The greatest achievement of human history could become our greatest tragedy. With the world facing a possible imminent climate shift and escalating conflicts, what would be the planet's greatest tragedy should we fail to take action? The answer: YOU will die and so do all your children and their potential children after them. It's called EXTINCTION.
Where do we go from here? The book explores the answers to that question in detail. It covers the science, probe technology, economics and psychology of what we can and must do to save the planet and the whole human race.
The book details how we can and must create a 2nd sun in the sky by igniting Jupiter into a giant sun through a nuclear fusion reaction. This has been done in the lab, but now in order to save planet Earth, we need the fusion reactor to be planet sized and on an even bigger planet than our own.
Nature provides everything we need and has done so for millions of years. Now, we must exploit what Nature has given us just a few million miles away in space in the form of a Gas Giant, a sun that is ready to explode into a 2nd sun, but only when we're united enough and skilled enough in space travel to be able to pull of the greatest achievement in human and possibly all other forms of life's history.
One book is a science fiction novel and The Jupiter Sun - itself is a scientific exploration of how and when we can do this.
FINAL EVIDENCE for the coming EXTINCTION of ALL LIFE ON EARTH is upon us.
If you live in California right now, you see the RIVERS IN THE SKY - Extreme amounts of moisture falling on most of California right now for weeks - THE FLOODING IS OF HISTORIC PROPORTIONS - NEVER SEEN BEFORE - after FIRES that we have never seen before.
The oceans are the HOTTEST IN RECORDED HISTORY and turning ACIDIC - KILLING OFF ALL LIFE in the oceans - something we MUST HAVE in order to breathe since the planktonic life in the ocean constantly ingests our Carbon and expels - OXYGEN that we need to keep from SUFFOCATING. This troubling event PLUS the elimination of all the trees on the planet is what has to STOP OR WE ARE SIMPLY GOING TO STOP BREATHING ONE DAY - ALL OF US at ONCE.
We'll be looking around for someone to save us - but everyone who might have done so is suffocating TOO! What's up Planet? Let's GET CRACKING!
This is ALL happening because of the Green House Gases - Mostly Carbon Dioxide we are all pouring into the atmosphere at record levels that emanate from our CARS, TRUCKS, AIR TRAVEL and WORK, the BASIS of our FOSSIL FUEL ECONOMY.
UNLESS we want to DESTROY OUR ENTIRE ECONOMY - we MUST FIND A WAY to begin to REVERSE our Green House Gas Emissions BUT we must do so in a way that doesn't KILL THE BABY WITH THE BATHWATER, so to speak and our ECONOMY can quickly as possible TRANSITION into the Clean and FREE Energy from the SUN. But not just the one sun we have now --
The Solar Energy Collected on the Earth by Solar Photo-Voltaic Panels constructed on the Earth and collecting the total amount of sunlight hitting the EARTH is NOT ENOUGH -
We must also harness the Free and Clean and Infinite Energy from a 2nd Sun in the sky that can be created by humans working on MARS!
MOST OF US already know about how bad things are getting - BUT we don't know how to fix them. After very careful consideration and review - we have the information now to put forth to the people of the Earth and it is time for those who will die - if nothing is done - to decide.
The main problem is that no one wants to lose their job. Rightfully so. The vast majority of us are depending on our jobs to feed our families and keep a roof over our heads. The problem is that most jobs are depending on the FOSSIL FUEL ECONOMY to exist. So, by ending use of the FOSSIL FUELS, we KILL the ECONOMY. Most of us would starve.
Therefore, the solution to the mess we've gotten ourselves into is to start DIGGING OUT of the fossil fuel economy RIGHT NOW. HOW? By putting the resources into SPACE that can RETURN the favor A THOUSAND - no a MILLION TIMES OVER!
BY igniting JUPITER into a 2nd Sun in the sky - we will gradually move to a completely SUSTAINABLE ECONOMY without the loss of anyone's INCOME - it will merely be MOVED OVER to a job that is related to the CLEAN ECONOMY and away from the KILLER ECONOMY.

