I've rarely read the work of any scientist more cautious or exacting. Anyone with more than a Discovery Channel's knowledge of cosmology who has read his stuff reached their own conclusions.
Svalgaard's work is great, too.
This is why you should never let folks who prefer to look like they understand the science (instead of those unafraid to say 'I don't know') be in charge of who get's the money.
Perhaps you can explain where all these cosmic rays came from and why are there so many within the Milky Way ? If they all came from super novas, would that not require a significant amount of cosmic ray emissions from these super nova ? Also, are the cosmic rays affected by gravity, since they apparently have mass. Could their density be higher in the galactic plane due to the effects gravity has on space time ? And what speed are they traveling at ? Just curious. Was shocked to discover they have mass.
