Dec 5, 2014 The Wishing Well Cluster in the southern sky is twice the size of the full Moon. The conjectures about how it works are as varied as the colors of its stars. The consensus conjecture of stellar evolution has been developed in detail over several generations. A…
Dec 04, 2014 Is the Hubble Space Telescope seeing billions of years into the past? How far away are things? In an Electric Universe, the answer is not what is commonly presented in science journals. Astronomers are fitted with spectacles that can see distances only in terms of redshift when…
Dec 03, 2014 European astronomers have discovered that some quasar spin axes are aligned with the Large Scale Structure (LSS) in which they’re embedded. The Electric Universe (EU) also expects quasars to be aligned with the larger Birkeland currents that power them. But the LSSs of the Big Bang…
Dec 02, 2014 Some galaxies exhibit polygonal structures. The term “diocotron instability” is not generally well known. Its use is confined to the field of plasma physics and refers to the distortions that occur when two sheets of plasma flow past each other. It is often confused with the Kelvin-Helmholtz…
Dec 01, 2014 ESO (European Southern Observatory) has announced the discovery of a “huge” star-forming region obscured by dust in the Spiderweb Galaxy protocluster. Alternatively, it may be a tiny spatter of dusty plasma ejected from a nearby galaxy. The Spiderweb Galaxy is a radio galaxy with a redshift…
Veröffentlicht am 20.10.2014 Wird NASA die Geschichte umschreiben? Uebersetzung von Hannes Taeger Ein neuer Bericht von NASAs Weltraummission Cassini zum Saturn könnte ein Meilenstein für das Studium elektrischer Phänomene in den Weltraumwissenschaften sein. Der Artikel, betitelt Cassini gefangen in Hyperions Teilchenstrahl, beschreibt die Raumsonde Cassini als “eingetaucht in einen Strahl…
Nov 28, 2014 Some meteors begin to flare in the mesosphere. What causes large meteors to “burn up” or explode in Earth’s atmosphere? Is it friction and other aerodynamic effects? Is it that they are loosely conglomerated, being so frangible that turbulence causes them to breakup? During most meteor showers…
Nov 27, 2014 The size of Jupiter’s red vortex is smaller than ever. For over 300 years, the Great Red Spot has persisted in Jupiter’s atmosphere—longer than telescopes have existed to see it. It is commonly believed to be a cyclonic storm driven by thermal convection from deep inside…
Nov 26, 2014 The definition of “life” can be ambiguous. The Galileo spacecraft was launched on October 18, 1989 from the Space Shuttle Atlantis, and subsequently entered orbit around Jupiter on December 7, 1995. After eight years in orbit, Galileo was deliberately incinerated by sending into the atmosphere of…
Nov 25, 2014 Ionized particles from the Sun contribute to electric discharges on Earth Electric Universe theories propose that plasma discharge behavior is a better model for solar activity than most consensus opinions would like to accept. Experiments using a positively charged sphere show that a plasma torus forms above its…
