Carlos said the emerging era of the Fifth Sun will call attention to a much-overlooked element. Whereas the four traditional elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water have dominated various epochs in the past, there will be a fifth element to reckon with in the time of the Fifth Sun --- that element is 'ETHER'
I would suggest it could be manifest as the alignment of charged particles from our solar system (Sun), and our galaxy (Milky Way) surge.
It was supposed that the ether filled the whole universe and was a stationary frame of reference, which was rigid to electromagnetic waves but completely permeable to matter. Hooke endorsed the idea of the existence of the ether in his work Micrographia (1665), and other several philosophers of the 17th century, including Huygens, did the same. At the time of Maxwell's mathematical studies of electromagnetism, ether was still assumed to be the propagation medium and was imbued with physics properties such as permeability and permittivity.
In 1895, Lorentz concluded that the "null" result obtained by Michelson and Morley
Another important finding comes out of Harold Aspden's energy of rotation experiment [5].
He spun a permanent-magnet rotor up to its rated speed. He found that if the rotor is brought to rest and spun up again within a minute after stopping, it required only 30 Joules to bring it to the same speed as compared to 300 Joules for the first attempt!
The importance of this experiment is that it strongly points to a medium that is affected by the first spin and which in turn affects the second spin.
The most plausible explanation lies with a medium like the aether in which one can imagine the first spin creating something like an aether vortex (see Inertia section) which persists for a time after the object stops spinning.
Also it will be assumed that the aether extends into the 4th dimension. This is required in order to give a satisfactory explanation for charge and matter formation.
In modern physics, space and time are unified in a four-dimensional Minkowski continuum called space-time,

do you not think that the mods are capable of doing their jobs without your beckon call?
this crap is really getting to me. i am SHOCKED at how many times i open a thread and am greeted in this way.

Every 5,000 years in conjunction with a planetary alignment, a "Great Evil" appears which attempts to destroy all life in the universe. In 1914, the Mondoshawan (pronounced "Mon-do-SHEE-wan") arrive at an ancient Egyptian temple and retrieve the only weapon capable of defeating the Great Evil, a collection of four stones representing the classical elements and a Fifth Element, which conjugates the other four into life. After taking the weapons as "war is coming" but promising to return, the Mondoshawans present a key to their human confidant, a priest, and tell him to pass it through future generations.
In 2263, the Great Evil appears and destroys a Federated Army battleship as it heads to Earth. As the Mondoshawans return to Earth, they are ambushed by shape-shifting Mangalores, hired by wealthy industrialist and Great Evil ally Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg (Gary Oldman). From the remains of the ambush, Earth scientists recover a portion of the Fifth Element and reconstitute it to create a humanoid woman, "Leeloo" (Milla Jovovich), "the perfect being." Leeloo, terrified of her unfamiliar surroundings, escapes and lands on the flying New York taxicab of Korben Dallas (Bruce Willis), a former major in the Federated Army's Special Forces.
Dallas delivers Leeloo to current keyholder Priest Vito Cornelius (Ian Holm) and his apprentice, David (Charlie Creed-Miles). Cornelius learns that the four original Elements were entrusted to Diva Plavalaguna, an opera singer. Because the Mangalores failed to obtain the stones, Zorg kills them, but their compatriots decide to obtain the Elements for themselves. General Munro (Brion James), Dallas' former superior, appears at Dallas's apartment to have him to travel undercover as the winner of a rigged contest to meet the Diva. The publicity of the contest attracts the Mangalores and Zorg to the space liner as well. Dallas travels to the spaceport and boards the spaceplane with Leeloo as Cornelius instructs David to prepare the temple and sneaks onboard the spaceplane.
On the flight, Dallas meets media personality Ruby Rhod (Chris Tucker), his escort for the trip. The Diva is killed when Mangalores attack the ship, but Dallas retrieves the Elements from the Diva's body. Zorg arrives, takes a decoy case and leaves a time bomb, which causes the liner's occupants to evacuate. Zorg departs on his spacecraft, but then discovers that his decoy case is empty, and thus returns to steal the real case. He turns off his bomb so that he can have time to search the spaceliner, with only five seconds to spare; but upon its deactivation, a dying Mangalore reveals that he had his own bomb planted with a five second countdown, which destroys the entire ship, killing Zorg and the remaining Mangalores. Dallas, Cornelius, Rhod, and Leeloo escape just in time, using Zorg's spacecraft.
The four return to the temple on Earth as the Great Evil approaches. The group arrange the stones and figure out how to activate them all, but Dallas finds that Leeloo has become disillusioned and unwilling to perform her role because humans seem compelled to war. Dallas confesses his love for Leeloo and kisses her. Realizing that love is worth saving, Leeloo finds the inspiration to release the "Divine Light", causing the Great Evil to become dormant as a new moon in Earth's orbit. The film closes with Dallas and Leeloo making love in the chamber used for her resurrection.
It will be the start of a new era resulting from and signified by the solar meridian crossing the galactic equator and the Earth aligning itself with the center of the galaxy."
