Wow, grade 8 science blows the beave out of the basement.
		
		
	 
 The irony is thick here, almost rivaling the posters cranial dimension, even so he does appreciate the level of mainstream discourse.

 											--- 
Marshall  											McLuhan
 											According to a 											
 											recent press release, an  											immense eruption on the Sun  											encompassed almost an 											
 											entire hemisphere. The  											extraordinary plasma discharge  											prompted this response from Karel  											Schrijver of Lockheed Martin's Solar  											and Astrophysics Lab in Palo Alto,  											California: "The August 1st event  											really opened our eyes. We see that  											solar storms can be global events,  											playing out on scales we scarcely  											imagined before."
 											The massive 											
 											coronal mass ejection  											(CME) demonstrated that solar  											explosions are interconnected by  											magnetic fields reaching out for  											thousands of miles. The Great  											Eruption (as it was called) was  											composed of several smaller  											components: solar flares, filaments,  											and CMEs that spanned 180 degrees of  											solar longitude and lasted for 28  											hours.
 											CMEs typically spew plasma in the  											billions of tons throughout the  											Solar System. A signature of CME  											ejections is an increase in auroral  											brightness and frequency on Earth.  											The ejections are composed of  											charged particles, and are attracted  											to and follow Earth's polar magnetic  											cusps. A few CMEs have been observed  											to leave the Sun with unexpected  											acceleration: velocities more than  											70,000 kilometers per second have  											been clocked.
 											
The fact that events on the Sun  											should be influenced by one another  											does not seem surprising when the  											Electric Star model is considered.  											Magnetic fields have been detected  											in galaxies, meaning that electric  											currents must flow through them in  											circuits. There is no other way to  											create a magnetic field other than  											the movement of electric current in  											a conductive medium.
 											Magnetic forces constrict  											currents into filaments, which twist  											around each other and "pinch"  											galactic plasma into balls, pulling  											matter together until internal  											pressure balances the so-called  											"electromagnetic z-pinch" pressure.  											This pinch effect is far more  											powerful than gravity, and can  											gather matter from hundreds of  											light-years away, forming stars like  											beads along the galactic filaments.
 											The surface of a star like the  											Sun generates multiple loop  											structures that rise up from its  											surface and penetrate its plasma  											sheath, or double layer region of  											the Sun, where most of its  											electrical energy is contained. When  											the current flowing into the Sun's  											plasma sheath increases beyond a  											certain point it can trigger a  											sudden release of energy, otherwise  											known as a CME.
 											As Electric Universe advocate 											
 											Don Scott makes clear,  											powerful looping electric currents  											generate secondary toroidal magnetic  											fields. If the current grows too  											strong, the plasma double layer is  											destroyed. That event interrupts the  											current flow and the stored  											electromagnetic energy is blasted  											into space.
 											
It is not surprising to Electric  											universe proponents that conditions  											on the Sun are governed by  											interconnected magnetic fields, and,  											by extension, electric currents.
 											Stephen Smith
	
		
	
	
		
		
			Ahh, the master of circular nonsense.
Adiabtic processes are the result of a change in pressure. 
You and your electric universe crap. You'll latch onto anything that isn't mainstream, no matter how hair-brained the idea, and no matter how poor the evidence. 
Predictable beaver.
		
		
	 
 Have some respect for the observable Tonnington.  Those magnetic fields are certainly not the product of my imagination and neither is their electric companion.
