SO IS THE UPCOMING 'SUPERMOON' TO BLAME FOR THE RECENT SPATE OF NATURAL DISASTERS?

The Japanese tsunami comes just days after the Internet was awash with warnings that the movement of the moon will trigger tidal waves, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.

Some claim that on March 19 - a week tomorrow - the moon will be closer to Earth than at any time since 1992, just 221,567 miles away, and that its gravitational pull will bring chaos to Earth.

Astronomers have dismissed the claims, which centre on a phenomenon called the 'lunar perigee', as pure nonsense.

The moon's orbit around Earth is not a circle, but an eclipse. At its closest approach - the perigee - the moon appears brighter and larger in the sky. When it is furthest away - the apogee - it is smaller and dimmer.

A lunar perigee occurs once a month. However, next week's perigee coincides with a full moon - a combination of events that happen just once every two or three years.

Although it makes a good photo opportunity for astronomers, scientists say it has no impact on Earth.

Previous supermoons took place in 1955, 1974, 1992 and 2005 - all years that had extreme weather events, the supporters of the supermoon theory say.

The tsunami that killed hundreds of thousands of people in Indonesia happened two weeks before the January 2005 supermoon. And on Christmas Day 1974, Cyclone Tracy laid waste to Darwin, Australia.

But U.S. astrologer Richard Nolle, who coined the term 'supermoon' in 1979, is convinced that lunar perigees cause natural disasters on Earth.

He said the recent supermoon on February 18 helps explain the earthquake that struck New Zealand on February 22.

'Supermoons have a historical association with strong storms, very high tides, extreme tides and also earthquakes,' he told ABC radio this week.

'Supermoons are like eclipses. We have roughly five to six per year and so it can be very close to Earth but we don't have to have one at the maximum close approach to have a notable effect.'

Very interesting, Deano.

A quite plausible.

14:43 - The official Kyodo news agency is reporting that about 88,000 people are missing.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/japan/8375276/Tsunami-hits-Japan-after-8.8-magnitude-earthquake.html

Watch the video, holy crap. Is this what you were talking about OP?

God bless you Japan.

Waves of water and sludge now around 10km inland now. Scary stuff.

Reported around 300 bodies found with thousands more missing.

At least their nuclear reactors haven't, as of yet, leaked any material.

Edit: Also BBC just said that the number of missing has backed away from 88,000 to 500.

The tsunami hit Hawaii and is expected to do little damage there, and was expected to hit Vancouver/western coast of NA about an hour ago, though I havent seen any reports about it

I ask myself that normally every time there is a major disaster, as the media always seems to hype it as "omg, this is the most terrible thing ever, nothing like normal weather patterns", but it seems totally normal to get 1-3 of them a year.

Like, think about the Red River floods in the 90s, hit a bunch of US states and Canada (Manitoba), and was sort of national news. I can't help but think it would have been a major crisis in the modern media cycle, just because we are all so much more connected with cameras and the internet, and the media consuming public have a taste for these type of interest stories (though, it is entirely cynical, for instance, Haiti, a little bit of Western superiority thrown in too ).

Long answer, I don't know, but I tend to think it is normal, just more that the internet et al. have brought issues that used to be local to a global audience, who eats it up like candy

I think the disasters are getting worse over the years, 2012 is coming!!!!!

Damn, cooling systems at a nuclear plant failed there.....

how bad is the damage with the nuke plant?

DAMN

http://edition.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/asiapcf/03/11/japan.quake/index.html?hpt=T1

From the link I posted:

Radioactive material may have leaked from an atomic power plant in northeast Japan, a major electric company said Saturday, according to a news agency report.

Citing the Tokyo Electric Power Co., Japan's Kyodo News Agency said that radioactive substances may have seeped out of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors, about 160 miles (260 kilometers) north of Tokyo.

And cooling problems appeared to have spread to another of the Tokyo Electric Power Company's nuclear plants.
Tsunami waters engulf town
Witness: Japan quake unlike any before
Refinery ablaze after quake
undefinedMoment of the Japan quake

Kyodo reported the power company alerted authorities that the cooling system at three units of the Fukushima Daini plant -- which is distinct from the Fukushima Daiichi reactors -- also failed. That prompted Japanese authorities to add that plant to its emergency list, along with the Fukushima Daiichi plant, Kyodo said.

The agency also reported Saturday that the same agency ordered the power company to release a valve in the Fukushima Daiichi plant's "No. 1" building, to relieve growing pressure.

Citing Japan's nuclear safety agency, Kyodo said radiation levels were 1,000 times above normal in the the control room of the facility's "No. 1."

Prime Minister Kan told reporters he would board a helicopter to inspect the plant and the rest of the affected region from a helicopter.

The government had ordered the evacuation of residents nearest the plant as efforts to keep it cool after it was shut were initially hampered.

Bad but not that bad...

which is bad but also good to a certain extant

Bad but not that bad? Watch the vids, dude.

One of my nephews is currently stationed in HI; he's a US Army E.O.D. Officer at the base on Oahu. He was among the govt. officials who was clearing out the streets and beaches at midnight with a bullhorn, warning of the impending tsunami. He was telling me that there were some beach partiers who actually had the nerve to give attutide to him and the other cops/soldiers for being buzzkills. Would their dumbasses rather be ripped to shreds by the waves? Anyways, its some pretty scary stuff.

i was referring to the radiation leakage.

not to sound like a d#$k but my definition of bad is different from the average person, not to say that it isnt a tragedy. it's just something comparatively to casualties and deaths from other parts of the world during other disasters and war have been more catastrophic than what i am seeing here.

I feel for the poor people caught up in this.

He's not on a vendetta to troll the interwebz: he's pretty damn chill.

Yeah, I got a good laugh out of that pic. I, personally, think it's too soon to make jokes about it...but I am in NO way offended or upset about the jokes I'm seeing all over the place about the situation.

I don't think you need to grow up...but I don't think either of you does. He made a valid point that your comparison was apples to oranges. That's obvious. A better comparison would have been, "The Japanese are blaming the US for the Japanese quakes because the Haiti quakes were obviously done by an US quake weapon."

Same type of sarcasm, but it's apples to apples, at least. I'm just like you in that it's hard for me to admit where I've made a fault, but if it's obvious, just admit it and move on. You can't win them all, man.

And, yeah, Mindset is right: we should try to get back on topic or we'll get in trouble. I recomend taking your problems with Mindset to PMs.

"Nuclear accident risk 4 out of 7."

Two statements from the live coverage from BBC. Hopefully nothing happens but it seems that a nuclear meltdown is a very possible threat.

Its interesting that people focus on the damaged nuclear reactors and not the other power stations. What happened to those ones? I know that the oil refineries are letting out flames the size of skyscrapers.

I know one was burning yesterday, the fire was "out of control" but I haven't heard about any others, except that all those on the West coast of Japan are operating fine.

Shocking pictures of destruction of towns in Japan, including Minamisanriku, where half the population of the town are missing.
