EPOXI veiw of Earth at 31 million miles-NASA

Video of the Moon transiting the Earth, as imaged by NASA’s EPOXI spacecraft, was made from the still images collected when EPOXI’s spacecraft imaged the Earth-Moon system on 28-29 May 2008. When the images were acquired, the spacecraft was just outside the orbit of the Earth and ahead of Earth by 31 million miles, 1/3 AU, making it as far from Earth as Mercury is from the Sun.

There are many forms of pattern recognition with visual, sound and touch being the more well known forms. Another less understood venue of pattern recognition, that often gets mixed up with fringe thinking, is the skill of interpreting weak electromagnetic fields and their physiological affect on the body and most likely other biological life. It is a similar process to that of developing the skill of human echo location but with weak electromagnetic fields.

My grandfather and father had the ability to sense weak electromagnetic fields in nature and used their skill for practical purposes such as finding buried metal water runoff culverts or looking for suitable sites to drill a water well. Over the years, I have come upon some insights about how designer matched electromagnetic fields from an electrical coil can replicate the weak field of molecular structures. This is certainly an out- of-the-box concept but if you can sense these weak fields it really is no big deal. I wrote a short article on this here.

So as not to get side tracked with these insights, I will circle back to an area that may be testable and that is Kepler 10b. My view is that the Kepler light curves (LC) may hold more precise information about transiting planets in addition to the visual light drops and may allow for identifying planets in noisy or quiet LCs. Jon Jenkins, Kepler Co-Investigator, put up on the Kepler web site some sonifications of light curves he made. Two were of Kepler 10b, one raw data audio file and the other a processed audio file. My interest is in the Kepler 10b raw data sonification.

Playing the raw data file sounds like static to one untrained. In my case, I was able to extract what I believe to be a close approximation of Kepler 10b as a compound audio tone. It is important to keep in mind that I am not keying into the audible tone but rather the electromagnetic field emanating from the audio coil in the speaker. My thought is that this compound frequency match can be reversed engineered back into a visual representation, if desired, or used as a marker for planet transits in the Kepler SOC pipeline. My view is that all transiting planets will have a similar signature. Here is a short article I wrote on Kepler 10B with the extracted transit frequency as a mp3 file.

This brings me back to the Earth view from the EPOXI spacecraft that Sara Seager recently discussed in her talk at the SETI institute. I believe the same process of sonification can be applied to the EPOXI photographic data shown at the top of the page by converting them into a high quality raw data audio sonfication. I can then extract the description of Earth in terms of a compound electromagnetic frequency from the background noise. Knowing the Earth frequency, the extracted field could be reversed engineered for Earth-like planet searches in the Kepler SOC pipeline or other venues of searching for Earth-like habitable planets. In this case, maybe a habitable Earth-like planet with a moon.
