Scientists say 'prelude' to the sixth mass extinction is happening right now

The next great travesty shall be magnetic, though it's devastation will not be directly upon humanity but our technologies. Not all, just everything that is dc or attached to the grid. :( And with the greatest weakening occurring in the middle of the US we shall get to experience this first. Ever pay attention to anomalous technology in ancient cultures. How about an 18 thousand year old tablet with An apache helicopter, fighter jet, submarine, etc. Google abydos helicopter, from the temple of abydos in the SETI II complex in Egypt. Sumerians utilized an extremely complex 36,000 year calendar,as do the Mayans and the Incans, choco canyon in New Mexico is a giant observatory and calendar the toltec aztec version of why did these places, on opposit sides of the globe use 36000 year calendars aligned to eachother, to the solstice and in alignment with orions belt despite orion not being visible to half the planet. If these ancient cultures really had advanced technologies what hapoened to them and the. technologies they possessed.
There is only one single event that recurs in clockwork on a 36,000 year cycle, that is our polar reversal, though some what a misnomer as we flip in quarters not wholes. Any geoligist, any archaeologist and any other study urilizing the direction of iron molecules as a means of age dating verification can verify.
The sun flips it's poles every 11 years, the earth flips every 36,000 years. We started our journey across the center of the universe a little over 6 yrs ago taking an approximated 11 to 13 years to pass through. That puts us smack dab in the middle and our magnetic field is degrading at an extremely increased rate. First appearing as overall weakening now as we draw nearer the flip point this is viewed as a weakening in our hemisphere with the greatest point being right in the middle of the us, and a strengthening over Asia.if therebwas indeed ancient technology similar to our own, and lacking an understanding and integration of a bipolar adaptability, as in majority we as a whole lack this understanding now, then the reversal effectively nullifies all technology. And since we are always advancing from where we are without knowledge of the beginnings and steps bringing technology to its current point, then back to the dark ages we go, except for a handful of miniscule but useful applications which most scientist and many school kids may be aware to replicate, say items such as the baghdad battery. Hmmm pause for thought. 2nd pause if younarevat all familiar, it may bring thoughts of the planet of the crossing which we now understand that we are, and the return of the Annunaki every 36000 years, perhaps we may yet find ourselves in position with another body to which only at perhilion, bring us close enough in proximity to warrant such a claim, yet such advanced knowledge began somewhere. Ok I think I veered far enough down the rabbit hole lol. Backgrounds in Archaeology, Theology Philosophy, Technology as far as earned degrees go, as well as an eidetic memory and an interest in most everything, I am able to link together various aspects without trying.

Erin Nelson - Interesting hypothesis that the next event will be magnetic. However, if the impact is technological instead of biological does it really qualify as a mass extinction event? One could argue that the probable mass reduction in the number of humans as the result of such a technological event, along with the parallel positive environmental impact, could actually be a benefit to other organisms. Nature would be allowed to run its course without interference. There will always be species in the process of becoming extinct. Disease, predation and/or environmental shifts can take any species below critical mass over time. The fact that multiple species are simultaneously at various levels towards extinction does not constitute a "mass extinction" unless the cumulative losses can be attributed to a single causal event. In the same sense, the loss of any single species, even humans, is not a "mass" extinction. It is extinction.

The concept of anomalous technologies in ancient cultures has always been a fascinating topic, but one that I have a certain level of skepticism about. To say that an image on an ancient temple wall is an Apache helicopter or fighter jet is pure speculation or projection on the part of the observer unless he/she knows exactly what the creator was thinking or intending to portray. Without that knowledge, any image is subject to individual interpretation. It is the tangibles that are intriguing. The Antikythera mechanism and Nebra sky disk demonstrate levels of technology or astronomy and precision that are difficult to understand given the cultures that created them. Did you ever wonder how much mankind was set back technologically and scientifically by the destruction of the libraries at Alexandria and Pergamum? We might already have planets terra-formed and occupied.

PO2 Richard C. Yes the article is on extinction however in my statement I say the next devastation

Erin Nelson - Mea culpa and mea apologia. You are correct. I paid more attention to the subject of the article than your response. Twenty slaps to the back of my hand for my oversight.
