ABSTRACT

The 18^th Nov 2011 Visakhapatnam sky was the Darkest of the year, and the Hunter belt stars are very significant in this dark sky scenario. Does the Dark matter is emitted by the Sun or is it of a cosmic origin is one of an intriguing subject matter of a debate. The Gray sky and the Sun in a hazy atmosphere with considerable reduced brightness and so could easily be image captured of its spectrum on 20^th Nov 2011. The difference between black shadow of the Moon on the Sun and the Dark sky scenario has a pointed difference. The former as observed earlier by the present author gives rise to peculiar rays filtered and modified through the constituents of the Moon interior. While the Dark sky scenario possibly generated by the Sun or the Cosmic Sagittarius Constellation group of Stars during 24-25^th November 2011. The Hunter in a Gray sky scenario at the early morning of 29^th Nov.2011 is very striking. And especially the Sun spectrum at Zenith at mid-day 30^th Nov 2011 captured with about a set of six filters shows the amazing Green band like ring asserts that the CME hurled into space at about 930 km/s (2 million mph) generated on the 26^th Nov 2011 the same explosion that caused the radiation storm have penetrated through the D-layers of terrestrial ionosphere and caused the background weather scenario vividly captured in my digital images.

INTRODUCTION:

The few days following the 14^th November 2011 the Visakhapatnam weather was very warm. The chilly winds of the NE Monsoon are blowing slightly in the evening time and early mornings the cold winter was experienced. CNN update 0745 GMT (1545 HKT) says Search teams combed through rural South Carolina on Thursday morning after a storm swept through the Southeast and In North Carolina, an apparent tornado south of Winston-Salem damaged "multiple structures." Daniel Griffiths BBC news reports. 17 November 2011 last updated at 03:08 GMT Scientists studying the solar system say they have found the best evidence of water out there. It is just beneath the surface of Jupiter's icy moon, Europa and liquid water could represent a potential habitat for living organisms. Britney Schmidt says from models of magnetic forces, and images of its surface, scientists have long suspected that a giant ocean, roughly 160km (100 miles) deep, lies somewhere between 10-30km beneath the ice crust.

Swedish news papers gave that “Freezing rain and snow is expected to fall across large swaths of central and northern Sweden on Friday Nov 18^th, 2011 night, prompting warnings from icy road conditions across much of the region.” SMHI has issued a class 2 warning for northwestern Sweden ahead of the extreme weather conditions set to hit Sweden as Berit rolls across the country after wreaking havoc in neighboring Norway.

Space Weather.com gives “As northern winter approaches, darkness is enveloping the countries of the Arctic. In fact, yesterday in Tromsø, Norway, night fell less than ten minutes after sunrise. Fredrik Broms photographed the sun during its few minutes above the horizon: on November 22^nd 2011 with a goodbye.” This splendid photo by Fredrik Broms has a copy right and cannot be reproduced.

CME: Energetic protons, which make up the bulk of the storm, were accelerated in the Earth’s direction earlier Saturday 26^th Nov.2011 by shock waves in a CME racing away from the sun at about 1000 km/s (2.2 million mph). The CME itself will reach Earth on Nov. 28th around 14:23 UT (+/- 7 hours). The cloud could trigger geomagnetic storms when it arrives on Monday. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras. A radiation storm that began on Nov. 26th when a magnetic filament erupted on the sun is subsiding. Nevertheless, the Earth-effects are just beginning. The same explosion that caused the radiation storm also hurled a CME into space at about 930 km/s (2 million mph) the later is expected to reach the Earth by17:21UT+/-7hours according to GSWL, USA.

 

Andhra Pradesh

 

