The Thunderbolts Project’s Chief Science Advisor, Wal Thornhill, gave a critical examination of the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) mission in this re-release of his EU2014 Conference talk presented on Saturday, March 22, 2014. MAVEN launched in November 2013 to explore the Red Planet’s upper atmosphere, ionosphere and…
In this re-release of his EU2013 Conference talk, Gerald H. Pollack, PhD, gave this one-hour presentation about the historical research and recent discovery of the electric charge within water on Saturday, January 5, 2013. We are taught water has three phases: solid, liquid, vapor. In 2003, Dr. Pollack and…
In the beginning, a long time ago, and far, far away there was nothing, which manifested a singularity, which exploded, and over billions of years produced not only our vast material universe, but also life and the entire spectrum of the non-material or spiritual realm. So goes the Big…
Another baffling surprise has been revealed by NASA’s Juno space probe since it entered Jupiter’s orbit in 2016. It’s the discovery of multiple cyclones which appear fixed and unmoving at each of Jupiter’s poles. Nothing in the standard theoretical toolkits of atmospheric and planetary science predicted nor can explain…
Plasma encompasses a larger domain of evidence compared to gravity, and explains more phenomena with a comprehensive and unitary theory. It sees more landscape, more features of that landscape, and more relationships among those features. Gravity, in contrast, sees fewer features and sees them as disparate events, each requiring…
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…
In this re-release of his EU2013 Conference talk, Rupert Sheldrake describes how science is being constricted by assumptions hardened into dogmas—all of reality is material or physical; the world is a machine, made up of inanimate matter; nature is purposeless; consciousness is nothing but the physical activity of the…
In the theoretical sciences, it is commonly assumed that the role of gravity is settled—although acclaimed theoretical physicist Richard Feynman observed, “There is no model of the theory of gravitation today, other than the mathematical form.” The problem is that mathematics will not account for the essential force in…
Interdisciplinary Geometer Buddy James describes how prevalent the torus is on all scales in our modern day world—and—how throughout history this ring-shaped object has been masterfully depicted through art, biology, cymatics, mathematics, philosophy, science, spirituality, and something as simple and delightful as the doughnut.

In 1962, the Mariner II space probe travelling toward Venus detected electrically charged particles moving through interplanetary space. Then the Ulysses solar probe, launched in 1990, discovered the solar wind came in two varieties—an irregular slow flow of 400 km/sec, and a fast one up to 800 km/sec. The…
