A picture and essay from the perspective of the Electric Universe.
April 20, 2020 A visit to Saturn might require not only a spacesuit, but one that is armored against hard radiation. Not all light frequencies are harmless. Everyone knows that looking directly into an arc welder should be avoided, since the plasma is so hot that it emits extreme ultraviolet…
April 17, 2020 In an Electric Universe, the answer is not what is commonly presented in science journals. Astronomers are fitted with spectacles that can see distances only in terms of redshift when dealing with celestial bodies father away than a few light-years. Measurements become more and more unreliable as…
April 16, 2020 What are magnetars? As conventional understanding suggests, neutron stars are created when massive stars collapse at the end of their life cycles. Gravity in those stars is said to be is so intense that they cannot resist the collapse, so electrons are squeezed into the nuclei that…
April 15, 2020 Halton Christian “Chip” Arp (March 21, 1927 – December 28, 2013) When our son was 2 and 3 and 4, he liked to climb up on high objects-the table, the refrigerator, the roof-and jump into our arms. When we weren’t available to “play catch”, he would climb…
April 14, 2020 Gamma-rays from electric particle accelerators in space. Gamma-rays are the highest energy wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum, according to physicists. They are “electromagnetic particles” called photons. Since matter is thought to exist as both waves and particles, and photons are a class of particle called “bosons”, they…
April 13, 2020 More proof that the Sun is an electric star. One of the goals for the Picture of the Day is to demonstrate how Electric Universe theory about plasma discharge behavior is a better model for solar activity than conventional theories. Experiments with a positively charged sphere reveal that…
April 10, 2020 Most interplanetary dust is thought to be “recycled”. In other words, it is the material out of which the Solar System was made. According to astrophysicists, in earlier epochs, as well as today, the Solar System’s most common element was hydrogen, with magnesium, silicon, and iron composing…
April 9, 2020 Plasma is electrically ionized. In plasmas, thermal and other energy sources strip electrons from atomic nuclei. When excess charge develops in various regions, due to gravity or other influences, electric discharges can take place, forming electromagnetic sheaths along the discharge axes. If there is enough charge flow,…
April 8, 2020 Another relativistic jet attributed to a black hole. “A professional tends to interpret the pictures by using the theory he was taught while the amateur tries to use the picture to arrive at a theory.”— Halton Arp According to a recent press release, collimated jets erupting from…
April 7, 2020 According to a recent press release, astronomers detected a warped dust ring around a presumed protoplanetary disk in the Taurus Molecular Cloud, located about 450 light years away. A previous Picture of the Day discussed the warped ring of material surrounding the nucleus of Galaxy Centaurus A….
