Extraordinary views of earth via a time lapse sequences of photographs
This is taken with a special low-light 4K-camera by the crew of expedition 28 & 29 onboard the International Space Station from August to October, 2011.
Magnetism and magnetic fields have a major impact to survival of the species - we just do not know how it works.
For example at birth the human body contains 75% of water that decreases with the age averaging at 60% in males and 55% in females. Water molecule consists of two hydrogen and one Oxygen atoms and is a bipolar liquid behaving like a miniature magnet. This bipolar property means that in a steady strong magnetic field all water molecules should align themselves parallel with the prevailing magnetic field.
Below video clip 1 shows a single water drop vibrated mechanically at 100 Hz. How can we explain what we see? In addition to the standard physical variables we have a miniature bipolar freely moving molecule size magnets in interaction between all the surrounding miniature magnets and the earths magnetic field. This opens a myriad of questions about the phenomena itself. It all get extremely complex when electrolytes are introduced making the water itself conductive to electric currents that all create their own magnetic fields changing it all even further.
The only conclusion is that we can draw is that a changing magnetic field must impact the life. Is it positive or negative can not be answered. The only "constant" we know is the slow decline of the strenght in the earth's magnetic field.
Every living creature, plant life included, incorporate plenty of various elements in their structures that create electrolytes when in contact with water either in acidic or basic or even neutral environments.
Solving this puzzle will be more than elusive but we may have a tiny crack to the wall hiding the code of the life itself. THis issue has not advanced that much since the first himanoids started pondering it some 8 million years ago: what is the life that we see around us, what happens when we die, and is there something beyond?
Clip 1:
We know so far that life is highly dependent on electricity and movement of elements and molecules. If there is no changing magnetic field, no batteries nor fuel cells to maintain or create electric currents for the musscles to work and grow the life will either hybernite or end. The plants are different and most thrive on sunlight based colar electricity and they don't survive either without the movements of the electrons.
Solar Stroms
The major solar wind storms will pass cros our solar system at speeds of hundreds or even thousands of kilometers per second and we can do nothing but orserve, Clip 2. We as human do not even see of feel as they pass through us. They are frequent like hurricanes, taifunes and thunderstorms but the real strong ones that are dangerous a major way to our power genration systems are rare and will harm only systems that hapen to be on the major impact site of the storm.
We have experienced solar storms that have knocked off power grids and that they can totally destroy the electronics e.g. in our spy and various communication satellites. That is the main reason we have now satellites monitoring for the approaching storms so that we can temporarily turn of their electronics and even physically turn them so that they are shielded from the imopact. How much of the common computer problems like failing hard diks are related to these storms is unproven.
To understand the issue better the video Clip 2 below from the surface of the sun was picked from NASA's web sites. We see here the life of a large solar "flare" measuring hundreds of earth's diameters from birth to disappearance into space as part of the more or less constant solar wind. The continuous flow of small plasma clouds leave the surface together with almost particle like bright spheres moving around resembling a little such phenomenas like normal bubbly water.
The plasma itself is extremely hot gas like the one we have seen in TV surrounding the outer front surface of the spacecraft when it is returning from the space station when it meets the atmosphere.

The Earth's magnetic field protects our planet from the solar wind. Here is a video Clip 3 of the actual solar wind taken from the pair of early warning satellites showing the magnetic field interactions of both Venus and Earth with the actual solar wind:

Fissures in the magnetic shield of earth are known to occur, enabling the solar wind to penetrate our near-space environment and perhaps even further, Clip 4. A study based on data collected by the four ESA Cluster satellites and the CNSA/ESA Double Star TC-1 spacecraft, provides new insight into the location and duration of these ruptures impacting us. These fissure when connected to strong storms are the ones that can be dangerous to our electroncis and perhaps even us in rare cases.

We also found interesting clips from a U-Tube video showing major planet like spheres of material thrown out from the sun itself and then most likely falling back again, Figures 1 & 2. It resembles mud puddles in Yellowstone or droplets you see for a while in your carbonated water glass after filling. The size of these droplets is comparable to the size of the earth. They are perhaps the the same as the bright spots visible in the first video clip with birth of the plasma flare.
