Astrophysicists do not study experimental plasma research in graduate school. --Hydra Agent . We must learn to distinguish between the quality of the technical tools that are used and the quality of the scientific conclusions and theories that are being formulated by those who use those tools. Questions and Answers We look at the achievements in these fields of human endeavor and acknowledge them with admiration. This scale would be expressed as 1:6,000,000,000,000. Will this new breed of scientists and engineers,[7] who are waiting in the wings, be called upon to clean things up? The first third of this book is similarly devoted to exposing many of the things that are wrong with the present paradigms of astronomy and cosmology. Zub and Malin turn the volume is up to 11 throughout, from word to page. We need to have an intuitive, conceptual model of how big galaxies are and how far apart they are. Thunderbolts of the Gods by David Talbott and Wallace Thornhill — Chapter 1. The main thrust of this book is that the time is ripe for informed people from outside astrophysics to demand reasonable answers to reasonable questions and to evaluate what the astrophysical theoreticians have been telling us. Are these responses any more believable or satisfying than those that Daddy offered us? G.W. The fruits of technology are real and are testable (do they work?). I hope your journey through these pages will be meaningful, educational, perhaps exciting, and most important of all, eye-opening. It is becoming clear that knowledge acquired in electric plasma laboratories over the last century affords insights and simpler, more elegant, more compelling explanations of most cosmological phenomena than those that are now espoused in astrophysics. The work of Dr. Halton C. Arp on the property of starlight called “redshift” (and the way his work has been received by the astrophysical community) is so closely entwined with the problems of accepted astrophysical theory that we devote an entire chapter to it. ; Hyginus, Fab.

Before getting the learners to do the activity, do it yourself and ensure that it works with the batteries and bulbs available. These are discussed in the fifth and sixth chapters. Let us see how. Their new ideas, in more ways than one, are electrifying the discourse in astrophysics. Thunderbolts of the Gods / by David Talbott and Wallace Thornhill 1. Hannes Alfvén is the central figure in the emerging electric plasma cosmology. Technology and Science What troubled me most was when astrophysicists began saying things about magnetic fields that any of my junior-year students could show were completely incorrect. After detailing these criticisms in the first six chapters, we progress to the main content of this work – a description of the experimentally verified properties of electric plasma, how they pertain to what we see in the sky, and how they avoid the pitfalls we have just examined. On with the show. Recent advances in medicine, communications technology, computers, chemistry, genetics, and information science have made our lives better. The latest stock market report is available to us while we are mountain climbing in Asia. The cosmic thunderbolt ISBN xx xxxx xxxxxx To the scientists and historians of the future In step 2 of the Learning Cycle, learners explore how to construct a simple electric circuit by getting a light bulb to work. People have great confidence in science these days. Professional astronomers judge their success by the degree to which other astronomers believe and accept their ideas. 617ff. 10.1 Rotation and Faraday Motors One of the reasons for the assumption of large amounts of Cryogenic (or Cold) Dark Matter (CDM) in the Gravity Model is to explain the observed rotation of galaxies. So the main goal of this work is to convince you, the reader, that you really do have both the capability and responsibility to make informed, critical judgments about the pronouncements of established scientists. Featured Characters: Thunderbolts Baron Zemo (Heinrich Zemo) Helmut Zemo Erik Josten Karla Sofen Melissa Gold Abner Jenkins Jolt (Hallie Takahama) Fixer (Norbert Ebersol) (First appearance chronologically) Supporting Characters: Namor (Main story and flashback) John Watkins (Death) Mr. Carruthers Robert Takahama Jane Takahama Dr. Leonard Samson Antagonists: Nazis (Only in … Has the astrophysics field kept up to date with the rest of science? [4] This one was called Cosmic Plasma. This is a free pdf download of the Thunderbolts of the Gods book introduction and first chapter. They do not produce results that we, the public, can physically evaluate: They just send up rockets, take pictures of the night sky, write papers, and tell us impressive stories about how