The star Aldebaran (Rohini), as it seems to follow the Pleiades or Seven Sisters star cluster (Kanya Rasi in Hindu Astronomy) across the sky. Aldebaran is also known as Alpha Tauri (Vrishabha Rasi). In rayalseema of Andhra Pradesh the winter has set in and minimum temperatures have fallen down since 23rd Nov. 2011. In Kurnool district Wednesday morning very low temperature was recorded about 15deg C while the noon temperatures prevailed at 29 deg C. The humidity varied from 32% to about 87%. Winds were blowing about 4km/hr to about 10km/hr Anathpuram district recorded from 19 to 28 deg C with humidity 33% to 86% and winds blowing at the rate of 9 to 12km/hr. In Kadappha district temperature was from 18 to 28 deg C with considerable humidity up to 90% in the morning and in the noon it was at 57% Due to this winter chill weather has been experienced. The winds were blowing at 4 to 15kms/hr. That is why the Kadappha experienced more severe winter. In Chittoor district the the temperatures were from 24 to 41 deg C with humidity from 56% to 86% and winds had speeds from 6 to 10kms/hr. Drop in minimum temperature by 1-2 degree Celsius has been recorded in Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and north Rajasthan in the 24 hours of 23^rd Nov 2011. Moderate fog is expected over parts of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, west Uttar Pradesh, north Rajasthan and in isolated pockets of east Uttar Pradesh and Bihar during the next 24 hours. A bulletin from Meteorological Centre here today said the temperatures were below normal at one or two places over Telangana but above normal at one or two places over Coastal Andhra Pradesh and Rayalaseema. The lowest minimum temperature of 12 degrees Celsius was recorded at Adilabad. Isolated rain occurred over coastal Andhra Pradesh and Rayalaseema. The weather has been dry over Telangana. The chief amounts of rainfall recorded in cm are Tada (Nellore dist) 6, Sriharikota (A) (Nellore Dist) 5, Tirupati AP, Satyavedu (Chittoor dist) 4 each, Srikalahasti (Chittoor dist), Tirumalla (A) (Chittoor Dist) 3 each, Puttur (Chittoor dist), Sullurpet (Nellore dist), Tirupati (A) (Chittoor Dist) 2 each and Chittoor one. Nov 24^th 2011 news:  Tamil Nadu adjacent Cameroon has a low depression due it the North East monsoon became active and West mid Bay of Bengal sea is blowing the eastern winds. Tamil Nadu has heavy rains and South Coast Nellore, Rayalseem and Chittoor districts have experienced heavy rains. In the last 24 hours of 24^th Nov 2011 the rains recorded were 6cm in Thada, Tirupathi 4cms, Srikalahasti 3cms, Puttoor and Sulurpeta 2cms each and finally Chittoor recorded 1cm rain. Nellore experienced heavy rain from Saturday night to Sunday night about 25cms with Kyvalya,  Kalinga and Swarnamukhi rivers overflowing. The sea incursions, heavy tide affected Nelatoor low lying areas with inflow of water in to the houses. Buckingham canal a significant military route of erstwhile East India Co. has been overflowing with an unprecedented record. Arabian Sea low depression was located at 350kms NW from Mangalore. Jayalakshmipuram villages submerged in water and in flow entered several houses. On Sunday Puttur 11cms, Venkatagiri tirumala 10cms, Srikalahasti 9cms, Satyvedu tirupati 6cms, and Atmakur 4cms rain was recorded. Tropical cyclone 05a was located approximately 165 nm west-southwest of Cochin, India. 05a will intensify slowly as it moves closer to a subtropical ridge axis until it encounters a trough currently moving east over Saudi Arabia, at which point it is expected to recurve over the northern Arabian Sea. 

St. Cloud area: Snow and rain moved into the St. Cloud area as soon as Friday after a sunny and warm Thanksgiving Day. Temperatures in the range 44.8 to 50 degrees prevailed. Recorded high of 56, set in 1990, doesn’t appear to be in jeopardy, according to the weather service.  

Moscow: On November 23^rd, 2011 there were only about six hours of true daylight each day the sky not brightening until around 9 a.m. and dipping into twilight by 3:30. Heart of Moscow, in crisp winter air that seems to make the spotlights on the Kremlin towers shine with a hard clarity, is splendidly beautiful at night and it was a bitterly cold Saturday 26^th Nov.2011. 

The U.N. weather group said 2011, still  with one month left, was the 10th warmest year on record.  While the temperature was down from 2010, the WMO said it was higher than previous La Nina years. La Nina typically has a cooling influence on temperatures.

Astronomy:

 It is Jupiter, king among worlds in our solar system and brightest object in the November 2011 night sky. Dazzling Jupiter totally stealing the spotlight this month almost in zenith by 9.00PM, as it shines bright from evening dusk until morning dawn in the fourth week of November 2011. Jupiter comes out at evening dusk all this month, but will set an hour or more before dawn by November’s end. After soaring to its highest point for the night, Jupiter found to descends into the western half of the sky. Jupiter is found setting in the west earlier each morning as November 2011 approaches December 2011.

Earth Tremors worldwide:

