So they won't listen to the rest of what he's got to say.
Joey PhippsGUEST
42:15
But if you look at Birkeland currents and the way those work, it seems as though the sun is doing just fine feeding on plasma.
Joey PhippsGUEST
42:25
In labs, plasmas, plasmoids, plasmids, however you say it, David Bohm called them plasmids.
Joey PhippsGUEST
42:31
He also called them alive, by the way, because they eat electricity.
Raffaele-Antonio CastaldoGUEST
24:28
filamentary structure currents.
Raffaele-Antonio CastaldoGUEST
24:30
They're called Birkeland currents.
Raffaele-Antonio CastaldoGUEST
24:32
They form in plasma physics what they call a Z-pinch.
Raffaele-Antonio CastaldoGUEST
24:35
It's the Bennett pinch effect where there's these parallel electric currents that pull towards each other and they pinch them and the plasmas turn into a serpentine worm-like thread of extreme heat and current density.

You guys can research it yourself.
Raffaele-Antonio CastaldoGUEST

The way they move and and work they're like little worms little filaments right there when in plasma physics you have what's called high current electrical discharges and when you have high current electrical discharges in a vacuum or gas they don't propagate as rigid solid rods they move as these dynamic, writhing, snake-like, naga, winding-like, dynamic, filamentary structures.
Raffaele-Antonio CastaldoGUEST
39:31
They're filamentary currents, Birkeland currents.
Raffaele-Antonio CastaldoGUEST
39:34
And they are literally serpentine, worm-like threads of extreme heat, extreme temperatures.
UrbanHOST
96:23
Are these autonomous reconnaissance drones dispatched by Kordeluski clouds? Could be.
UrbanHOST
96:40
Birkeland currents in the cosmic web.
UrbanHOST
96:43
The universe isn't a vacuum, it's wired, which is why we covered all of the Ken Wheeler stuff.
UrbanHOST
96:49
Birkeland currents, or I think that's Birkeland.
UrbanHOST
96:52
Birkeland currents are giant superconducting plasma filaments spanning the cosmos, carrying information at near light speed.
UrbanHOST
97:01
The sun sends organized spiraling rivers of positive charge called procticity directly into the Earth's poles.
UrbanHOST
97:10
we are physically plugged into a universal electric circuit.