it supposedly works and how it supposedly got there. Consequently their methods have not kept up with the science of the Nineteenth Century, let alone the Twenty-First. Preface. A cadre of plasma scientists and engineers, who are presently employed in industry, government labs, and universities – but not in most astronomy departments – is quietly working to modernize cosmology. Popularized versions of their theories are published in Scientific American, Discover, and National Geographic. The roster of the team has changed a great deal over the years. In fact there is more than one scientific method, and we have to be clear about the differences among them. That’s one unit represents six million million units, which is a scale of one to 6 trillion or 1:6×10¹². They produce real and accurate scientific data. Is it making use of all the modern scientific tools, techniques and data that are available? Presently another of our interplanetary probes is on its way to Pluto. In recent years we have read about the “discovery” of black holes, neutron stars, cosmic strings, and such things as dark energy and invisible matter. Thunderbolt 2 is an update to the original Thunderbolt specification and takes the original’s two 10 Gbps bi-directional channels and combines them into a single 20 Gbps bi-directional channel. Why would we want to single out these fields and cast doubt on their results? Among its many activities, The Thunderbolts Project publishes educational books and videos, sponsors meetings and conferences, and produces a comprehensive website featuring the Thunderbolts Picture of the Day , the Essential Guide to the Electric Universe, a public forum and much more. We ought to question whether our trust is as well placed in the untestable pronouncements of astrophysicists as it is in the work of the engineers and technicians who give those scientists the tools they use. Therefore, 1 gigametre is 1 000 000 000 metres. Th. Electromagnetic forces between electrical charges are many orders of magnitude stronger than Newton’s gravitational force, and we are finding that deep space is filled with electrical charges and magnetic energy. “Electric Universe”, the incredible seven part series from Gaia, offers a limited time opportunity to view the fourth episode absolutely free.Wal Thornhill and Ev Cochrane delve into ancient tales of a goddess with disheveled hair or a head full of snakes that may explain a massive change to our solar system as a new heavenly body joined it.Scroll down to mid-page, center video and watch for FREE Episode 4: “The Birth of Venus”. Before we buy into any new way of looking at the cosmos, we need to ask, “What’s wrong with the old way?” To answer this, we must establish some fundamental guidelines about how a true science discovers knowledge. ód’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’SÿÐód’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’R’I$”¤’I%)$’IJI$’SÿÑód”œ×4–¸A梒”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)I$’JRI$’”’I$¥$’I)ÿÒórILºÓ¾©Àž­h=ÇÙÏ÷¥û;êŸþ[Ûÿ °çûÔy‡îåÿ §üûg¼Æ. [4] Other books by Alfvén (1908-1995) are: On the Origin of the Solar System (1954); Atom, Man and the Universe (1964); Worlds – Antiworlds: Anitimatter in Cosmology (1966); The Great Computer: A Vision (1968); Living on the Third Planet (1972); Evolution of the Solar System (with G. Arrhenius) (1976). This book is like a portal back to the height of '90s comic storytelling. Chapter 1 6, Dec. 1986. Thus, lacking these fundamental electrical concepts, cosmologists have charged into a mind-numbing mathematical cul de sac, creating on the way a tribe of invisible entities – some of which are demonstrably impossible. 493ff., who, however, says nothing about the agency of Metis in administering an emetic, but attributes the stratagem to Earth （Gaia）.. 2 As to the war of Zeus on the Titans, see Hes. Thunderbolts Classic, vol. Featured Characters: Thunderbolts Citizen V (Helmut Zemo) Meteorite (Karla Sofen) Mach-1 (Abe Jenkins) Songbird (Mel Gold) Atlas (Erik Josten) Techno (Bert Ebersol) Jolt (Hallie Takahama) Supporting Characters: S.H.I.E.L.D. This edit will also create new pages on Comic Vine for: Beware, you are proposing to add brand new pages to the wiki along with your edits. [2] “Double Layers and Circuits in Astrophysics,” Hannes Alfvén, IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science, Vol. [3] The fundamental mathematical relationships upon which all of mankind’s electrical knowledge is based. I have tried to hack a path through these hypotheses, contradictions, and alternative explanations that will be clear and understandable for the average interested reader to follow. Even though my life-long avocation has been amateur astronomy, my