English crop pictures have always concerned themselves with various aspects of astronomy in our solar system. That makes perfect sense, if such messages are being sent to us across vast spans of time, from another human-like culture who lived on Earth in the distant past. What else would two such disparate cultures such as theirs and ours (who might not share a common written or spoken language) have in common, except for science, mathematics or astronomy?
For example, crop pictures from the year 1994 showed many schematic diagrams concerning the impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy on planet Jupiter (see Kris Sherwood,
www.cropcircleconnector.com/Millennium/scorpiushour.html). Likewise, crop pictures from the year 1995 showed the unexpected outburst and break-up of Comet 73P Schwassman-Wachmann near Earth (see www.cropcircleconnector.com/anasazi/longwoodwarren2006.html
or www.cropcircleconnector.com/anasazi/longwoodwarrren2007.html). In the latter case, news about break-up that comet appeared in English fields three months before professional astronomers on Earth learned of the same event.

Well, the image does seem to be indicative of the same thing... However, why would they view astronomical occurences significant enough to earth to predict them?

Copernicus, the thing is, they are telling us about events that are taking place millions and millions of miles away. I wonder if the whole "butterfly effect" theory may be true. Perhaps they are telling us what is going on out there hoping that we can better understand what is going on here. I don't know, it's just a thought. You know, "As above, so below."

Please explain more about what you mean with the butterfly effect since Im not certain I understand exactly what you mean, and I want to be sure that I do.
Effect
The butterfly effect is a phrase that encapsulates the more technical notion of sensitive dependence on initial conditions in chaos theory. Small variations of the initial condition of a nonlinear dynamical system may produce large variations in the long term behavior of the system. So this is sometimes presented as esoteric behavior, but can be exhibited by very simple systems: for example, a ball placed at the crest of a hill might roll into any of several valleys depending on slight differences in initial position.
The phrase refers to the idea that a butterfly's wings might create tiny changes in the atmosphere that ultimately cause a tornado to appear (or prevent a tornado from appearing). The flapping wing represents a small change in the initial condition of the system, which causes a chain of events leading to large-scale phenomena. Had the butterfly not flapped its wings, the trajectory of the system might have been vastly different.

The whole "butterfly effect" theory implies that what happens at point A, regardless of distance from point B, effects what happens at point B.

No, I'm saying that they might be warning us of things that are going on up there to better help us understand what is happening on earth, otherwise, I don't see the relevance of them showing us a comet slamming into Jupiter. Understand? If not, I'll try to explain it differently.
Jupiter
The astronomical symbol for the planet, , is a stylized representation of the god's lightning bolt.

Now, if teh "butterfly effect" is true, and it may be, then the ramifications of the comet slamming into Jupiter is tremendous..

Get my drift?

Also you should know that there has been a cropcircle with a butterfly. Here it is: Butterfly effect crop circle from July 2007

Okay, the "butterfly effect" basically states the what happens at point A, regardles of distnce, effects what happens at point B.. Now, Jupiter is approximately 365 million miles from earth... However, the reverberations throughout the universe carries the "information" from the planet Jupiter into the atmosphere of the earth, which, in turn effects both the social and environmental happenings here on earth.

Wow, that is awesome... I wasn't aware of that one... It's kind of ironic that I'd be talking about the "butterfly effect," and wham!!! Wow...
Originally posted by Copernicus
Ok, so a comet hitting Jupiter would impact what happens here on Earth according to that theory?
Its all interesting, please continue.

Correct. I mean, generally, the "butterfly effect" is applied to events that occur on Earth, but if true, there is no real reason to think that the same wouldn't happen throughout the universe. Now, some would ask, "Does that mean Jupiter's impact also effects what happens on other planets and in other regions of the universe?" Most definitely. While the impact would be varying degrees, it would still impact other planets and parts of the universe.
