[2013] EU FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

   Posted on November 28, 2011 by davesmith_au

   In preparation for the EU2012 [2013] Conference we have compiled a list
of
   broad, simple FAQs. Like most FAQs, these should be viewed as
   preliminary information for those who have not yet had the opportunity
   to learn about our Electric Universe. A proper exploration of EU can
   take the reader through thousands of free articles (Thunderbolts
   Picture Of the Day (TPODs), Thunderblogs, The Essential Guide to the
   Electric Universe, etc.) on our website or to a good number of
   published books and DVDs available at moderate cost through Mikamar
   Publishing.

   Q1. What is the Electric Universe?
   Q2. What is different about the Electric Universe?
   Q3. Is the Sun part of the Electric Universe?
   Q4. Isn't gravity the only force that works at larger distances in the
   universe?
   Q5. Who coined the phrase, "Electric Universe"?
   Q6. Who is studying the Electric Universe at NASA and other major
   space agencies?
   Q7. What is The Thunderbolts Project and why does it advocate the
   Electric Universe?
   Q8. In the electrical view, when did the universe begin?
   Q9. What is the power source behind electric currents in space?
   Q10. What is wrong with the dominant ideas in science today?

   Q1. What is the Electric Universe?

   A1. It's a new view of the universe that challenges the popular
   "gravity-centric" view.

   Q2. What is different about the Electric Universe?

   A2. In this new view, electric currents flow across all of space,
   creating high energy events and intricate structure that standard
   theory cannot explain. Recent data and observations of space call for
   new explanations.

   Q3. Is the Sun part of the Electric Universe?

   A3. Yes. Recent evidence suggests that electric currents flow along
   the arms of our galaxy, the Milky Way, then pinch together to create
   our star, the Sun. All stars appear to form in this same way, along
   vast but invisible filaments of charged particles.

   Q4. Isn't gravity the only force that works at larger distances in the
   universe?

   A4. No. Scientists long believed that only gravity could cause
   planets, stars, and galaxies to form. That view is contradicted by new
   observations. With new telescopes we see distant objects much more
   clearly, and we view intense electromagnetic events that could not be
   seen in visible light. The picture of space has changed.
     _________________________________________________________________

   Q5. Who coined the phrase, "Electric Universe"?

   A5. Historically, the phrase has been used only rarely and never by
   mainstream scientists. Our use of the phrase comes from Australian
   ---physicist--- Wallace Thornhill, chief science advisor of the
   Thunderbolts
   Project, who has drawn on the work of several predecessors.
     _________________________________________________________________

   Q6. Who is studying the Electric Universe at NASA and other major
   space agencies?

   A6. At present, Electric Universe research is not formally recognized
   by academic, corporate, or governmental institutions, though interest
   from individuals within all these institutions is growing.
     _________________________________________________________________

   Q7. What is The Thunderbolts Project and why does it advocate the
   Electric Universe?

   Q7. The Thunderbolts Project is a collaboration of accredited
   scientists, independent researchers and interested individuals. Its
   primary focus is on interdisciplinary research, experiment, and direct
   observation of nature. ---These researchers do not rely on extravagant
   mathematics to solve the great mysteries of the universe.--- Benjamin
   Franklin's famous kite experiment, proving that lightning is
   electricity, provided an early model for this experimental approach.
     _________________________________________________________________

   Q8. In the electrical view, when did the universe begin?

   A8. Today's science cannot give us either the origins or the size of
   the universe. The "Big Bang" is a highly doubtful theory according to
   Electric Universe proponents and a growing number of experts.
     _________________________________________________________________

   Q9. What is the power source behind electric currents in space?

   A9. The "ultimate source" of electric currents in space is unknown.
   The origin of matter is similarly unknown. But the existence of both
   is beyond question. Electric currents are proven by the magnetic
   fields they produce and by the resulting high-energy electromagnetic
   events.
     _________________________________________________________________

   Q10. What is wrong with the dominant ideas in science today?

   A10. Any scientific organization risks its own integrity when it
   claims exotic conjectures as fact. The Big Bang, black holes, dark
   matter, dark energy, neutron stars--even the nuclear fusion model of
   the Sun--are theoretical guesses, lacking the proof that integral
   science requires.
