NASA Confirms Earth Will Experience 15 Days Of Complete Darkness in November 2015
WASHINGTON, D.C. (NEWSWATCH33) – NASA has
confirmed that the Earth will experience 15 days of total darkness
between November 15 and November 29, 2015. The event, according to NASA,
hasn’t occurred in over 1 Million years.
Astronomers from NASA have indicated that the world will remain in
complete darkness starting on Sunday, November 15, 2015 at 3 a.m. and
will end on Monday, November 30, 2015 at 4:15 p.m. According to
officials, the ” November Black Out” event will be caused by another
astronomical event between Venus and Jupiter.Charles Bolden, who was appointed to head of NASA by President Obama, issued a 1000 page document explaining the event to the White House.
According to the report, on October 26,
2015, Venus and Jupiter will engage in a close parallelism, only being
separated by 1 degree.
Venus will pass to the southwest of Jupiter, causing Venus to shine
10 times brighter than Jupiter. The light from Venus will heat up the
gases on Jupiter causing a reaction.
The gaseous reaction will release an
unprecedented amount of Hydrogen into Space. The Hydrogen gas will make
contact with Earth’s sun at approximately 2:50 a.m. The amass amount of
Hydrogen making contact with the sun will cause a massive explosion on
the Sun’s surface.
The explosions will cause the Sun’s surface temperature to increase to 9,000 degrees Kelvin in an instant.
The sun will then attempt to cease the
explosions by emitting heat from its core. The heat will cause the Sun
to dim to a bluish color. Once the sun reaches the bluish color, it will
take approximately 14 days to restore its normal surface temperature,
returning its normal color to the Red Giant.
While the sun is cooling the surface, the light from the sun will be
much dimmer. Because it takes anywhere from 7 to 8 and a half minutes
depending on the Earth’s rotation for light from the sun to hit Earth,
people will not know the event has happened until 2:58 a.m. on November
15th.Some areas of the world may experience brief moments of light for 7 to 8 minutes, but the Earth will then go back to complete darkness until the Sun’s surface temperature has been restored.
Bolden held a conference with the Obama
Administration to discuss further details of the “Black Out” event.
According to Bolden, “We do not expect any major effects from the Black
Out event. The only effect this event will have on Earth is an increase
of 6 to 8 degrees in temperature. The polar cap will not be majorly
affected by this. No one should worry much. This event would be similar
to what Alaskans experience in the winter.”
Bolden further added, “The only other effect it will have is everyone will get to have a true Black Friday after Thanksgiving.With 15 days of darkness ahead, one can only imagine what will happen on Earth. Despite NASA’s attempt to keep the public calm regarding the black out, with that many days of darkness, something is bound to happen. What will you do during the 15 Days of Darkness?
