NASA Discovers Energy Portals Between Earth and the Sun
Stargate SG-1 is my favorite science fiction television series of all time. Yes, I love Star Trek Next Generation, The New Battlestar Galactica, and Babylon 5, just to name a few of the good ones, but there was something about the technology of the Stargate that captured my attention. In the show, earth’s scientists discovered an ancient device called a Stargate that allowed humans to traverse the universe in a network of wormholes. Evidently, a race of beings called The Ancients built the Stargate system and later evolved into entities of pure energy.
With the push of a few buttons and no more effort than it would take to walk from the couch to your bathroom, one could journey from one star system to another. For ten years I watched every show with anticipation and glee. My wife and I purchased the entire DVD collection and watched all of them again. Actually, to be honest, we watched them twice.
Yes, that is a lot of time, but we truly love the technology, the characters, and the escape the show provided. In my opinion, it is science fiction at its finest. The BBC has produced a new show entitled Miracle Day that may give Stargate SG1 a run for its money, even though it is limited at present to a handful of episodes. One can hope; but that is another story.
Recently, I found some research that NASA funded that made my spirit soar. NASA has taken one giant step closer toward turning science fiction into science fact by announcing the discovery of hidden portals in Earth’s magnetic field. NASA calls them X-points or electron diffusion regions. They are places where the magnetic field of Earth connects to the magnetic field of the Sun, which in turn creates an uninterrupted path leading from our own planet to the sun’s atmosphere which is 93 million miles away.
NASA used its THEMIS spacecraft, as well as a European Cluster probe, to examine this phenomenon. They found that these portals open and close dozens of times each day. Many ancient cultured speculated that the gods used portal such as these to travel the universe. The Sun Gods in particular were thought to use such portals to visit the earth and other domains in the universe. Does this discovery take us one step closer toward verifying this ancient myth? The portals that NASA has discovered are usually located tens of thousands of kilometres from Earth and most of them are tiny and short-lived; others are giant, vast and sustained.
As far as scientists can determine, these portals aid in the transfer of tons of magnetically charged particles that flow from the Sun causing the northern and southern lights and geomagnetic storms. They aid in the transfer of the magnetic field from the Sun to the Earth.
In 2014, the U.S. space agency will launch a new mission called Magnetospheric Multi scale Mission (MMS) which will include four spacecraft that will circle the Earth to locate and then study these portals. They are located where the Earth and the Sun’s magnetic fields connect and where the unexplained portals are formed.
NASA funded the University of Iowa for this study headed by physicists Jack Scudder, and they are still unclear as to what these portals are. All they have done is observed charged particles flowing through them that cause electro-magnetic phenomenon in Earth’s atmosphere.
I realize that mankind is a long way from using any of this information in a practical way. We may never fully understand the function of these strange energy portals or why they exist in the first place. The existence of the gigantic sustained energy portals is particularly intriguing. Billions of tons of matter stream through these portals every day. If by some far flung chance we could understand the physics of these portals, we might one day be able to use them for travel. Mind you, this is a remote possibility, but then what is speculation for anyway.
I love the mere idea that our universe may be replete with such portals. We have just discovered the existence of these energy portals around our planet. Given time, we may discover other such portals. Just to be clear, I want to sign up for the first SG team slot that becomes available. Who knows, I might even get the chance to meet one of the Ancients.
