OUR SOLAR SYSTEM

solar1

Description of our Solar System and it's components.

The Solar System consists of a sun at the centre and planets that revolve around the sun all at different distances from the sun and going around at different angles to each other.

The Sun

The sun at the centre of the Solar system is a star.

It is the Sun's immense gravitional pull that holds the planets in place.

The planets have no light source of their own, all light in the solar system is provided by the sun.

The Planets
The planets all orbit around the Sun at different speeds and distances from the sun.

There are eight in total (or nine if you include the Dwarf planet Pluto) - Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Moons
Moons rotate around their parent planet. Earth has one moon, Jupitor has 63, while Mercury and Venus do not have any moons.

Asteroids
Asteroids are made up of rocky debris up to 1,000km (620 miles) across. Nearly all of the Asteroids are in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter and also orbit the sun. These Asteroids are made up of ancient planet remnants that collided and were shattered by the impact.

Comets
Comets are dirty snowballs of ice and dust that revolve around the Sun in longer much orbits hence they appear every five years or so.

Comet tails
When a comet approaches the Sun, it starts to vapourise. A 'tail' of gas forms, which is pushed out behind the comet by the solar wind.

A comet's tail can reach up to ten million kilometres long. It can leave behind trails of gas that can extend several hundred million kilometres further.

Some comets actually have two tails - one of gas and another one inside made up of dust.

On average, you can see a comet with the naked eye every five or six years. However, many of these are only just visible, even if you know where to look. More spectacular displays happen about every ten years.

Two of the most famous comets are:

Halley's comet. Orbital period · 76 years. Next visible from Earth · 2061

Hale-Bopp. Dimensions · 40km, Orbital period · 4026 years

The Terrestrial & Gaseous Planets
The four planets closest to the Sun are 'rocky' or 'terrestrial' planets.

They are small by planetary standards and made of similar materials to the Earth. They are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars.

The other planets beyond the asteroid belt are what is known as the gas giants and they all have rings and lots of moons. The gas giants are made up mostly of hydrogen, helium, frozen water, ammonia, methane, and carbon monoxide.
These are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune

Magnetic Alignment

It may be of interest to note, that when dowsed (see Dowsing Section) that the planets in turn fit into a magnetic pattern. One would have a positive polarity followed by the nearest one to it, which would have a negative polarity aspect and so on.

In this regard there appears to be no planet X between the planets that the scientists are looking for in our solar system.

However, it should also be noted that Mars, does not follow this rule, having a different polarity to all the other planets.

In this regard Mars does seem to hold an important key being outside the usual polarity laws.


THE SUN

solar2-sun2

The Sun is at the centre of our solar system and by far the most important mass in our solar system

Size

The Sun is far larger than all our planets put together, much larger.

The Sun makes up about 98% of the total mass in the solar system.

The Earth is miniscule compared with the Sun, so tiny that you could fit 1.3 million Earths into the Suns interior.

Therefore the planets alltogether make up only 2% of our solar systems total mass (mass being solid or objects, not empty space).
 

Temperature of the Sun

The suns outer temperature is 6,000°C (11,000°F).

The Suns core temperature is 15,000,000° C (27,000,000° F)

The Sun releases 5 million tons of pure energy.

This energy generated at its core takes a million years to reach the suns surface.

Pressure

The pressure at the suns core reaches 340 billion times Earth's air pressure at sea level and it is this pressure that results in nuclear reactions takes place resulting in the vast energy produced by the sun

Chemical make up of the Sun:

Hydogen 92.1%  -  Helium 7.8%  -  Oxygen 0.06%  -  Carbon 0.03%  -  Nitrogen 0.008  -  Neon 0.0076  -  Iron 0.0037

With even smaller traces of Silicon, Magnesium and Sulphur.

Therefore 99.99% of the Sun is made up of Hydogen and Helium, which is why it burns up at such high temperatures.

Sunspots

Sunspots are dark depressions on the photosphere with a typical temperature of 4,000°C (7,000°F).

Age of the Sun.

It has been estimated that the Sun has been active for approximately 4.5 billion years.

Potential Life of the Sun.

It is estimated that the sun has enough fuel in its mass to remain active for another 5 billion years.

Therefore enough potential to base all our free energy on.


The PLANETS

This site is largely about 2012 and the changing of the magnetic poles or poleshift.

The poleshift is about a 26,000 year cycle involving planetary alignment as part of a larger cycle in the universe.

Therefore a little information on the planets in our own solar system seems appropriate.
