thunderbolts project chapter 1

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. There is no doubt that the Hubble Space Telescope, the Spitzer infrared orbiting telescope, the Chandra orbiting x-ray observatory, SOHO,[6] and the magnificent, new, big, ground-based telescopes are all genuine technical marvels. 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. Th. A careful reading of these pages will enable you to make an informed assessment of this new plasma-based alternative cosmology. Appearing in "A Rare Night Off" Featured Characters: Thunderbolts. 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. Preface. [2] They rarely take any courses that discuss Maxwell’s equations[3] and electromagnetic field theory. The fruits of technology are real and are testable (do they work?). 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 far, most astrophysicists have completely ignored them. Their new ideas, in more ways than one, are electrifying the discourse in astrophysics. Therefore, 1 gigametre is 1 000 000 000 metres. This roster list is of the members during the team's history. There is an important difference between science and technology. What lights them up?” He might have answered, “They’re little Suns – just like our Sun, but far, far away.”. Minus an army of brainwashed assassins being defeated by a man in a green hood, Russia was uneventful, unlike the United States, which always seemed to take the brunt of threats. There is almost no way to judge the validity of theories that deal exclusively with phenomena that happened long, long ago and far, far away – with things that we cannot directly get our hands on.

The hypotheses of these plasma scientists on the subjects of solar, stellar, and galactic behavior are careful extrapolations of their demonstrated experimental results and physical principles. [6] The SOlar and Heliospheric Observatory. There's a new sheriff in town: Luke Cage! These first six chapters are not intended to be an indiscriminate rant against mainstream science but rather a dispassionate exposé of some of its real deficiencies. 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. The stream of increasingly bizarre pronouncements coming from astronomers and cosmologists has recently encountered a serious challenge. Most of their recent explanations are counterintuitive and almost impossible to understand. Will this new breed of scientists and engineers,[7] who are waiting in the wings, be called upon to clean things up? This is a free pdf download of the Thunderbolts of the Gods book introduction and first chapter. G.W. But before we can propose any new alternative cosmology – a Plasma Cosmology to replace the presently “accepted” astrophysical and cosmological belief structure – we have to examine some of the basic problems inherent in those accepted ideas. 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. Way received the Xeric Foundation's Xeric Grant in 2000 for his first publication, Violent Lifestyle #1. If not, you have lots of company. In step 2 of the Learning Cycle, learners explore how to construct a simple electric circuit by getting a light bulb to work.

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. Where We Are Headed None of these fields (archeology, geological history, and astronomy) is able to produce results that can be tested experimentally. 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. Today most people have cell phones. [3] The fundamental mathematical relationships upon which all of mankind’s electrical knowledge is based. This book is an account of what I unearthed when I started digging into this question. 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. Even so, until recently, I assumed that astronomers and astrophysicists knew what they were talking about. Consequently their methods have not kept up with the science of the Nineteenth Century, let alone the Twenty-First. This is one of the questions the first few chapters will address. 1 As to the disgorging of his offspring by Cronus, see Hes. 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. Earning a doctorate in electrical engineering eventually led to my teaching that subject at a major university for thirty-nine years. 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. Before getting the learners to do the activity, do it yourself and ensure that it works with the batteries and bulbs available. Burnham set the scale in his model so that 1 inch (1″) equals 1 AU or 93 million miles. Chapter 1- Meet the Thunderbolts. We have orbiting, computer-driven telescopes that can see a thousand times better than the largest earthbound optical observatories of only a few decades ago. 1 kilometre is 1000 metres. We originally produced a simple weekly newsletter but upgraded it in 2013: Subscribe to the newsletter Essential Guide to the EU – Chapter 10 Rotational Effects. New surgical procedures, hospital techniques, instrumentation, and medicines are saving, prolonging, and improving the quality of our lives. 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. “These scientists, doctors and engineers really know what they are doing.”. No wonder they do not understand that many cosmic phenomena are due to forces other than gravity, fluid flow, and the magnetism of lodestones. Therefore we are able to create accurate models of cosmic-scale phenomena in the lab and study them. [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). 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? 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! 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. 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. 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. Modern, straightforward explanations of all the phenomena astronomers find so enigmatic are now available to us. But they are basically electrical in nature, and their observed properties can truly be understood only from an electrical viewpoint. 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. Is it open to hypotheses that look at old data in new ways? Are these responses any more believable or satisfying than those that Daddy offered us? Chapter 1 Introduction Questions and Answers Alfvén’s Warning Technology and Science Where We Are Headed It’s Time to Decide References. Indeed not. Technology and Science Thunderbolts Classic, vol. All it requires is the time and patience to read and to think logically and critically about the issues. As we grew up, we may have read science books in which astrophysicists declared that stars are continuously burning hydrogen bombs – and that they condensed from spinning clouds of gas and dust. PS-14, No. 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. They put the engineer who designed it under the bridge, and then they marched the army across it.” Astrophysicists do not design anything that we can march the army across. Everyone knew the stars were not electric lights. Introduction Even though my life-long avocation has been amateur astronomy, my formal background is in engineering – not astronomy or cosmology. | EU2013 [7] See Appendix D – An open letter to the scientific community signed by leading plasma engineers and physicists. 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? We flew to the Moon decades ago and we have sent landers to Venus and Mars. The latest stock market report is available to us while we are mountain climbing in Asia. When a dentist repairs a cavity in your tooth, the first thing he does is to excise the decay. The average informed person can understand and make rational judgments about these ideas. This scale would be expressed as 1:6,000,000,000,000. Origins of mythology and symbolism 4. We look at the achievements in these fields of human endeavor and acknowledge them with admiration. Ours really is an Electric Sky. 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. 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. ÇÿÚ ? 617ff. Plasma phenomena in ancient times 3. 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. We have orbited Jupiter and Saturn and visited several of their moons. We have put our faith in scientists and engineers, and it has clearly paid off – except in astronomy (and possibly archeology and geology). These questions will be explored in the first three chapters. Hawkeye (Clint Barton) Moonstone (Karla Sofen) Songbird (Mel Gold) The defenders of the present cosmological realm are resisting this intrusion into their once exclusive domain. 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. Dr. Michael Clarage: Our Universe — It’s Electric! Some basic facts and a few new concepts will suffice. They do not involve invisible matter or unseen forces or “new science” – claims that the laws of physics must be different out there in deep space (where we cannot falsify them) from what they are here on Earth. 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. It’s Time to Decide http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/. None of us was told that the stars worked electrically. We must take a cold, hard, analytical look at the methods of modern science in general and astrophysics in particular. Chapter 6, “Clusters of Galaxies,” presented his finding that the clusters were low-luminosity high-redshift—and nearby—“star piles.” Plasma and electricity in space 2. [4] This one was called Cosmic Plasma. Right now what is needed most is the public’s realization that astrophysics, led by insular theoreticians and not by well-informed, broadly educated scientists, has stumbled far down that erroneous path predicted by Alfvén. Four deep-space probes are now near the outer limits of our Sun’s reach – the heliopause. Unlike other countries, Russia had managed to avoid some of the rather bizarre events of the last few years. 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. But I agonized over whether those doubts were legitimate. ~David Talbott, The Thunderbolts Project. And they claim that 96% of the material in the entire universe is invisible. One outstanding example (featured on the cover of this book) is the way Greek sculptors carved the thunderbolt in the hand of the god Zeus. 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! I hope your journey through these pages will be meaningful, educational, perhaps exciting, and most important of all, eye-opening. Plasma physicists know that 96% of the universe is not made up of “invisible matter” but rather of matter in the plasma state. Thunderbolts of the Gods by David Talbott and Wallace Thornhill — Chapter 1. We have digital devices we can put in our pockets that hold 6000 books, more than most people read in a lifetime. 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. So how can these researchers judge the correctness of their conclusions without considering a range of possible explanations that are based on different assumptions?

