Abstract :
Fine detail comparisons of experimental and high fidelity computer simulations of MHD Z-pinch column instabilities; show that these configurations were carved by mankind on rock in antiquity. This recognition has led to a global survey of these objects in 139 countries, from 70degN to 48degS. In all cases, after a survey of fields of several million petroglyphs, the field-of-view (FOV) alignment is found to be within 1deg of true south. A complete survey of the rock art on Easter Island, especially from caves in the vast braided lava tube system validated an earlier study: that the artists had a narrow field-of-view of synchrotron light within half-a- degree of true south and an inclination between 22-31 degrees above the horizon.
