THE US BIOWARFARE PROJECT WHICH CAUSED THE COVID-19 DEBACLE – PART 7 - Paula Jardine
https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/the-us-biowarfare-project-which-caused-the-covid-19-debacle-part-7/

"On October 17, 2014, the US government took action, ordered a review and grounded its biodefence programme by imposing a moratorium on research which ‘could be reasonably anticipated to confer attributes to influenza, MERS, or SARS viruses such that the resulting virus has enhanced pathogenicity and/or transmissibility (via the respiratory route) in mammals’.

This had immediate impacton the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) where, under the supervision of Dr Ralph Baric, most of the SARS and MERS gain-of-function research was conducted. The paper published under his and other names in 2015 arguing that‘a SARS-like cluster of circulating bat coronaviruses shows potential for human emergence’ was presumably based on research conducted before the moratorium. Its funding had come from the USAID PREDICT programme via the EcoHealth Alliance whose website home page promotes pandemic fear porn: ‘Who stands between you and the next pandemic?’ The 2015 paper compared the potential of SARS, MERS and a bat coronavirus sample held by the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) called WIV1 to cause an epidemic disease in humans and evaluated the potential of vaccines and monoclonal antibodies as countermeasures. Shi Zhengli, the WIV researcher who is known as the ‘bat lady’, provided the UNC-CH researchers with the genetic sequence for WIV1 and is a co-author on the paper. Baric was later to write the gain-of-function section of the notorious EcoHealth Alliance 2018 funding proposal DEFUSE to make an aerosolised coronavirus vaccine for bats, which was rejected by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency DARPA.

DARPA officer Major Joseph Murphy, who reviewed the files on the DEFUSE proposal, concluded in an August 2021 memo that ‘SARS-CoV-2 is an American-created recombinant bat vaccine or its precursor virus’ (my italics). He wrote ‘Americans are creative, if imprudent, and technologically confident enough to try it,’ and blamed the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Dr Anthony Fauci directly. Murphy said the mRNA vaccines ‘work poorly because they are synthetic replications of the already-synthetic SARS-CoV-WIV spike proteins’. His concluding paragraph reads: ‘The massive, “Manhattan Project”-level suppression of information by the government and the Trusted News Initiative indicates that it would be covered up if something bad happened.’ The Trusted News Initiative was founded by the UK’s very own Ministry of Truth, the BBC. DARPA has confirmed to Trialsite News that Murphy’s memo was genuine (personal communication).

The intent of the moratorium was to pause ‘research that improves the ability of a pathogen to cause disease’; pathogenicity and transmissibility studies of both SARS and MERS coronaviruses, of which MERS was considered to be the more dangerous, were grounded. Clinical trials in humans of coronavirus vaccines which had previously been found to cause pathological changes in the lungs and enhance respiratory disease were also paused. A throwaway sentence in a report published by CEPI, the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, ‘Since concerns over SARS-related pathology led to a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clinical hold on [coronavirus] vaccine studies [in people], investigation of MERS-CoV vaccine candidates to induce virus-enhancing antibodies and harmful immune response in [pre-clinical] animal models could be informative before human clinical trials are initiated’, reveals a determination to carry on with MERS animal studies in anticipation of clinical trials being permitted in future. MERS was on the DARPA priority list for vaccine development but SARS wasn’t.

"The biodefence renegades soldiered on undercover with their mission to develop coronavirus vaccines. This explains the secrecy associated with Moderna’s mRNA-MERS coronavirus vaccine project. (As of June 2023, there have been only 2,605 PCR test-confirmed MERS cases). It made little commercial sense for the fledgling company with no licensed products to be developing a vaccine with a limited commercial market while there was a moratorium on trials. However Moderna’s August 2022 patent infringement lawsuit against Pfizer reveals that Moderna’s infectious disease division began developing a MERS vaccine in 2015 for Merck (the company is known as MSD outside North America) which had entered into a joint venture with Moderna to develop mRNA vaccines against infectious diseases. Moderna was leveraging Merck’s reputation and credibility as a long-established vaccine developer and manufacturer in bringing Moderna’s mRNA vaccines to market under this joint venture. The original intention was for Merck exclusively to commercialise them for Moderna.