People have great confidence in science these days. --Hydra Agent . [5] Cosmic Plasma, by H. Alfvén, D. Reidel Pub., 1981. 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. Th. Anyone interested in astrophysics needs to become aware of the properties of the electric plasma that fills more than 99% of the universe. 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. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: Essential Guide to the Electric Universe – Introduction. Hannes Alfvén is the central figure in the emerging electric plasma cosmology. 6, Dec. 1986. But it may well be that general acceptance of these new ideas will have to wait until the present occupants of the astrophysics power structure have retired from the scene. 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? 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. Most of the results of the science of astrophysics are not testable. 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. They almost never reexamine their basic assumptions or rethink their hypotheses. Then 1 mile in our model would equal 1 ly. Carm. A key example of one of the shortcomings of present mainstream astrophysics is that so many things seem to be “missing.” There is missing matter, invisible dark energy, invisible “strings,” and too few solar neutrinos. Questions and Answers The Electric Universe by Wallace Thornhill and David Talbott — Chapter 1. Bridge Agent Sayer Dallas Riordan Villains: Elements of Doom Arsenic (First appearance) Barium (First appearance) Cadmium (First appearance) Carbon (First … There are basic requirements and inherent limitations involved in the scientific method with which we must be familiar. [5] By disregarding Alfvén’s new text, as they had his earlier works, the astrophysics community did not heed his warnings that they were working their way down a dead-end path strewn with errors of understanding. We need to have an intuitive, conceptual model of how big galaxies are and how far apart they are. The Thunderbolts is a team of comic book supervillains and superheroes, as published by Marvel Comics. Today they tell us that stars even more massive than our Sun are rotating faster than dentists’ drills. Instead of engaging in further futile attempts to persuade the astrophysical community to seriously consider these new ideas, a growing band of plasma scientists, engineers, and a few brave cosmologists and astronomers are simply bypassing them. This is provided in chapter 4. Presently another of our interplanetary probes is on its way to Pluto. Thunderbolts of the Gods / by David Talbott and Wallace Thornhill 1. All our space probes that have been equipped to detect separated electrical charges –electric plasma – have found it, lots of it. They are mentioned here only for completeness – to point out that both these branches of science have difficulties similar to astrophysics. I began to investigate more of the pronouncements of modern astrophysicists and the reasoning behind them. Let us see how. Theoretical geologists also tell impressive stories about how the continents have shifted and how and when the mountains formed. Popularized versions of their theories are published in Scientific American, Discover, and National Geographic. Chapter 1 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. In this book, we will look at many of the theories of present-day astrophysics and compare them to corresponding answers that have arisen from the study of electric plasma. Through GPS receivers we can tell exactly where we are anywhere on the surface of Earth. 1 collects Thunderbolts #1-5, #-1 (part of Marvel's "Flashback" promotion), Annual '97, Incredible Hulk #449, Spider-Man Team-Up #7, and a short story from Tales of the Marvel Universe #1, all originally published in 1997. ; Hor. Astrophysicists do not study experimental plasma research in graduate school. The actual distance of the planets from the Sun is given in millions of kilometres and the length of the string is in metres (m). [2] “Double Layers and Circuits in Astrophysics,” Hannes Alfvén, IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science, Vol. Zub and Malin turn the volume is up to 11 throughout, from word to page. Of course, the stars are not electric lights – at least not in the sense that we know electric lights. And yet astrophysicists seem to be intent on ignoring them. Professional astronomers judge their success by the degree to which other astronomers believe and accept their ideas.