An earth tremor shook parts of the Greater Manchester area today.A two-second rumble was felt over a wide area of the city just before 9am, followed by a smaller tremor some 10 minutes later. The earthquake had measured between 2.5 and three on the Richter scale. The West Midlands last month, and which measured 4.8R on the scale. Around 10 such earthquakes would be expected in the UK each year. In eastern El Salvador in a 24-hour period the brief quakes, which started Thursday, ranged from 1.8 to 4.6 in magnitude. Two earthquakes hit Japan Thursday – a 6.0-magnitude earthquake near the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant and a 6.1-magnitude quake in the northern island of Hokkaido. Just in time for Thanksgiving dinner. The U.S. Geological Survey recorded a 3.7-magnitude quake about 3:11 p.m. Thursday near Prague. The epicenter was 17 miles northeast of Shawnee and 44 miles east of Oklahoma City. The quake was described as more of a boom than a rumble. An earthquake at 5.9R magnitude rocked India's northeast, Myanmar and Bangladesh on Monday 21^st Nov 2011, triggering panic among the people. The tremor was felt at 8.47am in most parts of Assam, Nagaland, and Manipur, besides in Bangladesh and Myanmar. The epicenter was located in Myanmar, about 130 km east of Manipur capital Imphal. A mild earthquake measuring 3.4 on the Richter scale jolted Kerala's Idukki district which houses the Mullaperiyar Dam, on Saturday 26^th Nov 2011 morning. Mullaperiyar Dam developed cracks following tremors last month. Andhra Pradesh several places experienced earth tremors of magnitude 2 to 3R around 7h50mPM on Sunday November 27^th, 2011. It was felt in Guntur Vinukonda region around 7hh55mPm for about 3 secs. In Shavalyapuram it was felt at 7h50mPM and in Nujelandla Mandalam the Puvvada village felt the tremor around 7h50mPM and also it was felt in Kondalarayunipalem, Mulakuluur villages slightly. Nellore midnight, Guntur, Nalgonda, Nagarjunasagar Dam area and Prakasam district lingsamudhram region felt repeated earth tremors. On Sunday 27^th Nov 2011 at 8h15mPM Mild tremors affected Nujendla, Savalyapuram and Vinukonda. The villages Komalapadu, Mamilapalli, Makanavaripalem and Patilivaripalem experienced mild tremors. 

 

New Moon Eclipse of 24/25^th Nov 2011:

 

It is seen from Invercargill in New Zealand. A partial eclipse of sun was observed on Friday from high latitudes of southern hemisphere and including South Africa, Antarctica, Tasmania and most of New Zealand. The greatest eclipse was at 1120 hours and ended at 1317 hours. McMurdo Station on Antarctica "The temperature is around 15°F, windy, and snowy," writes astronomer Chris Walker. Many of us associate solar eclipses with a blacking out of the Sun. It fell on Friday 2011. This Sagittarius new Moon partial solar eclipse occurred on November 24 at 10:10pm PST and on November 25 at 1:10am EST/ 6:10am GMT. It images for us the interplay of light and dark, good and evil, male and female, yin and yang. Mid-eclipse occurred at 6:10 UT, at which time all of Antarctica was experiencing a partial event that covered 40% to 90% of the Sun's diameter (75% at the South Pole). Jupiter is in Venus' sign of Taurus at this solar eclipse.

 

FINDINGS:

 

The weather in Visakhapatnam has changed since Friday 18^th November 2011 to one of dense fog and in indoor people moved to rooms which are better protected and have the comfort of warmth preserved inside the rooms. The 18^th Nov 2011 Visakhapatnam sky was the Darkest of the year, and the Hunter belt stars are very significant in this dark sky scenario. Does the Dark matter is emitted by the Sun or is it of a cosmic origin is one of an intriguing subject matter of a debate. The Gray sky and the Sun in a hazy atmosphere with considerable reduced brightness and so could easily be image captured of its spectrum on 20^th Nov 2011. Contrasting is just the Sun in such an atmosphere and its glow through the haze. Does the haze also exhibit the affects of the X-ray and other radiations of the Sun? Possibly the Gray sky around the sun set is an indication of it. The Gray scenario of the sky persisted on 25^th and 27^th November 2011. What is that it makes certain clouds at a considerable height in the atmosphere to project the Gray scenario background? Are they particularly susceptible to the penetrating invisible rays of the Sun or its extreme Ultra Violet and the X-rays? What other possible rays would penetrate the D-layers of the terrestrial atmosphere? Of considerable interest is that the New Moon Night November 24^th 2011 is regarded as a Black Day. The difference between black shadow of the Moon on the Sun and the Dark sky scenario has a pointed difference. The former as observed earlier by the present author gives rise to peculiar rays filtered and modified through the constituents of the Moon interior. While the Dark sky scenario possibly generated by the Sun or the Cosmic Sagittarius Constellation group of Stars during 24-25^th November 2011.

 

IMAGES:

 

 

Fig.1 Moon captured on 17^th Nov 2011 in a movie shows the spectra with a dominant red region just like the Sun set ring on 15^th November 2011. The few days around 15^th Nov 2011 were very warm at Visakhapatnam.

 

Fig.2 shows the 18^th Nov 2011 Visakhapatnam sky as the Darkest of the year, and the Hunter belt stars are very significant in this dark sky scenario. Does the Dark matter is emitted by the Sun or is it of a cosmic origin is one of an intriguing subject matter of a debate.

 

 

Fig.3 shows the Gray sky and the Sun in a hazy atmosphere with considerable reduced brightness and so could easily be image captured of its spectrum on 20^th Nov.2011 Contrasting is just the Sun in such an atmosphere and its glow through the haze on 22^nd Nov 2011. Does the haze also exhibit the affects of the X-ray and other radiations of the Sun? Possibly the Gray sky around the sun set is an indication of it.

