Thunderstorms create radioactivity

Thunderstorms create radioactivity

A new study, published this week in Nature, shows that thunderstorms can also produce radioactivity by triggering nuclear reactions in the atmosphere. This may sound like the plot of a blockbuster science fiction disaster. But in reality, it’s nothing to worry…

Influx of Earth-bound positrons must have exotic origin, study suggests

Influx of Earth-bound positrons must have exotic origin, study suggests

The excess positrons arriving at Earth must have a more exotic origin than nearby pulsars, report researchers. Their results are based on observations from the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) gamma-ray observatory in Mexico, which detects the shower of…

The emerging new physics myth of quark fusion

The emerging new physics myth of quark fusion

The emerging new physics myth of quark fusion is far more complicated than the myth of thermonuclear furnace that believed to exist at the core of our star. However, the fantasy notion of quark fusion is supposed to involve the fusion of elementary particles known…

Electrical planetary scarring

Electrical planetary scarring

In Part 1 of this presentation, co-founder and CTO at Thrival Tech, Garrett Hill, introduced his experimental research into the electrical scarring of planets and moons. Within a growing community of investigators, a conceptual foundation has been laid for an…

Breakthrough discovery: Every quantum particle travels backwards

Breakthrough discovery: Every quantum particle travels backwards

Mathematicians at the Universities of York, Munich and Cardiff have identified a unique property of quantum mechanical particles – they can move in the opposite way to the direction in which they are being pushed. In everyday life, objects travel in the same…

Bioelectricity, morphology and electroceuticals – Electricity of Life

Bioelectricity, morphology and electroceuticals – Electricity of Life

What if there is a "bioelectric code" along with the genetic code? Thanks to determined work at the Levin Lab, some ideas in biology that were culturally disbelieved are now beginning to dawn on the mainstream consciousness in academia… with…

Stars: Electrically connected and externally powered

Stars: Electrically connected and externally powered

In Part One of this presentation, Dr. Michael Clarage began his analysis of a recent landmark discovery which shows a "surprising" relationship between sunspots and solar flares. As Dr. Clarage explained, the discovery that solar flares seem to have a…

Another “impossible” neutron star

Another “impossible” neutron star

What is a so-called neutron star? Scientists tell us that the material left over from a supernova explosion of a massive star collapses gravitationally, forming an incredibly small yet massively dense star mostly composed of tightly packed neutrons. A rotating…

Earth’s surface acts like liquid after deadly asteroid impact

Earth’s surface acts like liquid after deadly asteroid impact

A new research of a large 66 million years old asteroid crater, likely responsible for wiping out the dinosaurs and majority of other life on Earth, revealed how such impacts can cause a surface to behave like liquids, thus possibly providing habitats for emerging…
