A picture and essay from the perspective of the Electric Universe.
Sep 8, 2015 Enceladus shares characteristics with comets. Proponents of mainstream viewpoints are slowly beginning to realize that asteroids and comets exist in a continuum: neither are strictly identical nor completely different from the other. For example, when the Stardust mission returned to Earth with samples from the coma of…
Sep 7, 2015 That mythology has an appetite for bizarre imagery is hardly a secret. A remarkable motif in the world’s creation myths, rarely even recognised, is that of the ‘edible sky’. A few examples will suffice to give a flavour of the theme. A 19th-century Greek myth concerning…
Sep 4, 2015 It is an electronic Sun. Various components coupled to and driven by electric circuits in space comprise the heart of Electric Universe theory. Charged particles accelerating through powerful electric fields radiate energy in many bandwidths. Glowing, braided filaments are sometimes visible in “jets” that blast out…
Sep 03, 2015 Wind does not blow through the cosmos. According to a recent press release, “winds” from a supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the center of galaxy PDS 456 are distorting the shape of the galactic structure. An electric current in plasma generates a magnetic field that will constrict…
Sep 2, 2015 Scholarly discourse on the significance of creation myths seems as lacklustre today as ever. Scores of recurrent themes remain undiscovered or unexplored – mostly buried in dust-gathering reams on forlorn library shelves or in scanned digital books seldom downloaded. This is deplorable, because diligent compilation and…
Sep 1, 2015 Do convection currents and vibrating magnetic field lines create the dynamic phenomena observed on the Sun? In the electric model of stars, the Sun is a positively charged electrode in a circuit, while the negatively charged electrode is located far beyond the planetary orbits. The “virtual cathode”…
Aug 31, 2015 Decisions, Decisions: A Choice Not an Echo Editor’s note: This is the last installment of Mel Acheson’s epistemological treatise, originally meant to be a presentation at a Thunderbolts conference in 2009. Leon Rosenfeld, a coworker of Neils Bohr, commented that a model is not “sufficiently defined…
Aug 28, 2105 Massive electric weather phenomena. Previous Picture of the Day articles describe Earth as an electrically charged object: it maintains an electric field at its surface of between 50 and 200 volts per meter. In other words, for every meter of altitude the voltage increases. Electromagnetic fields…
Aug 27, 2015 Fusion reactions from deep in the core are said to drive the Sun. “I am aware that many critics consider the stars are not hot enough. The critics lay themselves open to an obvious retort; we tell them to go and find a hotter place.” — Arthur…
Aug 26, 2015 Another electrically powered nebula. The standard model of star formation proposes that new stars result from compression waves passing through clouds of dust and gas. It is thought that supernovae explosions from elsewhere in the galaxy push nebulae into a star making process based on gravitational…
