun

The sun is without any spots today, and it seems we have had no spots for more than a week!
In mid-February 2018, solar activity was as low as 2007 levels, which was one year before that solar minimum began. That’s why solar physicists now project that the Solar Cycle 24 minimum leading up to Solar Cycle 25 will begin a year from now in the spring of 2019.

Some solar physicists have even placed bets about whether low energy Solar Cycle 24 will keep extending into Solar Cycles 25 to 26 ending up in a Maunder Minimum of 1645 to 1715, when our Sun was blank without sunspots most of the time and coincided with a Little Ice Age.

Why would lack of sunspots cause Earth to get colder? Sunspots result from magnetic activity inside the Sun. Paradoxically, as spots on the Sun get darker and cooler, the areas around sunspots brighten up. So the more sunspots, the more solar energy reaches Earth. But why would we have a Maunder Minimum now in the 21st Century?

A couple of years ago in the summer of 2015, the Royal Astronomical Society had Professor Valentina Zharkova speak about her computer solar cycle model that analyzes magnetic wave components in our Sun. She discovered the waves appear in pairs at two different layers of the Sun’s interior.
She explained, “They both have a frequency of approximately 11 years, although this frequency is slightly different, and they are offset in time. Over the cycle, the waves fluctuate between the northern and southern hemispheres of the Sun. When you combine both waves together and compare to real data for the current solar cycle, we found that our predictions showed an accuracy of 97%.”
Projecting their data to the next Solar Cycle 25, which is supposed to peak in 2022, the two waves will become exactly out of sync, countering each other, and that is expected to significantly reduce sunspots and solar activity.
Then the projection for Solar Cycle 26 is that “the two waves will exactly mirror each other, peaking at the same time, but in opposite hemispheres of the Sun. Their interaction will be disruptive, or they will nearly cancel each other out. We predict that this will lead to the properties of a Maunder Minimum. When there is full phase separation, we have the conditions last seen only during the Maunder minimum some 370 years ago.”

Our Sun Was Blank 25% of 2017 — Dangerous Increase in Cosmic Rays

In 2017, the sun was completely blank 25% of the year as that Solar Cycle 24 was historically weak with probably the lowest number of sunspots since 112 years ago in the Solar Cycle 14 of 1906. Current 2018 computer models project that from the upcoming Solar Cycle 24 minimum out to Solar Cycle 26 expected to start around 2030, the Sun’s solar output could be even weaker, taking the Sun down to a level of weak solar output not seen since the cold years of the Dalton Minimum in 1790 to 1830, and maybe even the Maunder Minimum that European scientists linked to the Little Ice Age. Others have argued that the huge 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia might have caused Earth cooling.

Graph from 1600 to 2000+ showing 400-year history of sunspot numbers, ranging on the left from the Maunder Minimum of 1645 to 1715, followed later in 1790 to 183 by the Dalton Minimum — and onward to our modern maximums and possible deep minimum by 2030. Most currently, 2017 was a low sunspot year and there are questions going into the next solar cycles, if more blank suns will persist into another Maunder Minimum period that will also mean increasing cosmic ray radiation reaching Earth.

Weakening Magnetic Fields Means More Dangerous Cosmic Rays Reach Earth

Last month on February 22nd, 2018, the Space Weather Journal published an “Update on the worsening particle radiation environment now observed and implications for future human deep-space exploration.” The lead author is Nathan Schwadron, Ph.D., a physicist in the University of New Hampshire Space Science Center who also does work for the Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute at NASA Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California. He warns in his new research that cosmic rays in the Earth-Moon system have been peaking at levels never seen before in the modern Space Age. The increasing cosmic rays can hurt astronauts.

Professor Schwadron writes: “Over the last decade, the solar wind has exhibited low densities and magnetic field strengths, representing anomalous states that have never been observed during the Space Age. As a result of this remarkably weak solar activity, we have also observed the highest fluxes of cosmic rays.”

NASA illustration of cosmic rays hitting Earth. High energy cosmic rays from outer space are atomic nuclei produced by exploding stars throughout our universe. Low energy cosmic rays come from our own Sun. Cosmic rays can penetrate through most everything from airliners to astronaut suits and even trigger lightning in Earth’s skies. The problem now is that if the Sun Earth system is headed to low solar magnetic fields in a Maunder Minimum-like cycle, then cosmic ray intensity will continue to climb. That’s dangerous for Earth life and aerial craft, especially spaceships headed for the Moon and Mars.

Professor Schwadron’s concern is that as solar activity and magnetic fields get weaker and continue to weaken into the 2030s, there will be more and more cosmic rays reaching Earth. Cosmic rays are generated by supernova explosions of stars that burst out into the universe traveling near the speed of light. Physicists say cosmic rays are the most energetic particles in the cosmos. Their high energy allows these particles to penetrate nearly every material known to humankind, including astronaut suits and space craft shielding. When cosmic rays penetrate shielding, secondary particles are produced that can damage organs and lead to cancer.

NASA has limits about how much cosmic radiation is safe for astronauts. But with the declining sunspots as we move toward Solar Cycle Minimum 24, if solar activity continues to decrease, Prof. Schwadron and his colleagues report that a leading computer model of solar activity to predict how bad cosmic rays would become during the next Solar Cycle 24 Minimum, now expected in 2019-2020, suggests a 20% increase of dose rates from one solar minimum to the next. In fact, we now see that actual dose rates observed in the last 4 years exceed the predictions by ~ 10%, showing that the radiation environment is worsening even more rapidly than we expected.”

Protecting astronauts from cosmic radiation is one of the key challenges facing future missions to Mars. NASA is even considering the use of drugs on Martian crews that will alter the DNA code of those people. The goal would be to alter those human bodies in such a way that the altered DNA would repair any damage sustained from cosmic rays that could cause cancer and other diseases.
NASA Spaceweather reports: “Cosmic rays also penetrate commercial airlines, dosing passengers and flight crews so much that pilots are classified by the International Commission on Radiological Protection as occupational radiation workers. Some research shows that cosmic rays can seed clouds and trigger lightning, potentially altering weather and climate. Furthermore, there are studies that link cosmic rays to cardiac arrhythmias in the general population.”
Bottom line: if our Sun is headed for a lot more blank days without sunspots, for certain cosmic rays will intensify even more in the years ahead as it evolves toward what could be the deepest Solar Minimum in more than a century.
