SPACESHIP EARTH

"We travel together, passengers on a little spaceship, dependent upon its vulnerable reserves of air and soil, all committed for our safety to its security and peace; preserved from annihilation only by the care, the work, and, I will say, the love we give our fragile craft. We cannot maintain it half fortunate, half miserable, half confident, half despairing, half slave to the ancient enemies of man, half free in a liberation of resources undreamed of until this day. No craft, no crew can travel safely with such vast contradictions. On their resolution depends the survival of us all."

“Great catastrophes of the past accompanied by electrical discharges and followed by radioactivity could have produced sudden and multiple mutations of the kind achieved today by experimenters, but on an immense scale.  The past of mankind, and of the plant and animal kingdoms, too, must now be viewed in the light of the experience of Hiroshima and no longer from the portholes of the Beagle.”
Immanuel Velikovsky, Earth in Upheaval, chapter 15, “Cataclysmic Evolution”
"For the past 23 years it has been clear that there is a danger greater than nuclear weapons concealed within nuclear power. Emissions from this one reactor exceeded a hundredfold the radioactive contamination of the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki...One nuclear reactor can pollute half the globe. Chernobyl fallout covered the entire Northern Hemisphere. 

The questions persist: How many radionuclides spread over the world?...the estimates vary from 50 × 10 to the 6th Ci, or 4–5% of the total radionuclides released from the reactor, to the reactor being essentially empty and more than 10 × 10 to the 9th Ci dispersed over the globe."

DR. ALEXY YABLOKOV, 2009

Welcome to the global nuclear scenario, the most diabolical technological 'achievement' ever foisted by homo sapiens accompanied by the greatest abyss of ignorance in the modern mind. First, we've all heard about 'megatons' of weapons, but this is nothing more than the equivalent explosive power in tons of TNT. The REALLY meaningful units represent the REAL damage:  the quantities of ionizing radiation expressed in Curies (Ci) or becquerels.

Fukushima is not 'over', there's no 'safe levels', 'nuclear war' is constant and began in 1945; nuclear power creates astronomical quantities of the most carcinogenic and mutagenic substances that exist outside of supernovae in order to boil water; well over 2000 nuclear detonations have been deployed, sending close to 2000 synthetic radio-nuclides into every nook, cranny, cell, tissue and organism on land, sea and in the air, each of which has a half-life from seconds to millions of years and a 'decay-chain' of associated and equally radio-active daughter products; hundreds of thousands of spent fuel rods are in storage, often on-site, for the majority of each of what may be 1000+ reactors world-wide; DU, or 'depleted uranium' munitions contain the most highly radio-active substances from reactor waste; and, most joyfully, tens of thousands of nuclear missiles are just sitting there awaiting their launch codes. This is only part of the legacy of 'the peaceful atom.'



We live in a universe saturated with radiation of various kinds...the entire electromagnetic spectrum is a map of, yes, radiation, both non-ionizing and ionizing, the difference being the relative power level of the emanations. Visible light, radio, infra-red and ultraviolet radiation are non-ionizing; alpha, beta, gamma and cosmic rays are ionizing...they strip off outer valence electrons in affected atoms creating ions, or atoms with an imbalanced electrical charge. Radiation is essential for life, maybe even ionizing radiation at extremely low levels, for example, in the uranium that is ubiquitous in topsoils all over the world. Higher concentrations exist in ore bodies mainly found in lava flows; indigenous people have identified 'sickness country' and places where you don't want to drink the water or even visit. All this is totally natural.



When we began to become 'civilized' we did this through a direct violation of the Hopi prophecy:  'If we dig precious things from the land we will invite disaster.' Civilization, literally, 'living in cities' is only possible because of what we have done with all the precious substances we have violently extracted from the body of Mother Earth. Being 'man, the wise', we couldn't be satisfied with having dug out just a little bit...no, we've had to keep going to the next level with digging and pumping out astronomical quantities of every precious substance in the body of Mother Earth. Stone, diamonds, iron, gold, hydro-carbons...each of these has invited its own unique manifestations of geno- and eco-cide; but uranium is the crown prince of anthropogenic disaster.

ARE WE INSANE AS A SPECIES?

