more confused than ever, if that is possible

Has science taken a wrong turn? If so, what corrections are needed? Chronicles of scientific misbehavior. The role of heretic-pioneers and forbidden questions in the sciences. Is peer review working? The perverse "consensus of leading scientists." Good public relations versus good science.

more confused than ever, if that is possible

I was looking at the net and saw the thunderbolts pic of the day 2011, re 'transformer action'. Looking for clarity I pulled up this phys.org site and read this. The replies got me. This magnetic 'reconnection' just does not sink in. Is there another way to explain it?
Is this really saying that our sun's energy comes in from the cosmos --who knows where--and drives the sun's polarity change? Is the reason the change is late is because we are not receiving sufficient energy? Is there a possiblilty the sun will not reverse? Is the sun actually building in energy as the Euro Space Agency has said? Or is the sun actually losing energy which would according to the pic of the day explanation do the same thing as building energy in the creation of a secondary layer?

For one, the article fails to tell you what creates the magnetic field they attribute all these causes to. Frozen in magnetic fields would be the exact same thing as a lodestone, i.e. the plasma electrons would all need to be aligned. The slight problem with that is intense heat makes continued alignment impossible in magnets. Heat destroys magnets. http://www.mceproducts.com/knowledge-ba ... .asp?id=23

Since only electric currents create magnetic fields that could possibly regenerate constantly in the temperature environs of the Sun, what other conclusion can be drawn, but that current is flowing in and out of our sun and every other star?

Edit: likewise how can a molten iron ball spinning at the center of our planet generate a magnetic field in the temperatures said to exist at the core? All we know about magnets and heat says it is impossible. But electric currents create magnetic fields, and I have yet to see a cool lightning bolt (think plasma).

You know what I will find funny and fascinating at the same time? How electric engineering will change in 20 years. Once you know that electricity is all around us, and that even in semiconductors, conductors there are empty spaces inbetween atoms you start seeing the whole picture...aether exists. It is the whole point of universe. It is inside us, it is in the ground it is even in the food I eat. As they would say when they bury you "ashes to ashes, dust to dust", a modernized version should read "aether to aether".

I think there exists another mode of electricity, because it should be visible on the IR, UV or some other spectrum, but it's not. We don't see anything connected to our Sun. Maybe scalar waves are a reality?

The current pic of the day explores global myths re the low sky. The ancient Egyptian myths say the creative principal, Atum, parted the void of nothingness Noon, and breathed out Maat, then breathing in Maat, he breathed out space and moisture. Such a beautiful concept; creation based on harmony. On wonders if novas are a failure of harmony and the 'bubbles' are the examples of centered forces which produce the harmonic sphere? I consider our Oort shell with our perfect sphere Sol an example of this cosmic harmony.

Reading: Earth's atmosphere before the age of dinosaurs by D Pettit, (astronaut) Octave Levenspiel, chemical engineering professor, and Thomas J Fitzgerald. Would an atmosphere bar of 5 as opposed to our current 1 make the sky feel like it is within touch? Most recent paper: google drive: Let's look again
