November 2, 2009, will be a red-letter day for the Belgian space industry and space sciences. A rocket containing PROBA2 will be fired off at 02:50 Belgian time from a Russian launch base in Plesetsk. PROBA2 will be the first ESA space weather mission dedicated to observing the Sun. Another important item: the satellite was built in Belgium.
The PROBA2 satellite is small, but is stuffed with brand new technologies that will be tested in space during real flight operations. It is what we call a technological demonstration mission. The fact that
PROBA2 is small and inexpensive for a space mission gives small companies and scientific institutes the opportunity to build up experience working on space hardware. It also opens the door for creativity. PROBA2 will be launched together with another satellite in a former intercontinental ballistic missile. The rockets have been repurposed for peaceful use as Rockot satellite carriers.
After PROBA2 separates from the launch rocket, it will enter an orbit around the Earth.
Space weather, like its more familiar counterpart closer to the ground, is the study of changing conditions in the region of outer space near the Earth. However, instead of studying wind and rain, space weather scientists measure electromagnetic radiation and the behavior of solar plasma.
The Sun Watcher with Active Pixels and Image Processing (SWAP) images the solar atmosphere, which is called the solar corona. This outer layer is almost invisible because it mainly radiates in ultraviolet (UV) and extreme ultraviolet (EUV). SWAP ʻtranslatesʼ the EUV radiation to a visible picture. One of the novel features of SWAP is its wide field of view of the Sun and the space around. The instrument can even track plasma clouds that erupt and escape. In fact, SWAP can detect these space weather phenomena on its own, with no input from scientists on the ground. This is one of the key goals of PROBA2, whose name stands for PRoject for OnBoard Autonomy. A powerful computer is integrated into the satellite platform and serves as the brain with which the satellite can make independent decisions, navigate, and conduct special pointing maneuvers. SWAP is capable of recognizing space weather events and responding to them.
The Lyman-alpha Radiometer (LYRA) measures the UV radiation that influences, for example, the production of ozone layer in Earthʼs atmosphere.
With aid of LYRA we will be able to measure the solar radiation and radiation peaks. With aid of SWAP, we will see the invisible radiation and flares in the solar atmosphere. Besides this, SWAP can also follow the solar plasma ejected from the Sun. Both the scientific research and space weather predictions will benefit from these solar instruments.

Scientist's Calculation.
According to the calculations made by expert scientists, it is anticipated that the Earth will face major destruction in 2012 end of the world. To make the matter even worse, their predictions tells that all human beings will die very shortly with 99% certainty.
An even weirder thing is that in the magnetic field of the Earth have been reported holes similar to ozone holes. It seems that the magnetic poles will soon reverse and this will affect our planet's capacity to defend against heavy objects that will attack us in the future. The planetary alignment could lead to a huge solar storm.
Also scientists think that the solar system has just entered in an interstellar node with a very powerful energy and electromagnetic activity. The entire solar system is reacting, trying to adapt to the new situation.
If the collision will be violent, the electromagnetic activity will unleash a huge quantity of energy in our direction. Comets and asteroids could suffer oscillations in their orbits and the risk of collisions will increase

