eruptions during pole shifts. The Earth's thick crust acts as a shield in this way, so that only sensitive needles on

compasses, floating freely, jiggle into alignment with the Earth's core.

A planet's magnetic influence is not encapsulated by its crust, but reaches beyond this even to the ends of the solar

system. Like the shields that men stood behind to watch an atomic blast, they may have avoided the radiation, but the

landscape behind them was devastated. The Earth's magnetism oozes around the various crustal plates acting as shields

to recreate its essential alignment out in space, considering any confusion the crust may have presented as no more

than an annoyance. A resonance is involved, so that the magnetic field can reestablish itself, filling in any blanks.

Thus, when magnetized planets encounter each other, such as when the 12th Planet passes near the Earth, the strength

of their reaction to each other is much greater than man might imagine.

Mankind's tiny magnets are but specks on the surface of thick crusts acting as shields. Below the surface, in the liquid

core of the Earth, and in resonance high above the surface, is where the real magnetic drama occurs.

ZetaTalk: Gaseous Planets

Note: written during the 2001 sci.astro debates.

Gaseous planets work on the same principles driving their rotation, but due to the lack of a solid crust their cores and

atmospheres merge, where the rotation patterns on the surface of a planet with a solid crust is altered by the form and

shape that crust takes. In rotation within a liquid or mobile core, the rotation rate differs for the various parts of the

core. Rotation, as we have explained, is driven by parts of the core moving toward or away from elements outside of

the planet. Like runners in a race, some parts move faster and others more slowly, depending upon the strength of the

attraction or repulsion that is driving their motion within the core. There are also differences in mass, so that some

parts of the core float closer to the surface, and others fall to the center of the core. What does all this do to the

rotation of a gaseous planet, where the drama of rotation in the core expresses itself on the surface of the gaseous

giant?

Just as the oceans of the Earth pool about her Equator, due to being slung there by the motion of rotation, just so the

lighter elements in a gaseous planet pool about its equator, with the heavier elements lining up in bands toward the

poles. Motion in a liquid or gaseous core, once started, is driven also by the very motion itself. Around the equator, the

lighter elements rush to the surface, and there find they cannot leave due to the gravity pull of the planet, but also are

being pushed from behind by more of the same element rushing to the surface. What happens in a fast flowing river, to

the water along the banks which are being slung away from the pressure at the center? Eddy current occur, where the

pull of the flow at the center creates a relative vacuum in that there is a difference in water pressure along the fast

flow, so that water slung to the sides of the flow circle back into those spots of lesser water pressure. Likewise, eddy

currents occur in a gaseous planet’s latitude bands, so that the motion of rotation apparent on the surface appears to be

alternating bands with an east-west motion. The heaviest elements in such a planet pool at the core, and due to the

motion of rotation which slings the lighter elements toward the surface of the planet, these heavy elements also creep

up toward the poles. All else, the lighter elements, have left for the surface, and been pulled based on their relative

weight toward the equator of the planet. The poles, thus, reflect the overall rotation direction of the gaseous planet.

On Earth, these same patterns exist, but due to the buffering action of the crust the atmosphere operates independently.

Where the Earth moves under the atmosphere, the drag is from east to west, and as the atmosphere is not so inclined,

eddy currents, the prevailing westerlies, are created. Storms on Earth, created due to unequal pressure of air masses

and their relative humidity, last only as long as equalizing the factors takes - a matter of days. Storms on a gaseous

planet, noted by NASA in July, 2001 from recent images taken by a fly-by probe, seem to last for long periods. This is

because they are not driven simply by a thin and highly mobile air mass, but by elements disbursed in the entire core of

the planet. Equalization is not in a thin layer, but as deep as the planet itself, so the drama takes longer to resolve.
