Positively charged particles and raw solar plasma stream to the surface, confirming a direct current flow from sun to Earth. Is the circuit competed back to the sun? How? Through these same portals, by lightning/sprite/"ray" discharge activity above the ionosphere, or just exactly how?? e
The discoveries include giant magnetic ropes that connect Earth's upper atmosphere to the Sun and explosions in the outskirts of Earth's magnetic field. – NASA Spacecraft Make New Discoveries about Northern Lights

Yep.
Modern cosmology is essentially pseudoscience, as all it's claims are non-falsifiable & they ignore and reject anything to the contary. It's Ptolemy's epicycles all over again.
An unverifiable deduced hypothesis is, by definition, pseudoscience.
