talk about throwing a hand grenade into a bees nest.
i never once said that planets orbit according to electrostatics.
you lot are lucky I am txting from my phone, my reply would really make some unhappy campers!
but in essence I'm inclined towards an electrodynamic cause of planetary...
now, as for the subject of this thread, reading birkeland's report suggests that fitting a solid sphere with a solenoid to emulate a planet's mag field, then he applies a voltage difference across the sphere. he starts to see strange effects that simulate the Earth aurora and under different...
i had submitted these question(other threads) to this forum hoping to get some sort of educated discussion and sanity some ideas. if you're happy with accepted ideas of science and tech, and afraid of sailing too close to the edge of the world, i politely ask you not add to this thread.
Well if I had all the answers, I wouldn't be on a forum asking questions.
And I am versed in the theories of gravity, but they're only theories. It's why no-one has been able to manipulated gravity yet. A case of barking up the wrong tree.
Fragmented evidence spanning the last 200 years...
Hmmm,
Assumed(wikipedia) surface temp of Mercury 700K (426.85'C).
Melting point of rock (assuming mechanism of planetary degregation):
900-1200'C.
I guess I need to find more info on thermal erosion.
Oh ok.
So why would radioactivity be higher as you get deeper? Has anyone done any sort of mining to show this to be the case?
What would induce the core tidal forces? I know the Moon is supposed to control the surface ocean waves.
you mention:
What experimental evidence has been...
Hi Borek,
Thanks for your reply.
Firstly then, what causes the heating?
Secondly, I don't fully understand why the core should be solid. If the core has less mass and the same amount of heat around it, then shouldn't the core change phase more easily?
The only way I can see the...
Hi,
Is there a device that can attract alpha or beta particles and focus them on a point.
Something like the reverse of a CRT tube for electrons.

Hi,
Has anyone in recent times reproduced the experiments of Kristian Birkeland, WRT to his Saturn effect using his terrella?
If so what were the conditions?
Adam
Hi Guys,
This may seem like a stupid question but if the Earth gets hotter the closer to the core you get, then why is the inner core apparently solid? Yet the outer core is liquid?
They are both (inner/outer cores) made of roughtly the same stuff, and assuming pressure alone is what...
Thanks for the reply.
So if the electron beam starts to curl in a field, would it mean that the wire (or the current in the wire) tend to curl too? what experiments have been done to prove/disprove this?
Would the wire twist perhaps?
Hi guys,
This may be a daft question (or set of questions), but I just want to bounce a few ideas off the wall once I understand some simple issues.
Can anyone tell me why if you pass a current through a wire in a magnetic field, the wire will move perpendicular to the both the current...
Hi Cosmo Novice,
I do accept that the disc is beyond the event horizon, otherwise we wouldn't see the stuff.
The essence of the 2 questions are:
1) Why shape the matter around the BH as a disc? (esp around what may appear to be an equator); Why not suck matter in from all directions...
