Galaxy Filaments
In an Electric
Universe, the observed association of non-thermal radio
filaments (NRF's) with star-forming regions is expected.
The region
within 900 light-years of the Milky Way Galaxy's core is
crisscrossed with glowing filaments 1 to 3 light-years thick
and 10 to 100 light-years long. They are a recent discovery,
known only since the invention of modern radio and infrared
telescopes that can "see" through the visually opaque dust
clouds shrouding the galaxy core. The latest radio telescope
probes of this region show that the filaments are associated
with pockets of star-formation. Researchers admit that the
exact mechanism that creates the filaments remains to be
discovered, but they suggest that one possibility is the
collision of winds blown off by individual stars.
For the Electric Universe, the association of non-thermal
radio filaments (NRF's) with star-forming regions is
expected. However, the argument is turned on its head. The
filaments are gigantic Birkeland Currents--transmission
lines feeding electric energy into star-forming regions and
the galactic center. They are the prime cause of star
formation and other activity at the galactic center, not an
effect. All star-forming regions--even all individual
stars--have similar filaments. The majority of the filaments
are not seen in normal light. They are detectable only by
their influence on the gas and dust stretching between the
stars. But in a few places, including the region near the
galactic core, electric power is concentrated so that the
star-feeding currents glow. Since the power source is
electrical, a gravitational black hole is not needed to
explain the energy pouring from the focus of galactic
currents at Sgr A.