The Book To End All Books by Michael Mathiesen
Can it actually be done? Do we want to do this? What if we empowered SpaceX and NASA to go and ignite Jupiter into a 2nd Sun? Would the advantages outweigh the disadvantages and potential risks?
That's
what I wondered one day as I was writing a new science fiction novel
– The Book To End All Books – so titled because I like to believe
it might be the last book anyone really needs to read. But, as it
turns out there needs to be more attention on this idea than I can
produce in one book and so I am encouraging NASA, SPACEX, Blue
Origin, ESA and others to get on board with this idea sooner rather
than later.
Soon
after the completion of my scifi novel, my writing instincts were
confirmed when the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, a part of the
Department of Energy, announced that they had successfully created a
Cold Fusion Reaction here on Earth and for the first time, got more
energy out of the reaction than they had put in to hold all the
hydrogen atoms in place and ignite them into a fusion reaction, the
combining of two hydrogen atoms to create one helium atom. It’s
the same process used by our sun which gives off infinite amounts of
free and clean energy that our planet’s Biome then uses to make an
environment that we can tolerate and thrive in while it also makes
enough food for us to eat.
However,
the scientists at Lawrence Livermore who performed this nice little
trick tell us that the day that we can all count on practical
fusion-reactor-generated power is still about 50 years away - far too
long in my opinion since we will definitely have gone over the
Tipping Point by then, meaning that no matter what we do to help
reverse the effects of Global Warming, nothing we can do will be
comprehensive enough to counteract the centuries long damage we’ve
done and we eventually die off, maybe even killing all life on Earth
along with us.
In
my latest science fiction novel, my story predicts the next 1,000
years in which the Earth gets a 2nd sun in the sky. But, when I
finished this book, I realized that everything in my story could take
place in a far more compressed timeline and in fact, had better do
so, or else we may not get another chance.
I
also began to assess the fact that creating a 2nd
sun in the sky would be the most cost-effective, efficient and timely
ways to reverse global warming – as strange as it sounds –
because with twice as much free solar energy coming down from the sky
each day and for longer periods of daylight each day, we would never
have to burn an ounce of fossil fuel ever again, thus rapidly
reversing the ill effects of Carbon Dioxide and other toxins pouring
into the atmosphere from our vehicles and factories.
So,
in this article, I’m going to put forth briefly all of the ways
that this can happen in our own lifetimes, just in time to save our
planet and the many ways that we can speed this up and all of the
reasons why we will want to do this and find ourselves living in a
modern future where the most intelligent species ever evolved on this
planet will join together to save their planet by creating something
as wonderful as a new star in the sky. If there is life anywhere
else in the universe, they may all become highly envious of us when
they discover what we’ve accomplished here in such little time.
By
transporting the technology that was just developed at the Lawrence
Livermore Labs and other laser research facilities around the world
as well as the latest means of investigating particle physics, to the
many moons of Jupiter and aiming the high-powered laser beams at the
center of Jupiter, we can setup the same experiment of creating cold
fusion on a planet that is known as a ‘Gas Giant’ because it is
filled with copious amounts of highly compressed Hydrogen atoms just
waiting to fuse into Helium atoms, thus becoming a star, although a
‘Dwarf Star’ in our sky. This is something we have already done
in the lab – why not in Space?
When
you study all of the other proposals to save our planet in trying to
reverse global warming, they all fall flat on their faces simply
because they would all have to be approved by an almost limitless
number of governmental bureacracies, agencies and politicians who are
directly influenced by the fossil fuel industry. When I assess a
suggested method of getting ourselves out of this mess we’re in, I
have to assess the odds of the proposal being adopted in the halls of
Congress, the United Nations and in areas of the world like China and
Russia, two places that we can know with absolute certainty will
never agree to limiting their economic growth as they struggle
aggressively every day to become the number one political and
economic power on the planet.
