<p>As a layman only introduced to this subject recently, it seems as though there is a lot of argument of semantics as opposed to arguments of science when this subject comes up.</p><p>But based upon my very basic understanding of the subject matter, I have a few questions:</p><p>1) It seems as though Plasma Cosmology and EU Theory are being used interchangeably, but what material I can find on Alfven's work does not make many of the claims associated with EU Theory. &nbsp;Also the characterization of Electric Universe as a theory suggests it is backed up with fundamental physics and math, but that does not appear to the be case. &nbsp;At best EU Theory seems to be backed up with correlative, qualitative argument, which frankly makes it more of a thought experiment than a theory.</p><p>2) When it comes to Alfven's Plasma Cosmology, at best it seems to be out of date and incomplete. &nbsp;It also appears to be largely based upon correlative observation, not predictive mathematics. &nbsp;While an interesting hypothesis, it appears to lack the rigor of the scientific method.</p><p>3) Several substantial roadblocks seem to stand of the way of Plasma Cosmology (not to mention EU "theory") including the incapability to mathematically predict recorded data as opposed to visually correlating observable phenomenon. &nbsp;For instance the data collected by the COBE satellite was predicted by traditional Big Bang cosmology, and does not appear to be supported by Plasma Cosmology. &nbsp;Until some of these fundamental issues are resolved, I don't see why there needs to be any additional discussion of Plasma Cosmology. &nbsp;If it cannot back up verifiable data with physics and math, what's the point in arguing about it?</p><p>4) There are some substantial philosophical difficulties surrounding the notion of the universe having always existed, and I admittedly am not aware of what role temporal causality plays in Plasma Cosmology since it appears to depart from the notions of general relativity so drastically.</p><p>&nbsp;</p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

</span>Their cosmology theory is based upon the application of MHD theory to objects in space as described in Alfven&rsquo;s book Cosmic Plasma, published in 1981.<span>&nbsp; </span>Alfven and F&auml;lthammar have also written many papers on this topic, including Alfven&rsquo;s introductory paper entitled &ldquo;Cosmology Of The Plasma Universe&rdquo;.<span>&nbsp; </span><span>&nbsp;</span>Cosmic Plasma is the second of two books published by Alfven, the first being the work that won him the Nobel Prize in Plasma physics called Cosmical Electrodynamics published in 1963 (second edition).<span>&nbsp; </span>Alfven was not only the creator of MHD theory, he was also one of the first individuals to create a cosmology theory that is based upon MHD theory.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">EU <strong>cosmology theory</strong> is founded upon empirical physics with roots that actually begin with the lab work of Kristian Birkeland (1867-1917) in the early 1900&rsquo;s. <span>&nbsp;</span>Birkeland lived in Norway and was fascinated by the aurora.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>He and some close friends undertook a polar expedition in 1902-1903 to collect in-situ measurements of the Earth&rsquo;s polar magnetic field alignments during solar storms.<span>&nbsp; </span><span>&nbsp;</span>Birkeland meticulously took in-situ measurements of the polar aurora and his empirical work with terellas in a vacuum and he published a two volume set in 1908 entitled The <em><span style="font-style:normal">Norwegian Aurora Polaris Expedition 1902-1903.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>In this work he describes some of the hardships he and his companions endured to take in-situ ground measurements of the magnetic fields of Earth during aurora activity.<span>&nbsp; </span>In his volumes, he also explains in great detail, his various terrela experiments. <br /></span></em></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-style:normal">During Birkeland&rsquo;s lifetime it was assumed that space was pretty much an empty vacuum.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Birkeland was one of the first to propose that the universe is filled with electrons and flying electric ions and was filled with plasma.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>More importantly. his physical experiments in the lab enabled him to make some key &ldquo;predictions&rsquo; about the nature of space that were later born out in modern satellite measurements.<span>&nbsp; </span>For instance, Birkeland believed that the sun was discharging from it&rsquo;s cathode surface to the more positively charged heliosphere.<span>&nbsp; </span>He believed that this discharge process would create high speed particles that interact with the Earth&rsquo;s magnetosphere.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>He also &ldquo;predicted&rdquo; and wrote about high energy discharges in the solar atmosphere as a result of this ongoing discharge process between the sun&rsquo;s surface and the heliosphere.<span>&nbsp; </span><span>&nbsp;</span>He also &ldquo;predicted&rdquo; and wrote about &ldquo;jets&rdquo; in the solar atmosphere and also described the tornado like filaments he observed in his experiments that are today known and &ldquo;Birkeland currents&rdquo;.<span>&nbsp; </span>All of these observations have also been observed in modern satellite images.<span>&nbsp; </span>While Birkeland did give mathematical expression to his theories, they were somewhat complicated, and &ldquo;messy&rdquo;. </span></em></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-style:normal">Despite the empirical verification of Birkeland&rsquo;s ideas in a lab, and it&rsquo;s many interesting and unique predictions, Chapman&rsquo;s &ldquo;empty space&rdquo; theories continued to prevail in mainstream thinking for many decades until satellites launch into space in the sixties finally demonstrated the presence of vertical electrical currents in the Earth&rsquo;s upper polar atmosphere. <br /></span></em></p> <p><em><span style="font-style:normal">Alfven later built upon Birkeland&rsquo;s early discharge experiments by applying MHD theory to many of these same topics described by Birkeland and by giving them a more detailed mathematic expression in terms of MHD theory.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp;

<p>I thought you said that Birkeland was completely separate from EU.&nbsp; <strong>Why does your version of EU include Birkeland???</strong></p><p><strong>WTF?</strong></p><p>Edited&nbsp; - I guess we are allowed to discuss Birkeland, but not his model of the sun - so ignore this post.</p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

That is the assertion that needs to be addressed to justify your view of EU! <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.
