They didn’t puzzle PC/EU proponents. In fact, they were predicted.https://www.astroblogs.nl/wp-content/up ... ow-Res.jpg
Thirty-five years ago, researchers discovered that around the center of our galaxy, there are mysterious long magnetic filaments. Their origin has perplexed scientists for decades – but new observations might change what we currently know about them.
You don’t say? And just a few decades ago, when such a thing was suggested, the mainstream in general was VERY skeptical.As reported in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, the new radio observations reveal that astronomers have only been looking at a small fraction of these filaments: There are at least 10 times more out there than previously known, pushing the total number to nearly 1,000 of these 150-light-year-long cosmic strands.
Is that the same thing as "ubiquitous", something else the mainstream was highly skeptical about?“We have studied individual filaments for a long time with a myopic view,” the paper's lead author and original discoverer of the filaments Farhad Yusef-Zadeh, from Northwestern University, said in a statement.
“Now, we finally see the big picture — a panoramic view filled with an abundance of filaments."
Only if you look outside mainstream thinking."This is a watershed in furthering our understanding of these structures."
Unfortunately, it would appear that you aren’t looking beyond mainstream gnomes.The discovery of so many filaments allowed the team to get more insights. For example, it seems unlikely that they are related to supernova remnants. It's more likely they are a product of Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy.
You don't say?However, there is still so much to find out. Why do they cluster? Why are they evenly spaced, like the string of a harp?
“They almost resemble the regular spacing in solar loops,” Yusef-Zadeh said.

Hmmmmm. Pairs, you say? Equally spaced, side by side? Like Birkeland currents?Stretching up to 150 light years long, the one-dimensional strands (or filaments) are found in pairs and clusters, often stacked equally spaced, side by side like strings on a harp.
Again, very curious. Almost like the filaments in a plasma focus?Filaments within clusters are separated from one another at perfectly equal distances
