The electric currents that connect the gas giants Saturn and Jupiter to their respective moons are now recognized in the scientific literature. However, like the spectacular electromagnetic cosmic jets seen exploding from active galactic nuclei, space scientists heretofore have always proposed that the electric currents are the result of strange…
In this Discourse, we pause to review ground previously covered, with an emphasis on predictive ability. How well does the proposed history of the Polar Configuration predict and explain the multitude of mythic archetypes? Among the many dozens of archetypes we’ve reviewed in recent years, how many would be expected…
A new paper published in the Journal Nature Astronomy offers a further breakthrough for proponents of planetary catastrophe. The study suggests that the large majority of asteroids in the inner asteroid belt are pieces of 5 annihilated worlds, called planetesimals. The clue the team followed was the unusual inclined or…
: Bruce Leybourne’s presentation will examine the geometries of Earth’s electrical stellar transformer circuits. Both statistical data and geometric correlations suggest geophysical relationships between lightning and earthquakes. The basic “Delta-Y” electrical circuit geometry of the tetrahedron “fire element” is expanded to a little known geometric form that unifies the five…
: The accepted description of reality in astronomy asserts that only the law of gravity applies in space. Yet nearly every discovery of the space age, from the Van Allen radiation belts around the Earth to the high-velocity winds around Neptune, has been announced as a surprise. And the surprises…
: Scientists on Earth are again being reminded of the awesome power of dust storms on Mars. The first stirrings of what has become a globe-encompassing phenomenon began on June 17, when a dust storm touched down on the famous Gale Crater. For many years, the Thunderbolts Project has offered…
: A scientific paper published this year in Nature Astronomy deepens the many mysteries that the planet Venus presents. The authors were surprised to find chaotic cloud movements on the night-side of Venus’s super-rotating upper atmosphere. The greatest surprise was the discovery of distinct filamentary structures in clouds which appear…
: Here we take up the widespread ancient link between sacred cities and creation mythology. Historical evidence suggests that both themes arose as reflections of celestial events yet to be recognized. But what did the ancient myth-makers mean by the ideal “land” or “city,” celebrated as their own place of…
: Astrophysicists today are resorting to new conjectures to try to preserve the big bang story. The latest irreconcilable data comes from scientists’ attempt to analyze the so-called Cosmic Dawn, a period about 200 million years after the Universe’s hypothetical beginning when the earliest stars are thought to have started…
: One of the most puzzling cometary phenomena is the spectacular, collimated jets seen exploding at tremendous velocities from comet nuclei. Standard comet theory states that the jets erupt due to sublimating volatiles and trapped gases that explode from underneath the comet’s surface. But this strange vision of comet jets…
