Is this a pipe-dream? I do not know, but what I can say is that I will personally do what I can in my own small<br />

way to help bring this about. It is an amusing thought to consider that the legendary Sherlock Holmes would<br />

have seen right through the weakness <strong>of</strong> the almighty gravity story and that he would have constructed an<br />

assessment <strong>of</strong> the EU model as the party actually responsible for the wonderful universe we have! The idea that<br />

gravity-initiated implosions and explosions <strong>of</strong> stars being able to expel mechanical shock waves powerfully<br />

enough to make dust and gas glow to emit the most harmful radiation in the universe is bunkum, hogwash,<br />

claptrap, and codswallop … in my opinion!<br />

Pulsars, Neutron Stars and Magnetars: These supposed different ‘types <strong>of</strong> star’ and other related star types<br />

are treated by traditional astro-science as mysterious, but at the same time, understandable enough to describe to<br />

the public in confident terms. This has meant that the information given to us about them has left the impression<br />

that they really are all stars <strong>of</strong> different types. It will become clear, however, that they are all ‘effects’ rather than<br />

objects distinct from other stars, in fact, EU theory suggests that all <strong>of</strong> them may arise from electrical activity<br />

in the magnetospheres <strong>of</strong> otherwise ordinary stars.<br />

The main discriminating factors for the powerful events we detect in space should now be apparent, these being<br />

the differing types and amounts <strong>of</strong> ionised matter, energy and time. Time, <strong>of</strong> course, plays a part in every event,<br />

but in the case <strong>of</strong> the effects being discussed here, it is appropriate to highlight its role in particular. Remember<br />

that events in the universe happen at a pace that is apparently so slow we do not think to consider its effect.<br />

We have been observing deep space and the events out there for nowhere near one hundred years, so again our<br />

arrogance and lack <strong>of</strong> appreciation <strong>of</strong> the actual scale <strong>of</strong> things blinds us to the fact that our judgement <strong>of</strong> these<br />

events, which we effectively see in still picture form, is in no way good enough to inform us fully <strong>of</strong> what the<br />

movie we are watching is really about.<br />

The observed behaviour <strong>of</strong> so-called Pulsars has given them the name ‘lighthouses <strong>of</strong> the universe’. This<br />

has been a handy analogy to use, but is misleading in the impression it conjures up <strong>of</strong> a rotating beam <strong>of</strong><br />

light. Pulsars in standard theory are incredibly dense, narrow radiation beam emitting, rotating bodies formed<br />

through the dying star notion <strong>of</strong> a supernova event. They are labelled ‘lighthouses’ because they are observed<br />

producing pulses <strong>of</strong> EM radiation (X-rays) on a very regular basis. There is actually no direct evidence <strong>of</strong> actual<br />

rotation that would bring about a sweeping lighthouse beam effect; it is only because they pulse that physical<br />

rotation has been assumed. This is old and narrow thinking again! The radiation they emit can be identified and<br />

measured, but this is pretty much all that is known about them; everything else has been guesswork, and as<br />

with so many other things, nobody has seen one as an actual object in the eyepiece <strong>of</strong> a telescope! The idea <strong>of</strong><br />

a beam emanating from a rotating body is immediately suspect when in the context <strong>of</strong> our plasma universe we<br />

consider a simple electrical explanation for the behaviour we see. However, before we do this, we will have a<br />

further brief look at the standard story around pulsars.<br />