formal background is in engineering – not astronomy or cosmology. Plasma and electricity in space 2. The average informed person can understand and make rational judgments about these ideas. The Marvel Universe enters the Heroic Age - and the Thunderbolts program gets a much-needed facelift with a new setting, a new lineup and a new tough-as-nails boss man! So far, most astrophysicists have completely ignored them. Can you make sense out of press releases and TV programs that attempt to explain the newest astronomical “discoveries” – things like invisible dark energy, warped 11-dimensional spaces, and black holes that spit out matter? In recent years we have read about the “discovery” of black holes, neutron stars, cosmic strings, and such things as dark energy and invisible matter. 1 kilometre is 1000 metres. So how can these researchers judge the correctness of their conclusions without considering a range of possible explanations that are based on different assumptions? The cosmos in fact does not contain the mysteriously undetectable entities that present astrophysical theories require. This is one of the questions the first few chapters will address. ; Hor. All it requires is the time and patience to read and to think logically and critically about the issues. Plasma phenomena in ancient times 3. A blonde bombshell, an Asian kid, a big farmboy, a skinny chick and another guy-- they can't exactly hide in a place like this! Chapter 6, “Clusters of Galaxies,” presented his finding that the clusters were low-luminosity high-redshift—and nearby—“star piles.” New surgical procedures, hospital techniques, instrumentation, and medicines are saving, prolonging, and improving the quality of our lives. The same question can be raised about the archeologists: They dig holes around the world, they look at bones and shards, they write papers, and they tell impressive stories about mankind’s history. Collects Thunderbolts #144-147 And Material From Enter The Heroic Age #1. Some basic facts and a few new concepts will suffice. We will then take a close look at some of the obviously electrical properties of our Sun, the solar system, the stars, and our galaxy. 3.4.42ff. The behavior of these plasma clouds is scalable, that is to say, giant cosmic plasmas behave in much the same way (obey the same physical laws) that small laboratory plasmas do here on Earth. There are basic requirements and inherent limitations involved in the scientific method with which we must be familiar. Some bulbs might need a battery of more than 1.5 V. But today, if you are an engineer who designs a bridge that falls down or a cell phone that does not receive a signal, your failures will quickly be embarrassingly obvious to all. There is an important difference between science and technology. Bridge Agent Sayer Dallas Riordan Villains: Elements of Doom Arsenic (First appearance) Barium (First appearance) Cadmium (First appearance) Carbon (First … It was when astrophysicists began saying things that I, as an electrical engineer, knew were wrong that I began to have serious doubts about their pronouncements. Anyone interested in astrophysics needs to become aware of the properties of the electric plasma that fills more than 99% of the universe. The images and data that are retrieved from them are stunning in clarity and precise in detail. Origins of mythology and symbolism 4. Still Seeing Red – The Thunderbolts Project™ Fourteen years ago, Halton Arp published Seeing Red. In order to make informed judgments about how stars can affect each other (or possibly collide), we need to have a sense of how far they are from each other. They are offering simpler, verifiable explanations about the makeup and functioning of the cosmos. None of us was told that the stars worked electrically. Featured Characters: Thunderbolts Atlas (Erik Josten) Citizen V (Helmut Zemo) Mach-1 (Abe Jenkins) Meteorite (Karla Sofen) Songbird (Mel Gold) Techno (Bert Ebersol) Supporting Characters: Dallas Riordan (First appearance) Hallie Takahama (First appearance) WJBP-TV Megan McLaren (First appearance) Kenny (First appearance) Villains: Rat Pack (First appearance) Number One (First … “These scientists, doctors and engineers really know what they are doing.”