Stanislav Petrov's background


Stanislav Petrov was a lieutenant colonel in the Soviet Air Defense Forces, and was the officer on duty at the Serpukhov-15 bunker near Moscow which housed the command center of the Soviet early warning satellites [...] Petrov's responsibilities included observing the satellite early-warning network and notifying his superiors of any impending nuclear missile attack against the Soviet Union. - Wikipedia


What makes Stanislav Petrov such a great example?


Stanislav Petrov took the decision to override what the system was telling him, on 26 September 1983, and so not to allow the triggering of an automatic counter-strike against a falsely supposed nuclear first-strike by the USA. In doing so, he undoubtedly averted World War III and the destruction of the human race together with most of the advanced life on Earth.


Albert Einstein had a miraculous year in 1905, when he published three revolutionary scientific papers, one was to garner him a Nobel Prize for Physics, but the one that really made him famous was his paper on Special Relativity, published on 26 September 1905. This led to General Relativity, e = mc², and eventually to the atomic bomb.


Saving The World

The astounding thing about Stanislav Petrov's actions, if we put to one side the enormous debt of gratitude we owe, is that the timing of this in 1983, links back directly to the publication of Einstein's paper in 1905, the one that led to the possibility of Nuclear War.


In the chart shown here, the inner chart is of the moment that disaster was averted, while the outer shows the time in 1905 when Albert Einstein's paper on Special Relativity was published.


The two events are connected, not only by sharing the same day of the year - the 26th September - giving them conjunct Sun positions, but also the Mercury positions are conjunct, and Venus positions are conjunct [joined by Mars in the case of the publication of Einstein's paper].