In January 2016, during the FDA’s moratorium on clinical trials, Stephane Bancel, Moderna’s CEO, sought an amendment to the Merck Master Collaboration Agreement (MCA). Merck agreed to substitute VZV (varicella zoster virus which causes shingles) for a substance which is redacted in the paperwork. Whether this was related to the unexpected resignation of Moderna’s Chief Scientific Officer, Joseph Bolen, in charge of the product development pipeline, for undisclosed reasons a few months before, we don’t know. Six months later Merck sought and obtained another amendment allowing it to do due diligence on Moderna’s mRNA vaccines by nominating new candidates and running the trials themselves, instead of paying Moderna to do it for them.

In October 2016, Moderna started building a 200,000 sq ft factory in Norwood, Massachusetts.

At its stock market debut in December 2018 Moderna said it was developing two vaccine candidates for Merck, mRNA-1278 (which it claims was a shingles vaccine) and mRNA-1777, a vaccine for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). (The first attempt to develop RSV vaccines in the 1960s had been disastrous and none was ever successfully licensed. The children vaccinated in the clinical trials suffered from enhanced respiratory disease and many died. The same problem of vaccine-enhanced disease was later found in animal trials of SARS and MERS vaccines.)

The RSV vaccine developed by Moderna for Merck used a stabilised protein design developed by Dr Barney Graham of the US NIAID Vaccine Research Centre. Graham believed it solved the vaccine-enhanced disease problem, and the same design approach was used in all the Operation Warp Speed financed Covid-19 vaccines. The RSV vaccine mRNA-1777 went into clinical trials in Australia at the start of 2018. In effect it was a forerunner of the MERS candidate (and ultimately the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine) enabling Moderna to test the design and dosing in humans. Moderna’s December 2018 prospectus for its stock market launch stated: ‘Merck has initiated plans for a Phase 2a trial, for which Merck will be the sponsor. In addition, we are working with Merck to identify and advance improvements to the RSV vaccine.’ Evidently, Merck began its due diligence on the Moderna mRNA platform early...

...The US government gain-of-function moratorium lasted a little over three years. Dr Francis Collins, the Director of the NIH, announced the resumption of research on December 19, 2017, stating it was important ‘in helping us identify, understand, and develop strategies and effective countermeasures against rapidly evolving pathogens that pose a threat to public health’.

What he didn’t admit was that during the moratorium his institute, along with the UC Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and the US military medical countermeasure research programmes, had busied themselves finding ways around the FDA clinical hold by off-shoring development projects for MERS vaccines and synthetic antibody therapeutics."

🦠ANTIBODY DEPENDENT ENHANCEMENT (ADE):

An URGENT health update concerning the potential catastrophic reaction that could be caused by giving Covid vaccinated children the live flu nasal spray - Please read and share widely

Those who have received coronavirus vaccines, could be at risk of a much more severe reaction to live viruses than their unvaccinated counterparts.

"A 2021 study published in the National Library of Medicine concluded:

The specific and significant COVID-19 risk of ADE should have been and should be prominently and independently disclosed to research subjects currently in vaccine trials, as well as those being recruited for the trials and future patients after vaccine approval, in order to meet the medical ethics standard of patient comprehension for informed consent.

This is especially concerning when one considers that secondary school students - many of whom received the COVID-19 vaccines via their schools - are this year being offered, for the first time ever, the flu nasal spray, which contains a variety of live viruses, including a new B-strain which has never been added to the children's nasal spray before.

It is therefore feasible to believe that some of these children's immune systems could dramatically overreact to these viruses as a result of the ADE they may have developed from their Covid vaccines.

ADE is a disorder of the immune system, which effectively renders a person immunodeficient, in that their immune system is not functioning in the normal or optimal way. It is already official medical advice not to give the flu nasal spray to immunodeficient children.

To quote from the University of Oxford:

The nasal flu spray should not be given to anyone who is severely immunodeficient (so that their immune system cannot control viral infections in the normal way)... The resource continues:
"Children who have been vaccinated with the nasal spray should avoid close contact with people who have very severely weakened immune systems (for example, bone marrow transplant patients requiring isolation in a protective environment) for about two weeks following vaccination. If it is not possible for a child to avoid contact with someone who is severely immunosuppressed (for example, because they live in the same house), the child should not receive the nasal flu vaccine.

