Jan 20, 2015 Gravity wave detection is kaput. Previous Picture of the Day articles take issue with computer models versus observational evidence. In the Electric Universe paradigm, laboratory experiments requiring relatively inexpensive equipment can be conducted and compared to the theory. Since electricity’s effects are scaleable by many orders of…
Jan 19, 2015 Io’s caldera continue to puzzle scientists. Previous Pictures of the Day discuss several confirmed predictions about electrical activity on Io, notably, the intense electric arcing between the moon and its parent body, Jupiter. Images of Io verify that Io ought to be considered from an electric…
Jan 15, 2015 Electrically active objects dominate the Solar System Small planetoids, called Near Earth Objects (NEO), are a concern for space scientists because it is thought that large rocks might strike our planet with devastating force. It is a commonly held belief that such an object caused the…
Jan 14, 2015 Consensus black hole theory called into question again. “The largest X-ray flare ever detected from the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy” was recently announced by the Chandra X-ray Telescope observation team. According to the report, the extreme energy calls into…
Jan 13, 2015 Sunspot activity has dramatically increased. The Sun exhibits a solar cycle that lasts approximately 22 years, oscillating in output strength and the number of sunspots visible across its surface. This last 11 year period, when the number of sunspots was expected to increase, there was a “delay”;…
Jan 12, 2015 One of the Mars Exploration Rovers is still going strong. Recently, the Opportunity rover on Mars focused its camera on a grand vista from the summit of Cape Tribulation at the highest point of Endeavor crater’s rim—a view extending for more than 40 kilometers. Considering that…
Jan 7, 2015 Evidence for the dust cloud came from a gradual drop on either side of Rhea in the number of electrons detected by two of Cassini’s instruments. Scientists from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California discovered a “debris ring” surrounding Saturn’s frigid moon, Rhea. The Cassini…
Jan 5, 2015 China’a lunar mission was a success. Does new data confirm the Electric Universe theory? On December 2, 2013, the China National Space Administration launched Chang’e 3, a robotic lander with an accompanying rover, on a mission to study the Moon. The lander was named after the…
Dec 30, 2014 The Sun influences all the planets. Jupiter is the largest planet in the Solar System. It is so massive, that it is greater than all the other planets and moons combined. Jupiter is 142,984 kilometers in diameter at its equator, but it rotates so fast its day…
Dec 29, 2014 Mars is probably the most intensively studied celestial body. Not even the Moon has been examined in so many ways. One of the most important questions about other planets is whether water is present in any significant amount. Since water sustains Earth’s ecology, it is presumed…
