There are two fascinating features of Outer Space that not many people are cognizant, and are part of God's design of the Universe which was done on the fourth day of Creation.  These two features are Solar Wind and Cosmic Rays which have the implication of limiting space travel for human beings that was in many Science Based Biblical Scholar beliefs, including this author, that this was a designed limitation done purposely.

As not commonly known, any space craft going outside of the Earth's protections of primarily the Magnetic Field, would require protection for the Astronauts that technology is not currently invented.  See the topic on Space Travel for more information on problems and limitations.

This author has a theory that the Great Flood's breaking up of the Earth's Crust, "fountains of the great deep", allowing more radioactive isotopes to be omitted was part of the shorten life spans that occur after the Great Flood besides the Water Canopy Theory.

Genesis 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.

Solar Wind

Solar winds are not anything like air moving on Earth but there are some similarities in the description that has caused the name comparison.  The following are interesting points about Solar Wind:

  1. It is when the Sun emits plasma from the corona which travels outward from the Sun into the Solar System. 
  2. The plasma is the source of Solar Winds, and the Solar Wind is a continual stream of protons and electrons.
  3. The source of the plasma has not been completely identified on the cause, but describe as a high-speed ejection with jets that occurs routinely and all the time.
  4. The interesting point about the source of the plasma is the Sun's outer atmosphere is theoretically believed to be hotter than the perceived and continuous oval surface area.
  5. Observations of plasma ejecting from the Sun can occur every few minutes or continuously for a sustained period.  This author has had the exciting inexperience of observing several time.
  6. The speed of Solar Wind ranges from 250 miles (400 kilometers) per second to 500 miles (800 km) per second.
  7. The effect on Earth from Solar Wind is a flurry of charged particles in the magnetosphere.  The area in the magnetosphere is the location of the magnetic field lines going to both the south and north poles of Earth.  The strength of the Solar Wind can sometimes cause a geomagnetic storms associated with beautiful aurora displays but cause problem with satellites, telecommunications and power grids.
  8. Solar Winds can exit our known Solar System.

Cosmic Rays

  1. Cosmic Rays are atom fragments that continuously bombard the Earth from outside of our Solar System.
  2. Cosmic Rays move at the speed of light.
  3. Cosmic Rays can cause damages to Satellites.
  4. There is the theory that source of Cosmic Rays is from Stars in Supernova states, but this is not the only theorized source.
  5. The Earth is mostly protected from Cosmic Rays by the Atmosphere and Magnetic Field.  The atoms in the Atmosphere collide with Cosmic Ray atoms that causes a type of barrier.
  6. Cosmic Rays are damaging to human-being's cells with enough exposure can cause damages to the DNA which eventually can cause cancers and mutations that will eventually lead to death.
  7. It is not commonly known that the Earth omits naturally occurring xenon from radioactive isotopes in the Earth's crust that are also harmful to humans.
