This twisted form will come as no surprise to some because it is the natural and most electrically efficient way to retain and transmit energy across great distances - we know this from basic electrical engineering. On the scales in question, these twisted pairs therefore act just like the power lines of our national grid distribution networks. They instead form the cosmic energy distribution network that supplies power to galaxies, stars and other structures on the grandest of scales. This idea is key to picturing the process by which galaxies and stars are formed and how they go on to behave in the various ways we now see they do. We shall be looking much more closely in chapter six at how these things are actually achieved. The idea of galaxies strung along a galactic power line © author Go back to the idea of our inability as humans to really appreciate the scale of things in the universe and keep in mind that it consists of plasma to the tune of 99.99%. From our everyday experience within this thin biosphere of breathable air, we modern humans have previously never had reason to focus on the evidence around us that indicates powerfully charged plasma exists in space. The reason for this is the highly unusual physical separation that exists between our living environment on the surface of Earth and the vast environment of space. This implies that our main experiences only relate to the other three types of matter when they are in their neutral state; plasma being obvious to us only in the forms we produce for our own purposes such as fluorescent lighting, electric arc welding or where we see it in nature as lightning and fire. These forms of plasma do not constantly or in any overly intimidating way, surround and impress us like the powerful manifestations we experience of wind, water or solid ground eruptions. This is why the powerful but small-scale effects of current-carrying plasma in our everyday environment, have been relegated and only considered useful at our own scale of experience through man-made processes. Beyond Earth’s biosphere, the actual situation could not be more at odds because plasma is the most fundamental form of matter and it exists at every scale from sub-atomic to cosmic. This is where our notion of scale can help us to appreciate what is really meant by the implications of 99.99% of our universe being made up of plasma. Our universe is so big that it is impossible for us to hold an adequate appreciation of its size in our minds. At our present level of mental capability, how can we hope to develop a true feel for how big and old things are - how small they can be - how fast things can be - how far away things can be and especially, how powerful and effective electrical energy in space can be. The universe is unimaginably big but we must also think about the sub-atomic structures of all forms of matter which are unimaginably small. 73 | Some basic theory that will help
The relative location within this scale of things where we humans experience reality, is a very tiny place indeed; it is somewhere in the middle between the two extremes. Attempting to study these vast differences in scale has been very enlightening for me and it has helped bring a measure of clarity to my perspective on everything. It seems (to me) that to claim what astro-science has already seen fit to claim about the crazy enormity and operation of the universe from the position of our couple of hundred years of modern experience and learning within our tiny biosphere, is just silly and typically arrogant of us. All I believe we really can do is to build worthy research programs from science that we already know works, then from what we discover, form further impressions of our reality with which we can live until we refine these through similar good science. The 0.01% not included in the 99.99% figure for plasma in the universe is a token amount that represents the electrically neutral matter left over, such as what we have in Earth’s biosphere, after taking into account all the other forms in our universe that are in a charge differentiated state. Remember here that the EM force is overwhelmingly more powerful than the force of gravity. So, since we are talking about charge differentiated plasma on galactic and stellar scales that carries enormous electrical power, we are reminded yet again to question the ‘do-it-all’ claims that the puny force of gravity has been associated with. The EM Spectrum This is one of my favourite areas for it touches so many aspects of our lives and acts as a foundation on which to build an understanding of a great many important things in our environment. Here I have in mind that we go through life not usually paying too much attention to the objects that surround us and the natural events that occur; things such as … • • • • • • • • • • What we physically feel when we enjoy a bright sunny day. How music is received and played to us by the radio in our car. What takes place when we go to hospital to get that sprained wrist X-rayed. What burns our skin if we stay out in the sun for too long. How we produce images from space that would otherwise be invisible to our normal telescopes. How our microwave oven bakes those potatoes. Why our toast burns if we leave it under the grill for too long. Why everything, especially our natural world, appears so colourful to us. How the military and security folks have the ability to see in the dark. And, how we can control tiny robots on the surface of Mars from here on the Earth. 74 | Some basic theory that will help
