Re: APOD: Hubble Remix: Active Galaxy NGC 1275 (2010 Jun 04)

What keeps the filaments together? well that should be obvious. The filaments are held together by magnetic fields, (how do you measure magnetic fields 230 million light years away?), which implies electrical current. No other reason.

Re: APOD: Dark Filament of the Sun (2010 May 22)

Back when APOD was still linking into DIGG, I unknowingly stirred up an unpleasant discussion between the people that support gravitational fields as a dominant enforcer of our universe's properties and those that prefer the electrical/magnetic fields as the more important enforcer. I don't want to...

Re: APOD: Dark Filament of the Sun (2010 May 22)

Plasma cannot exist without flowing electric currents. Magnetic field lines cannot exist without flowing electric currents. Really simple electrical theory. So, how does the Sun really work? A plasma is nothing more than an ionized gas. It is conductive, but that doesn't mean that there must be cur...

Re: APOD: M87: Elliptical Galaxy with Jet (2010 May 20)

If nothing can escape from a black hole, then a super massive black hole will let a lot less than nothing escape! So how does a scientific theory,(which is what a black hole is), focus a plasma beam, thousands of light years long?

Re: APOD: M72: A Globular Cluster of Stars (2010 May 12)

With a globular cluster, what are the dynamics that form the group? Are they static in relationship with each other? Or are they moving in to a central point or expanding? If gravity is the driving power behind elliptical galaxies that have spin, what happened to Globular?

Re: APOD: Herschel Crater on Mimas of Saturn (2010 May 11)

If this is an impact crater it would of destroyed the moon or left it in a sorry state. It would of hit at a high velocity. Also you would find major destruction at the antipode site on the opposite side of the crater. Nothing there.

Nuclear THEORY dictates the surface should be hotter than the Chromosphere as you are moving further away from the heat source. Why is it when you ...

Re: APOD: Virgo Cluster Galaxy NGC 4731 (2010 Apr 29)

If NGC 4731 has had a gravitational distortion from NGC 4697 you would not get the effect you can see. If they passed by each other, that would be a rarity indeed because of the vast distances between galaxies. If it is gravitational distortion, (assumption), then why are they no other distorted int...

Are we really observing what you see or just assuming what we think it must be? It is not gravity causing the effect, or a second star. It is a perfect example of a pinched Birkeland current stream.

Re: APOD: Unusual Spiral Galaxy M66 from Hubble (2010 Apr 13

The stumbling block with most astronomers is that they see the universe as electrically neutral when all the evidence points to a different conclusion. Theories are constantly having to be rewritten as new evidence is found that does not fit the gravitational model. An electrical universe fits simpl...

Re: APOD: Unusual Spiral Galaxy M66 from Hubble (2010 Apr 13

Hi Chris, Thanks for the explanation. But if you have a close look at what an astronomer would call "streams of brown gas" in the arms, you would see that they are filamentary in structure, In some places you can see that these filaments are twisted. Gravity does not do this. Neither does ...

Re: APOD: Unusual Spiral Galaxy M66 from Hubble (2010 Apr 13

Tidal gravitational pulls from nearby galaxies? I do not think so! Gravity is not that strong in space to have that effect. Astronomers can only say gravity because; 1 They do not look at the observed facts before them; 2 They cannot think of anything else! M66 is another good example of why gravity...
