In primordial times, Earth’s weather was like Jupiter’s, with raging plasma whirlwinds and segregated electric jet streams that attained supersonic speeds.
Close examination of mountains and other landforms shows clear evidence of wind-blown deposition that layered the land, supersonic shock waves that shaped mountain flanks, massive lightning discharges that welded rock, and plasma vortexes that blow-torched the land.
We don’t know what the surface of Jupiter is, but it doesn’t matter — it still forms a plasma sheath — a double layer at the interface between crust and atmosphere.
On Earth, dust particles, aerosols and the water cycle — evaporation, condensation, ice and rain — are the charge carriers or the “wires” of the circuit.
They are not restricted to the Lichtenburg pattern of a lightning bolt but are evident in the helical path of field-aligned Birkeland currents, the geometry of electromagnetic fields, and drift currents reacting to far-field potentials.
So it should be no surprise at all to find the same fractal patterns in Jupiter’s winds as we find on Earth’s landscape if indeed the landscape was formed by similar winds.
Like a hurricane, it is fed by billowing thunderstorms surrounding a whirlpool, which together forms a piece of a circuit — a ring current between the atmosphere and ground.
The shape at the cloud tops is carried to the surface and reflected there because the structure is a fractal, rotating filament of current reaching the surface.
The mountain rim is the pattern of a standing shock wave.
山の縁は、定常衝撃波のパターンです。
The repeating triangular layers on the inner flanks are impressed there by harmonic shock reflections, which channelled the wind at the boundary layer, and trapped dust in the low-pressure zone of the triangular wave-forms.
Shock waves produce triangular patterns of expansion and compression when a supersonic wind is deflected
— like when it hits solid land.
衝撃波は、超音速の風が逸らされると、三角形の膨張と圧縮のパターンを生成します
—それが堅固な土地にぶつかったときのように。
Just ahead of where a shock wave reflects, a low-pressure region forms called the “Separation Bubble”.
衝撃波が反射する直前に、「分離気泡」と呼ばれる低圧領域が形成されます。
The separation bubble is in the shape of a tetrahedron, with a triangular face perpendicular to the wind at the same angle as the shock wave reflection
— called the Mach angle.
As dust-laden, ionized winds pass through the separation bubble, this low-pressure region collects dust like a vacuum cleaner and piles it in triangular layers.
That is precisely what has happened here to produce a bootprint crater with an expansion fan.
それがまさに、拡張ファンを備えたブートプリント・クレーターを製造するためにここで起こったことです。
This single example is proof of my theory.
この単一の例は私の理論の証拠です。
Anyone with a supersonic wind tunnel can produce a Prandtl-Meyer expansion fan, tetrahedron shaped separation bubbles and triangular harmonic reflections
But show a way to produce all of these together in a large scale coherent form by tectonic uplift, seismic vibration, slip faulting, erosion, or any other conventional geophysical means.
Proof of the winds of Jupiter are in NASA’s data;
proof of the ground effects on Earth is under our feet, and in decades of applied science in supersonic shock wave behavior.
California’s most prominent feature is the San Joaquin Valley and its ring of mountains, including the imposing SierraNevada mountain arc and coastal ranges.
This almost perfect triangular plain of high desert is demarcated by the straight line of the Tehachapi mountains to the north, and the straight line of San Gabriel mountains to the south, which also, by the way, aligns with the San Andreas Fault.
These winds are sinking winds
— that is they are pressing against the ground in a Venturi effect as they speed around the cusp of the storm.
これらの風は沈む風です
—つまり、嵐の先端を高速で移動するときに、ベンチュリ効果で地面を押し付けています。
The yellow-brown ring of the storm is a rising wind, forming what is essentially a continuous ring of thunderstorms.
嵐の黄褐色の輪は上昇する風であり、本質的に雷雨嵐の連続した輪を形成します。
The sharp triangular demarcation between desert and mountain is the shear zone where shock waves formed between the low-level horizontal winds and the rising winds of the rotating storm.
Lightning discharge from these plasma streams focused on the piling mountains below with the capacity of a thousand-mile long thunderstorm being continually fed new energy.
The current dumped in the strike zone didn’t simply flash a split second, here and there, but arced continuously, diffusing through the land welding granite from dust and sand.
The granite of the Sierras lies atop sediments, which implies the storm(s), by either wind or tsunami, brought layers of dust long before lightning began to strike.
A drive through the region shows the mountains are windblown dunes that rise abruptly from the flat valley floor and display exactly the wind patterns described.
If you have ever driven from Sacramento to Lake Tahoe on State Highway 50, past the town of Folsom, you have climbed the Sierra foothills that constitute this feature.
A distinct swirl is evident in the hills just above (to the East) of Folsom Lake.
フォルサム湖の真上(東側)の丘には、はっきりとした渦巻きが見られます。
The swirl is fed by ground-level winds entering the vortex from the left (South), whereas the top level winds in Jupiter’s cloud tops flow in from below (from the West on the Earth image).
The dark filaments are ground-level jet streams that scoured the land, while the light-colored cloud tops are thunderstorm anvils raining charged dust to form the mountains.
But overlay Jupiter’s oval storm on California and all seven features depicted here match in both shape and position, and the wind patterns not only look like but explain the land features.
