A groundbreaking new scientific report provides dramatic confirmation of
our planet's dynamic electrical environment and the Earth-Sun connection.
Phys.org recently reported that the European Space Agency SWARM mission has
discovered, "Supersonic plasma jets high up in our atmosphere" that can push
temperatures up to almost 10,000 degrees Celsius. Attempting to provide historical
context for the discovery, the report states, "The theory that there are huge
electric currents, powered by solar wind and guided through the ionosphere by
Earth's magnetic field, was postulated more than a century ago by Norwegian
scientist Kristian Birkeland. While much is known about these current systems,
recent observations... have revealed that they are associated with large
electrical fields." In fact, in recent years the term "Birkeland Current" has
appeared with increasing regularity in mainstream scientific literature. Today,
professor Donald Scott discusses his own original modeling of a Birkeland Current
structure and he explores the significance of this new discovery from
the Electric Universe perspective. SWARM is a constellation of three satellites
designed to look at the geomagnetic field of Earth. They wanted to put some decent
sensors, better sensors than had ever been flown before, I guess, up, and to
investigate what exactly the properties of the of the Earth's geomagnetic field
were. It's encouraging that this recent article about SWARM not only mentions
the phrase Birkeland Current several times but it also talks about electric
fields. Well that's a word that almost never gets mentioned in the
establishment literature but it's getting to be fairly well-known that
electrical energy does indeed come from the sun to Earth in large tube-like
conduits that have, over the years, become known as Birkeland Currents.
The establishment usually only talks about magnetic and gravitational fields
but the all-important term "Electric Current" usually has been missing. This
latest SWARM article makes it appear that the establishment may have been quietly
listening to our ideas. Now of course, they're never going to give us credit
for it, they will now claim that they discovered everything and they will try to ignore the
existence of our prior claims but I think it's our duty, to ourselves and
that actually to posterity, to stake out those claims and say exactly what we
have said, in the past, about things like Birkeland Currents. I will say that
my model, which I hasten to say, is an extension of the work of some other
folks such as Hannes Alfven, who won the Nobel Prize in physics, and Anthony Peratt
and a fellow with a name Stig Lundqvist who actually started the work on this
model, back in 1950. That model predicts most, if not all, of what the
SWARM release refers to as their discoveries. It makes me a little bit
worried about whether they have ever heard of some of the people. Certainly
they had never heard of me but, you think, they might have heard of Hannes Alfven and
Tony Peratt and of course Kristian Birkeland. But anyway, in 2015, the
scientific journal "Progress In Physics" published an article of mine in which I
included the quantitative derivation of this model. I finished it off, where Lundquist
started it, and then I ended up developing the equations that describe
the physical structure of the Birkeland Current. Those equations must be interpreted to
follow, they follow up on what those equations predict about what the model
must look like. Lundquist, in spite of my giving him credit for coming up with
some of those equations; he never, like I guess most mathematicians don't,
interpreted what those equations predicted for what the Birkeland Current
would look like and how it would act. But the model, as I developed it, shows
the presence of electrical currents that flow in spiral paths in opposite
directions, those things were in that SWARM article. Oppositely directed
currents, yes, and the Birkeland current itself is made up of a set of and this is,
I think, the important point. The Birkeland Current is a set of concentric counter-
rotating cylinders of electrical current and magnetic fields. And the currents and
the fields are at all points in those Birkeland Currents parallel, they're
aligned. When you align the currents with the magnetic fields, the internal
stresses on the Birkeland Current relax and go to zero and that's what,
that's the single property that makes those Birkeland currents able to go over
tremendous distances, mean, we know they go from the sun to the earth, and that's
93 million miles. Well that's, that's nothing, that's a, that's a child's foot-
step for, compared to the astronomical distances in light years. Some of these,
so-called, jets from galaxies and they extend over and those currents don't come apart,
they don't spread out like that, like a garden hose will end up in a bunch of
droplets sprinkling over your lawn. They hang right together in collinear
alignment and that's, that's the reason they do. The formal name for a Birkeland
Current, really, is a field-aligned current. It's a force free current
because the fields are aligned. Anyhow, the SWARM article says, "Each satellite
has an (electrical) electric field instrument positioned at the front to
measure plasma density, drift and velocity." Well if that's indeed the truth,
then I would think they should have measured some kind of concentric counter-
rotation because the counter rotation is the prime property, as far as I'm concerned,
on the Birkeland Current. But either they haven't observed it or, if they did
observe it, they neglected to mention it. Maybe because they don't know why it
occurs. It's well known that the earth has a geomagnetic field. It's less well
known, but it's equally true, that the earth and many of the planets also have
their own electric field and the electric field that emanates
either to or from Earth is a very powerful electric field. The earth is, and
most of the planets I think are, also electrically charged. If
you sit down and analyze what that phrase means, supersonic plasma jets,
plasma is a word that defines a cloud-like collection of charges, you know,
plus ions, negative electrons, all going along and they're traveling along in a
cloud-like formation and a jet is a moving stream. It's a flow. So a
flow of charge. Well that's the definition of an electric current but we
already knew this. That's, that's what Birkeland himself, back in the early
nineteen hundreds, said was going on. That's what they laughed at him for saying.