And
no proposed solution can actually succeed unless and until it is
endorsed and utlized by every one of the individuals, corporations
and countries in existence today. If only one of them dissents,
we’re still staring down the barrel of extinction.
Therefore,
the mode of our salvation must start out by being something that if
only one nation can do, will impact all the others with or without
their permission. Since the United States has chosen to be the
so-called ‘leader of the free world’ it is encumbent on us here
in this country to live up to that claim once and for all and deliver
to the world the one and only solution that might avoid our total
destruction and do so forthwith. Let anyone who complains about it
become known as the ‘Destroyers of Civilization’, the greatest
evil extant today.
It’s
really that simple.
And
so, I invite anyone alive today to come up with a better way to go,
but it must be available and practical for any nation like ours to
perform without the approval of other nations. And, it must be the
most cost-effective solution and one that does not destroy our
economy. Launching space ships and continuing our space exploration
as we have seen fulfills all of these preliminary requirements in
that no one can veto our Space programs and the projects themselves
stimulate our economy more effectively than any other endeavor simply
by the increased technological advances that are made at each step of
the way.
For
example, Humans will soon be traveling to the stars inside ships
propelled by Anti-Matter powered engines. NASA is actually
experimenting with this mode of space travel even as we speak.
So,
what if I’m right and a 2nd sun in the sky is the ONLY way to avoid
the coming extinction of all life on this planet? If true, then the
very next thing we need to do is to start researching in every
college and university exactly what the benefits would be as well as
the potential dangers and unintended consequences, how serious they
may be and how we may be able to mitigate them.
The
Jupiter Sun has been patiently waiting for billions of years for
someone to come along and hit the switch that would turn it on. My
Scifi novel lays out how and why the Greatest Achievement in Human
history could happen. But it’s got to go beyond science fiction
and become a popular living concept quickly.
We
can and must ignite the hydrogen deep inside Jupiter's core to start
the fusion chain reaction that powers our present and only sun -
that's it. We can send SpaceX and NASA spacecraft, both manned and
unmanned, in a few short years and . . . ‘Butta Bing – Butta
Boom’ . . Solve our entire energy crisis - and most of our other
problems - overnight in what could actually be quite simple compared
to other ventures.
When
done, they will shout it loud and clear from all the rooftops that
this was Humanity’s Greatest Achievement! Can we sit around and
wait any longer? SpaceX, Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin and others must be
involved as well as NASA, the European Space Agency and all the other
national space agencies, I count about 70 such as Japan’s and even
the UAE. In researching my science fiction novel, this event takes
place in 3002 A.D., because I thought it important to show how
carefully and deliberately we must proceed before pulling the trigger
on Juipiter. In my book, the debate for and against goes on for
centuries. Unfortunately, in our present reality, we may not have
this magnum sized luxury of time. We’re cutting it close, too
close for my liking and I hope yours because it could be all your
childrens’ lives that are the most greatly impacted and impacted
the most severely if we do nothing.
In
this author’s humble opinion, we must get all the resources
together and perform all of the tests necessary for Proof of Concept
by the end of this decade. This done, we need to immediately launch
the first space vehicles who will take several years to land all of
the equipment necessary to do this on several of Jupiter’s moons.
It will require years more perhaps to focus them all onto one spot
that would kickstart the Fusion reaction necessary to explode Jupiter
into a 2nd sun.
No
one thought landing a man on the moon was possible until President
John F. Kennedy made his famous speech and set the national goal to
go there by 1969. NASA then made it happen. We need a leader perhaps
in the field of Astronomy or Physics or even in the White House to do
the same today for putting a 2nd sun in the sky and thus saving our
kind.
There
are risks of course and that is why we need to study the idea in
depth. For one, the Jupiter sun would create 24 hour long daylight on
the Earth about one fourth of the time. But this is just an educated
guess of mine. It could be many more days and nights that are
affected. It could be less. We need to study the orbit of Jupiter
in detail so that we can learn exactly how much more daylight we
would have and create a calendar that farmers could depend on –
(The Jupiter Daylight Savings Time) and how this would affect our
agriculture and all other aspects of our lives.
