There is a thread on another forum that is causing a stir talking about a potential galactic Tsunami. I was wondering if anyone had any scientific insight into this?

Heres the links...

Origional Thread:
http://www.godlikeproductions.com/bb.../22/07&mpage=1

The "abridged version" on a private site:
http://heidi-lore.tripod.com/id27.html

I know it sounds strange, but really is there any possible truth to this? It is scary.

Thanks in advance.

See, yet another question stemming from this "2012 galactic plane crossing stuff". However, here, it's gonna happen soon, March of this year from what little I read before I had to quit.

To the OP: this is pure unadulterated nonsense. There is nothing there at all.

Second, did I see some claim that Eta Carinae is going to go supernova, and that will be what fries us?

claire99,
Welcome to BAUT. My fellow BAUTers have heard this question many times, so that is why we are reacting the way we are. This stuff about a Galactic Tsunami is absolute nonsense, and the fact that it was reported on godlikeproducts is only further proof.

This guy came to GLP well into the thread talked about above. Both IP's of ESA and White are from same area in Germany.

Would some of you guys come over to GLP and tell us why this post is bull.

thanks

Many of you have been asking for a date. Let me give you one:
March 9.

I would also like to tell you my name, but I cant. What I can say is this: I dont know ESA DE personally, but I do have a pretty good idea as to who he is; so in a convoluted way, we are.

Unlike ESA DE, my scientific background is exactly zero. However, I do have contacts who tell me things in laymans terms. Tell it to me like Im a five-year old, I say. And thats what they do.

To be honest, there are some things I would much rather not know about, and the galactic tsunami is one of them. Yes, they really are using that term: tsunami.

Who are they you might very well ask.

They are the same kind of people who work at the ESA. I know them socially and sometimes on a professional basis. Im a US citizen (born in the UK) on contract in Germany. I use the term citizen guardedly, if only because my remit is not exactly civilian in the normal sense. No, Im not an MiB. Just something like that, minus the mythology. Throw in the tag semi-freelance for good measure.

I’ve been watching this thread develop, and I’m not the only one. Your moderator will already have noticed some strange IP addresses over the past few days. Intel and military monitors are all over this site, and I have no doubt that their masters (some of whom I know) are quietly sweating the nervous stuff as you begin to put the pieces together to build a very scary picture that corresponds to the real situation.

Ice,

I'm your daddy!

-- Gordon Shumway

Why go there when you can read it here?

Galactic Tsunami?

Cheers,

The first line in the thread this is referencing:

Research assistant = Sells hot dogs at the vendor outside the ESA office.

I automatically assume any the world is comming to an end posts I see are pure nonsence. So far I have always been right. If I'm ever wrong, you won't be here to point it out to me so I won't care

The concept doesn't even make sense. There's no substance in space to act the way the water does in a tsunami.

I assume you are joking, but having been a Research Assistant in a science lab, it is a lot more than being a hot dog vendor (nothing against hotdog vendors).

I just assumed the part about being an RA was as much bunk as the rest.

That was a reference to the way people tend to inflate their position in life to make themselves seem more important when they are trying to pass off littel bits of information they heard from someone who heard it from someone as fact.

Kind of like if I were to tell you I'm a rocket scientist because I work on systems related to Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles. I have a basic understanding of how an ICBM does what it does and I can hold my own in a conversation about Minuteman III's and Peacekeeper rockets but I'm far from a rocket scientist.

By saying he was a reseach assistant working for ESA what he probably ment was he works for the guy who owns the hot dog vendor on the sidewalk outside the ESA office...

Its not nearly as funny when you have to explain it... /sigh

This ridiculous assertion that this solar system will be bombarded with debris as it passes through the galactic plain is completely unfounded or supported by the evidence. This cycle of the solar system is well understood and has been well studied. We are gravitationally bound to this planet as it is to the sun as it is to the galactic mass. In a cluster of galaxies, If you want to worry about some thing try working out where it might be safe to live.

Away from immanent volcanic eruption.

Away from active tectonic plat movement.

Away from the open sea where a tsunami might get me.

On stable flat land.

Not near to a flood prone river.

Not in a war zone.

Away from extremest groups activates.

In a temperate weather zone.

On a planet that is not under imminent danger from a novering star.

Protected from the possibility of impacting space debris.

Or just living with a nagging wife.

THIS thing called life is fraught with risk.

Only worry about what you can fix. . . Sigh,

I just need to quit reading stuff on GLP. It makes Richard C. Hoagland's theories look sound by comparison.

But if I've got it right, March 9th - 10th is D-day. That's when the "tsunami" hits and we all die. Well, mark your calendar............


-Richard

Oh dear me... Doomed.

Well the fact is that yes we are all going to die. What is it that you see as a direct threat to humanities existence here on planet Earth and, when is this most likely to Begin happening? Hay the 10th of March is just a couple of weeks away.
We obviously differ on the risk to humanity that the galactic plain might have to life on Earth. Or you are just pocking a stick at it. . . ..
I see that a group of astro-buffs have worked out that Hypotheses is going to get mighty close in the year 2036. Mighty close could just as easily be a miss.
Is this the extinction event you are talking of. No probably not. The fact that a ever larger group of astronomers are constantly scanning the near to earth objects looking for the sort of thing you seem to be so worried about. With ever improving equipment we are looking for that rouge object.
I will at this point voice a concern, When a object is drawn close to the sun as comets are. Would it not be normal enough for their track to be Alard by the slingshot of solar gravity. Could this change be calculated to give us the best chance of deflection before that occurs, If it were shown to be a possible risk object. Do we stay lucky.
Just by miss quoting what you did not hear can a panic button be pressed. Like. . . These larger than 40km objects are rare and few are actually Earth crossing object. One in a million year event is of some concern when its been five million since the last one.. but.
None of this is revalent as none of this is even any where likely to happen. ever. or tomorrow.

Mark,

Is this addressed to me? I do not believe in this in any way, shape, form, or fashion -- the thought that someone would think I did just sort of mortifies me, like having to answer "Are you now, or ever have been, ......" That last post of mine was sarcasm, from my last forray into that fever swamp of a board, where I learned that March the 9th is Doomsday according to their "sources".

-Richard

Is there a water in space?
I dont think so..

GRAVITY tsunami. The "reporters" of this supposed event used the word tsunami for its thrill value more than any scientific knowledge
