Astronomical viewpoints suggest alternatives.

NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) launched The Herschel Space Observatory on May 14, 2009. Herschel’s helium coolant system was built to last only three years, however, so on April 29, 2013 its mission came to an end.

According to a recent press release, astronomers working with data provided by Herschel found evidence for cosmic “transmission lines” in space, although that is not how astronomers identify their observations. They found “… a radial network of filaments stretching throughout the Serpens Core, filaments that are predicted to break and fragment to form the cores of new stars.”

Filaments of electric charge can flow in closed circuits through plasma. Since the Universe primarily exists in a plasma state, Electric Universe theory explains most observations better than the mainstream approach. Observational evidence coupled with laboratory experiments distinguishes Electric Universe concepts from others. Gravity-based theories are impossible to model in the laboratory.

As the ESA announcement goes on to state, the Serpens Molecular Cloud is made up of “…filaments mixed with clumpy and irregular folds, sheets and bubble-like structures.”

Braided plasma filaments and radial spokes confirm the existence of electrical circuits in space. One of the principal tenets of Electric Universe theory is that celestial bodies are not isolated from one another but are connected across vast distances. Electric discharges in plasma create magnetic sheaths along their axes, causing the sheathes to glow, while creating other sheaths within. Those glowing double layer sheaths are the folds, sheets, and bubble-like structures identified in the Herschel data.

Double layers form when positive charges build up in one region and negative charges build up nearby. Electric fields develop between regions that then accelerate charged particles. Whenever charged particles are in motion, electricity is created, which forms magnetic fields. Electric charges spiral in the magnetic fields, emitting X-rays, extreme ultraviolet, and sometimes gamma rays.

Electromagnetism “pinches” down those channels, otherwise known as Birkeland currents, into the observed filaments that tend to attract each other in pairs. Electric fields along the plasma strands generate electric forces. However, when Birkeland currents approach each other, instead of merging, they twist into a helix that rotates faster as it compresses tighter.

The Universe is a tracery of those interacting circuits, each of them composed of untold numbers of twisting Birkeland currents. Galactic power-consuming loads in those circuits convert the electrical energy into rotational energy. Galaxies align through the cosmos like cities on a grid and should always be evaluated according to electrodynamic principles rather than mechanical behavior.

Presumptions are hard to ignore. Conventional researchers do not understand electricity, or even acknowledge its contribution to cosmic evolution, and that hampers their ability.