"Is the global nuclear scenario...which is only the worst of an uncountable number of our collective violations of the true path of the Great Spirit...the product of an insane species? Criminally insane? If humanity were on trial for chronic premeditated mass-murder of a multitude of fellow life-forms, including himself and attempted murder of Mother Earth herself...with Mother Earth and the Great Spirit as judge and jury...what would the verdict be?"

The story below tells of my 'introduction' to the global nuclear scenario via the Hopi prophecy of koyaanisqatsi. The synchronicity of being where some of the uranium for the first atomic bombs was mined, in support of First Nations Americans who were warning us about the dangers of 'digging precious things from the land', precisely when the largest nuclear disaster in history unfolded in the Ukraine, was not only one of if not THE most powerful in my life but also inspired and empowered me on a journey of continued education and a mission of sharing this information...and warning...that went to the next level in the wake of Fukushima.

    "In April of 1986 I went to a place called Big Mountain, on the Navaho reservation in northern Arizona.  We were there to support the indigenous elders who were facing forced removal by the government; Peabody Coal (owner of Kerr-McGee, the plutonium processing company that Karen Silkwood worked for…see the movie Silkwood) wanted to strip-mine Black Mesa…a region of immense sacredness to both the Hopi and the Navaho…and site of one of the largest deposits of coal, shale and uranium on the planet.

    It was at this time that I first learned of the Hopi prophecies, whose essence has been extraordinarily conveyed in a brilliant film called Koyaanisqatsi (Hopi for 'life out of balance.') It was also at this time that I first learned of Australian physician and anti-nuclear activist Helen Caldicott, through her work with the Center for Informed Democracy in Santa Cruz.  

    I had borrowed a Geiger counter from the physics department at UCSC, and in between our sessions with the elders, the singing, dancing and drum circles, I would walk around taking readings on the rocks lying on the ground.  I will always remember the clicks of the alpha particles striking the sensor…as well as the momentary ominous presence of the F-16 fighter plane that swept over us at no more than one hundred feet off the ground.

    And I will never forget the headline on the newspapers the day we came down to Flagstaff, after a week of isolation in the desert:  the Chernobyl meltdown!  While I was learning of the Hopi prophecies in one of their most sacred places, what is still to date the worst nuclear accident in history (that we know of!) was happening on the opposite side of the world.  And last I heard, twenty years later, is that the molten reactor cores are still melting down through the Earth.

    This amazing synchronicity has always been a profound lesson to me.  I had been on-lab at Los Alamos National Laboratory near Santa Fe, New Mexico two years earlier, to visit my old physics lab instructor from college.  It was there that I first caught the creepy vibe of the nuclear weapons establishment and the rather 'matter-of-fact' approach of the scientists and researchers.  In a museum at LANL I saw mock-ups of the atomic bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and was reminded that the scenario of how a nuclear apocalypse might happen as envisioned by Stanley Kubrick in his film Dr. Strangelove was not at all far out.  I was all too aware that people like Edward Teller existed and had influenced legions of nuclear strategists and imperial technocrats.

    I had also learned that the Hopi prophecies had predicted that as a result of 'digging precious things from the land', a 'gourd of ash would be thrown from the sky, which would burn the land and boil the oceans.'"

"An astronomical amount of ignorance exists in the public mind about what 'nuclear war' actually is and what its consequences are for life as we know her on Mother Earth. In the article below I give a strategic over-view of the global nuclear scenario prior to Fukushima.

'Nuclear war' is NOT mushroom clouds and hydrogen bomb fireballs; nuclear war is the dissemination of radio-active substances...TOTALLY INVISIBLE radio-active substances...throughout the biosphere. This process began with the Trinity detonation at White Sands New Mexico on 16 July 1945 and has been growing exponentially ever since. Immeasurable quantities of close to 2000 synthetic radio-nuclides have been and are being produced constantly through the 2000+ atmospheric atomic 'tests' and the operation of the 1000+ nuclear reactors currently in use around the world. The U.S. Navy has more reactors than any other single bureaucratic, industrial or military entity on the planet."

"When It Comes to Waste, Navy Has It All"

"The high level radioactive waste from submarine reactors is just one of several types of radioactive waste generated by nuclear ships. Other types are liquid waste, solid waste, and so-called 'mixed waste'...

