Earlier this year we extended an invitation to “skeptic” Michael Shermer, a Scientific American columnist, to speak at our EU2015 conference held in Phoenix Arizona June 25-29. We did so in confidence that Shermer would provide Scientific American with a retrospective on the Electric Universe gathering. He endorsed the idea…
Building on the past year of experimentation and analysis, the SAFIRE Project is moving into Phase 2, which takes the lessons from the Phase 1 Proof of Concept Prototype into a much larger chamber. Phase 1 ended on a cliff-hanger with indications of fusion and transient million-fold CME-like eruptions. Montgomery…
Scientists working at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory are proposing a radical new theory about the nature of invisible, theoretical dark matter particles. The scientists have developed what they call a “stealth dark matter” model, which suggests that dark matter is composed of electrically charged particles and which are bound…
Today, we begin a series of reports that will discuss the latest scientific papers on the European Space Agency’s Rosetta mission to comet 67P. In addition to countless unresolved puzzles facing comet scientists, we have discussed in previous episodes the problem of comet’s double-lobed shape. Indeed, that particular form of…
Stephen Smith is the managing editor and principal writer for the Thunderbolts Picture of the Day (TPOD) feature. His archive contains over 1000 articles about nearly every topic addressed by the Electric Universe movement. Based on a 40-year interest in the electrical nature of the cosmos, his work reflects the…
At the EU2015 conference this past June, the well known “skeptic” Michael Shermer participated in a panel discussion on the topic, “When Radical Ideas Challenge Conventional Science.” Wal Thornhill and I also participated, along with Dr. Gary Schwartz of the University of Arizona. Subsequently, Dr. Shermer’s dismissive review of the…
In the previous Space News episode, we discussed recent, astonishing images of the surface of the dwarf planet Pluto. Many other surprises have already been revealed in the data thus far released from NASA’s New Horizons mission. Today, physicist Eugene Bagashov discusses what we have learned thus far about Pluto’s…
NASA’s New Horizons mission to the dwarf planet Pluto continues to provide planetary scientists with new challenges and deepening mysteries. Likewise, the Rosetta mission to Comet 67P has revealed startling cometary phenomena that conventional theory cannot begin to explain. See the Thunderblog below for the text of this Space News….
Physicist Wal Thornhill continues his discussion of some of the foundational theories of modern physics and cosmology. As Thornhill explains, the aesthetics of mathematical theories may often have little or no relationship to physical reality. JOIN US ON PATREON AND WATCH OUR INFLUENCE GROW: “Changing the world through understanding of…
A new scientific experiment has reportedly confirmed one of the most startling concepts in quantum theory — so-called “spooky action at a distance,” or the discovery that simply measuring one object appears to affect another far away object. Today, physicist Wal Thornhill begins the first of a two-part discussion on…
