A variety of editorial commentaries by in-house and guest contributors.
History of Electric Comet Theory: Part 2 By Hannes Täger Ph.D. General knowledge and understanding of electricity progressed at an exponential rate in the late 18th century as electricity increasingly offered new and feasible explanations for hitherto mysterious natural phenomena. Scientists across Europe and the World wrote a vast number…
History of Electric Comet Theory: An Introduction By Hannes Täger Ph.D. Significant scientific hypotheses and theories asserting the electrical nature of comets have been proposed and explored for at least 250 years. Many natural philosophers, physicists, and astronomers believed that the characteristic physical and light phenomena of comets were fundamentally…
Tornado — The Electric Model By Andrew Hall Cold, Dusty Plasma… Previously, in Nature’s Electrode, we looked at an Electric Earth model for lightning genesis driven by a plasma corona formed from condensing and freezing water vapor in the central updraft of the thunderhead. We also looked at the thunderstorm…
The Summer Thermopile By Andrew Hall In a previous episode, we talked about Nature’s Electrode. . . how a cold plasma corona is the proper electronic model for lightning genesis, and how mechanisms for ionization in a thunderstorm work. Now let’s take in the bigger picture to get a more coherent…
Nature’s Electrode By Andrew Hall The image above is from NOAA and illustrates the consensus theory of lightning genesis. As you can see, it shows electrons collecting like marbles in a sink, accelerating down a slippery slope into what looks like a drain. A typical cloud-to-ground lightning needs a billion-trillion…
The Maars of Pinacate, Part Two By Andrew Hall If lightning can occur in the sky, why not in the ground? A capacitor stores electrical charge up to a point, and then lets go, like a dam breaking. It’s called dielectric breakdown, and sparks are the result; sparks are the…
The Maars of Pinacate, Part One By Andrew Hall El Pinacate y Gran Desierto de Altar is a geologic wonderland for volcanologists. It should also be a laboratory for study of the Electric Earth. Pinacate is a monogenic volcanic field in Sonora, Mexico that lies just south of the Arizona…
The Monocline By Andrew Hall In previous Thunderblogs, we discussed evidence of electromagnetic and hydrodynamic forces that shaped the landscape with arcing currents in an atmospheric surface conductive path. We theorized these currents sent bolides of plasma jetting through the atmosphere, blow-torching the ground below into craters and mountainous blisters,…
If you’re downunder and want to know more about the Electric Universe, don’t miss this upcoming event. ASTRO SA (Alternative Science and Technology Research Organisation of South Australia) are hosting a two day information-packed event featuring Wal Thornhill, in Adelaide. It starts on Friday October 14th from 8:30pm with an…
Paradigm Shift By Ghada Chehade There’s a shift, there’s a shift; there’s a paradigm shift An awakening is upon us… An undoing of the rift… No need for stories that cannot last. And for unexplained mysteries This is a remembering of our past…and our cosmic his-to-ry… So open your eyes…
