Sorry to necro this thread but I figured Michael would appreciate this article:
"X-Points" --Hidden Portals Found Linking Earth to Sun's Magnetic Field
Simulations of the Universe on the largest scales show an unexpected resemblance to nerve cells in the human brain, with galaxy clusters playing the role of the cell body and thinner filaments of matter linking them like axons.
Keep in mind that the mainstream community pretty much ignores the role of currents in space, so IMO it's most likely that the "dark matter' they describe is actually ordinary current flowing through ordinary plasma filaments.

Even still I thought this article was interesting because it does show similarities between a human brain and the layout of matter in the universe. That observation isn't the least bit "surprising" IMO.![]()

So how do you explain the lack of emitted light? A plasma carrying charge should radiate some heat, should it not?
Max Planck said:"As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter - Max Planck, father of quantum physics
"I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness." - Max Planck
Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And that is because, in the last analysis, we ourselves are part of nature and therefore part of the mystery that we are trying to solve. - Max Planck
Paul Becke posted these quotes in another thread and I couldn't resist adding them to this thread because they so eloquently explain my position on awareness and consciousness as fundamental properties of this universe. Thanks Paul.
Why must we assume that?We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind.
I regard consciousness as made of magic chocolate and I regard matter as magic vanilla. So? However we "regard" things is irrelevant and doesn't necessarily bring us closer to reality.I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness.
What is this ultimate mystery?Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature.
I don't have any evidence that there is actually any lack of emitted light. We can't even observe whole small stars in distant galaxies only light from the biggest ones, so why would I expect them to be able to clearly observe diffuse light from distant plasma threads in space? If they can't see whole suns the size of our sun from that distance, how in the world would they be able to see diffuse light from distant current carrying threads in space? We do observe the magnetic field effects from Birkeland currents in space.
First, you need a lot of mass to produce the observed gravitational lensing.....
Actually, that's not a given. Peratt's PIC simulations produced galaxies with the correct layouts based on EM field influences. I still think there is plenty of "normal" mass that simply isn't accounted for yet.and the gravitational effects on galaxy rotation.
[1205.5037] A huge reservoir of ionized gas around the Milky Way: Accounting for the Missing Mass?This would need to be more than just some ephemeral plasma.
There would need to be a great deal of it. So I see two problems with your proposal: a lack of absorption as light passes through the plasma, and a lack of light produced as current moves through the plasma. There is a reason they call it dark matter, after all.
And of course we can resolve single stars in other galaxies:
UC Davis News & Information :: Hubble Pictures Show Single Stars in Distant Galaxy
The high-resolution images also show that NGC 3379 contains variable stars, which change in brightness over time. Some stars clearly seen on one date image were no longer visible three months later.
I disagree with Planck.
"We" (including you) don't necessarily have to do that, but Max and I do.Why must we assume that?
Conscious matter
The American physicist Nick Herbert has been even more specific on the similarities between Quantum Theory and consciousness. Herbert thinks that consciousness is a pervasive process in nature. Mind is as fundamental a component of the universe as elementary particles and forces. Mind can be detected by three features of quantum theory: randomness, thinglessness (objects acquire attributes only once they are observed) and interconnectedness (John Bell's discovery that once two particles have interacted they remain connected). Herbert thinks that these three features of inert matter can account for three basic features of mind: free will, essential ambiguity, and deep psychic connectedness. Scientists may be vastly underestimating the quantity of consciousness in the universe.
In Planck's case, it might. We really don't know "exactly" what consciousness is, although I would argue that we've learned to "control" or at least influence it with external EM fields and such. Whether or not it's intrinsic to the universe itself seems to be the question.I regard consciousness as made of magic chocolate and I regard matter as magic vanilla. So? However we "regard" things is irrelevant and doesn't necessarily bring us closer to reality.
I think in Max Planck's case the mystery is the 'force' that is responsible for 'creating' atoms. He believes it to be "consciousness". Paul had a link from an author that suggests that the atom itself has the earmarks of an intelligently designed machine.What is this ultimate mystery?
Vast Cosmic Filament Discovered Connecting Milky Way to the Universe
I thought I'd point out this article that demonstrates that current carrying plasma filaments link our galaxy to the rest of our universe.
Perhaps my eyes are going, but at no point in the article does it say that the filament carries current, or that it is even specifically a "plasma filament".

The easiest and simplest way to explain such high sustained temperatures in plasma is with "current". Furthermore it's the current that generates the magnetic fields that act to "pinch" the plasma into a "filament" in the first place.A team of 5 astronomers using data from the Chandra, the European Space Agency’s XMM-Newton space observatory, and Japan’s Suzaku satellite have determined that the temperature of the halo is between 1 million and 2.3 million kelvins.
That particular connection was made *this* year:

(Pastor Rick Joyner, Chapter 15, The Vision)“Many times, the broken notes from earth caused all of heaven to weep with joy as they beheld My Father being touched. A few holy ones struggling to express their adoration for Him has many times caused Him to weep. Every time I see My brethren touch Him with true worship, it makes the pain and grief I knew on the cross seem like a small price to pay. Nothing brings Me more joy than when you worship My Father. I went to the cross so that you could worship Him through Me. It is in this worship that you, the Father and I are all one.
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
If God has existed for infinite time in the past and actually choreographed an infinite number of Big Bang events over infinite time in the past....then I suppose that investing all that effort into the creation would tend to make the Creator highly emotionally attached to this creation?????
Could God the Father be the most emotional being in the universe?
