The NASA spacecraft Voyager 1 has provided scientists on Earth
with a series of theory shattering surprises.
The probes Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 are now exploring
the outer boundary of the Sun's domain, called the heliosphere.
What the probes have encountered, was not what astronomers expected.
Through a series of surprises, astronomers have openly expressed
their complete bafflement over the Voyager data.
In a recent Wired.com piece, the lead author of the paper of the journal Science states:
"The models that have been thought to predict what should happen are all incorrect..."
"We essentially have absolutely no reliable road map of what to expect at this point".
Let's begin by addressing the predictions of the standard model of the heliospheric
boundary and how that model compares to the predictions of the Electric Universe.
Was two things, one is that it's regarded by physicists
as being purely a mechanical shock effect
that like a boat plowing through water or an aircraft going supersonic.
The theory that supplied to the behavior of magnetic field at the boundary
relies on magneto hydrodynamics, which Alfvén pointed out,
is an invalid theory to use for plasma in space.
Now, one of the problems that struck is that the magnetic field didn't change direction,
when they felt they may have left the heliosphere
and according to the shock front theory, of course, the magnetic field will be
diverted around to pull of the shock, insted of that it just continued on.
Now, there's also a bland expectation that the magnetic field
spirals out simply because of the rotation of the Sun.
When you consider that the Sun is a tiny speck, like the Sun was a pencil point
the heliosphere is about 20 feet in diameter
and they're saying that this tiny litle rotating speck of dust
is causing this magnetic field to spiral out.
What they haven't considered is that
that spiral is the same kind of spiral currents you see in spiral galaxies
and that, therefore, the effect is being driven from outside the heliosphere
and not from within.
There is also the other aspect of the boundary that is the unexpected
slow down of the solar wind before they reach this circle boundary,
the change in the nature of the energetic particles at that boundary.
All these things can have an explanation, simple explanation, in terms of plasma sheaths
which imply an electric current flowing between the galaxy and our Sun.
And this, of course, is part of the...
that's the basis of the electrical model of the powering the Sun.
So, the evidence that they are discovering at this boundary
with the interstellar space is all indicative of electrical interactions
at that boundary, which is exactly what was expected.
NASA's IBEX mission shed new and astounding light on the outer heliosphere
when it discovered an unexpected ribbon of energetic neutral atoms.
Principal investigator David McComas States
"The thing that's really shocking is this ribbon;
our previous ideas about the outer heliosphere are going to have to be revised"
When the IBEX mission was proposed,
I wrote two years before the space probe was launched,
that on the basis of these ideas, standard expectations of a cometary interface
with the interstellar medium would not be met
and, of course, when the IBEX mission finally began to return the information
from beyond the heliosphere, in another words,
our actual interaction region with interstellar space
they were completely blown away, it was completely unexpected.
Under the electrical model, the Sun occupies
interstellar space, which has a magnetic field,
that magnetic field is indicative of an electrical current flowing
within our region in the galaxy
and also gives the direction of that electric current flowing past the Sun,
and it's quite different from the mechanical direction of the Sun.
If you look at the Sun as being a boat plowing through water,
the material that is being shed by the Sun in the form of the solar wind
should, when it meets this oncoming flow from the galaxy,
be diverted and flow back around it just like the wake of a boat
but this is not what was found.
My view was that we only had to look at nearby stars
and even distant supernovae, those which have lit up their environment,
and the best example of that is the planetary nebulae with their hourglass shape
and this was the kind of interface that I was expecting.
And, of course, the hourglass shape has a neck, a narrower neck,
and that neck, when you look at supernovae explosions,
in particular supernova 1987a, that classical one
which has that has a ring of beads around its equatorial region,
I expected that kind of interface and that was precisely what the
ENA, the Energetic Neutral Atom, results from the IBEX mission showed.
And also the fact that they changed rapidly over a period of weeks or months,
which shows that the region is fairly thin,
this is totally unexpected and unexplained by any standard model
but this is the kind of thing you expect from Birkeland currents,
which are thin filaments of current and it depends also on the materials flowing
through them whether it lights up and gives these bright beads
that were found around the solar system and their variation in time.
The other thing that surprised the researchers was the breadth they covered, these glowing regions
that were returning the energetic neutral atoms.
Now, this is not expected on the basis of the solar wind
interacting with something out there, but it is expected electrically.
So, it was a huge confirmation of the electrical model of the Sun at its outer boundaries.
