| qqqqqqq User ID: 30895998 12/27/2012 02:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Have you ever seen a movie, where a spaceship accidentally gets a fracture, a hole in the hull, and then all of a sudden the air from the inside, maybe along with screaming passengers and stuff, is "sucked" or ejected into the open space with a tremendous power. Well, not exactly sucked, it's because of the vacuum, but you know how it works. Now, my question is: if all that vast space around the Earth is the empty vacuum, why the Earth's atmosphere does not get "sucked" off? You might say it's because of gravity, but gravity is not that powerful compared with the "force" of vacuum. E.g., you can easily jump up off the Earth, temporary overcoming the gravity at least for a few inches and then landing, but could you jump from the hole in the spaceship hull? Not a chance. Meanwhile, the air pressure and gravity force in the spaceship and on Earth is not very different, you can survive in both. So, where's the secret? What keeps the Earth's atmosphere from escaping from Earth? |

Like I said, it is electric. In this day and age there is no longer any doubt that electrical effects in plasmas play an important role in the phenomena we observe on the Sun. The major properties of the "Electric Sun (ES) model" are as follows: Quoting: Electric SunMost of the space within our galaxy is occupied by plasma (rarefied ionized gas) containing electrons (negative charges) and ionized atoms (positive charges). Every charged particle in the plasma has an electric potential energy (voltage) just as every pebble on a mountain has a mechanical potential energy with respect to sea level. The Sun is at the center of a plasma cell, called the heliosphere, that stretches far out - several times the radius of Pluto. As of 9/9/2012 the radius of this plasma cell has been measured to be greater than 18 billion km or 122 times the distance from the Sun to Earth. These are facts not hypotheses. The Sun is at a more positive electrical potential (voltage) than is the space plasma surrounding it - probably in the order of several billion volts. Positive ions leave the Sun and electrons enter the Sun. Both of these flows add to form a net positive current flowing through the Sun (entering at the poles and leaving radially at lower latitudes). This constitutes a plasma discharge analogous in every way (except size) to those that have been observed in electrical plasma laboratories for decades. Because of the Sun's positive charge (voltage), it acts as the anode in a plasma discharge. As such, it exhibits many of the phenomena observed in earthbound plasma laboratory experiments. The Sun may be powered, not from within itself, but from outside, by the electric (Birkeland) currents that flow in our arm of our galaxy as they do in all galaxies. This possibility - that the Sun may be externally powered by its galactic environment - is the most speculative idea in the ES hypothesis and is always attacked by critics while they completely ignore all the other more obvious properties of the ES model. In the Plasma Universe model, cosmic sized, low-density currents create the galaxies and the stars within those galaxies by the electromagnetic z-pinch effect. It is only a small extrapolation to ask whether these currents remain in place to power those stars. Galactic currents are of low current density, but, because the sizes of the stars are large, the total current (Amperage) is high. An electrically powered Sun's radiated power would be due to the energy delivered by that amperage. As it travels around the galactic center the Sun may come into regions of higher or lower current density and so its output may vary both periodically and randomly.

| Jesus Christ is the way User ID: 2312772 12/27/2012 02:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Did God set a process in motion where the elements (atomic table) are built from the seed element of Hydrogen with a single proton in the nucleus? Hydrogen to Helium to Lithium to Beryllium up to the building blocks of life Carbon, Nitrogen and Oxygen where compounds form to support life? Or were the elements differentiated from the beginning? How do we account for the various deposits of such things as gold in the earth's crust, but the center is apparently of molten iron? How did such differentiation occur on the crust, but as you go deeper the indication is that fewer and fewer element variations occur? The transmutation of elements seems pretty obvious to me, and would support alchemy. |

Better yet, if the law of Physics require that for every action there must be an opposite and equal reaction, how did the Apollo missions propel through space with nothing to thrust off of? Either there is a yet undefined fabric in space or the whole proposition was a fraud because it would be similar to a ship sitting in the doldrums with no wind in its sails. |

I've heard of some glocks that can fire under water safely, didn't know all guns would fire under water most guns will 'fire' underwater, its really more about how well sealed the ammo is. Some won't strike the pin hard enough, because of the extra resistance. The problem is that the bullets have way to much friction in the water, and tend to fragment at or near the muzzle. Another problem is pushing the water out of the barrel sometimes causing over-pressure issues. What you might be looking for is one of these. [link to en.wikipedia.org] |

Good question; like the other questions "What powers the Sun?" or "Why is the center of the Earth so hot after billions and billions of years?" there is an answer. The Sun is drawing more energy than it needs to sustain it's physicality the "ignition" or what you see put out or expressed at it's surface is this extra energy in a different form. Same goes for the Earths volcanos spitting out the extra energy in the form of heat and molten rock. All matter draws from the field of energy we float in; us included. An "overdraw" is expressed as another form of energy than the invisible form it starts as. It is a good question, and many of the people who responded here were quick to facepalm and give the OP crap for not knowing the answer, but not one of them gave a decent answer. It seems that although they are quick to give the OP crap for asking the question, they don't actually know the answer themselves. |
