Induction

Beyond the boundaries of established science an avalanche of exotic ideas compete for our attention. Experts tell us that these ideas should not be permitted to take up the time of working scientists, and for the most part they are surely correct. But what about the gems in the rubble pile? By what ground-rules might we bring extraordinary new possibilities to light? If you have a personal favorite theory, that is in someway related to the Electric Universe, this is where it can be posted.

Induction

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_induction
Electrostatic induction, also known as "electrostatic influence" or simply "influence" in Europe and Latin America, is a redistribution of electric charge in an object, caused by the influence of nearby charges
Where can we see this applied at solar system scale or greater?
It does not say anything about needing a conducting material between the objects.

I reckon that that depends on what one means by charge voltage need conduct & material. And what they actually are.
We are little closer to knowing than was Canton or Wilcke.
Pray Ivor Catt or Forrest Bishop the mistakes in the following innocuous paragraph.
Tell there is no such thing as voltage or charge or static charge.
No such thing as electrons.
What is electromagnetism?
What is conduction?
But i admit that none of that need hurt pursuing the questions of this thread.
Wikileaks.......... Electrostatic induction, also known as "electrostatic influence" or simply "influence" in Europe and Latin America, is a redistribution of electric charge in an object, caused by the influence of nearby charges.[1] In the presence of a charged body, an insulated conductor develops a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other end.[1] Induction was discovered by British scientist John Canton in 1753 and Swedish professor Johan Carl Wilcke in 1762.[2] Electrostatic generators, such as the Wimshurst machine, the Van de Graaff generator and the electrophorus, use this principle. Due to induction, the electrostatic potential (voltage) is constant at any point throughout a conductor.[3] Electrostatic Induction is also responsible for the attraction of light nonconductive objects, such as balloons, paper or styrofoam scraps, to static electric charges. Electrostatic induction laws apply in dynamic situations as far as the quasistatic approximation is valid. Electrostatic induction should not be confused with Electromagnetic induction.

I don't think it exists on such scales at all - due to plasma shielding of charges.

Electrostatic Induction, as applied to cosmic plasmas, must be considered in this context:

What is transmited from one object to another, so electric charge gets "redistributed" in one object?
"The field" they say. Field of what?

To me most of the info about electricity looks like a case of "we know what happens but please do not ask why it happens"

I disagree very strongly with "most" & with "electricity".
"Most" should be replaced with "everything".
"Electricity" should be replaced with "everything".
