Just saw this earlier, Astr0, and it seems that theres a storm a brewin!
I read it could be the early onset of winter on the moon there, and Im not really familiar with astronomy, but it does appear to be result of some torsion fields within it's core.

If thats a moon, it looks awfully alive!

i did a split channel on that in paintshop.  blink blink
um. alrighty then.  i think i must be seeing things cause i see something that theoretically, should not be there.  don't ask cause it's too weird.  just suffice it to say that i think they're leaving out some of the details.

So do I! It makes my day!

I liked the recent post sent to us about the Aurora Borealis and the strange " clapping" noise that it was reported making in some sections..... Someone quipped that it was the Aurora giving itself its own applause.. The scientists can't figure it... they know it must be caused by the high energy particles which cause the light show of the Aurora but they have no idea about the sound.

I thought immediately of Eric Dollard and his sound coming from his ball of blue light..... surely there is a correlation somewhere, But right now whoever might know sure does not seem to be talking too much!!!
I will try to post the link tomorrow! Too tired tonight!!!!

Anybody else have any ideas on this or the vortex on Saturns Moon? Filed under..... The scientists don't know!  Linda

What is happening is the vortex is rotating much quicker than the rest of the moon, and it's causing the moon to basically slosh around like a sphere of water in a vacuum. the video I posted shows it flexing and stretching as it rotates, and the form of the moon is anything but spherical...more like a blob of gel changing shape as it spins, and the poles look as if they are trying to break free and separate from the main body.

Eerie? Yes...very!
