EMP denial

[Gerard Zwaan]

November 6, 2025-Airlines have been ordered to cancel thousands of flights because of the government shutdown and drones near airports. While they provide explanations to passengers, they fail to address the risks posed by Nibiru debris entering the atmosphere and the EMPs caused by tectonic plate shifts. 

Amazon Web Services recovered Monday morning from a widespread outage that disrupted services for major retailers, airlines, social media apps, financial platforms, and more. AWS infrastructure supports millions of websites and platforms.Air France 447 in 2009, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, and the recent Germanwings A320 incidents have drawn attention due to their significant impact on the airline industry, often attributing blame to pilot suicide, storms, or poor judgment. Similarly, crashes involving electric trains like the Disney Monorail, DC Metro in 2009, and Amtrak 188 are investigated with discussions of safety devices, track maintenance, or mechanical failure taking center stage. 

The public only begins to suspect something larger at play when widespread issues arise. Disruptions in cell phone service are often blamed on blocked tower access or bad weather, while the Blackberry outage in 2008 was attributed to a software glitch. However, engineers maintaining equipment and the grid are not easily deceived. During the Washington DC blackout, an electrical issue initially described as a "surge" hinted at something unusual. 

A key distinction exists between a failed electrical system, a simple outage, and an electromagnetic pulse. A pulse causes a surge—a sudden increase in magnetons and electrons—that disrupts equipment reliant on steady particle flow, leading to a runaway state. Surge protection can guard against lightning strikes, shutting down equipment to prevent damage. Yet, absent a lightning strike, such surges may point to the charged tail of Planet X, also known as Nibiru. 

What lies ahead for the public? As cell phone service and satellite cable TV continue to degrade, and as planes experience increasing electronics failures or cockpit smoke incidents, the challenges posed by such phenomena may become harder to ignore.

Norfolk Broads village and pub left without power as fire crews battle sub-station blaze

https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/ferry-inn-and-stokesby-homes-without-p...

An electrical transformer fire in Stokesby saw the entire village plunged into darkness and people told to leave their homes. Engineers are working to reconnect people to the grid. The Ferry Inn has had power restored and will open at 11am today (Saturday, August 15) Picture: Alison Brewster/Ferry Inn 

"..Emergency services rushed to the scene at Stokesby, in the heart of the Norfolk Broads, on Friday at around 8.30pm amid reports of a large fire in an electricity sub-station close to a tight cluster of homes.

Police at the scene closed the road and residents closest to the blaze were asked to leave their properties.

Alison Brewster, landlady at the nearby Ferry Inn, said they first realised something was wrong when lights started flickering and they saw huge plumes of smoke coming from near The Green.

She said: “All the food had gone out and we were sitting outside just to cool down and we saw all the lights in the pub started flickering.

“There was this incredible noise and we could not work out where it was coming from.

“We looked over to The Green and saw these huge plumes of smoke and this massive fire behind double gates.

“We went out and my daughter and her boyfriend started banging on doors to get everyone out.”

Mrs Brewster added that by chance a police officer was already at the pub on another matter and was able to act instantly, cordoning off the road.

The noise and scale of the response which included fire crews from Acle, Gorleston, and Carrow as well as police drew people from their homes, worried about what was going on.

For a time the whole village was plunged into darkness but those closest to the electricity sub-station were still cut-off this morning.

The latest information from UK Power Networks said engineers had been able to carry out some repairs.

Damage to overhead network equipment, however, needed a specialist team expected to arrive in the village at around 9am.

They estimated those still without power would be reinstated by 12.30pm today, Saturday..."

The Red Cross wants to be sure you're prepared for Space Weather, and could be commended. However they are embracing A  MAIN ESTABLISHMENT LIE: BLAMING THE SUN.

American Red Cross works to educate people on space weather

https://www.koco.com/article/watch-mars-mission-nasa/33468355

Space weather isn’t a term you hear every day. In fact, you may not even know how to prepare for this kind of “weather.” That’s where the American Red Cross comes in to help.

