Our planet’s polar wind patterns are driven from the outside and not by any surface or internal Earthbound processes or “dynamos”. The main outside source of these polar winds is quite obviously the varying strength and direction of the Birkeland Current stream of electrically charged particles that it delivers…
Second episode in a seven-arc series on the art of creative thinking. Knowledge tends to progress incrementally for long periods as popular theories are developed and adjusted to fit discrepant evidence. Eventually, entirely fresh foundational ideas become necessary. To explain new evidence, the gravity-and-gas theories are patched with hypothetical,…
Does the Lamat symbol depict a grand conjunction between Venus and Mars when the two planets were briefly aligned along a shared polar axis? The electrical discharge events that characterized this union would have been a memorable and dangerous chapter in Earth history. Comparative mythologist Ev Cochrane studies the…
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…
Second of a two-episode arc to explore current and future models of cosmology. We take a deep look at the distinctions between the Standard Model and the Electric Universe Model, evaluating the differences in worldview and how mainstream cosmology responds to new ideas. Accredited discourse analyst, Ghada Chehade, PhD,…
First of a two-episode arc to explore current and future models of cosmology. Given the current crisis in the Standard Model of Cosmology—plagued by mounting anomalies and contradictions this model cannot resolve—it is no longer a reliable guide to problem-solving. Eventually it will be replaced by a different model…
A predictive milestone for the electric comet model. In her November 2021 doctoral thesis, Sofia Bergman, PhD student at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics, used SPIS (Spacecraft Plasma Interaction Software) to measure low-energy ions around Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. A large amount of positive ions were measured flowing inward towards…
First episode in a seven-arc series on the art of creative thinking. Science is in the midst of an accelerated changing of paradigms—a set of metaphysical assumptions or a worldview by which all subsequent observations and reasonings are interpreted. Physics is what we think about—metaphysics is how we think…
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…
For well over half a century, most astronomers have assumed that the Moon’s heavily cratered surface is a result of periodic impacts over countless eons of time. However, a new scientific foundation exists for a radical reassessment of almost everything mainstream science believe about the Moon’s origins and history….
