Plasma Cosmology - Electric Universe

Migrated topic.

In an endless search for new ideas to help explain what the hell everything is all about since the answers we currently have are woefully inadequate, I came across this idea and conception of the universe.

Plasma Cosmology contends that the universe is made up from vast streams of plasma interacting with one another. That the solid/liquid/gas states of matter are cooled plasma, rather than plasma being heated "matter". These enormous filiments either attact or repulse, and can interact to create the common form of a spiral galaxy. Since the electomagnetic force is 10^39 stronger than gravity, there is no need for dark matter or dark energy. No need for a big bang in fact.

It completely changes the way we think about stars, for they become powered by galactic electrical currents rather than by internal fusion:

Stars shine because they are connected to electric circuitry within galaxies. An electric star's brightness thus depends on the power of the electric current feeding it, not on the amount of nuclear fuel available to burn.

Stars thus behave as electrodes in a galactic glow discharge. The many surface phenomena that can be seen on the Sun -- hot corona, sunspots, prominences, flares, et al -- can all be explained by an electric Sun, but are more difficult to understand from a nuclear point of view. Nuclear reactions take place on the surface, not in the core, perhaps explaining why neutrino numbers vary with sunspot cycles, and these reactions are almost certainly produced in the same way that we produce them in the lab -- by accelerating particles in an electric field.


Definately worth a look into. They compellingly explain some of the mysteries of current cosmological thinking, while helping to explain what we actually see in a simpler more cohesive manner. It would definately be a paradigm shift...
