Charge as an actor at planetary distances?
LOL, Clare, you just outed yourself as an idiot.
You should stick to astrology. That's really more your speed.
Quoting: Returner 973658Actually, you have just absorbed a split-minded training on this.
Of course there's charge; and there are reasons that it hasn't been acknowledged: Newton didn't point it out (historical reasons at the time) and subsequent electromagnetic discoveries, predicted by Velikovsky, were not predicted by the others, and when discovered, were not theoretically worked out. They were merely grafted onto non-charge Newtonian mass physics. But electromagnetics are never static: they leave charge.
It would seem, instead, therefore, that the NON-PHYSICAL full implications of electromagnetics have not been thought through by the educational system, is all. This is typical in history, though. As is resistance.
There is one other thing to say here, however: Newton's mere descriptive algebra (not a full theory about HOW, as he admitted) for mass-related gravity, may in fact have conflated both mass-gravity AND electromagnetism.
By the way, the main test has never been done. It can be found in the Velikovsky correspondence with Einstein. Einstein's near-deathbed request to perform it was never done, by astrophysicists who resisted as you are.
Not directly testing is a non-answer, not an answer to whether it is so. Of course.
And no, I am not an astrologer.
