Earth’s Mysterious Third Radiation Ring Driven By ‘Different Physics’

According to the new research, which was headed by UCLA’s Yuri Shprits, the third radiation zone exists at what the scientists are calling “ultrarelativistic energies,” while consisting of an additional medium narrow belt that lasts for about a month. This middle band is comprised of extremely energetic particles known as ultrarelativistic electrons — electrons so energetic that they move close to the speed of light. The region the belts occupy range from about 620 to 32,000 miles (1,000 to 50,000 km) above the Earth.

...

"This study shows that completely different populations of particles exist in space that change on different timescales, are driven by different physics and show very different spatial structures," noted Shprits in a release. Consequently, the Van Allen Belts can no longer be seen as one consistent mass of electrons. Rather, they behave according to their own energies and react to the various disturbances of space.

The Earth is going to Burn and we’re all going to die (sooner).

“Different” physics? What are those supposed to be?

its heaven. simple. we are finally able to see the halo or ghost image of heaven which we can never see with our current physical selves. someday, when Christ returns, this “new Physics” will explode upon the earth, tearing the current reality apart.

WashDC is doing a fine job of tearing apart the current reality on earth ready. No extra-mortal intervention required.

***Earth’s Mysterious Third Radiation Ring Driven By ‘Different Physics’****

VAN ALLEN radiation belt?

The radiation belt caused by the US exploding a nuke in orbit back in the 1960s?

Didn’t know there was a third.

The way I read it, it just means that the different belts have different physical characteristics - different “regimes” of physics. I don’t think it means some sort of unknown physical principles are at work.

Check out the Electric Universe cosmology at

Http://Thunderbolts.info

For an entirely different view of how the Universe runs. This is a classic double layer and expected. . . predictable under the theory of electricity, not gravity, running the universe.

No math needed. I should get a much better grade this time.

Physics 347 Final Exam.

Question 1) Describe the “different Physics” of Michelle 0bama’s third, “ultrarelativistic” boob belt. (100 points)

Easy. Anti-gravity.
