Jul 11, 2018 Another comet exhibits outbursts far from the Sun. Astronomers recently announced the brightening of a small comet as it passed into the inner Solar System. Called PANNSTARRS (C/2017 S3), the comet began a significant energetic outburst on July 4, 2018 that, according to observers, began “for no…
Jul 10, 2018 Astronomical theories would benefit from an understanding of plasma-state matter. Winston Bostick is a pioneer of Electric Universe theories, although he did not identify with those ideas by name. He is particularly noted for plasmoid experiments that led to the construction of a dense-plasma focus device….
Jul 9, 2018 Organic molecules can be created with electricity. According to a recent press release, “… heavy organic compounds containing hundreds of atoms…” were detected at Saturn’s moon Enceladus by the Cassini Saturn orbiter during several of its flybys through the moon’s south polar geysers. A recent Picture of the…
: Bruce Leybourne’s presentation will examine the geometries of Earth’s electrical stellar transformer circuits. Both statistical data and geometric correlations suggest geophysical relationships between lightning and earthquakes. The basic “Delta-Y” electrical circuit geometry of the tetrahedron “fire element” is expanded to a little known geometric form that unifies the five…
Jul 6, 2018 What energizes this nebula to such extremes? Picture of the Day articles note that many structures in the galaxy are active energy sources, ejecting charged matter from their poles, leaving long braided tails, or revealing formations of tightly bunched filaments. A detailed image of Eta Carinae reveals a…
Jul 5, 2018 If currently fashionable theories are Ultimate Truth (or at least smart ideas) and myth was stupid superstition, where is the dividing line? Was Ptolemy stupid and Newton smart? But General Relativity is not just an improved version of Newton’s theory, it’s different: Einstein’s stretchable space-time is…
Jul 4, 2018 Most asteroids are presumed to be loosely compacted “rubble piles”. On December 3, 2014 the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) launched Hyabusa 2 from the Tanegashima Space Centre in Japan, on a sample return mission to the near Earth asteroid (NEA), Ryugu. Hyabusa 2 follows on the…
: The accepted description of reality in astronomy asserts that only the law of gravity applies in space. Yet nearly every discovery of the space age, from the Van Allen radiation belts around the Earth to the high-velocity winds around Neptune, has been announced as a surprise. And the surprises…
Jul 2, 2018 How does the Sun produce heat and light enough to sustain life on Earth? Spectrograms of the Sun reveal that it is made-up almost entirely of hydrogen (71%), helium (27%) and some minute percentages of oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, carbon, and six other elements. Every element is present…
: Scientists on Earth are again being reminded of the awesome power of dust storms on Mars. The first stirrings of what has become a globe-encompassing phenomenon began on June 17, when a dust storm touched down on the famous Gale Crater. For many years, the Thunderbolts Project has offered…
