Send Pachauri to investigate Pluto - its Global Warming there too!



NASA data shows that every planet in our solar system is warming up. Unfortunately, climate activist do not join the dots to discover the sun as responsible for climate not only on Earth but in every planet of our solar system. Either that or they do not want to on fear that their lucrative career gets busted if they acknowledge the truth.

Jane Greaves of the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, have found strong evidence of global warming of Pluto’s atmosphere using the 15-meter James Clerk Maxwell Telescope in Hawaii. They also detected carbon monoxide in its atmosphere.  
Global Warming On Pluto Caused By The Sun (Even 3 Billion Miles Away!)




The Online Financial Times Deutschland reports that a British team of astronomers, led by Jane Greaves of the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, have found strong evidence of global warming of Pluto’s atmosphere using the 15-meter James Clerk Maxwell Telescope in Hawaii. They also detected carbon monoxide in its atmosphere.

The researchers also say that new findings show that Pluto’s atmosphere extends to more than 1860 miles (3000 km) above the surface -  or a quarter of the distance out to its largest moon, Charon. Before it was thought to be only 100 km thick. Greaves will present the new discovery today at the Royal Astronomical Society’s National Astronomy Meeting in Wales.

Pluto’s atmosphere appears to have expanded due to warming. Greaves says:
"The change in brightness over the last decade is startling. We think the atmosphere may have grown in size, or the carbon monoxide abundance may have been boosted.”  
The Financial Times writes;
"Pluto’s extremely low density atmosphere has a fragile balance made up of the coolant carbon monoxide and the greenhouse gas methane. It is probably the most sensitive in the solar system, Greaves said." The far away dwarf planet is probably currently experiencing climate change, said Greaves.
‘We believe that the expansion of the atmosphere has grown. in 1989 Pluto passed its closest point to the sun in its orbit. Probably the stronger solar radiation vapourised additional ice and the atmosphere expanded.”
In the new study, scientists found that the carbon monoxide gas on Pluto is extremely cold, at about minus 364°F (-220°C ).
"This simple, very cold atmosphere, which is greatly influenced by the sun’s warmth, could give us important information on the fundamental physical interactions and thus a better understanding of the earth’s atmosphere," Greaves said.
Yeah – like the sun plays the major role on atmospheric behaviour and climate, even when it is 3 billion miles away (the earth is only 93 million miles away) and that everything else, like oceans and atmospheres, reacts to its changes and orbital changes.