What is going to happen in Dec 2012? what is going to happen after actual Polar Shift in Dec 2012?
Pole shift is one of the possible scenarios to the end of the world in 2012 which is supported by scientific proof..
1. The Rotation of the Earth is going to stop.
Prior to the shift, the Earth slows in its rotation, and actually stops. Thus, the Atlantic lava beds are gripped, facing the Sun, facing the approaching planet coming up from the South along the rift, and causing both Europe, the Americas, and Africa to be on the long day side of the Earth.
2. Atlantic Strech.
Atlantic has clearly been stretched and ripped in the past. During the week of rotation stoppage, however, this is extreme, so that the Atlantic Rift is under a great deal of tension
and the shorelines are drawn down along both sides of the Atlantic. Europe and Africa are continually pulled eastward, by the rotating core. Thus, the Earth moans in her agony, during this week.
3. Pacific Compression.
Along the Pacific Rim, plates are being pushed under the Americas, and creating distress in Indonesia as compression of the Pacific is already in process from prior pole shifts and sub ducting plates are inclined to continue this momentum.
·The Himalayas, driven high from sea bed material in the past, also show a point of drama, already scripted for India and Australia by past dramas which positioned these plates thus.
·Quakes all along the west coast of the Americas increase
·Volcanic activity in Japan and Indonesia become extreme.
·India shutters, jerking under the Himalayas in spurts, creating great panic among her peoples who are already fearing the worst with the long evening they are experiencing.
·Tidal waves are not yet a problem, as the waters normally pooling around the equator have equalized around the globe, more water at the pole and less in the equatorial regions.
4. Red Dust and Hail
The dusting with red dust should be considered a warning to take cover, under metal or sod roof structures, out of the wind. The shift cannot be more than a few hours away. The dusting with red dust occurs less than 24 hours, and most likely less than 12 hours. The tail sweep will then proceed from red dust to hail stones just ahead of the shift. A normal roof would protect from the hail stones, which will be like the hail experienced during violent windstorms, where hail of ice falls and ruins crop.
5. Pole Shift.
There is a great deal of tension that builds between the crust of the Earth and the core of the Earth during the week of rotation stoppage. This tension is released when the core of the Earth breaks with the crust, and moves. However, the core of the Earth drags the crust with it. The pole shift is therefore sudden, taking place in what seems to be minutes to humans involved in the drama, but which actually takes place during the better part of an hour. There are stages, between which the human spectators, in shock, are numb.
1) At first there is a vibration of sorts, a jiggling, as the crust separates in various places from the core.
2) Then there is a Slide, where the crust is dragged, over minutes, to a new location, along with the core.
3) During the slide, tidal waves move over the Earth along the coast lines, as the water is not attached and can move independently. The water tends to stay where it is, the crust moving under it, essentially.
4) When the core finds itself aligned, it churns about somewhat, settling, but the crust, more solid and in motion, proceeds on. This is in fact where mountain building and massive earthquakes occur, just as car crashes do their damage on the point of impact, when motion must stop.
6. Firestorms.
During the comet’s passage, there is such an onslaught to the Earth’s upper atmosphere that the available oxygen in places is completely consumed. Heated gas in the comet’s tail form petrol chemicals due to the flashes of lightning and intense heat due to passage over open volcanoes, and these petro carbons rain down, a sheet of flame falling to Earth. With the atmosphere scattered, these petrol chemicals descend close to the surface of the Earth before bursting into flame. A fire storm, killing all beneath it. All this has been reported in ancient times, as humans observed accompaniments to the cataclysms. This type of activity sets forests afire. Where vegetation regrows, from seeds and roots, many areas will nevertheless be denuded of vegetation for some time.
7. Flood Tide.
During a pole shift, the ocean as a whole is on the move because it stays behind while the crust moves, and thus rolls up on land onto the coastline being pulled under it. This is a flood tide, with the lip of the water being its highest point, rising like a silent tide endlessly on the rise, the wave rolling inland without a crashing back and forth, just a steady progressive inundation. To those at the mercy of such a flood tide, their first thought is to climb above the tide. Soon they are standing on the highest point they can reach, and still the water, flowing inland steadily, rises. Afloat on a boat or flotsam, they will be dragged inland with the flow until a reverse slosh begins, the water flowing back into its bed but in the nature of water during a slosh, overshooting this other side so that both sides of the ocean experience this flood tide, alternately, for some days until the momentum diminishes. When the flood tide recedes, those afloat are in danger of being dragged far out to sea with the flow, as the water will rush to its bed unevenly, more rapidly where it can recede the fastest.
Where tidal waves meet mountains, this can result in tidal bore up ravines. Where tidal waves flow inland, this results in a flood tide going hundreds of miles inland. Where the Atlantic widens and tears apart the North American continent along what is already her sea-way, there will be more places for the water to pool than water available, and this will cause a rushing toward this part of the globe by water gathered at the poles. There will be a temporary lowering of water in the Indian Ocean, which will draw water from where it has gathered at the South Pole. Where the Pacific shortens dramatically, the water in the Pacific will find its bowl suddenly smaller, and will rise along shores on both sides. Given the size of this ocean, and the ability of her waters to rush over low-lying areas in Central America or around Australia, tidal waves along the Pacific coast are not substantially larger than along other coasts.
8. Hurricane Winds.
During the shift, the atmosphere of the Earth does several things, all at once. It drags along with the Earth. It moves as a mass, pushing on air in other places. Thus, even in those places on the Earth which are not moving, during the shift, being pivot points, the air is turbulent.
It swirls, as circular motion in air masses is the response to conflicting
forces,as seen in the circular motion of tornadoes and hurricanes.
One should not assume a force of winds above what the world experiences today. Your hurricanes and typhoons represent what occurs when air masses attempt to move against each other, given their density and gravity attraction and inertia. These same factors are in place, are predominant, during the pole shift. Stay below the Earth’s surface, lie low, and tie down everything you wish to find when it’s over.
9. Earthquake.
Tearing of continents is less traumatic than it would seem to humans, who imagine the continents as one plate and think of how lumber resists being torn, metal bends and twists before tearing, and a rope of fibers resists while the fibers snap one by one. Continents are in fact an overlay of many plates, and faults are where most of the plates have fractured in the same place. The continents are attached because some of the plates have not fractured. Thus, ripping apart of continents is no more traumatic than sub ducting or slip-sliding. The land along the edges generally retains its altitude, as this was determined by the thickness of the plates, thus its boyancy on the sea of lava. Solid land is composed to a great degree from the lighter elements, which rose to the top during the early cooling of planet Earth, and thus formed the floating crust. Mountain Building occurs during rapid subduction of one plate under another. There is friction between the plates, so that crinkling of the upper plate occurs. This crinkling represents pressure and release, which can result in violent jerking and upheavals, sometimes snapping to create new cliffs or jutting rock. Those riding on the upper plate during these moment will be heaved skyward and dashed, with scarcely a safe place to cling to. Subduction can release pressure by pushing flakes of land that separate from lower stratas forward. This thrust can be sudden and projectile, with the rock flake then crashing down again. Pressure and release can also create crumpling land where such activity is not expected. Compressed rock can also drive horizontally, into nearby soil or space not occupied by anything as dense as itself. Thus, those in a valley can find rock shooting out of a hillside, or rock spears shooting under their feet, unexpectedly. Surviving the mountain building process while in the mountains is precarious, and not advised.
1. The Rotation of the Earth is going to stop.
Prior to the shift, the Earth slows in its rotation, and actually stops. Thus, the Atlantic lava beds are gripped, facing the Sun, facing the approaching planet coming up from the South along the rift, and causing both Europe, the Americas, and Africa to be on the long day side of the Earth.

The Mayan Calander
The Maya civilization populated a region around southern Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize and western Honduras, and flourished between the third and tenth centuries AD, but by 1200 AD their society had collapsed for reasons we can only guess at. The ancient Maya had been keeping historical records - using a script which mixed ideographic and phonetic elements. Some of their writing still exists on stelae (stone monuments) that recount civil events and record their knowledge. The civilization of Maya is one of biggest mysteries in our time and almost all of their written data and knowledge were destroyed by conquistadores.
The Maya calendar is actually a system of distinct calendars and almanacs used by the Maya civilization of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, and by some modern Maya communities in highland Guatemala.
