Some research is showing that QUANTUM PHYSICS Sunspots, Disappearing BEES?

Question

Is a possibility of CLimate Changes coming from the SUN.
Honeybees and Sunspots may be interacting
in November of bees mysteriously disappearing. Not just one or two, but entire colonies of tens of thousands of bees at a time. As temperatures have warmed and it has become safe to open hives, the extent of losses is grave:
Sunspots follow an approximate 11-year cycle, corresponding to increases in solar activity. This solar activity causes geomagnetic effects during the peaks, but effects on earth’s magnetic field also occur during the minimums. Using these observations, scientists have predicted that the next solar maximum, expected to peak in 2010 to 2012, could be the most intense ever
if this were not enough, the results imply that bees can perceive quarks, thereby interacting with the quantum world without disturbing it in the ways both observed and predicted by quantum theory
QUANTUM Conscious Observer that manifested reality? GOD....
Thoughts?

Answer 1

I would definitely give a plausible explanation..
but then again my atheist friends will bounce off with lot of mail and rush to the Yahoo Community Guidelines and my answer removed from here along with a warning.
So..Lord have mercy on all of us.

Answer 2

I think this is horrible ill researched.

Bees dissappear regularly. Sunspots come and go regularly. However, the patterns just dont match up. Yes, this time they happened to coincide, but bees dont go on the same scale as sunspots, so I hardly think its even worth considering. Unless for some reason the bees are only bothered by every few sunspot increases, not all of them-which is quite illogical.

Side note: Even if we accept that insane theory, response to sunspots in no way means that they can perceive the Quantum World. It could be visual, it could be magnetic, it could be temperature related. It could be anything. Its a random coincidence though.

The ridiculous religious implication you cite isnt even worth going into since the entire thing is based on what looks like a five minute glance at a scientific paper.

Answer 3

Niels Bohr drew on Rutherford’s discovery of the nucleus and Einstein’s suggestion that energy travels only in distinct quanta to develop an atomic theory that accounts for why electrons do not collapse into nuclei and why there are only particular frequencies for visible light.
Bohr’s model was based on the hydrogen atom, since, with just one proton and one electron, it makes for the simplest model. As it turns out, Bohr’s model is still mostly accurate for the hydrogen atom, but it doesn’t account for some of the complexities of more massive atoms.
According to Bohr, the electron of a hydrogen atom can only orbit the proton at certain distinct radii. The closest orbital radius is called the electron’s ground state. When an electron absorbs a certain amount of energy, it will jump to a greater orbital radius. After a while, it will drop spontaneously back down to its ground state, or some other lesser radius, giving off a photon as it does so.
Because the electron can only make certain jumps in its energy level, it can only emit photons of certain frequencies. Because it makes these jumps, and does not emit a steady flow of energy, the electron will never spiral into the proton, as Rutherford’s model suggests.
Also, because an atom can only emit photons of certain frequencies, a spectroscopic image of the light emanating from a particular element will only carry the frequencies of photon that element can emit. For instance, the sun is mostly made of hydrogen, so most of the light we see coming from the sun is in one of the allowed frequencies for energy jumps in hydrogen atoms.

Answer 4

I can't believe you actually said 'the results imply that bees can perceive quarks'.

That has to be the weirdest statement since Eddie Izzard suggested that wasps make chutney.

Don't ever use the word 'quantum' again. You'll break it if you bend it like that.

Answer 5

Cannot offer my thoughts without seeing the observations of the scientists that you speak of. I am not aware of such research. Fascinating though if you can point me toward the study I'd appreciate it.

Answer 6

I love nut-rants, I mean nutrients. Theyz bee gud fer gibber and onions.

Quoth the Homer: "The bees are in the whatnow?"

Answer 7

may be you are right because nowadays scientist are researching a lot on Quantum physics. long ago scienctist did not believe on Quantum theory.

Answer 8

Bees and quantum physics sorry i don't see the connection.

Answer 9

Sigh.

Nothing is much worse than the hamfisted attempts of Christians to try to demonstrate that "science" supports the god-idea.

Why can't you just have "faith"? You know, the "evidence of things unseen"?

Answer 10

It seems like yet another straw-grasping theory to excuse the realities of pollution.