This means that even children who do not receive the nasal flu vaccine, could be at risk from others in close quarters (such as schoolmates) who do.

There is no data at all to establish that it is safe to give the flu nasal spray to children who have received COVID-19 vaccinations, children who may have developed ADE, and therefore could have a catastrophic reaction to the live viruses contained within the flu spray.

These reactions could be labelled by the government - not as vaccine reactions - but as evidence of "a new variant" that another lockdown is required to contain."

The Planetary Theory of Solar Activity Variability: A Review

'Although planetary tidal forces are weak, we review a number of mechanisms that could explain how the solar structure and the solar dynamo could get tuned to the planetary motions.'

"In conclusion, many empirical evidences suggest that planetary oscillations should be able to modulate the solar activity and even the Earth’s climate, although several open physical issues remain open. These results stress the importance of identifying the relevant planetary harmonics, the solar activity cycles and the climate oscillations as phenomena that, in many cases, are interconnected. This approach could be useful to predict both solar and climate variability using harmonic constituent models as it is currently done for oceanic tides. We think that the theory of a planetary modulation of solar activity should be further developed because no clear alternative theory exists to date capable to explain the observed planetary-solar interconnected periodicities."

The Planetary Theory of Solar Activity Variability: A Review

Nicola Scafetta, Department of Earth Sciences, Environment and Georesources, Complesso Universitario di Monte S. Angelo, University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy

"Reviewing the many planetary harmonics and the orbital invariant inequalities that characterize the planetary motions of the solar system from the monthly to the millennial time scales, we show that they are not randomly distributed but clearly tend to cluster around some specific values that also match those of the main solar activity cycles. In some cases, planetary models have even been able to predict the time-phase of the solar oscillations including the Schwabe 11-year sunspot cycle. We also stress that solar models based on the hypothesis that solar activity is regulated by its internal dynamics alone have never been able to reproduce the variety of the observed cycles. Although planetary tidal forces are weak, we review a number of mechanisms that could explain how the solar structure and the solar dynamo could get tuned to the planetary motions. In particular, we discuss how the effects of the weak tidal forces could be significantly amplified in the solar core by an induced increase in the H-burning. Mechanisms modulating the electromagnetic and gravitational large-scale structure of the planetary system are also discussed.

1 Introduction
Since antiquity, the movements of the planets of the solar system have attracted the attention of astronomers and philosophers such as Pythagoras and Kepler because the orbital periods appeared to be related to each other by simple harmonic proportions, resonances, and/or commensurabilities (ter Haar, 1948; Stephenson, 1974). Such a philosophical concept is known as the “Music of the Spheres” or the “Harmony of the Worlds” (Godwin, 1992; Scafetta, 2014a). This property is rather common for many orbital systems (Moons and Morbidelli, 1995; Scafetta, 2014a; Aschwanden, 2018; Agol et al., 2021). Bank and Scafetta (2022) improved the Geddes and King-Hele equations describing the mirror symmetries among the orbital radii of the planets (Geddes and King-Hele, 1983) and discovered their ratios obey the following scaling-mirror symmetry relation where a planet are the semi-major axes of the orbits of the relative planets: Eris (Er), Pluto (Pl), Neptune (Ne), Uranus (Ur), Saturn (Sa), Jupiter (Ju), Mars (Ma), Earth (Ea), Venus (Ve), Mercury (Me), Vulcanoid asteroid belt (Vu), and the scattered zone surrounding the Sun (Sz). The ratio 9/8 is, musically speaking, a whole tone known as the Pythagorean epogdoon. The deviations of Eq. 1 from the actual orbital planetary ratios are within 1%.

Another intriguing aspect regarding the synchronization of the solar system is the fact that many planetary harmonics are found spectrally coherent with the solar activity cycles (e.g.: Scafetta, 2012a, 2020, and many others). The precise physical origin of solar cycles is still poorly known and dynamo models are debated, but recent literature has strengthened the hypothesis of a correlation with planetary harmonics. Actually, a few years after the discovery of the 11-year sunspot cycle, Wolf (1859) himself conjectured that “the variations of spot-frequency depend on the influences of Venus, Earth, Jupiter, and Saturn.” Dicke (1978) noted that the sunspot cycle shows no statistical indication of being randomly generated but rather of being synchronized by a chronometer hidden deep in the Sun.

