... a universe which could be described as an electrified fabric. "The Sun," writes Juergens, "is the anode end of a cathodeless discharge extending from the perimeter of the solar system." The solar photosphere is comparable to the "tufted anode glow" in an electric discharge tube. The Sun gathers electrons from galactic bodies and plasma, and sends out an ion current, the solar wind, to the galaxy. Juergens dismissed the thermonuclear explanation of the Sun's heat in favor of a galaxy-solar electric exchange. The thermonuclear theory, recently developed, sought to explain the Sun's properties of luminosity, temperature and stability by its essential chemical composition, mass and size, assuming ...

... material into its hungry maelstrom. [131] It is these attributes which originally made me latch on to Frederic Jueneman's exposition of this phenomenon as a Rankine vortex complete with bolus flow. However, as I pointed out in the paper cited above, I have also have had to consider Wallace Thornhill's alternative explication of this prodigy as a sustained plasma discharge in the form of Birkeland current. [132] Van Rhee objects that, had the diameter of this column been vast enough to enable its visibility from a distance, "such a vortex would have caused a continuous storm all over [Earth's northern hemisphere." This destructive quality, he then states, "would certainly have ...
423. Thoth Vol I, No. 24: October 20, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... the electric model of a nova and discredited the standard explosive model! You will notice the number of special conditions required of the exploding star under conventional theory. None apply to the electric discharge model. All that is required is a build-up of charge between two bodies, or a single body and its galactic environment, until breakdown of the plasma occurs. The periodicity of the recurrent nova T Pyxidis is evidence for two bodies being involved in recurring close approaches. It will be of particular interest to find out how the blobs are moving since expulsion. Remember as you read the last part of the release, which attempts to explain a nova, that there are no such things ...
424. Zetetic Scholar Nos. 3 & 4 April 1979 [Articles]
... which (with a deep breath) he introduced as "Melvin Cook's sophisticated Madelung-force dynamic-lattice plasma-theoretical electromagnetic theory of gravity" (10) - a theory which would allow electrically charged planets to behave in a perfectly Newtonian manner, even to their perturbation effects, except on close approach. Within a certain distance (corresponding to the Debye length of plasma physics), their charged nature would lead to the non-Newtonian effects predicted by Velikovsky's theory but difficult to reconcile with orthodox models. Dr. May demands a "return to the fundamental tenets of scholarship," which it seems are easily forgotten. I sincerely consider that perhaps the best "map" of these tenets for anyone seeking a ...

426. Viva Lamarck: Renewed Discussion on the Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics [Journals] [Aeon]
... requiring a belief in the inheritance of acquired characters, such as his earlier researches with regard to temperature-induced changes in the coloration of butterflies. Now Weismann would argue that these induced variations only simulated Lamarckian inheritance, involving in reality parallel changes in the body and genome, which had been similarly and simultaneously modified. A. Weismann, The Germ Plasma (New York, 1902), p.401. 96. (p .26, #3 ). Here Weismann conceded that the introduction of plastids into the plant cell constituted an inheritance of an acquired character. 97. (p .27, #1 ). Ibid., p.28. See also A ...
