Yep, and it runs the telly because of quantum mechanics' understanding of how particles behave. There are quantum mechanical devices in your telly, unless it's a *very* old one, and they work because quantum mechanics provides an accurate, predictive description of how things behave. Which is not something you can say about your electric cosmos foolishness, it predicts things that are not seen, like the current of electrons moving at relativistic speeds that are required to power the sun in that model and the huge magnetic field that would generate, and flies in the face of things that ARE seen, like the electrically neutral solar wind.

Protrons are not neutral, and there is no wind in space.

Einstein was a criminal in charge of obfuscation and deceit leading to the state of babble now extant in cosmology. DB



Einstein in his special theory of relativity postulated there was no medium, called the ‘aether.’ But Maxwell’s theory of electromagnetism requires it. And Sir Oliver Lodge saw the aether as crucial to our understanding. So Einstein, at a stroke, removed any possibility that he, or his followers, would find a link between electromagnetism and gravity. It served the egos of his followers to consecrate Einstein’s ideas and treat dissent as blasphemy.

The LHC found the Higgs Boson, and British scientist Peter Higgs - who first proposed the existence of the Higgs Boson - was awarded the 2013 Nobel Prize for Physics as a result.
Yeah well, I am pretty sure that Nobel would be firing some of the people that choose who to give his prizes to. I never would have paid much attention to who got one until they gave Obama one. But the Hadron Collider is an interesting piece of machinery. Grossly overpriced but what can you say? Politicians of all countries allow idiotic expenditures.

It's baffling why they are called ELECTrons.
... protons and NEUTRons, too.

Don't give them ideas.



It does not seem to matter, haha, what hallucinogen I ingest I just can't get as outofit as whacked particle phizzishisscists. They're science welfare bums and that's the plain truth of it.
I admit, there are some that are as you say.

BS. It is a continuous flow of charged particles travelling at a pretty good pace. Although, I suppose you could call a tornado a light breeze if you wish. A molecule of air is only 64 x 10^-30 m3 and a density of about 1.25kg/m^3 and travels at a measly 350 km/hr.

You're welcome.

Neither are electrons, which also occur in the solar wind, which is electrically neutral overall. You have to deny direct observational evidence to sustain that silly electric cosmos hypothesis.
Solar wind is charged particles (plasma) which mostly consists of electrons and protons with energies usually between 1.5 and 10 keV.

In the Electric Universe model, most of the voltage difference between the Sun and the galaxy occurs across the heliospheric boundary sheath. Inside the heliopause the weak electric field centered on the Sun is enough to power the solar discharge. The visible component of the glow discharge occurs above the solar surface in layers.

According to the electric Sun theory, an electric field focused on the Sun accelerates charged particles: the faster they accelerate, the stronger the field. But as noted, the interplanetary electric field is extremely weak. No instrument would be able to measure the voltage differential across 100 meters, but the solar wind acceleration over tens of millions of kilometers does confirm the Sun's e-field, enough to sustain a drift current across the Solar System. Within the spatial volume, the implied current is sufficient to power the Sun.Solar Electricity

The field will accelerate oppositely charged particles in opposite directions. That's not observed either. You're still stuck with a hypothesis that doesn't explain what's observed and predicts things that aren't observed.

I know.

Right then, show us a bottle of the stuff. Budgets and politics decide Nobel Prizes. Witness the peace prize awarded to a global class murderer and warmonger, Obama the Knife.


So the LHC operators were lying when they said they had discovered the Higgs Boson?