 

 

Fig.4 shows the Jupiter spectrum in its fineness of a bright glow. The dark background sky has reappeared on the 23^rd November 2011. But in the early morning of 24^th November 2011 the group of visible stars on the west and the East were in a Gray background of the sky scenario.

 

Fig.5 On the 25^th Nov 2011 the Hunter constellation stars were observed in a dark-gray early morning around 4h08mAM. The Jupiter has given nice spectra with the sky somewhat clear in spite of the Chilly weather.

 

 

Fig.6 the low depression clouds have appeared glittering the sky scenario with their reflections and the around 21h22mPM on 25^th Nov 2011 the sky was strikingly Gray. The reflection of the Sun shine from a window pane shows the changing pattern of the hues of the spectra obtained around 15h53mPM and again at 15h58mPM. Note the dominant Yellowish hue that dominated the spectrum around 15h58mPM. The Sun spectrum at 15h53mPM was remarkably fine without the Yellow preponderance. The Jupiter spectra obtained around 21h20m and 21h23mPM showed the noise spectral background of the cloudy weather. The study of the cloud characteristics using the Jupiter spectra would form an interesting topic of continued research.

 

 

Fig.7 shows the remarkable Gray background sky scenario with a good bright spectrum of the Sun in the afternoon around 15h42mPM on 27^th Nov.2011. In this figure for the first time I have presented details of the Belt stars intensity profiles as image captured with 14.1MP canon camera IXUS130 that records my hand shake and so provided a series of the images in possibly micro-seconds occurrence if not in milliseconds. Thus they formed multi-shot image captures. The intensity profiles are remarkable that they exhibited a distinct, vivid and beautiful charming data each separately for the three different belt stars of the Hunter in Orion constellation. In India this month following the New Moon of 24/25^th Nov 2011 is regarded as just the Month of Orion Constellation locally known as Mrigasira Rasi.

 

 

Fig. 8 shows the Hunter in a Gray sky scenario and the Sun spectrum at Zenith captured with about a set of six filters. The amazing Green band like ring asserts that the CME hurled into space at about 930 km/s (2 million mph) generated on the 26^th Nov 2011 the same explosion that caused the radiation storm have penetrated through the D-layers of terrestrial ionosphere and caused the background weather scenario vividly captured in my digital images.

 

 

Fig.9 The Moon shine reflection in the beach sand and several such images in the wet sand of the crescent moon of 29^th Nov.2011 have fascinating optical caustics. Jupiter shines bright in spite the CME and the radiation affected lower terrestrial atmosphere and stands as a glowing salute to the residence Narasimha Ashram. Its spectrum contains lot of noise information about the secondary effects of the 26^th Nov 2011 solar explosion. The morning brilliant red Sun rise is worth a careful study as its spectrum has a broader red hue in a distinct style. The Yellow persists as an outer ring!

 ABSTRACT:

            The series of Moon images on very careful examination has revealed the possible regions on the Moon surface where the magnetic monopoles exist. Another finding is that the Big Sun Spot AR1339 that turned towards the Earth has indeed caused certain type Electromagnetic radiations to reach the equatorial region much faster than the other types. Further, the img-6291kln gives the Sea wave spectra that are found to have been constituted by the Rao and Anti-Rao molecules catalyzed by the radioactive constituents of the beach sands. The November 6th, 2011 Volcano erruption in Cango might have influnced the on set of the North East Monsoon around the South India and affected the most the state of  Andhra Pradesh in India. 

Keywords: Magnetic Monopoles, new molecules, Astrophysics, Astronomy, Earth Sciences, Geophysics.

INTRODUCTION:

Heavy rains continued to lash many parts of the state, including Chennai, as the north-east monsoon remained active over the State on Tuesday 1^st Nov 2011. As overnight rains continued in the morning of Wednesday, in many places, with low-lying areas remained inundated. Chennai received a rainfall of 6.4mm. Following a good south-west monsoon, most of the water bodies and dams had good storage and the present north-east monsoon had brought copious rains, resulting in rivers and other storage bodies reaching their maximum levels. Standing crops in Cauvery delta districts including Thanjavur and Tiruchirappalli, Tuticorin and Tirunelveli had suffered damage due to the heavy rains and resultant inundation of the fields. Meanwhile, it is forecasted further heavy rainfall in Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry. The North-East monsoon, which brings in the bulk of rain for the State, had set in over the State last week. It remained active.

            Prakasam district several villages marooned due to the heavy rains on 4^th November 2011 lashing several areas. Atmakuru, Duppigunta, Chinagavaripalem and neighoubor other villages were stranded due to the overflow of the Munneruvagu in Ulavapadu mandal. The overflow of rivers Elikeru and Upputeru in the Gudulur mandal isolated about 12 villages. Patikanenivaaripalem in Singaraykonda mandal was affected by the overflow of Mutteru river.  Excepting three districts namely, Chittoor, Kadapha and Nizamabad all other districts in Andhra Pradesh have diminished underground water resources. Many regions during the last 40-50days had no rains.

