SPACEWEATHER: Space Debris in Earth’s Environment

Spaceweather Signs for the Future

SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 12/19/2025

AN ORBITAL HOUSE OF CARDS: Earth’s orbital environment has become dangerously fragile. A new study led by Sarah Thiele of Princeton University warns that if satellite collision-avoidance systems were knocked offline by a major solar storm, a catastrophic collision in low-Earth orbit could occur in as little as 2.8 days.

Researchers call this ticking countdown the CRASH Clock (short for Collision Realization And Significant Harm). It measures how long it would take, on average, for a debris-producing collision to occur if satellites suddenly lost situational awareness and stopped maneuvering.

In 2018, before today’s megaconstellations filled the skies, the CRASH Clock stood at 121 days. Today, it’s less than three.

Orbital traffic is now at unprecedented levels, especially in dense shells of Starlink spacecraft near 550 km altitude. The study shows that close encounters between space objects happen every 20 seconds across low-Earth orbit. According to SpaceX’s most recent biannual report, Starlink satellites alone executed 144,404 collision-avoidance maneuvers between Dec. 1, 2024, and May 31, 2025.

At the best of times, avoiding collisions requires constant, precise maneuvering. But what would happen if satellite operators no longer knew exactly where their spacecraft were?

That scenario is not hypothetical. During the geomagnetic superstorm of May 10-11, 2024, more than 5,000 satellites made emergency maneuvers to maintain their orbits (full story). Most were Starlinks. Position uncertainties grew to kilometers–exactly the kind of disruption envisioned by the CRASH Clock. Fortunately, the storm subsided before a major collision occurred.

Satellite operators have long feared a doomsday scenario called Kessler Syndrome–a runaway cascade of satellite destruction triggered by a single debris-producing impact. This paper argues we may not be in a Kessler cascade yet, but we are operating in conditions where one bad solar storm or software failure could start the CRASH Clock ticking.

Enjoy your Starlink–while you can.

3I/ATLAS CLOSEST APPROACH TO EARTH: Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS makes its closest approach to Earth today, Dec. 19th, passing 270 million kilometers away. Experienced amateur astronomers will be able to photograph the 11th-magnitude comet as it passes our planet and heads back out of the Solar System. Look for it in the constellation Leo and submit your images here.

Earth’s orbit is drawing us to Perihelion, our closest position to the Sun, January 3, 2026.  The Time is synchronized with the Supermoon Full Wolf Moon that defines the future of the pack.


Mayan Calendar, Time and Synchronicity

Whatever shall be will be under God’s Divine Authority. 5 Transformer/CIMI represents the Holy Spirit who has its Hand upon us during every “life or death” matter. Nothing escapes the Vigilant Eye of a Father who is always near. On 5 Transformer/CIMI God makes his presence known as Peace beyond Understanding.

Who are we to say what’s good? God’s plan is an end to suffering, and an eternal Life of Spirit.

CIMI’s Word for the Day is, “Everything will be okay.” God can restore our Faith.

We’re called to be a Hand for others. Don’t make Light of the scale of the threat. Face the Truth and Bring to Light the scale of Power of Divine Agency. 5 CIMI is a Day of Empowerment by the Hand of God.

Our Darkest Days are leading to the Winter Solstice, and on, to a New Birth of Light.

THE TRECENA OF WIND/IK: THE WEIGHT OF THE CREATOR’S WORD


Visit the 13-Day Trecena Guide Page for the “Tzolk’in Field Guide: A Daily Practice for Personal Discernment.” My gift for the Tzolk’in round offers an overview for each 13-day trecena and the aspects of each day of the Tzolk’in round. The page also offers a link to resources for your own practice of counting the days to conceive your own discernment of the Meaning of Time.

THE SEASON OF ASCENSION: The Wind/IK trecena is in the 4th Season, found in VOLUME 2: Tzolk’in Seasons 3 and 4 (PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 20, 2020)

The Lexicon Concordance is a resource for looking up the meaning of number in the Bible Codes of the Hebrew gematria.  Every letter has a numerical value that expresses the Truth written in the Word.  The Tzolk’in Calculator of Ian’s creation is a place to calculate your Mayan birthday, and to find the meaning of Time for other major events.

Galactic Tone 5: Empowerment. At the center of the cube we find Five. Five is an intelligent, organizing force which manages communications and materials, knowledge and application. Fives are natural net workers who gather what is needed. These persons can probe directly to the core of any situation making them excellent investigators.

Transformer/CIMI: Cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Transformer persons achieve goals and emotional wealth. Transformer people can become highly respected business persons. They have the ability to help others through any and all transitions with tranquility due to their spiritual strength and guidance. Communities often benefit from Transformers discipline and organization skills. They strengthen the life of pregnant women and guide them through the transitions of maternity. Establishing contact with the ancestors activates innate psychic abilities, gifts to be used as tools to assist others. Transformers can have the ability to send evil intentions telepathically, this is their undoing. From these acts they lose power, easily fall into a victim role and begin to manipulate with a vengeance. A good day to tie all loose ends.

A GOOD DAY TO: Tie all loose ends.

Cherokee, Twins/ TAKATO’KA: Twins symbolize the Female Sun and Male Moon, whose union keeps the world going round. Cherokee myth has the Morning Star heralding the Sun, Venus, also being the Evening Star as representing the TWINS. The energy brings major changes all throughout life, riding the tsunamis of earthquake and upheaval, making their own waves wherever they go. They undergo powerful transformations, alternating like a flashing neon sign. The challenge is to master Balance while experiencing Chaos leading to re-birth and abundance through infinity.