Until 1973, the Navy routinely discharged its liquid radioactive waste within 12 miles of shore...
Before 1973, the Navy reports, it released 'millions of gallons per year' of radioactive liquids into harbors. Since then, the annual discharge has been “less than 25 thousand gallons per year.” That does not mean that the waste is not generated. Rather, it means simply that the waste is discharged into the open ocean...
In 1991, nuclear-powered ships in the U.S Navy produced more than 88,500 cubic feet of unclassified radioactive solid waste, not counting reactor waste..."
NOTE: THIS NEXT ARTICLE IS AN INTERESTING HYPOTHESIS...I DON'T THINK IT TRANSPIRED BUT IT EASILY COULD HAVE...



"THE U.S. NAVY AIMS TO SINK ITS RADIOACTIVE WARSHIPS OFF KOREA" 
YOICHI SHIMATSU (2017)
http://www.rense.com/general96/USnavysink.html#sthash.q3cvSmW2.dpuf

"Three USN super-carrier strike groups are now heading for the Sea of Japan, a narrow (1,000 kilometers at the widest point) enclosed body of water. There in its calm dark waters, a dozen big ships along with some 130 naval jets and dozens of helicopters will be parked like ducks in a row inside a shooting gallery.


If the North Koreans hesitate to open fire, for obvious reasons of national survival and common sense, there is a back-up team of shooters, namely the Maritime Self-Defense Force of Japan. A volley of Mitsubishi anti-ship missiles should do the job of sinking the U.S. Seventh Fleet and drowning the American sailors. The news media will assign the blame on Pyongyang for the dastardly deed. The Second Korean War will ensue, leaving millions dead from explosions and smoke, and in the chaos and fright nobody will notice the treacherous charade that sparked the brutal massacres of friends and foes alike."


The only problem is that a very similar scenario has indeed happened before...it was a 'false flag' operation called Pearl Harbour. Historical veracity tells us that the U.S. goaded Japan into attacking by cutting off their fuel supplies and knew full well what their plan was. The U.S. Navy left all their old rust-buckets at Pearl Harbour but moved the good ones elsewhere. 'Planned obsolescence.' 

And remember what Pearl Harbour led to? The entry of the U.S. into World War 2. If another similar 'World War' were to erupt, its finale would not be a single atomic explosion like Hiroshima. And Einstein observed that World War 4 would be fought with sticks and stones.

But the most important thing to realize is that regardless of any of a new 'Pearl Harbour' (which in fact 9/11 functioned as) the global nuclear scenario rages out of control, spreading mutagenic and carcinogenic substances and hot particles, totally invisible and undetectable to the human senses, throughout the entire biosphere...on land, in the ocean, in the atmosphere, in every living being. 

We ARE the experiment.


CARL SAGAN AND THE NUCLEAR SCENARIO:  A cosmic perspective on terrestrial problems

Dedicated to all the astronomers and activists of Earth, and life as we know it.  Long may you live!!!

    It’s no coincidence that the man who did the most to awaken our generation to the awe and mystery of the cosmos was also one of the most ardent anti-nuclear activists the world has ever seen.



    Astronomer Carl Sagan made great contributions in the field of planetary sciences before his name became almost synonymous with “extra-terrestrial intelligence.”  When he entered the realm of mass-communication with his comprehensively mind-blowing television series Cosmos, millions of star-gazers and space-cadets around the world came to love his New York accent and his waving arms telling us there were “billions and billions” of stars out there just like our sun.  In our own galaxy.  His question:  so why haven’t we heard from anyone else?



    Sagan’s hypothesis was that there may be no one else out there…not because they were never there, but because they destroyed themselves before they could go “inter-stellar.”  He believed that “technological civilizations” evolve in the same way as human beings, going through stages of adolescent recklessness before maturing into stability.  The difference was that instead of wrecking their parents’ house or car, like a teenager, the young technological civilization would tend to wreck its spaceship, its planet;  or worse, completely destroy itself through the mis-use of advanced technologies.