Chilly Weather

Chintapalli in Visakhapatnam district recorded 10deg C on 5^th Nov.2011 making the shop keepers to close their business by 7.30PM and in the morning time there is dense fog and day temperature maximum was about 23deg C.  Dry weather continued in Andhra Pradesh in all the three important regions of the cultivation of crops. Coastal North East monsoon winds are blowing but the humidity in air is nominal. So the chilly weather is dominating an unusual thing in November with about 2 to 3 deg C lower temperatures. South Tamil Nadu coastal depression is steady but no rainfall.

Travel money:  Eleven nations have bottom-trawling fleets, for deep sea studies of marine wonders, with Spain's being the biggest.

5^th Nov 2011 BIG SUNSPOT: Sunspot AR1339 has quieted since Nov. 3rd when it unleashed an X2-class solar flare. Nevertheless, it still poses a threat for powerful eruptions. The behemoth sunspot has a "beta-gamma-delta" magnetic field that harbors energy for more X-flares. Eruptions this weekend could be Earth-directed as AR1339 turns toward our planet. After weeks with rain and overcast, it was good to see the auroras again," says photographer Helge Mortensen of Kvaløya, Norway.

The sun shot off a flare on Thursday 3^rd November 2011 afternoon from a region that scientists are calling a "benevolent monster", area is the most active part of the sun since 2005. On Nov 10^th, 2011 Astronomers have realized that this is not an average sunspot, it's a giant cluster of sunspots, several of which are larger than our entire planet. It has dozens of sunspots, including one that is the size of 17 Earths. Sunspots are kinks or knots in the sun's magnetic field. This active region is now slowly turning toward Earth, and scientists say it will be directly facing Earth in about five days. That storm region will only affect Earth if it shoots off flares and they hit our planet, which doesn't always happen with stormy areas. The region will be facing Earth for about two weeks as it rotates. Solar flares send out bursts of electromagnetic energy that can occasionally disrupt communications and electrical systems. As predicted, a coronal mass ejection (CME) hit Earth's magnetic field on Nov. 12th at approximately 0600 UT. The impact caused ground currents in Norway and a brief flurry of auroras around the Arctic Circle, but otherwise had little effect. No big geomagnetic storms are in the offing. A filament of magnetism more than 700,000 km long is curling around the sun's northeastern limb on the morning of 12^th Nov 2011. University of Nebraska freshman Evan Ludes took a picture of cloud-colors over Omaha on the morning of Nov. 10th: Iridescent colors appear when sunlight shines through water droplets in the edges of clouds. The mechanism is diffraction. The colors are at their brightest and most distinct when the droplets are small and uniformly-sized. The colors were particularly vivid since these clouds were newly formed and therefore likely had water droplets of similar shape and size. It was incredible how distinct the bands of colors were even when zoomed in at 300mm!

Asteroid: The circular asteroid, named 2005 YU55, is about 400 meters wide and will come closer than the Moon, zipping by at a distance of 325,000 km, The time of the nearest flyby is expected to be at 23:28 GMT.

Earthquakes

SANTIAGO: A 5.8 magnitude earthquake shook northern Chile early on Saturday, but there were no immediate reports of any damage to property or copper mines in the area, emergency and mine officials said. The temblor struck at 0713 GMT and was centered 13 miles (22 kms) northeast of Antofagasta, at a depth of 20.5 miles (33 kms), the U.S. Geological Survey reported, revising the quake down from an original reading of 6.0 magnitude. A union official at Anglo American's 90,000 tonne per year Mantos Blancos deposit near the epicenter said workers had felt the tremor, but operations were not affected.

Srinagar and Chandigad: November 7^th, 2011

A moderate earthquake today rocked Kashmir Valley, Punjab and Haryana for about a few seconds around evening at 5h29mPM but there were no reports of any loss of life or damage to property. People scampered out of their homes in panic in the Valley as the quake, lasting a few seconds, struck at 1729 hours. Mild tremors were also felt in many parts of Punjab, Haryana and the Union Territory of Chandigarh, officials said adding no loss of life or damage to property was reported. The epicenter of the temblor, measuring a magnitude of 6R was Hindukush region in Afghanistan.

Oklahoma:

Earthquakes of up to 5.6 magnitudes have shaken Oklahoma; the first quake was recorded on Saturday5th November 2011 morning at a magnitude of 4.7. The second came on Saturday night and is the largest ever recorded in Oklahoma, topping a tremor of 5.5 magnitudes in 1952.