Solar activity is characterized by several cycles like the Schwabe 11-year sunspot cycle (Schwabe, 1843), the Hale solar magnetic 22-year cycle (Hale, 1908), the Gleissberg cycle (∼85 years), the Jose cycle (∼178 years), the Suess-de Vries cycle (∼208 years), the Eddy cycle (∼1000 years), and the Bray-Hallstatt cycle (∼2300 years) (McCracken et al., 2001, 2013; Abreu et al., 2012; Scafetta, 2016).
❤19👍8🤔1
Shorter cycles are easily detected in total solar irradiance (TSI) and sunspot records, while the longer ones are detected in long-term geophysical records like the cosmogenic radionuclide ones (14C and 10Be) and in climate records (Neff et al., 2001; Steinhilber et al., 2009). Planetary cycles have also been found in aurora records (Scafetta, 2012c; Scafetta and Willson, 2013a).

Due to the evident high synchronization of planetary motions, it is worthwhile investigating the possibility that orbital frequencies could tune solar variability as well. However, although Jupiter appears to play the main role in organizing the solar system (Bank and Scafetta, 2022), its orbital period (∼11.86 years) is too long to fit the Schwabe 11-year solar cycle. Thus, any possible planetary mechanism able to create this solar modulation must involve a combination of more planets. We will see that the only frequencies that could be involved in the process are the orbital periods, the synodical periods, and their beats and harmonics.

In the following sections, we review the planetary theory of solar variability and show how it is today supported by many empirical and theoretical evidences at multiple timescales. We show that appropriate planetary harmonic models correlate with the 11-year solar cycle, the secular and millennial cycles, as well as with several other major oscillations observed in solar activity, and even with the occasional occurrences of solar flares. The physics behind these results is not yet fully understood, but a number of working hypotheses will be herein briefly discussed...

[..Read link at the bottom for main journal article..]

...11 Conclusion
Many empirical evidences suggest that planetary systems can self-organize in synchronized structures although some of the physical mechanisms involved are still debated.

We have shown that the high synchronization of our own planetary system is nicely revealed by the fact that the ratios of the orbital radii of adjacent planets, when raised to the 2/3rd power, express the simple ratios found in harmonic musical consonances while those of the mirrored ones follow the simple, elegant, and highly precise scaling-mirror symmetry Eq. 1 (Bank and Scafetta, 2022).

The solar system is made of synchronized coupled oscillators because it is characterized by a set of frequencies that are linked to each other by the harmonic Eq. 3, which are easily detected in the solar wobbling. Thus, it is then reasonable to hypothesize that the solar activity could be also tuned to planetary frequencies.

We corroborated this hypothesis by reviewing the many planetary harmonics and orbital invariant inequalities that characterize the planetary motions and observing that often their frequencies correspond to those of solar variability.

It may be objected that, since the identified planetary frequencies are so numerous, it could be easy to occasionally find that some of them roughly correspond to those of the solar cycles. However, the fact is that the planetary frequencies of the solar system, from the monthly to the millennial time scales, are not randomly distributed but tend to cluster around some specific values that quite well match those of the main solar activity cycles.

Thus, it is rather unlikely that the results shown in Figures 2–6 are just occasional. In some cases, our proposed planetary models have even been able to predict the time-phase of the solar oscillations like that of the Schwabe 11-year sunspot cycle throughout the last three centuries, as well as those of the secular and millennial modulations throughout the Holocene. The two main planetary models that could explain the Schwabe 11-year cycle and its secular and millennial variation involve the planets Venus, Earth, Jupiter and Saturn, as it was initially suggested by Wolf (1859). We further suggest that the Venus-Earth-Jupiter model and the Jupiter-Saturn model could be working complementary to each other.

The alternative hypothesis that the solar activity is regulated by an unforced internal dynamics alone (i.e. by an externally unperturbed solar dynamo) has never been able to reproduce the variety of the observed oscillations. In fact, standard MHD dynamo models are not self-consistent and do not even directly explain the well-known 11-year solar cycle nor they are able to predict its timing without assuming a number of calibrated parameters (Tobias, 2002; Jiang et al., 2007).

