THE COMETS of DESTINY MAJOR NAKED-EYE COMETS Countdown of the Prophetic Celestial Harbingers by Luis B
THE COMETS OF DESTINY MAJOR NAKED-EYE COMETS Countdown of the Prophetic Celestial Harbingers by Luis B. Vega [email protected] www.PostScripts.org The purpose of this study is to highlight several key and unique properties of the ‘Naked-Eye’ comets that have thus far been cataloged from 1996-2012. There appears to be somewhat of a ’pattern’ since 1996. Perhaps such a pattern of these types of comets is heralding a time in the upcoming decade that will be of some great significance prophetically. Several elements of these comets will be noted and some definitions will be provided for context. The dates used to mark the comets on the timeline are taken from data that was available, of when the comets reached their ‘epoch’ or perihelion and not necessarily when they were first ‘seen’. Metaphorically, comets seem to be ‘underlining’ the storyline of the Zodiac as it passes through certain constellations of the Mazzaroth. If the Mazzaroth is indeed the ‘Gospel’ written in the Stars as many Biblical scholars propose, then these comet’s path are accenting or underlining specific parts of the ’Witness’ or Gospel in the Cosmos. The ‘Sun, Moon and the Stars’ are like a clock with the 3 corresponding hands, the hour, the minutes and the seconds, etc. YHVH, the Creator of the Universe wants the world, and especially His Bride, those within His Church to take note of such Signs as they were designed to tell time. It could be clocking the countdown to the Rapture, the world’s judgment, and 2nd coming of Jesus. -
Project Argo
Project Argo A Proposal for a Mars Sample Return System J. Cunningham, S. Thompson, C. Ayon, W. Gallagher, E. Gomez, A. Kechejian, A. Miller Pyxis Aerospace, Cal Poly Pomona, Pomona, CA, 91768, USA AIAA Undergraduate Team Space Transportation Design Competition, 2016 Abstract Pyxis Aerospace at Cal Poly Pomona is pleased to present Project Argo, its proposal for a Mars Sample Return System as requested by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. The goal of Project Argo is to travel to Mars, retrieve a sample collected by a rover on the Martian surface, and return it to Earth. To accomplish this goal, we have designed three vehicles: the Earth Return Vehicle (ERV), the Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV), and the Mars Landing Platform (MLP). The three vehicles will launch on July 24, 2020 and travel together as one unit. The MAV and the MLP will be enclosed in a backshell/heat shield similar to previous Mars missions, and the ERV will act as the cruise stage. The vehicles will arrive at Mars Feb 17, 2021. After Mars orbit capture, the MAV/MLP will separate and enter the Martian atmosphere. The MLP, carrying the MAV, will make a precision landing within 5 km of the rover location. After the sample cache has been received and secured, the MAV will launch from the Martian surface and rendezvous with the ERV, which will have been left in a parking orbit. The sample cache will be transferred to the ERV, and the ERV will return to Earth, arriving in May 2025. The ERV will capture into Earth orbit using a combination of propulsive maneuvers and aerobraking to bring it to a suitable orbit, and rendezvous with the ISS. -
A Review and Strategy for Exploration
ASTROBIOLOGY Volume 19, Number 10, 2019 Review Articles Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. DOI: 10.1089/ast.2018.1960 Paleo-Rock-Hosted Life on Earth and the Search on Mars: A Review and Strategy for Exploration T.C. Onstott,1,* B.L. Ehlmann,2,3,* H. Sapers,2,3,4 M. Coleman,3,5 M. Ivarsson,6 J.J. Marlow,7 A. Neubeck,8 and P. Niles9 Abstract Here we review published studies on the abundance and diversity of terrestrial rock-hosted life, the environments it inhabits, the evolution of its metabolisms, and its fossil biomarkers to provide guidance in the search for life on Mars. Key findings are (1) much terrestrial deep subsurface metabolic activity relies on abiotic energy-yielding fluxes and in situ abiotic and biotic recycling of metabolic waste products rather than on buried organic products of photosynthesis; (2) subsurface microbial cell concentrations are highest at interfaces with pronounced chemical redox gradients or permeability variations and do not correlate with bulk host rock organic carbon; (3) metabolic pathways for chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms evolved earlier in Earth’s history than those of surface-dwelling phototrophic microorganisms; (4) the emergence of the former occurred at a time when Mars was habitable, whereas the emergence of the latter occurred at a time when the martian surface was not continually habitable; (5) the terrestrial rock record has biomarkers of subsurface life at least back hundreds of millions of years and likely to 3.45 Ga with several examples of excellent preservation in rock types that are quite different from those preserving the photosphere-supported biosphere. -
