Kürzlich habe ich folgenden (für mich eher unglaubwürdigen-ich kenne mich ein bischen mit Astronomie aus) Bericht gefunden, der - sollte er doch der Wahrheit entsprechen - extrem beunruhigend ist. Was haltet Ihr davon? (Ich kann nur nochmal betonen: ich glaube nicht daran. Aber ein bischen Panik zu verbreiten ist doch immer gut )
" The Sun Will Explode In Less Than Six Years!
Wednesday September 18, 2002
The Sun is overheating and will soon blow up . . . taking Earth and the rest of the solar system with it, scientists warn. The alert was issued after an international satellite photographed a massive explosion on the surface of the Sun that sent a plume of fire 30 times longer than the diameter of Earth blasting into space. "It's a sign that the Sun is ready to blow . . . I don't know if I can put it any more plainly than that," says Dutch astrophysicist Dr. Piers Van der Meer, a top expert affiliated with the European Space Agency. "It will be like a nuclear bomb trillions of times more powerful than the one dropped on Hiroshima going off at the center of our solar system. "When that happens Earth will be instantly incinerated along with all life on it. It's like when a marshmallow falls into a fire, blackens and melts." Scientists say the problem is the Sun is literally getting too hot. The core temperature of the Sun is normally 27 million degrees Fahrenheit. But in recent years it's climbed to an alarming 49 million degrees, says Dr. Van der Meer, leader of a team of Amsterdam-based space scientists who've been tracking the changes in the Sun. "It's quite similar to when a star goes supernova at the end of its life," Dr. Van der Meer explains. "Over the past 11 years, we've seen our Sun go through changes frighteningly like those that took place in Kepler's Star right before it was observed going supernova in 1604." Temperatures on the surface of the Sun have been steadily climbing over the past decade, the scientists say. "This, we believe, not man-made pollution, is responsible for global warming and the alarming effects that we've seen take place on Earth such as the melt-down of the Antarctic ice shelves," asserted Dr. Van der Meer. The July 1 images were taken by the space-based Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), a satellite designed to study the internal structure of the Sun and operated jointly by NASA and the European Space Agency. "The explosion . . . known technically as an eruptive prominence . . . was colossal," said Dr. Van der Meer. "This is the final warning sign we've all been dreading." The Dutch scientists calculate that if temperatures keep climbing at the current rate the Sun will be unable to sustain itself. "It will blow apart like an out-of-control nuclear reactor within six years," predicts Dr. Van der Meer. NASA refuses to confirm the Euro-pean scientists' assertions and a White House source said, "We don't need anyone spreading more panic now." "

"I'll Follow the Sun
This is a hoax.
Claim: Scientists are predicting that the sun will explode in less than six years.
Status: False.
Origins: All one need know about this article is that it originated with the Weekly World News, an entertainment tabloid with its tongue firmly embedded in its cheek to a depth not measurable by any instrument known to man. Unfortunately Yahoo!, a primary news source for many people on the Internet, reprints some Weekly World News articles in their TV News section under a heading of "Entertainment News & Gossip," a title that doesn't convey a strong "bogus" warning to readers who don't notice the original source is the Weekly World News (or don't know what the Weekly World News is). So, after Yahoo! picked up this alarming WWN article about scientists' predicting that the sun would blow up within six years, it was forwarded on and circulated by people who knew only that it came from a "real news source." (For the record, although the European Space Agency is a real and respected scientific organization, no "Dr. Piers Van der Meer" turns up as anyone who has ever had his name attached to a scientific journal article about astronomy, astrophysics, or planetary science, a rather odd circumstance for someone claimed to be "a top expert affiliated with the European Space Agency.")