. All our space probes that have been equipped to detect separated electrical charges –electric plasma – have found it, lots of it. Way received the Xeric Foundation's Xeric Grant in 2000 for his first publication, Violent Lifestyle #1. [2] They rarely take any courses that discuss Maxwell’s equations[3] and electromagnetic field theory. The discipline of electric plasma physics – which until lately has been outside the realm of astronomy – is quickly displacing many of the outmoded theories of traditional cosmology and astrophysics. No wonder they do not understand that many cosmic phenomena are due to forces other than gravity, fluid flow, and the magnetism of lodestones. Through Violent Lifestyle, Way was introduced to Marvel Comics editor Axel Alonso, where he has gone on to become one of their most prolific writers. The Electric Universe by Wallace Thornhill and David Talbott — Chapter 1. Chapter 1- Meet the Thunderbolts. But on-going discoveries about how electric plasma behaves in space are relentlessly forcing dramatic changes in the way we view the universe. But they are basically electrical in nature, and their observed properties can truly be understood only from an electrical viewpoint. Thunderbolts of the Gods by David Talbott and Wallace Thornhill is the classic introduction to the Thunderbolts Project version of the Electric Universe theory – the unofficial official EU theory. ÇÿÚ ? If astrophysicists were saying things that were demonstrably wrong in my area of expertise, could it be that they were making similar mistakes in their own field as well? Everyone knew the stars were not electric lights. 1 million kilometres is known as 1 gigametre (Gm). Beginning in chapter 7, with a sequence of scientists and discoveries that have led to our basic understanding of electric plasma, we start to see that the sky is indeed highly electrical in nature. Finally, we will attempt to answer the question, “So what?” Why is it important that the average person knows about what is going on now with science in general and with astrophysics in particular? And yet astrophysicists seem to be intent on ignoring them. [5] Cosmic Plasma, by H. Alfvén, D. Reidel Pub., 1981. We have digital devices we can put in our pockets that hold 6000 books, more than most people read in a lifetime. The only way we can judge the scientific output of astrophysics is to ask: Is there a better way of looking at the cosmos that answers our questions in a simpler, more straightforward way – one that does not require hypothetical entities and counterintuitive notions? Th. Modern, straightforward explanations of all the phenomena astronomers find so enigmatic are now available to us. Burnham set the scale in his model so that 1 inch (1″) equals 1 AU or 93 million miles. They are mentioned here only for completeness – to point out that both these branches of science have difficulties similar to astrophysics. Plasma physicists know that 96% of the universe is not made up of “invisible matter” but rather of matter in the plasma state. The complicated maze that astrophysics has become in the last few years is a direct result of years of ignoring Alfvén’s work and his advice. I began to investigate more of the pronouncements of modern astrophysicists and the reasoning behind them. Appearing in "A Rare Night Off" Featured Characters: Thunderbolts. Four deep-space probes are now near the outer limits of our Sun’s reach – the heliopause. There's a new sheriff in town: Luke Cage! Also see http://plasmauniverse.info [site no longer working – DS]. This roster list is of the members during the team's history. Ours really is an Electric Sky. And they claim that 96% of the material in the entire universe is invisible. Earning a doctorate in electrical engineering eventually led to my teaching that subject at a major university for thirty-nine years. A paradigm based on electric plasma, which does not find new discoveries to be enigmatic and puzzling but instead to be predictable and consistent, is slowly but surely gaining ground. We originally produced a simple weekly newsletter but upgraded it in 2013: Subscribe to the newsletter They say that in the cores of galaxies, monstrous invisible Black Holes suck in everything around them, even light – but that “little black holes” spit jets of matter back out. The answer is because there are no tangible, usable products from which we can judge the validity of theories emanating from sciences that deal with events that happened long, long ago and far, far away. How do they cope with it? Alfvén’s Warning The stream of increasingly bizarre pronouncements coming from astronomers and cosmologists has recently encountered a serious challenge. The time to search for some realistic, intelligent, scientific answers has arrived. Or will the incomprehensible fog of black holes, dark energy, magically unobservable matter, and other fanciful fictions be allowed to continue to shroud our true understanding of the cosmos? Even so, until recently, I assumed that astronomers and astrophysicists knew what they were talking about. Dr. Michael Clarage: Our Universe — It’s Electric! Unlike other countries, Russia had managed to avoid some of the rather bizarre events of the last few years.