There have been several objections to a planetary theory of solar variability. For example, Smythe and Eddy (1977) claimed that planetary cycles and conjunctions could not predict the timing of grand solar minima like the Maunder Minimum of the 17th century. However, Scafetta (2012a) developed a solar-planetary model able to predict all the grand solar maxima and minima of the last millennium (Figure 4).

Other authors reasonably claimed that planetary gravitational tides are too weak to modulate solar activity (Charbonneau, 2002; de Jager and Versteegh, 2005; Charbonneau, 2022); yet, several empirical evidences support the importance of their role (Wolff and Patrone, 2010; Abreu et al., 2012; Scafetta, 2012b; Stefani et al., 2016, 2019). Stefani et al. (2016, 2021) proposed that the Sun could be at least synchronized by the tides of Venus, Earth and Jupiter, producing an 11.07-year cycle that reasonably matches the Schwabe cycle. Longer cycles could be produced by a dynamo excited by angular momentum transfer from Jupiter and Saturn. Instead, Scafetta (2012b) proposed that, in the solar core, the effects of the weak tidal forces could be amplified one million times or more due to an induced increase in the H-burning, thus providing a sufficiently strong forcing to synchronize and modulate the solar dynamo with planetary harmonics at multiple time scales.

Objections to the latter hypothesis, based on the slow light propagation inside the radiative zone according to the Kelvin–Helmholtz timescale (Mitalas and Sills, 1992; Stix, 2003), could be probably solved. In fact, tidal forces are believed to favor the onset of g-waves moving back and forth throughout the radiative region of the Sun (Barker and Ogilvie, 2010; Ahuir et al., 2021). Thus, g-waves themselves could be amplified and modulated in the core by the tidally induced H-burning enhancement (Scafetta, 2012b). Then, both tidal torques and g-waves could cyclically affect the tachocline region at the bottom of the convective zone and synchronize the solar dynamo.

Alternatively, planetary alignments can also modify the large-scale electromagnetic and gravitational structure of the planetary system altering the space weather in the solar system. For example, in coincidence of planetary alignments, an increase of solar flares has been observed (Hung, 2007; Bertolucci et al., 2017; Petrakou, 2021). The solar wobbling, which reflects the motion of the barycenter of the planets, changing from more regular to more chaotic trajectories, correlates well with some long climate cycles like the Bray-Hallstatt cycle (2100–2500 years) (Charvátová, 2000; Charvátová and Hejda, 2014; Scafetta et al., 2016). Finally, Scafetta et al. (2020) showed that the infalling meteorite flux on the Earth presents a 60-year oscillation coherent with the variation of the eccentricity of Jupiter’s orbit induced by Saturn. The falling flux of meteorites and interplanetary dust would then contribute to modulate cloud formation.

In conclusion, many empirical evidences suggest that planetary oscillations should be able to modulate the solar activity and even the Earth’s climate, although several open physical issues remain open. These results stress the importance of identifying the relevant planetary harmonics, the solar activity cycles and the climate oscillations as phenomena that, in many cases, are interconnected. This approach could be useful to predict both solar and climate variability using harmonic constituent models as it is currently done for oceanic tides. We think that the theory of a planetary modulation of solar activity should be further developed because no clear alternative theory exists to date capable to explain the observed planetary-solar interconnected periodicities."