    How far are we from this scenario?  The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists has a little clock that’s been at only a few minutes to mid-night for several decades. Midnight, of course, represents the unleashing of a nuclear “Armageddon”, whether intentional or accidental.  Many would argue that the minute hand has moved much closer to the “witching hour” since the Bush administration and associated New World Order enterprises unveiled their new “nucular” agenda, which involves rolling back or destroying previously existing test-bans and non-proliferation treaties, building a new generation of reactors, forming a “cartel’ of uranium-exporting and processing states, and actually adopting a “first-strike” orientation in terms of military strategy…all changes which ten years ago would have been regarded as unacceptably stark-raving mad.  Today, it’s still stark raving mad…but acceptably so;  the mind-managers have had their noses to the grindstone!"

GLOBAL RADIO-LOGICAL CATASTROPHE and ‘CATACLYSMIC EVOLUTION’
"In recent years military strategists have shifted from nuclear to technetronic* weapons, a leap as great as that from gunpowder to atom bombs.  The  creation and accumulation, the ‘stock-piling’ and dispersal of incomprehensibly astronomical quantities of synthetic radio-nuclides represents a planetary biological weapons system exceeded in scale and intensity only by extra-terrestrially-originating catastrophes our planet has experienced throughout her long history.
On the ‘grand chessboard’ of today, major players are able covertly to create‘climate disruption’ which is blamed on ‘global warming’, or to create earth-quakes which may destroy a city and/or industrial installation, giving the appearance of a ‘natural disaster’ and releasing massive global radio-logical warfare, in the case of Fukushima.  In his own limited way, humanity deploys his most advanced technologies in order to ‘emulate the gods’ of cosmic death and destruction;  this much we know.  The mystery is…why?
Denial, omission, marginalization, disinformation and outright lies have surrounded every aspect of ‘the peaceful atom.’  In the wake of Fukushima, public relations, the engineering of consent, and reality-inversion have reached unprecedented levels of incredulity.  The global mass-media apparatus continues to be instrumental in maintaining the ‘deafening silence’ on all things nuclear.  Meanwhile, the radio-active fires rage on, bringing ‘hot particles’, cancer and mutation to every corner of the globe."

"HOT LEGACY", THE WORLD WITHOUT US, ALAN WEISSMAN
“…used nuclear fuel, some of it decades old, languishes in holding tanks.Oddly, it is up to a million times more radioactive than when it was fresh. While in the reactor, it began mutating into elements heavier than enriched uranium, such as isotopes of plutonium and americium…At WIPP…the U.S. Department’ of Energy is legally required to dissuade anyone from coming too close for the next 10,000 years. After discussing the fact that human languages mutate so fast that they’re almost unrecognizable after 500 or 600 years, it was decided to post warnings in seven of them anyway, plus pictures…Since Palo Verde opened in 1986, its used fuel has been accumulating, because there’s nowhere else to take it. In plants everywhere, spent fuel ponds have been re-racked to squeeze in thousands of more fuel assemblies. Together, the world’s 441 functioning nuclear plants annually produce almost 13,000 tons of high-level nuclear scrap…”

RACHEL CARSON, SILENT SPRING
THROUGH A NARROW WINDOW (chapter thirteen)
"For mankind as a whole, a possession infinitely more valuable than individual life is our genetic heritage, our link with past and future. Shaped through long aeons of evolution, our genes not only make us what we are, but hold in their minute beings the future – be it one of promise or threat. Yet genetic deterioration through man-made agents is the menace of our time, ‘the last and greatest danger to our civilization.’
Again, the parallel between chemicals and radiation is exact and inescapable.
The living cell assaulted by radiation suffers a variety of injuries: its ability to divide normally may be destroyed, it may suffer changes in chromosomal structure, or the genes, carriers of hereditary material, may undergo those sudden changes known as mutations, which cause them to produce new characteristics in succeeding generations. If especially susceptible the cell may be killed outright, or finally, after the passage of time measured in years, it may become malignant.
All these consequences of radiation have been duplicated in laboratory studies by a large group of chemicals known as radio-mimetic or mutation-imitating. Many chemicals used in pesticides – herbicides as well as insecticides – belong to this group of substances that have the ability to damage the chromosomes, interfere with normal cell division, or cause mutations. These injuries ot the genetic material are of a kind that may lead to disease in the individual exposed or they may make their effects felt in future generations.
Only a few decades ago, no one knew these effects of either radiation or chemicals. In those days the atom had not been split and few of the chemicals that were to duplicate radiation has as yet been conceived in the test tubes of chemists. Then in 1927, a professor of zoology in a Texas university, Dr. H. J. Muller, found that by exposing an organism to x-radiation, he could produce mutations in succeeding generations. With Muller’s discovery a vast new field of scientific and medical knowledge was opened up. Muller later received the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his achievement, and in a world that soon gained familiarity with the grey rains of fall-out, even the non-scientist now knows the potential results of radiation.
Although far less noticed, a companion discovery was made by Charlotte Auerbach and William Robson at the University of Edinburgh in the early 1940’s. Working with mustard gas, they found that this chemical produced permanent chromosome abnormalities that cannot be distinguished from those induced by radiation. Tested on the fruit fly, the same organism that Muller had used in his original work with X-rays, mustard gas also produced mutations. Thus the first chemical mutagen was discovered.
Mustard gas as a mutagen has now been joined by a long list of other chemicals known to alter genetic material in plants and animals…
Dr. Peter Alexander, an outstanding British authority, has said that the radio-mimetic chemicals ‘may well represent a greater danger’ than radiation. Dr. Muller, with the perspective gained by decades of distinguished work in genetics, warns that various chemicals (including groups represented by pesticides)…can raise the mutation frequency as much as radiation…As yet far too little known of the extent to which our genes, under modern conditions of exposures to unusual chemicals, are being subjected to such mutagenic influences."


