You know all this talk about the latest Mars landing made me think of something. We have this thread on Jupiter, and it's warming up. Then they talk about Mars warming up. http://www.heartland.org/Article.cfm?artId=17977 And of course we have our own global warming. So I was wondering what all three of these have in common. Iowanics undies? No. SUVs? No Coal fired power plants? No. Al Gore? No. Polar Bears on a chunk of ice? No. The sun? Yes. |

My undies are certainly getting a lot of milage. Which is the problem, I suspect. |

Do any of you boffins know anything about gamma bursts from the sun ? |

The three planets, with their minimum distance from the sun and the temperature range. Notice Jupiter is about 4 to 5 times farther from the sun and is still a bit warmer than the coldest range of Mars, and Earth both .... not from solar warming. Jupiter 460 million miles -101 F (cloud top) Mars 128 million miles -200 F to 32 F Earth 91 million miles -128 F to 136 F |

 Jupiter's newest "blemish" used to be a white oval-shaped storm but turned brick red as its clouds rose and reacted to solar UV radiation. .......... The advent of yet another red spot in Jupiter's turbulent atmosphere may support the idea that the planet is undergoing climate change. ........... http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news ... photo.html |

Another factor in all the planets and moons is gravitational changes. Tidal forces not only affect the fluid on the surface (ocean tides) but also the temperature of the molten core. We still do not understand nor are able to measure gravitational waves which change the actual size of everything (including measuring equipment) but is thought to account for a significant portion of the universe's background heat. We may be being bombarded with gravitational waves right now and not know it but may be heating up as a solar system because of it. |

J; I haven't heard of gamma bursts from our sun. From outside the solar system, yes, but not from the local furnace. Gamma rays are preety powerful, I'd heard. Couldn't they plow all the way thru of atmosphere and do some damage down here?

Well, I have waited and I just can't believe that no one has mentioned that Saturn's, Netune's and Pluto's temps have also been rising.  So I guess you can say there is no correlation between 3 plants having rising temps but it would make sense to see if any others are having the same problem. But if Mars, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto are having a rise in temps, which they are  , then hunters theory actually holds water, so to speak.
