Big day tomorrow, my first Ironman attempt. 3.8km swim, 180km ride followed by a marathon (42.2km/26.2miles). Wish me luck, Nostr! Keeping the race gear spread photo tradition going, here’s mine…...

Wow! That is massive!!
To help normal folks wrap their head around this, I challenge you to train for a half marathon. As you cross the finish line, consider turning around and doing it a second time. And that is just the run part of this event 😁

Good luck Richard and remember to smile.

Yes but the steep decline could have started in 2012, and what the Mayans were referring to with their end of the world predictions

Food for thought: I assume over the past 100y measurements got very precise hence the accurate dotted line downwards. Now what if the field gets more intense again over the next 100y. Now let’s sa...

They derive the old data points in a number of ways. Ancient pottery contains magnetic particles that realign with earth's magnetic field after kilning for example.

Ancient tree rings do a similar thing with minerals they accumulate and deposit.

Ash from forest fires and volcanism lay down soil layers do a similar thing as they cool.

This is a chart of Earth's magnetic field strength over the last 18,000 years.
I assume folks here know how to read a chart...


Earth's magnetic field strength may not be as weak as it was during the Younger Dryas catastrophe, but the rate of collapse is greater.

This tells us 2 things. The first being that Graham Hancock is full of shit. The root cause of the Younger Dryas event was no extraterrestrial impact, although it may very well have a role to play.

Something much bigger is at play.

> The first being that Graham Hancock is full of shit. Yes. He tells a nice story, but it's in line with 'ancient aliens' type nonsense. Light, magnetism and water are not only key for understanding health and historically significant events, but also reality itself.

Food for thought: I assume over the past 100y measurements got very precise hence the accurate dotted line downwards. Now what if the field gets more intense again over the next 100y. Now let’s say this had happened ever since but just our ability to looking back just gets the average in the mid...

when the earths magnetic field is low enough you can use wireless electronic devices without batteries. ever see tesla light up a light bulb with no wires? its just like that. granite is a fine conductor, as are many other kinds of rock. the electromagnetic behavior of material is defined by its...

Fascinating chart. So did the steep decline start in 2012?

Don't worry just coming back to test support could get 1000 to 1500 years of consolidation around this level.

Is there a link to the study where this came from?
