REVIEW of SOLAR ALMANAC

By Dan Youra, Publisher & Editor, Youra Media

Your expanded work on the Zharkova section is a masterpiece. I see the amount of work you put into understanding her significant contributions and into explaining their relevance to the current dialogue.

You do a great service to helping us non-scientists appreciate the significance of her discoveries. You outline her predictions in a thoughtful way, explicating her work with the credit it deserves while still advising caution that some of it is unproven, with the recognition that a few years must pass before her theories will be proven correct based on the extent of the cooling over the next few years.

I think you do an excellent job in your predictions, in general. You offer good rationale in how you came about with the predictions you do share. You identify cautions where you see them appropriate. You qualify them when necessary. You make your claims defensible. You don’t go overboard on making sensationalistic predictions beyond how sensationalistic these studies actually are, especially for the contrarians who are shocked by anything other than manmade warming.

Really, Michael, your entire work on the Science section is very profound and a very significant contribution toward advancing our understanding of these important, yet difficult to understand, scientific concepts surrounding the big climate issues facing the lives of the inhabitants of planet earth today and over the coming decades. Your research and your significant efforts to make the science and its implications understandable for the wider audience of non scientists deserves recognition alongside Happer, Soon, and the rest of the lauded “experts."

Regarding what Zharkova communicated directly to you, I am fascinated by her statement, “Basically, there are two effects of the sun on the terrestrial temperature": "1.) via increase/decrease of solar activity . . . and" "2.) effects of large planets on the change of distance between Sun and Earth." I could almost say that it is shocking to see how simple, maybe simplistic, the two causes are: 1.) solar activity; and 2.) large planets. Regarding “solar activity” it is such a seemingly simple two words to summarize the incredibly complex math, physics, astronomy, statistics, research, etc., etc., that are the foundation of all the factors discovering and explaining the theory behind “solar activity.” The other side has CO2. We have “Solar Activity.”

The shocking effect she points to so nonchalantly is effects of “Large Planets.” Solar Almanac Predictions 2020-2100 Page 8 You take the planetary aspects of the solar system kind of for granted, because you’ve been dealing with them for many decades. I am pointing out to you that your knowledge in the workings of the solar system is a very special, unique, and valuable gift, which enables you to be a unique position to diagnose and explain this planetary component of the Zharkova’s theory.

You probably know more about the planetary relationships with regard to the Barycenter, the cycles, 2000 year cycle, etc., than most of the so called scientists on either side of the discussions. I’ve been reading your analysis and predictions of planets on our Earth, on our lives, for years in your Earth Changes Bulletin. You’ve done a super excellent job of explicating the intricacies of Zharkova’s work.

I think that you, more than any of the speakers we’ve seen at the streaming climate conferences, can speak to the role of the planets. We both know that lots of talk is going into “Dalton min.” “Maunder min.” “Ice age” “This period” and “That period” “Sunspots” “200 yr cycle” “400 yr cycle” etc. etc. etc. Well, I haven’t heard one person mention “distance between Sun and Earth” “gravity” “effects of large planets” “Barycenter” “2000 year cycle” “effects of all planets.” I am sure that it is a fact that not 1 in 1000 people know what the “barycenter” is. They have never even heard the name. Most people can say that the “Earth orbits the Sun.”

It has been a shock for me to learn this year that there is such a thing as a barycenter. It was a couple months ago that you mentioned casually that the planets can affect the sun. I took note of it, when you said it. It kind of shocked me. I raised the issue with you a few days later. You reconfirmed it. It had a big impact on me, because it changed my relationship with the sun. I looked at it differently. It is easy for any of us to say “the Sun affects the planets” but “the planets affect the sun.” That is in the same league as the geo-centric world being confronted by Copernicus.

I am rattling on with this topic, because I want you to see and appreciate how special your knowledge on this topic. ~Dan Youra, Editor, Youra Studios, Producer, Survive Global Cooling October, 2019 For Dan Youra’s vita and publications, go to Survive Global Cooling