TRANSCRIPT: 

the American Red Cross is finding a way to help keep your kids entertained and learning. This summer, meteorologist Sabrina Bates reports that they're posting educational content online just for your family. The American Red Cross wants to bring everyone into the discussion of preparedness. I spoke with a Red Cross volunteer today to get some insight on this local stem series that will leave a larger impact, starting with the discussion about something you may not have heard of before. We have preparedness pods, educational pods for hurricanes and earthquakes and fires and tornadoes. But we really haven't addressed space weather. And we're hoping toe introduce area students and families not only to the vulnerabilities but the way that they can prepare for a solar storm. Space weather refers to the space environment between the sun and earth that can affect our technology. Solar storms could even impact us here in Oklahoma. If we were in a have a severe solar storm. It doesn't just potentially impact a county or a coastline. It could impact the entire northern portion of the United States. The Red Cross wants to be sure you're prepared for this. If it were to happen But with this new home school environment, they're also hoping that you sit down with your kids to teach them something new. Starting today, the American Red Cross of Oklahoma is sharing links, homework assignments and suggested subjects on their social media pages. Here you can follow links to NASA and FEMA. You'll be guided through science and safety topics to learn more on how to prepare your family, but also get a cool science lesson in for the kids. My hope is that even after this awareness campaign ends this week, that that people will continue to study space, whether hopefully we will inspire some future scientific minds and leaders in the community. If you do participate in these lessons, they're hoping you take three things away. Better preparedness knowledge and a desire to get involved with community service in the first alert. Weather Center Sabrina Bates, Ko Seo five News

Space weather refers to the space environment between the sun and earth that can affect our technology. Solar storms could even impact people in Oklahoma.

The Red Cross wants to be sure people are prepared for a potential space weather event. But with the new home-school environment, they’re also hoping parents sit down with their children to teach them something new.

The American Red Cross of Oklahoma has shared links, homework assignments and suggested subjects on its social media pages. If you do participate in the lessons, the American Red Cross hopes you take away three things:

better preparedness, knowledge and a desire to get involved with community service.

An Explosion & Fire On the USS Bonhomme Richard Leaves 57 Injured

An explosion caused a three-alarm fire at a San Diego naval base, which was concentrated aboard the USS Bonhomme Richard and has resulted in dozens being injured.

Several hours after the fire started, reporter Tim Arvier said that San Diego Fire Department Chief Colin Stowell said the ship would likely “burn down to the water.” According to reporter John Dissauer, the chief said, “This fire could go on for days.”

According to the SDFD, the first alarm was called at 9 a.m. on July 12, a second alarm was called at 9:09 a.m. and the third alarm was called at 9:51 a.m. PDT. As of 9:30 a.m. PDT July 13, the fire has been burning for at least 24 hours.

The U.S. Naval Surface Forces initially announced on Twitter that 11 sailors had experienced minor injuries in relation to the incident, but otherwise, all crews were accounted for. An updated report noted that 34 sailors and 23 civilians had been hospitalized in the fire’s wake.

Krishna Jackson, the base’s spokeswoman, told Stars and Stripes that an estimated 200 sailors were aboard the ship when it caught fire and that the ship itself was undergoing routine maintenance when the fires started. The ship, also referred to as an “assault vessel,” acts as a vehicle to deploy and land helicopters, small boats and other water-related vessels.

The Fire Started with An Explosion July 12

Local TV station NBC-7 reporter Allison Ash noted that a “loud explosion” was heard from an “inferno” coming from the ship at around 10:51 a.m. PDT on July 12.

By about 11:05 a.m. PDT, firemen said they had located the fire, but had not extinguished it yet, instead requesting more water lines, according to fire radio transmissions. Another said they would need to start moving people back due to the fumes.

It is unclear what started the explosion. According to what one firefighter said on radio transmissions, an officer aboard the ship told him that there are no “heavy ordinance” (large firearms such as mortars and machine guns) above the ship, but only small arms (pistols, guns, etc.).

One firefighter seemed to indicate that the explosion came from the hatch. “The fire looks like it’s moving further to the bow and there’s a lot more smoke coming out of the hatch were the explosion started,” that firefighter said around noon over radio transmissions.

NBC San Diego assignment editor Bill Feather reported on Twitter that Rear Admiral Phillip Sobeck said the fire started in the lower cargo hold and that the earlier explosions were caused by a backdraft.

