NASA’s IBEX and Voyager 1 missions have shattered all conventional ideas about the heliospheric boundary, the region separating our solar system from interstellar space. In 2009, the IBEX spacecraft created the first all-sky map of the boundary revealing an astonishing ribbon of energetic neutral atoms. According to scientists, it’s still…
Listen as mathematician Stephen Crothers tells us why not much has changed since Stephen Hawking’s recent “revelation” in his 4-page paper in Nature. Crothers will be a featured speaker at the upcoming Electric Universe 2014 Conference : All About Evidence, March 20-24 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. For more information, click…

Solar physicists around the world today are wondering: has the Sun fallen silent? In 2013, the Sun began the peak phase of its 11-year sun spot cycle called the Solar Maximum when sun spot production should be at its highest. However, the lack of sun spot activity has left solar…

We continue the discussion of late Dr. Halton Arp’s contributions to science and astronomy, this time with an explanation of redshift.
On December 28, 2013, the acclaimed astronomer Halton Arp passed away at the age of 86 in Munich, Germany. Dr. Arp posed a challenge to the very foundation of modern cosmology; a challenge that grows only more relevant with new and astonishing discoveries in the cosmos. We present Wal Thornhill…
For context, see “The Electric Comet | Full Documentary”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34wtt2… This added segment addresses the strongest critical comment we’ve received on the documentary: we failed to mention the infrared readings of “water” in the Deep Impact ejecta. As usually happens on matters of good criticism, it proved to be invaluable,…
Physicist Wal Thornhill will give two thought-provoking presentations at EU2014 Conference: All About Evidence, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA, March 20 – 24, 2014. For more information see https://www.thunderbolts.info/wp/2013/… Here, Wal continues his discussion of the growing confusion in theoretical physics. While sensational news headlines sometimes laud definitive breakthroughs such as the…