CNN: A 6.9-magnitude earthquake struck deep under the ocean floor northwest of Okinawa, Japan, near noon Tuesday, 8^th November 2011 according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The temblor, which hit at 11:59 a.m. (9:59 p.m. Monday ET), was measured at a depth of 209.5 kilometers (130.2 miles), according to the USGS. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center did not issue any alerts, saying there was no tsunami generated by the quake the epicenter was 218 kilometers (136 miles) northwest of Naha, Okinawa, and 497 kilometers (309 miles) from Taipei, Taiwan, the USGS said.

A 5.6 magnitude earthquake killed seven people in eastern Turkey late Wednesday, less than three weeks after a massive quake killed many people. The quake occurred at 1923 GMT, with the epicenter in the Edremit district, some 15 kilometers (nine miles) from the Van province, according to the Istanbul-based Kandilli Observatory. The USGS put the magnitude at 5.6R, after having earlier put it at 5.7R.

The 6.3-magnitude quake was centered 12 miles (20 kilometers) beneath the Molucca Sea, Ternate, and the town in North Maluku province that is closest to the epicenter.

The volcano

A spectacular eruption of Mount Nyamulagira in eastern Congo with the volcano began erupting Nov. 6, 2011 and has several lava fountains spewing up to 650 feet (200 meters) into the air. Nyamulagira, which generally erupts every two years, rumbled to life at 8h 06m p.m. on Sunday, spewing lava, smoke, and ash throughout Virunga National Park. The volcano sits within the park, about 25 miles (40 kilometers) north of the city of Goma. The volcano could continue erupting for weeks and even months.

The Full Moon

The Full moon as seen from Visakhapatnam a photo reported by K.R. Deepak of The Hindu Newspaper given with no details of the camera type settings used. See the notes Nos.1 & 2 given below.

Our Findings:

Fig.1 gives the triangle stars as observed in Visakhapatnam evening Gray Sky. For comparison the Scientific American picture is scale arranged to have guidance to understand the orientation of the Triangle of the West sky. The crescent Moon and the nearby star prominent have relative brightness i.e. fascinating.

Fig.2  gives out the intensity profiles of the Sun set hues as observed at the time of a festival celebrations in the River Brahmaputra on Tuesday Nov1st,2011. Note the Hunter observed on 4^th November at 03h49mPM provided a nice view of the Hunter Constellation prominent stars with a Gray Sky background. The Moon and the Jupiter at the extreme diagonal points of Canon IXUS 130 camera frame is helpful to watch the Moon shifting its position in the background of fixed stars. The mvi6041 around 10h47mPM on 3^rd Nov 2011 presents a view of the half Moon. The Gray Sky hue has been noted on the 3^rd Nov 2011 evening around 22h45mPM.  

Fig3. The Gray Sky has been vividly observed on the 4^th November 2011 around 17h23mPM and the spectrum of the Moon in this background is very faint but fine. The Moon over my home Narasimha Ashram around 17h25mPM is a photo album picture, over the far-fetched Gray Sky. The intensity profile provides Gray Shading of the Sky from the Sea horizon to the Zenith. The Moon spectrum reflects the Solar flare affects and has been surmised from the intensity profile and along with certain lunar topography features.

Fig.4  gives the overcast Gray hue of the Visakhapatnam sky and a noteworthy image obtained by me is the img_6068kln at 17h20mPM on the 5^th Nov.2011 the gives out the reddish hue of the Lunar topography. A comparative study with the previous such lunar topography images obtained by me and reported as well in this article elsewhere have been found extremely useful to gauge the Lunar Surface features of remarkable secrets. The Narasimha Ashram terrace image of the sky at around 05h18mAM  on the 6^th Nov.2011 is remarkable since it has the Gray hue nicely seen all over the Sky in spite of the dawn twilight. Around 20h04mPM on 5^th Nov 2011 the relative positions of the Jupiter and the Moon a little far away over the Narasimha Ashram terrace is very illustrative. The 5^th evening Moon spectrum in the Gray hue background sky at around 17h26mPM is very striking. The Gray sky hue and the Bay of Bengal at Visakhapatnam beach sea waters Gray hue have been image captured in the img_6071kln along with the ionosphere airglow and the Moon. The composite intensity profile of the different color hues is a nice finding.  The amazing Gray sky over cast existed over the days 4^th, 5^th, 6^th,7^th and then got modified with poked structure on the 8^th November 2011.The NE monsoon clouds provided a nice back drop for the ionosphere layers at the equatorial region in India for the Thursday, 3^rd November 2011 solar flare has affected the weather scenario in Visakhapatnam. 

The Fig 5 of the present article at my blog post indicates the enormity of the X-ray, Ultra-Violet and other radiations influence on the shattered ionosphere layers. The Gray is visible in spite of the bright Sun set and an intensity profiles obtained by me of the images reported herein establish the fact that the Solar flares do indeed affect the weather scenario in the equatorial region of Southern India Peninsula. The brilliant gives at the Sun set time exceptionally good dispersion of the radiance of the Sun. This is image captured in img_6100kln.

