February 18, 2020 Electric filaments energize galaxies. “A colour is a physical object as soon as we consider its dependence, for instance, upon its luminous source, upon other colours, upon temperatures, upon spaces, and so forth.”— Ernst Mach A recent press release talks about cosmic filaments connecting vast galactic structures….
February 17, 2020 Formed from a pebble cloud? NASA launched the New Horizons spacecraft on January 19, 2006. As Picture of the Day readers recall, New Horizons provided confirmation of Electric Universe principles when it flew by the Pluto/Charon system on July 14, 2015. On January 1, 2019 New Horizons flew by…
Solar Energy is Our Future by Mathias Hüfner Climate change is forcing our society to switch from fossil fuels to climate neutral fuels. Wind energy and photovoltaic will not be enough to satisfy the growing hunger for energy of an ever larger world population. As a result, nuclear energy comes…
February 14, 2020 Where do organic compounds in space come from? Cosmic rays are charged particles that are detected in the Sun’s local neighborhood. About 90% of all cosmic rays are single protons, or hydrogen nuclei, followed by 5% helium, with the remainder being all other elements in the periodic…
February 13, 2020 Lightning is not well understood. Prevailing ideas see circulating water vapor moving up and down through clouds in a process of convection. The condensation theory presupposes that water is heated by the Sun until it evaporates, rising into the air where it collects into clouds, finally cooling…
Scientists from the Universities of Bonn and Strasbourg have published a paper which reported the successful formation of galaxies without the hypothetical influence of dark matter. As reported by phys.org, “For the first time, researchers from the Universities of Bonn and Strasbourg have simulated the formation of galaxies in a…
February 12, 2020 A satellite to orbit the Sun. The Solar System is constantly bombarded by dust particles, but because the Sun’s magnetic field is so strong, most of it is deflected around a bubble-shaped zone that extends beyond Pluto’s orbit. The amount of dust blowing in to the Solar…
February 11, 2020 Plasma’s behavior is independent of scale. Intense lightning in thunderstorms can interact with charged particles (cosmic rays) coming from space. Given the right conditions, lightning causes giant particle accelerators to form above the clouds. Cosmic rays are sub-atomic particles, mostly protons, that can knock electrons off molecules…
February 10, 2020 Dark matter does not exist in an Electric Universe. In 1998 an inexplicable “tug” was detected acting on the now defunct Ulysses spacecraft as it traveled through the Solar System. When radio signals from Earth re-transmitted from an onboard transponder, an anomalous acceleration toward the Sun was…
A meteorite that crashed to Earth half a century ago has provided a jolt of surprise to astronomical theory. The object, called the Allende meteorite, exploded over the desert in Mexico in 1969. Scientists studying meteorite fragments have made a shocking discovery. Material in the fragments, which the scientists have…
