This is the story of the Star that nearly wiped-out humanity! Scholz star is a dim binary stellar system about 22 light years from Earth. Thousands of years ago this star system was an awful lot closer and it has been determined it passed within a mere 52,000 astronomical units…
“The surfaces of stars can be explained as lightning discharges which are observed in the atmosphere of the Earth.”— Charles Edward Rhodes Bruce, 1902–1979 In 1941 C.E.R. Bruce attended a lecture in Edinburgh where he learned of a solar prominence that reached a height of 1 million km in one…
The initial data release from the James Webb Space Telescope caused a worldwide stir within the Standard Model of Cosmology. James Webb images question the beginning of the universe formed by a Big Bang. For instance: the further back in time we look the more galaxies we see; galactic mergers…
Supernova are more energetic and are alleged to leave little or nothing behind unlike a nova. In 2012, Supernova SN 2012Z was spotted in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC1309. The event should have been the final swan song of the star. The galaxy has been observed for a long…
Pulsars are mysterious objects that emit electromagnetic radiation in a clockwork-like fashion. The period of this pulsing can be extremely short such as every 1.33 seconds or a staggering 1.4 milliseconds. The pulsar may simply be no different than a normal star behaving like a malfunctioning electric star. In…
Conventional science says the largest stars are near the end of their life—and will expel vast amounts of material to form a planetary nebula. In an Electric Universe, these stars are deprived of electrons which forces their outer plasma sheath to expand. A planetary nebula is not the remnants…
Our Sun sits in the middle of an enormous void called the local bubble containing million degree, ionised hydrogen gas, surrounded by a wall of colder denser neutral gas. Mainstream astronomers keep describing it as neutral gas deficient rather than simply stating that it is highly ionised. Galaxies are…
Our Solar System is highly unusual and our Sun is a yellow dwarf star—which together with white dwarf stars should be common elsewhere—but instead red dwarf stars are by far the most common stars in the Milky Way by a factor of five. This presents rather an interesting problem…
At the heart of the Milky Way lies a vast bulge and in its core is an object connected to how the galaxy functions. The Standard Model of Cosmology says it’s a massive black hole, although the Electric Universe Model sees it as a plasmoid with intense electric and…
A massive structure recently observed in our galaxy is located about 55,000 light-years away on the other side of the Milky Way. This filament, called Maggie, is just shy of 4,000 light-years long and 130 light-years wide, extending about 1,600 light-years below the galactic plane. The diffuse nature of…