In Fig.6 the bright Sun spectrum in the evening of 6^th Nov.2011 around 17h00mPM exhibits the excellent Yellow splash ring and an orange ring at some considerable distance of diffraction. The spectrum around 17h04mPM on the same day gives the dominant red hue. Around 17h03mPM on the same day the Sea has a Gray hue in spite that the Sky is overcast with a deep blue hue. This is a very significant observation. Luckily in the night around 21h19mPM on 6^th Nov.2011 the Spectrum of Jupiter could be recorded. The most significant finding img_6083kln is that of the Lunar Topography giving out the details of the so-called sea regions. Undoubtedly as NASA found the Titanium rich soil is present on the lunar surface. But I have a finding that is much more consistent with my previous report in the Indian Science Congress.  

Fig.7 Another finding was the relative size of the three Belt stars of the Hunter constellation around 03h30mAM of 7^th Nov. 2011 given in Fig. 5  see above. An attempt has been made on the 7^th Nov2011 to movie capture with Canon IXUS130 camera the Lunar topography around 7h19mPM. The Jupiter spectrum has exhibited certain nice features around 18h59mPM of the planet brightness, as vividly illustrated of its intensity profile of the img_6136kln in the Fig.7 of this article. The Sun spectrum through the clouds around 15h21mPM img_6139kln given along with its intensity profile shows marked influence of the Solar flare on the clouds through which the Sun has been observed and image captured.

In the Fig.8 the 8^th Nov 2011 at 19h44mPM the Jupiter spectrum img_61533kln was nicely visible in spite that the Sky has a structured Gray hue. Note that the Jupiter has also been also subject on its atmosphere the intense Solar flare irradiance. Hence the short time spectrum is distinct. The Jupiter brightness relative to the Moon has been illustrated with an intensity profile in the Fig.8 along with the img_6154kln.

The Fig.9 is exclusively devoted to present the intensity profiles of the Sun through a set of six filters to reduce its brightness but yet retaining its main features. The remarkable finding is the Green hue around its magnetosphere. The Heliosphere magnetic field around it does gives out rapidly changing color hues indicating the incredible Solar flares.

Fig.10 of this blog post gives, Moon versus the Jupiter relative brightness and its proximity. A festival day in India of Hindus the Moon shine reflection in Milk is regarded as auspicious and the Spectrum of the Moon reflection in the Milk kept in a stainless steel plate is reproduced here. The profile intensity gives the vivid details of the absorption properties of the milk due to the Moon reflection.  As well the scattering of Moon shine within the milk is interesting. The reflected Moon in the Milk also presents surface details of the Moon at 10h54mPM on 10^th November 2011. At 10h56mPM the slight wind produced scattering of the Moon shine reflected in the milk can be seen.

Fig.11 gives the close up view of the Moon shine reflected spectrum in the Milk with other images of it and their spectra.  A movie picture snap shots reproduces the single first order spectrum of the Moon shine and surprisingly the red hue around it dominates at 3h52mAM on 10^th Nov 2011 but has exhibited the surface features of the Moon. The nearness appearance of Moon and Jupiter is image captured at 22h49mPM on 10^th Nov 2011. The morning spectrum at 3h52mAM shows the foggy weather scenario. The caustic curves in img_6272 are due to the street Na lamp produced by the rim of the stainless steel plate in which the milk was kept. The Moon has its clear reflection just as in the air and the enlarged inset image shows the surface features of the Moon.

Fig. 12 gives the captured image of the Hunter constellation stars and as well the Sirius and the Aldebarren (Rohini) star. The 9^th Nov 2011 nearness of the Moon to Jupiter has been nicely digital frame captured. The intensity profile gives the relative brightness of Jupiter competing almost with that of the Moon. The Sun spectra of the remarkable day evening of 11^th November 2011 show the brilliant visible colors at 16h55 and 16h55mPM. The Yellow glow dominates the sky. The important finding is that the same yellow hue is absent from the airglow shine of the Moon and in its spectrum in the morning of 10^th November 2011 at 4h02mAM.

Fig 13 gives the Moon on the Sea of Bay of Bengal at Visakhapatnam coast and even the sea waters seem to have been enchanted with the glorious Moon shine of the remarkable Day 11^th November 2011. The img-6291kln gives the Sea wave spectra that are found to have been constituted by the Rao and Anti-Rao molecules catalyzed by the radioactive constituents of the beach sands. These sands are very rich in the radioactive constituents. The intensity profile given at the bottom right extreme is totally representative of the Rao and Anti-Rao molecules spectra. The upper profile presents half way through the Air and the other half inside the sea waters in a vertical view. (Given of course as a horizontal illustration).