We
also need to know how much a 2nd sun – much smaller than our
present sun and much further away would affect the temperature of our
planet so that we don’t burn ourselves to death. In my estimation
the added heat from Jupiter would be more than offset by the reduced
CO2 emissions that would result from the immediate cessation of
fossil fuels.
This
also has to be studied, as well as how to collect all of this extra
energy. But it seems to me that during the time it takes to setup
the ignition equipment on the moons of Jupiter, we can be improving
our entire solar panel technology and launching the more advanced
panels into orbit around the Earth as well as Mars that would be
enough to collect the additional solar power so that the day we
explode the 2nd sun, we are actually cooling our planet and going
back to more normal and environmentally friendly patterns.
Why
do this? I hope I have convinced you that on the day we have two suns
in the sky - we will start down a path that allows our civilization
to continue without having any unknown and unintended consequences.
This means that on both Mars and the Earth we would have plenty of
food to feed our entire population and all the energy we need for
everything we all aspire to having on a daily basis and even helping
to ensure the survival of our kind in the universe.
Since
Jupiter sun’s solar energy would be just as clean and sustainable
as well as unlimited in supply this would end the current global
climate crisis on the Earth, and help make Mars a huge success
because being closer to Mars it would raise the temperatures there by
dozens of degrees, and eventually help to terraform the planet as
well. This would be our insurance policy that we magnificent
creatures will be around for centuries into the future. The Mars
colony might also be able to develop as a launching pad for
inter-stellar travel as well, perhaps even before the end of this
century. But this is only my lone opinion and it would strike me as
the greatest irony in history if we all continued our path to
extinction while we have such a comprehensive and simple solution in
hand.
We
hope that in good faith and action that anyone now aware of this
material will move it from their hands and into the hands of another.
It may seem like Science Fiction, but there is a planet not so very far away that is up against the greatest threat that exists in the universe - self-annihilation. They have come to the point in their technology that within the next 50 to 100 years they are either going to murder all life on their planet, including their own mass suicide OR they are going to turn their technological prowess into the greatest achievement by any life form anywhere in the universe. It's going to be one or the other. But this is happening not on another planet way out there in Space somewhere. It's not science fiction any more. This is our fate staring us right in the eyes.
They have in front of them or that is to say WE have in front of us the method of saving all life on this planet by
The idea sprang out of my Science Fiction writings recently in a book entitled 'The Book to End All Books'. In it, my characters and main plot develops into a very simple way to ignite the planet Jupiter into an actual sun.
Jupiter is known by astronomers to be a 'Gas Giant'. This isn't a large man with indigestion. It's a classification for planets that start to develop into a sun, but never quite accomplish the feat of a spontaneous fusion combustion that is required to be a sun. These planets are filled with hydrogen just as the sun is, but that hydrogen never becomes hot enough or compressed enough to start the chain reaction under its own power.
The good news is that the Lawrence Livermore lab, a part of the Dept of Energy, within the United States Government recently cracked the code for a human made fusion reaction and actually created fusion in the lab. They used high-powered lasers and more than 100 of them to aim them at a single spot in a magnetic bottle filled with Hydrogen atoms. When they got it right, the fusion reaction started and produced more energy comingout than they had to put into it to get it started.
This was as huge first-of-its-kind and it made me realize from my earlier science fiction musings that the time had come where we could actually pull off what people will someday know as the 'The Greatest Achievement in Human history' - the ignition of a planet into a star.
This book not only explains the way that this can be done by SpaceX from Elon Musk, Blue Origin from Jeff Bezos and NASA from all of us, but it also shows in great detail how this could be our cheapest, fastest and best way out of our present conundrum of requiring so much energy produced by fossil fuels which is the basis of our whole economy and turning all of that infra-structure away from the climate emergency that it causes and towards the entire planet running on Solar Power - which will double as soon as we can turn Jupiter into our 2nd sun.
