However, details solar cycle in general, are unpredictable. You are right that the Earth's magnetic field protects us, forming a large area of space called the Earth's magnetosphere, within which much of the substance solar emissions captured or deflected from the main course, but there is no reason to expect a change in magnetic polarity in the near future. Such changes in polarity of the magnetic field occur, on average, no more frequently than once a 400.000 years. Euro Pacific Capital contains valuable tech resources. 15.

The whole scenario of catastrophes in 2012 – a lie, fueled by announcements of a science fiction film '2012 catastrophe 'filmed in Hollywood.
