"Note the inverse relationship of cosmic rays (blue) and sunspots (orange) and how low clouds in different latitude bands increase during solar minima when cosmic rays increase and decrease during solar maxima when cosmic rays are diffused." "Dalton like Solar Minimum - Back to the Age of Dickens?" -

COSMIC rays may have been responsible for a near disaster involving a Qantas jet off Australia’s northwest coast. Safety investigators have isolated the cause of two terrifying dives by the Airbus A330-303 to an onboard computer.

... were first detected 100 years ago but until 10 years ago when a new type of telescope began to come online physicists weren't sure where the "cosmic rays" came from or how they were generated. They suspected the particles were accelerated by supernova shockwaves, but suspicions aren't proof.

... so who are we to complain). And now we can feel a little better about last year's mid-air drama over Western Australia, because investigators are blaming cosmic rays. You might vaguely remember that in October last year, a Qantas flight from Singapore made an emergency landing after some rollercoaster action: it suddenly plunged 650 feet, got ...

Qantas Blames 'Cosmic Rays' For Last Year's Roller Coaster-Like Flight: We have a pretty decent respect for Aussie airline Qantas, with its better-than-average safety record and generally trouble-free flights (of course, we’re not impressed by the recent beer ban on some flights, but it probably was in the name of safety, so who are we to complain). And now ...

Starting from wikipedia's cosmic ray flux graph, we can estimate for the range ... begin to believe that the Scotish Highlands where the measurement where taken, take much of the fertization from cosmic ray nitrogen fixation. So I've backed ...

Mexicans have done cosmic ray physics for many years. Recently radioastronomers proposed to put some antennas in high schools to monitor the Sun and Jupiter. What about cosmic rays? It is not very expensive to install a detector. These detectors usually are in sites with more than ten of them, so they have to ...

With the upsurge in Cosmic ray activity in the atmosphere of mother earth and in line with the article I published recently. I speak of the matter with my Co-host Rob on the science Hour at Gove FM. So what is the signifigance of these cosmic rays and how does it interact with climate change on our planet …. ?

In its first year of operations, NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has mapped the entire sky with unprecedented resolution and sensitivity in gamma-rays, the highest-energy form of light. On May 10, 2009 a pair of gamma-ray photons reached Fermi only 900 milliseconds apart after traveling for 7 billion years. Fermis measurement gives us rare experimental evidence that space-time is smooth ...