"Orbital systems are often self-organized and/or characterized by harmonic relations. Inspired by music theory, we rewrite the Geddes and King-Hele (QJRAS, 24, 10–13, 1983) equations for mirror symmetries among the distances of the planets of the Solar System in an elegant and compact form by using the 2/3rd power of the ratios of the semi-major axis lengths of two neighboring planets (eight pairs, including the belt of the asteroids). This metric suggests that the Solar System could be characterized by a scaling and mirror-like structure relative to the asteroid belt that relates together the terrestrial and Jovian planets. These relations are based on a 9/8 ratio multiplied by powers of 2, which correspond musically to the interval of the Pythagorean epogdoon (a Major Second) and its addition with one or more octaves. Extensions of the same model are discussed and found compatible also with the still hypothetical vulcanoid asteroids versus the transneptunian objects. The found relation also suggests that the planetary self-organization of our system could be generated by the 3:1 and 7:3 resonances of Jupiter, which are already known to have shaped the asteroid belt. The proposed model predicts the main Kirkwood asteroid gaps and the ratio among the planetary orbital parameters with a 99% accuracy, which is three times better than an alternative, recently proposed harmonic-resonance model for the Solar System. Furthermore, the ratios of neighboring planetary pairs correspond to four musical “consonances” having frequency ratios of 5/4 (Major Third), 4/3 (Perfect Fourth), 3/2 (Perfect Fifth) and 8/5 (Minor Sixth); the probability of obtaining this result randomly has a p < 0.001. Musical consonances are “pleasing” tones that harmoniously interrelate when sounded together, which suggests that the orbits of the planets of our Solar System could form some kind of gravitationally optimized and coordinated structure. Physical modeling indicates that energy non-conserving perturbations could drive a planetary system into a self-organized periodic state with characteristics vaguely similar of those found in our Solar System. However, our specific finding suggests that the planetary organization of our Solar System could be rather peculiar and based on more complex and unknown dynamical structures.

Introduction
Since ancient times the stability of the Solar System, its regularities, and the movements of its planets have attracted the attention of astronomers and philosophers because their orbital revolutions appeared to be related by simple proportions (ter Haar, 1948; Stephenson, 1974; Godwin, 1992). This observation yielded the understanding that solar and lunar systems could be characterized by harmonic resonances, which are usually the result of self-organizing gravitational or tidal processes yielding to long-term stable planet and Moon orbits (Moons and Morbidelli, 1995; Aschwanden, 2018). In fact, planetary circular orbits are dynamically unstable, unless their mutual orbital periods fall into harmonic whole number ratios called “orbital commensurabilities” (Peale, 1976; McFadden et al., 1999; Pakter and Levin, 2018)...
❤17👍3
...The philosophical concept of orbital resonance is known as “Musica Universalis” or “Music of the Spheres” or “Harmony of the Spheres”, and was first developed in the sixth century BC by Pythagoras of Samos (570–495 BC) and his followers (Stephenson, 1974; Godwin, 1992; Rogers, 2016), who related planetary periods with the principles of musical harmony. The philosopher noted that the pitch of a musical note is in inverse proportion to the length of the string that produces it, and that intervals between harmonious sound frequencies form simple numerical ratios. Furthermore, Pythagoras proposed that the bodies of the Solar System —including the Sun, the Moon and the planets— all emit a unique hum based on their orbital revolution. According to Philolaus (470—385 BC), the planetary harmonics were characterized by four basic musical intervals: 2:1 (octave), 3:2 (fifth), 4:3 (fourth) and 1:1 (unison).

In fact, the correspondence between whole number ratios in orbital resonances and music theory was further developed by Johannes Kepler (1571–1630) in Harmonices Mundi (The Harmony of the World, 1619), in which he related musical tones with the periods, distances and angular velocities of the planets cf. (Rogers, 2016). Very likely, Kepler’s conception of the “Music of the Worlds” reflected the polyphony of his day as developed by composers such as Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (1525–1594).

For example, he noted that, relative to the Sun, the angular speed of the Earth varies by a semitone (a ratio of 16:15), between aphelion and perihelion. Similar musical relations were found for the other planets as well so that Kepler hypothesized the existence of a celestial choir made up of a tenor (Mars), two basses (Saturn and Jupiter), a soprano (Mercury), and two altos (Venus and Earth). These inquiries brought forth his discovery of the “third law of planetary motion”. We recall that Kepler’s first and second law of planetary motions were proposed 10 years earlier in Astronomia Nova (1,609). Kepler’s laws were empirically based and published almost 100 years before Newton proposed the gravitational law that provided their physical basis.

An interesting feature of the Solar System is that it is made of four inner terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars) and four outer gas-giant planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) divided by the asteroid belt plus a large number of asteroids and comets: see the orbital map of the Solar System, art-work by Lutz (2019). Thus, we focused on the mirror symmetries among the distances of the planets found by Geddes and King-Hele (1983), which are today better known only in the popular scientific literature (Martineau, 2002).

Conclusion
An interesting feature of the Solar System is its specular-reflection-like architecture which is made of four inner terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars) and four outer gas-giant planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) divided by the asteroid belt. No other exoplanetary system similar to our has been discovered yet.