There are risks of course. It could be the biggest flop in history, or the 2nd sun could produce so much more heat in our sky that we make things worse. It is my best educated guess that the gradual over-warming of our planet due to a 2nd sun will actually be less than it is now due to the fact that we will no longer be forced to use fossil fuels any more, which will soon produce zero CO2 poured into the atmosphere and therefore, the greenhouse effect will decline, actually cooling our Earth and perhaps even in time to save us and all future generations.
Of course, educated guesses are not good enough to base trillions of dollars of investment that will be used to do this thing, and that's why this book is also a call to action to start the research and development of this concept so that we can have the confidence to go ahead with it or replace it with something better. I challenge anyone to come up with something better.
I'm extremely pleased that Elon Musk said recently that he's going to resign as chief of Twitter because we're going to need all of his attention as well as others of his ilk on this herculean task as soon as possible.
We can and we must IGNITE the planet Jupiter into a 2nd Sun in the sky and we must do it sooner rather than later.
AT PRESENT I have a Science Fiction treatment of this subject - BUT am working on a Research Project that I will publish later with the cooperation of a major Astronomy Dept. at an accredited University.
Because - The Benefits of a 2nd Sun in the sky - especially one that is in the orbit that Jupiter maintains at present is the KEY TO OUR SURVIVAL.
ZERO CO2 EMISSION and FREE, CLEAN and SUSTAINABLE SOLAR ENERGY from a 2nd sun enough to power every single human activity for ALL ETERNITY.
#NASA, and #DOE should band together and start the JUPITER IGNITION PROJECT (JIP) before it's too late. ALL other solutions take too long and cannot stave off EXTINCTION. http://TheJupiterSun.com
The Jupiter Ignition Project is something that few have heard of today - but MOST of us will know about it soon - or else we all die and the Human race goes extinct in just a few short decades.
What is it?
It's a notion that I got while creating my last book - The Book To End All Books - the IGNITION OF JUPITER INTO OUR 2nd Sun in the sky.
I know - SOUNDS CRAZY - but hear me out. Please!
Government Laboratories like the Lawrence Livermore Lab are spending billions to create COLD FUSION - an artificial sun inside a small bottle.
KEEPING A SMALL SUN WORKING ON PLANET EARTH will always USE UP TONS OF ENERGY to keep the SMALL SUN or the fusion reaction contained in the little bottle.
AND it will NEVER produced enough clean energy IN TIME TO SAVE THE PLANET. It would be our last great scientific achievement.
WHEREAS - the Greatest PLACE to IGNITE a SMALL STAR is the PLANET JUPITER because it was INTENDED to become a SMALL STAR - what's known as a Dwarf Star EXCEPT that it never did. It is stillborn.
BUT JUST IN TIME FOR THE RESCUE - along comes the HUMAN MIND now expanded it its knowledge so completely that it has the power and the ability to MAKE A STAR APPEAR suddenly in the night sky.
THE FREE, CLEAN and SUSTAINABLE Solar Energy from the 2nd Sun, the Jupiter Sun - would be enough to CONVERT ALL OF OUR FOSSIL FUEL BURNING SYSTEMS into SOLAR POWERED SYSTEMS and machines OVERNIGHT - thus REVERSING the Global Warming and Climate Crisis that is continuing to plague us and which will soon KILL ALL LIFE on Earth.
MAKE SOME NOISE - LET CONGRESS know about this idea. SCREAM TO NASA about it. Demand that they RESEARCH the concept.
Because WHEN NASA, SPACEX and BLUE HORIZON, JPL, DOE and others TEAM UP TO SEND UNMANNED and MANNED MISSIONS to MARS and then JUPITER for the purpose of IGNITING THE GAS GIANT into our 2nd SUN - there will be NO HOPE for us.
THERE IS HOPE - IF WE START WORKING ON THIS on an INTERNATIONAL and UNPRECEDENTED SCALE - IMMEDIATELY.
