    [MOVED] Paper by SAFIRE describing their experiments

    For people's information, the SAFIRE project abandoned being science a couple of years ago. It is now a cold fusion touting business looking for investors. The project was based on abysmal ignorance of astrophysics. The electric sun it failed to test is the idea that the Sun is externally...

    An example of the failure of Plasma Cosmology

    That brings up a couple of more points about Scott's "solution" to Olbers’ paradox. The classical paradox is not only about naked eyes. Kepler, etc. had telescopes. The paradox applies to all astronomical observations. Look at the night sky or point a telescope at night sky and it should be...

    And what about Milky Way groups of stars visible with the naked eye? Double Cluster

    Dealing with Creationism in Astronomy! (Moved)

    No one believes that climate change "will do us in" or that the atmosphere will burn up or that global warming will end human life on Earth. If our heating of the atmosphere continues, it will gain a few degrees by 2100 and will not kill off everyone. There will be people dying because global...

    An example of the failure of Plasma Cosmology

    "No Paradox in the Plasma Universe" is wrong. We were not limited to his "only if we are limited observing the universe in visible light" in February 1992. The Hubble Space Telescope observing in UV, visible and IR was launched in 1990. We had space telescopes looking outside of the visible...

    An example of the failure of Plasma Cosmology

    The Grand Poobah at EU HQ with an undergraduate degree in physics has much more bizarre "models" than that. Wal Thornhill has written an article this year that makes the EU an obvious fantasy. The Electric Universe Heresy It is actually "set aside the real universe" because Thornhill has done...

    An example of the failure of Plasma Cosmology

    There is a more fundamental issue with these papers. The computer simulations produce 'spiral galaxies' that have no plasma between their arms. There are not spiral galaxies which have plasma and stars between their arms! The numbers I have seen is that the mass density between arms is ~80% of...

    The Universe Is Connected by Giant Structures - Birkeland Currents

    That looks like an artistic rendition of a supermassive black hole, maybe powering a quasar which is what the paper in this thread analyzes. That brings up another issue with this thread. The electric universe people tend to deny that actual black holes of any size exist! They rather believe in...

    Earth May Have Been A Waterworld

    A couple of errors, jamesbond007. A singularity is not a particle. The textbook physics is that a singularity is where the laws of physics break down. A singularity of infinite density and temperature at t = 0 in cosmology means that current physics cannot be applied there. Thus the Big Bang...

    The Universe Is Connected by Giant Structures - Birkeland Currents

    There are no galaxies connected by rotating filaments in the first quote. There’s Growing Evidence That the Universe Is Connected by Giant Structures What is very slowly rotating in a counter-clockwise direction is the large-scale structure in which the synchronized galaxies may be embedded...

    The Universe Is Connected by Giant Structures - Birkeland Currents

    Unfortunately Birkeland currents are not mentioned in the cited article. There’s Growing Evidence That the Universe Is Connected by Giant Structures What Birkeland currents are means they cannot cause these structures. Birkeland currents happen around planets with their planetary magnetic...

    Proof of the Constancy of the Speed of Light

    That is textbook physics that defines c and involves 2 other quantities defined as constants. A definition is not a proof (which do not exist in physics). The empirical evidence is that the speed of light in vacuum is constant. This thread can be replaced by the link Electromagnetic wave...

    Neutron Repulsion Confirmed In The Lab By MIT

    Some good science and then a reference to a crackpot. Dr. Oliver Manuel believes that the Sun contains a neutron star! It does not take much knowledge about neutron stars to see that the idea is stupid. Neutron stars have enormous gravity on their surface that causes fusion - the Sun explodes...

    Levels of EvC belief

    This seems to be the misconception that the Big Bang is that the universe came from nothing at all. The Big Bang is what happens when we apply the laws of physics to the existing universe and run time backward. We end up with a universe starting in a very hot, dense state. Before that is a...

    Multiverse Theory and multiple Ezekiel 37 type events.

    Irrelevant. Where the actual documents which anyone could make available, DennisTate?

    Multiverse Theory and multiple Ezekiel 37 type events.

    You suggest that Dean Braxton and CBN are so insanely ignorant that they do not know about the Internet even when they have a Facebook page and post videos on it :p! No one has to travel. All they have to do is do what millions of people are capable of doing - put documents online. The fact...

    Multiverse Theory and multiple Ezekiel 37 type events.

    Usual parroting and finding propaganda videos impressive. Impressive would be actual documents from Dean Braxton who claims to have documents. No documents makes a "twenty nine serious medical conditions" assertion at least unsupported. Your friend was at least misleading and seems deluded about...

    Multiverse Theory and multiple Ezekiel 37 type events.

    Still irrelevant to your friend's lie and fantasies, DennisTate, and usual NDE fantasies: Your friend was at least misleading and seems deluded about Ezekiel 37 ("a vision of the resurrection of dry bones"). The hallucinations and invalid theology of a Dr. George Ritchie. Lynnclaire Dennis...

    Dr. Chaim Henry Tejman on climate change!

    That is what I wrote. Global dimming is textbook climate science. The crank you found has a 22% "climate dimming" fantasy when the Sun's output has only decreased slightly over the last 40 years". Some scientists have suggested releasing aerosols to increase global dimming but that has its own...

    Dr. Chaim Henry Tejman on climate change!

    Whoops - you quote an obvious error and a climate crank, DennisTate. Climate is weather on scales of decades. "One degree in just three days" is weather change and definitely not surprising for a change in weather - a cold or warm front moving in! You have found yet another climate crank. A...