We have shown that the Geddes–King-Hele equations for mirror symmetries among the distances of the planets, when raised to the 2/3rd power, express values that are very close to the simple ratios found in the harmonic consonances of the 12-TET and 12-TJI tuning systems used in Classical and Western music. This result contradicts the brief critique of Abhyankar (1983) that there is “nothing particularly musical” in such equations. Of course, herein, we intend for the word “musical” to relate to the presence of the ratios found in Classical tuning systems which have specific mathematical properties...
❤14👍10🤔2
..In conclusion, the ratios of the orbital radii of adjacent planets of our Solar System, when raised to the 2/3rd power, express the simple ratios found in harmonic musical consonances and can be expressed by a simple, elegant, and highly precise equation that reveals scaling and mirror-like symmetries of its planetary orbital distribution relative to the asteroid belt, whose inner structure is also predicted by the same model depicted in Figure 7. Equations (25) and (26) suggest that the orbital scaling-mirror symmetries of the Solar System could be expressed by the Pythagorean epogdoon (the tone ratio 9/8) and its addition with up to six octaves. Furthermore, the ratio 9/8 is closely related to the 3:1 and 7:3 resonances of Jupiter that shape the asteroid belt (Eq. (24)), which indicates the primary role played by Jupiter in organizing the planetary orbits of the Solar System.

The mathematical correlation which we presented between idealized musical ratios and planetary data is very similar to what Johannes Kepler was seeking when he published his Harmonices Mundi in 1619. Our result further indicates that the orbital movements of the major bodies of the Solar System are likely highly organized. In this regard, we would also like to point out that aesthetic perception of patterns in our surroundings is a fundamental dimension of the human culture, and it has been crucial in the development of a scientific understanding of the natural world. Thus, our empirical model could lead to the future discovery of important dynamical structures of orbital systems, which today are still unknown. The final paragraph of Geddes and King-Hele’s original 1983 paper is worth quoting: “The significance of the many near-equalities is very difficult to assess. The hard-boiled may dismiss them as mere playing with numbers; but those with eyes to see and ears to hear may find traces of “something far more deeply interfused” in the fact that the average interval between the musical notes emerges as the only numerical constant required—a result that would surely have pleased Kepler.”

Jovian Planets and Lunar Nodal Cycles in the Earth’s Climate Variability

"The primary causes of the identified multidecadal temperature variation is the stationary orbital cycles from the Jovian planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) and the 18.6-year lunar nodal cycle from the Earth’s axis nutation."

"Upcoming events have a computed modern temperature maximum in 2025 and a deep minimum in 2070. Interference between solar-forced temperature cycles of 333,2142, and 4,450 years and a lunar-forced temperature cycle of 445 years indicates that “The Little Ice Age” covers a total period of 820 years from 1330 to 2150 A.D. and an upcoming temporary cold climate period from 2070 to 2150."

"Records have shown correlation between solar variations and global temperatures (Suess 1980). Cycles featuring solar variations, as identified from Greenland ice cores, have stimulated a discussion about the possible planetary modulation of solar irradiation in the solar system. Jose (1965) identified a correlation among planets, i.e., solar barycenter motion with a 179-year cycle. Zhenqiu and Zhisen (1980) analyzed planetary conjunctions and climate in China and estimated minimum temperatures for the years 1982, 2163 and 2344 A.D. Numerous other investigations have elucidated the relationships among planetary cycles, solar irradiance, and climate variations (Fairbridge and Sanders, 1987; Hoyt and Schatten 1993; Satterley, A. K. 1996; Charvátová 2000; Liu et al., 2011; Abreu et al., 2012; Scafetta 2012, 2016; McCracken et al., 2014; Scafetta et al., 2016: Steinhilber and Beer (2013)) studied solar irradiance over a cycle of 9400 years and identified long cycles of 150, 208, 350, 500, 1000, 1450, and 2200 years; the authors also computed a Dalton-type minimum at 2100 A.D. Wavelet spectrum analyses of time series of the TSI, sunspots and solar position have revealed close relations among the TSI variation, solar position oscillation and elliptical orbits of the Jovian planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) (Yndestad and Solheim 2017).

