Driving Forces of the Milky Way
The core of our galaxy is a region
full of mysteries, including flares that can brighten the central area
by a factor of four in a few days or by a factor of two in forty
minutes.
From an electric universe point of view,
this is the most active expression of the electric power of the Milky
Way.
Dust veils most of the core of the Milky Way from
optical observations, but today's radio, infrared, ultraviolet and x-ray
telescopes uncover intriguing images and data about the activity at the
center of our home galaxy. It's a region full of mysteries, including
the remnants of an unexplained hyper-explosion a few thousand years ago
and flares that can brighten the central area by a factor of four in a
few days or by a factor of two in forty minutes.
From an electric
universe point of view, this is the most active expression of the
electric power of the Milky Way. This is where currents are focused from
the spiral arms down into a tiny donut-shaped plasmoid. From the center
of this plasmoid, electric currents spray out from the axis of the
galaxy, then return along the spiral arms, inducing magnetic fields and
lighting up the stars. The energy stored in the plasmoid is released in
prodigious outbursts of high speed particles and radiation, heralded by
explosive flares.
