Mystery 8th-century cosmic blast captured in trees
June 4, 2012 - 12:54PM

In the late eighth century, Earth was hit by a mystery blast of cosmic rays, according to a Japanese study that found a relic of the powerful event in cedar trees.

Analysis of two ancient trees found a surge in carbon-14 – a carbon isotope that derives from cosmic radiation – which occurred just in AD 774 and AD 775, the team report in the journal Nature on Sunday. (Melbourne Age)..............Read more: http://www.theage.com.au/technology/sci ... z1ws5ZFF1P

Mysterious radiation burst recorded in tree rings

Spike in carbon-14 levels indicates a massive cosmic event — but supernovae and solar flares ruled out.

The swirling maelstrom of the sun, pictured in outstanding detail during the Transit of Venus by one dedicated space enthusiast

By Eddie Wrenn

PUBLISHED: 17:28 GMT, 22 June 2012 | UPDATED: 18:27 GMT, 22 June 2012
