A picture and essay from the perspective of the Electric Universe.
Aug 6, 2018 Electricity flowing into and out of the Sun can sometimes release plasma discharges called solar flares. Consensus astrophysicists think that solar flares are caused by magnetic loops “reconnecting” with each other. The so-called “magnetic energy” short circuit is thought to accelerate gases into space. Magnetic reconnection is…
Aug 3, 2018 If the Universe is based on the prevailing theories of Einstein, and gravity is bending time and space around all objects, then dark matter and dark energy are merely illusions. “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” — U.S. President, Ronald Reagan Modern astronomers think that all galaxies…
Aug 2, 2018 Oxygen is abundant in the Universe. Previous Picture of the Day articles point out that planetary nebulae radiate in light frequencies associated with ionized oxygen. Since oxygen is the most common element in galactic structures, after hydrogen and helium, it is not surprising that a remote…
Aug 1, 2018 Galaxies exhibit electric circuits. “A broad and ample road, whose dust is gold, And pavement stars—as starts to thee appear Soon in the galaxy, that milky way Which nightly as a circling zone thou seest Powder’d with stars.” ― John Milton Astronomers cannot see stars (or galaxies)…
Jul 31, 2018 The brightest objects in the Universe are electrical. A previous Picture of the Day discussed the twin lobes of gamma rays extending beyond the Milky Way’s central bulge. The funnel-like formations are each about 65,000 light-years in diameter, and are considered by Electric Universe advocates to…
Jul 30, 2018 Goddess-like beauty scarred forever. There are indications that Venus underwent a catastrophic event (or events) sometime in the recent past. Giant cracks extend for hundreds of kilometers, for example. Those fractures are accompanied by “coronae”, with deep channels branching out like carved lightning bolts. Vast caldera with…
Jul 27, 2018 Gravity is given far too much influence. Almost all galaxies are said to harbor one or more black holes. Since matter is supposed to spin around a black hole at extreme velocities, consensus opinions state that it heats up from friction, generating X-rays and ultraviolet light. It…
Jul 26, 2018 Why are stars most often seen in pairs? More than half of all stars observed in the Milky Way have one or more companions, suggesting that something, at least in our galaxy, influences the formation of multiple star systems. Stars are so remote from each other…
Jul 25, 2018 Stars are electrically charged. From an early age, children are taught that stars are burning balls of hydrogen gas. Also, that gravitational attraction from a star like the Sun is what holds the planets in their orbits. Fusion fire in their cores is said to take a…
Jul 24, 2018 Electromagnetism drives the cosmos. NASA launched the Herschel Space Observatory into orbit around LaGrange point L2 on May 14, 2009. Since Herschel used liquid helium-cooled infrared detectors built to last about three years, its mission came to an end on April 29, 2013. Herschel’s primary mission…