The oscillation of gravitational forces within the Earth-Moon-Sun system introduces a spectrum of tides that influence the redistribution of heat in the large-scale oceanic thermohaline system. Tidal forcing in the ocean’s thermohaline system introduces vertical temperature mixing in the oceans, which influences sea surface temperatures and atmospheric climate. Studies have revealed that approximately 1 TW (25–30%) of the total dissipation of energy occurs in the deep oceans (Egbert and Ray 2000).

The estimated mixing energy required to maintain large-scale thermohaline circulation is approximately 2 TW. Therefore, half of this amount could be provided by tides.

The relationship between the temperature variations of the Atlantic Ocean and lunar tides has been discussed for decades. In 1907, Otto Pettersson studied the relationship between herring catches and tides along the west coast of Sweden and concluded that the long-cycle (18- and 111-year) tidal cycles of climate variations were caused by vertical mixing (Pettersson 1905, 1914, 1915).

Russian scientists Maksimov and Smirnov (1964, 1967) and Currie (1981) identified an 18.6-year lunar nodal tide as a standing tide between the Earth’s poles and equator. Since the 1960 s, several studies have confirmed the 18.6-year cycle through spectrum analyses (Keeling and Whorf 1997; Gratiot et al., 2008; Hansen et al., 2015; Gustavo et al., 2018).

Wavelet spectrum analyses of the water inflows from the North Atlantic into the Norwegian Sea and Barents Sea have identified that this 18.6-year lunar nodal tide introduces surface temperature cycles of 18.6/2, 18.6, 3*18.6 and 4*18.6 years (Yndestad et al., 2008). The same cycles have been identified in the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index, the Arctic Sea ice extent (Yndestad 2021), the Arctic Ocean circulation, and the oscillations of the Earth’s axis (Yndestad 2006). Nevertheless, the cycle- and phase-relations among planetary cycles, TSI variation, lunar-forced ocean temperature variation and global temperature variation are poorly understood.

Using known cycle periods and cycle phase relations from Jovian planets and Earth´s axis nutation, this study investigates solar forced temperature variations and lunar forced temperature variations in Earth temperature variation.

Jovian Planet Oscillations
The Jovian planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune (JSUN), have elliptic orbital cycles in time-variant distances from the Sun. The elliptic orbital cycles have maximum speeds and minimum distances from the Sun when the orbital phase position is at perihelion and minimum speeds and maximum distances at aphelion.

Solar Position Oscillations
The Sun moves in a closed orbit around the barycenter of the solar system. The solar system oscillation is caused by the mutual gravity dynamics between the planet system oscillation and the solar position oscillation (SPO).

Lunar Forced Sea Temperature Oscillations
The Earth axis tilt (obliquity of the ecliptic) is approximately 23°27′. Mutual gravity among the Earth-Moon-Sun oscillations introduces a nutation in Earth’s axial tilt and precession

Deep Solar Minima Coincidences
Real solar data from 1000 A.D. (Usoskin 2005) onward yield the following classified deep solar minima: (Oort (1010–1070), Wolf (1270–1340), Spörer (1390–1550), Maunder (1640–1720), and Dalton (1790–1820)). The ACRIM TSI time series from 1000 A.D. has estimated deep minima at Oort (1013–1074), Wolf (1263–1326), Spörer (1510–1571), Maunder (1636–1706), Dalton (1773–1833), and Next (2002–2063) (Velasco et al., 2015). Solar variations are related to destructive and constructive interference between the SUN cycles.

Earth Temperature Oscillations From 1850 A.D.
The Earth’s global mean temperature increased by approximately 1.0°C from 1850 to 2020. The temperature underwent a cold time period from 1850 to 1920, increased from 1920 to 1940, cooled from 1940 to 1978 and then increased again from 1978 to 2020

Global Warming and Cooling
Global warming from 1895 to 2024 coincides with interference between solar-forced SST amplitude variations

Conclusions
This study suggests that Earth’s global temperature variabilities starting in 1850 and Greenland temperature variabilities starting in 2000 B.C. have solar-lunar-forced stationary temperature cycles up to 4450 years. The primary causes of the identified multidecadal temperature variation is the stationary orbital cycles from the Jovian planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) and the 18.6-year lunar nodal cycle from the Earth’s axis nutation."
