A Beginner's View of Our Electric Universe - New

In my opinion, supporters of the standard theories have boxed themselves
into a corner and are essentially blind to the possibility that their ideas are
wrong. They seem to know or care little about electrical effects because
their professors are likewise ignorant on the subject. Yes, I understand that
for some, aspects of what I say in this book will come across as arrogant and
even unfounded. This is something I regret, but as an interested member of
the public who has put the time and effort into understanding these things,
it seems plain that impact theory can explain only a tiny fraction of craters,
especially the circular ones that make up the vast majority!

I see no option than to face up to the fact that if we accept that electrical
currents flow within the conductive medium of space as described and that
charged bodies exist there that have moved around and interacted electrically,
then Birkeland current discharges will surely be the prime suspect in the
process of machining out craters. This is also a process that people who have
an appreciation of the basic behaviour of plasma discharges agree would take place at right angles to the surface
at the receiving end of the discharge. Therefore, the conditions for producing a circular feature would appear
to be in place. For visual confirmation of this just look at a decorative plasma ball. There you see every one
of the dancing filaments of plasma in contact with the central electrode at right
angles (90 degrees). So, to take everything so far covered into account, is it not
plausible that a vertically-acting tornado of electric current with its associated
EM forces could scour and lift surface material away from a planet or moon to
leave behind circular craters?
If you allow yourself to hold on to this thought then you may realise also that this
electrical action would likely be completed in just a few seconds or minutes and
that it would appear to an observer like the strike of a cosmic thunderbolt. Here
again there is a temptation to link things with aspects of myth and legend found
in ancient accounts of great battles that took place in the skies between gods and
warriors. I find this profoundly interesting, especially because the science itself
makes great sense and the peoples of those times would have had no reason whatsoever to mislead anyone with
what certainly would be their honest attempts to record their impression of what was to them very real.