 

Fig 14 shows the brilliant Sun on 13^th Nov 2011 produces a nice dispersive spectrum through double layers of a plastic pouch. The spectrum displays no yellow band. Red hue bands are dominant over the Green and the blue bands are minimal in intensity profile. The spectrum through an organic root red juice inside the plastic pouch has a horizontal spread and markedly projects a series of Red hue intensity profile reflecting the inner structural futures of the liquid. The img_6321kln and img_6320kln show the Sun image and its spectrum scattered within the liquid. The later image has totally subdued the spectral details depicting that only the red hue is dominant.

 Fig.15 shows the Moon embedded in a gray sky scenario along with the Jupiter. On 13^th Nov 2011 at 19h09mPM the Jupiter has been captured within the Gray sky. The Big Sun Spot AR1339 that turned towards the Earth has indeed caused certain type Electromagnetic radiations to reach the equatorial region much faster the other types. The eruption of the Mount Nyamulagira in eastern Congo Volcano in Congo region might have added to the sudden weather dryness in the Indian Peninsular coast. The morning of 14^th November 2011 was particularly warm. The chilly weather of Coastal Andhra Pradesh that existed during 1^st Nov to 4^th Nov 2011 has dwindled.

 

Fig.16 gives the image of Jupiter, Moon and Hunter just within one frame. The Moon shine was sufficiently bright but the Constellation stars and several nebulae could be image captured by the Canon Camera.

Significant findings and Conclusions:

a. The Moon has its clear reflection on the just as in the air and the enlarged inset image shows the surface features of the Moon. The profile intensity gives the vivid details of the absorption properties of the milk due to the Moon reflection.  As well the scattering of Moon shine within the milk is interesting. The reflected Moon in the Milk also presents surface details of the Moon at 10h54mPM on 10^th November 2011. At 10h56mPM the slight wind produced scattering of the Moon shine reflected in the milk can be seen.

b. The most significant finding is that the Solar flare material and the electromagnetic and other type of radiations interact with the magnetic monopoles many that exist on the Lunar Surface. Perhaps other type of X-rays etc that pass through the Moon interior also interact with the magnetic monopoles embedded deep within the structure of the Moon. A report earlier (see below the details and the published abstract reproduced Ref.1) was given by the present author of the possible identification of these magnetic monopoles during the time of a Lunar eclipse and possibly made evident due to interaction with the far Infra red emission emanating from the Earth.  The series of Moon images on very careful examination has revealed the possible regions on the Moon surface where the magnetic monopoles exist.

c. Another finding is that the Big Sun Spot AR1339 that turned towards the Earth has indeed caused certain type Electromagnetic radiations to reach the equatorial region much faster than the other types. Further, the img-6291kln gives the Sea wave spectra that are found to have been constituted by the Rao and Anti-Rao molecules catalyzed by the radioactive constituents of the beach sands. These sands are very rich in the radioactive constituents. The intensity profile given at the bottom right extreme is totally representative of the Rao and Anti-Rao molecules spectra. The upper profile presents half way through the Air and the other half inside the sea waters in a vertical view.

Notes:

1. The “geodynamo” that generates Earth's magnetic field is powered by heat from the inner core, which drives complex fluid motions in the molten iron of the outer core. But the Moon is too small to support that type of dynamo, according to Christina Dwyer, a graduate student in Earth and planetary sciences at the University of California, Santa Cruz. In the November 10 issue of Nature, Dwyer and her coauthors — planetary scientists Francis Nimmo at UC Santa Cruz and David Stevenson at the California Institute of Technology — describe how an ancient lunar dynamo could have arisen from stirring of the Moon's liquid core driven by the motion of the solid mantle above it. Tidal interactions were also thought to produce a dynamo of the Moon long ago that has no subsided when the Moon moved away from the earth. Even today the Moon is receding from the Earth at a pace of slow shift according to Dwyer and her coauthors.

2. Rocks can become magnetized from the shock of an impact, a mechanism some scientists have proposed to explain the magnetization of lunar samples. Orbital measurements of the magnetization of the lunar crust and recent paleomagnetic analyses of Moon rocks support the idea of dwindled magnetism of the early formative Moon from a liquid core explained Nimmo, a Professor of Earth and planetary sciences at UCSC. The Moon wobbles a bit as it spins (that's called precession) but the core is liquid, and it doesn't do exactly the same precession. So the mantle is moving back and forth across the core, and that stirs up the core.

“A Model for the description of observations of the effects o the transient magnetic monopole situated in the interplanetary space between the Moon and the Earth has been developed by the author and this report constitutes first of its kind data and the model analysis presented herewith. Observational data of the total lunar eclipse observed on the 4^th April 1996 was used. The data was obtained using a sensitive photodetector arrangement and whole night sky observation of the 3^rd-4^th April 1996. The distortion of the magnetic field in the solar wind plasmas umbral and penumbral regions behind the moon were analyzed in terms of the observations reported for 29^th April 1968 by the explorer 35 and 33 between 1345UT and 1430UT. Model developed attempts to analyze the difference in the number of monopoles observed.