DR. ROSALIE BERTELL

"...we all face dying at some point. Yet acceptance of one's personal death is mitigated by the experience of continuity with both past and future. Species annihilation, on the other hand, means a relatively swift (on the scale of civilization), deliberately induced end to history, culture, science, biological reproduction, and memory. It is the ultimate human rejection of the gift of life, an act that requires a new word to describe it: 'omnicide.' It is difficult to comprehend omnicide, but it may be possible to discern the preparations for it, and prevent its happening.


This requires that each of us address our own 'nuclear illiteracy.' Some years ago, I was asked by a citizens' group to come to a public hearing about a proposal to build a nuclear power plant near my hometown, Buffalo, New York. My own research had to do with the dangers of ordinary medical X rays. I was not really concerned about nuclear power plants. I thought they were totally contained, unless they had an accident...

It was new to me that nuclear industries were permitted by law to expose people routinely to ionizing radiation. I started to look back to see where these 'permissible levels' began. They were started in 1950 by the British, U.S., and Canadian physicists who had worked on the Manhattan Project, which produced the first nuclear bombs. After World War II, as early as 1946, they began exploding nuclear bombs in the Pacific. They had a theory that the radioactive fallout would only go halfway around the world--but discovered it went around two and a half times."


DR. ALEXY YABLOKOV

"For the past 23 years it has been clear that there is a danger greater than nuclear weapons concealed within nuclear power. Emissions from this one reactor exceeded a hundredfold the radioactive contamination of the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. No citizen of any country can be assured that he or she can be protected from radioactive contamination. One nuclear reactor can pollute half the globe. Chernobyl fallout covered the entire Northern Hemisphere. 

The questions persist: How many radionuclides spread over the world? How much radiation is still stored inside the sarcophagus, the dome that covers the reactor? No one knows for certain, but the estimates vary from 50 × 10 to the 6th Ci, or 4–5% of the total radionuclides released from the reactor, to the reactor being essentially empty and more than 10 × 10 to the 9th Ci dispersed over the globe (Chapter I.1). It is not known how many liquidators ultimately took part in the mitigation; a directive from the USSR Ministry of Defense, dated June 9, 1989, mandated secrecy (Chapter II.3)."

GLOBAL RADIO-LOGICAL CATASTROPHE



"The biggest realizations I’ve had about the global nuclear scenario in the wake of Fukushima are 1) it’s ASTRONOMICALLY worse than anyone can imagine, and 2) NO ONE really knows the whole story with respect to exactly what quantities and lethalities exist of the almost 2000 synthetic radio-nuclides currently poisoning the biosphere and causing ‘genomic instability’ in all kingdoms of life.  What is generally agreed upon is not numerical information but the observation that we are only just beginning to witness the biological effects of Fukushima radio-nuclides, in particular plutonium, as the incidence of anomalous cancers, symptoms of acute radiation poisoning, and mutations soar globally.  No one, no life form is immune with the possible exception of anaerobic cyanobacteria."