“Our conditions are getting worse here and I’m going to start pulling people out. We’re going to wait until the sprinkler system is active and then put people back in,” one firefighter noted on radio transmissions.

“Conditions on my end are not getting any better and are looking a lot worse, so I’m looking to go defensive,” another firefighter replied.

Firefighters determined it would be best to pull everyone out at roughly 11:24 a.m. PDT and noted that a sprinkler/hose system would likely be ready by in half an hour.

“All units, we are going defensive. Start evacuating the ship,” SDFD announced over a loudspeaker.

The SDFD reported on Twitter that multiple agencies, including Federal Fire, reported to the scene.

“We have an explosion, we have no injuries at this time, right now we are taking all personnel and gear off the pier,” one firefighter reported on radio transmissions at roughly 11:38 a.m. PDT Five more ambulances were requested to the scene as firefighters cleared the pier.

Firefighters Received Reports From Sailors That The Fire May Have Reached Fuel

At around noon, a firefighter reported over radio transmissions that there was heavy smoke coming from the ship. “We’ve got heavy smoke and we’re no longer putting water in the hole because of the explosion,” a firefighter said over radio transmissions.

At 12:02 p.m. PDT, firefighters set up a continuous foam operation.

Half an hour later, a dispatcher noted over radio transmissions that, “Engine One reporting multiple sailors running from the ship reporting that the fire was getting in the fuel.”

“We had a mass of sailors run toward us when the smoke turned black and they said it had gotten into the fuel,” the firefighter from Engine One reported before mentioning that a broader area might need to be evacuated.

As night fell on July 12, the “#shipfire” showed no signs of slowing down and people posted on Twitter that more explosions were heard.

Firefighters are still battling the smoke and some residents have posted images on Twitter of helicopters being used to drop water on the vessel.

Audra Stafford of the San Diego’s NBC station tweeted that she spoke to people as far as away as Escondido, San Marcos, Vista and Rancho Penasquitos said they could smell the smoke. The National Weather Service San Diego Station has confirmed that the smoke is far-reaching, explaining to residents via Twitter, “Noticing a fairly acrid smoke smell this morning? It’s likely related to the #shipfire aboard the USS Bonhomme Richard.”

The San Diego Naval Base released a statement via Facebook advising people that they are not accepting donations and warning people to be aware of scams offering to provide financial support for those impacted by the fire.

Ryanair Flight Makes Emergency Landing in Greece

ATHENS — A Ryanair flight en route from Berlin to Athens made an emergency landing at Thessaloniki airport on Friday with 164 people on board, Greek authorities said.

The flight issued a distress signal and sought permission to make an emergency landing while flying over the Halkidiki region of Greece, the civil protection ministry said.

The ministry said the crew had reported a fire, but a Ryanair spokeswoman said the emergency had been triggered by an "unidentified odour in the cockpit and cabin" and that there had been no fire.

Emergency protocols were deployed and the aircraft landed safely at Thessaloniki's Macedonia airport, where 157 ticketed passengers, an infant and six members of the crew disembarked, the ministry said.

US Navy still trying to figure out exactly why aircraft launch system on $13 billion supercarrier failed

https://www.businessinsider.com/navy-still-diagnosing-key-tech-on-c...

• The aircraft launch system on the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford failed during recent at-sea testing, and the US Navy is still trying to figure out exactly what went wrong.
• A fault in the power handling elements of the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) caused it to fail, hindering flight operations until a workaround was developed days later.
• The specific cause of the fault is still unclear though.
• "We're still going through the diagnosis. We're doing full-fault isolation to understand ... what caused the condition to come up in that way," James Geurts, the Navy acquisitions chief, said Thursday, according to Inside Defense.

The US Navy is still unsure exactly what caused a critical piece of technology on the first-in-class aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford to fail earlier this month.

On June 2, during at-sea testing, the Ford experienced a power problem that caused the Electromagneti..., hindering flight operations for five days.

Unlike the steam catapults on the older Nimitz-class carriers, the new EMALS on the Ford uses electricity to create strong magnetic fields that propel a carriage connected to an aircraft down the runway, throwing the plane into the air.

While the EMALS is supposed to be better than the steam catapults, it has not had the smoothest development.
