@AAAanomalies
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMCosmic filaments are made of ionized gas i.e. PLASMA i.e. it's ELECTRIC in and by nature. In the name of science and truth, you should explain what a cosmic filament is to everybody! Maybe a special video about them would be an eye-opener for many people! Because after that, EVERYONE knows that the universe is electric. Funny, how you emphasize that this being a real observation, and yet at the same time talk about totally fictional things like blackholes. No dark matter nor blackholes or any other FI-SCI needed to explain the universe. They are only needed to get your funding going… I guess, that even your telescope needs electricity in order to work….

02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMTHAT is the Electric/plasma universe for you.
@michaelwilliams6431
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMThis is evidence of the electric universe. Also the videos I seen where the sun got cables or filaments connecting to it.
@martinhastingsis
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMThe Universe is Electric and Alive, Not in an expanding decline. Black holes, Big burps, Dark matter are bs equations from overpaid nuances that refuse to accept that Nothing is in the empty space behind their eyes. Gravity, Electromagnetism and Light are all the same thing.

02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMMaybe the universe is like my experience of living abroad where the language was different. The better l spoke the language the more l realised l could never understand the people. As an eminent scientist once said, "the universe isn't as strange as we can imagine, it is far stranger"
@pinchopaxtonsgreatestminds9591
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMScientists understand nothing, because their maths is backwards, so you should replace "Confirms our understanding" with "Helps maintain our delusions"

02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMcould you find proof of other universes with this tech?
@BatMan-oe2gh
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMI see in the comments the crowd screaming electric universe theory as being the only answer. Well, the electric universe theory has not been proven.
The Electric Universe theory proposes that electricity is the primary driving force behind the entire universe. However, upon closer examination, there are several significant flaws in this theory that cast doubt on its validity. Firstly, the theory fails to adequately explain why stars are negatively charged. This contradiction suggests a fundamental misunderstanding of the observed data from our solar system and the wider universe.
Moreover, the Electric Universe theory lacks substantial scientific evidence and mathematical support. A scientific theory should be based on empirical observations, rigorous experimentation, and a sound mathematical framework. However, proponents of the Electric Universe theory struggle to provide convincing evidence that supports their claims, making it difficult to consider it a credible scientific theory.
In addition to the lack of evidence, the Electric Universe theory also fails to meet the criteria of scientific consistency and falsifiability. A reliable scientific theory should be internally consistent, providing a coherent explanation for observed phenomena. However, the Electric Universe theory relies on cherry-picking individual events and fails to provide a comprehensive and consistent framework for understanding the universe. Furthermore, the theory lacks falsifiability, which means it cannot be tested and potentially proven false through empirical observation or experimentation, another essential aspect of the scientific method.
In other words, the Electric Universe theory has no scientific facts and is only supported by conspiracy theorists.
@Xatrene
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMWhat makes me laugh out loud, is how the scientific community begins to 'scientifically' discover the presence of the Living Word of God…
I am waiting with baited breath when the penny will drop and they will begin to understand the following Truth… which the Triune Creator God of the Universe already has revealed to those who come to Him in HUMILITY and FAITH…
For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities.
All things were created through Him and for Him.
He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.

@ArchonOne
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMDon’t take credit for what the electric universe discovered and predicted. These are Birkeland currents. It is undeniable. Don Scott’s model is untouchable.
@ArchonOne
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMEven when they finally admit the EU was correct about birkeland currents, they are still trying to gaslight. WHAT is carrying that gas NASA? PLASMA is carrying ionized gas as an electric current. There is NO dark matter. There are NO black holes. Only plasmoids. Stop pretending. The math-based lunacy of the standard model is done.
@ArchonOne
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMDear physicists of the standard model. Will you have the basic decency to give credit where it is due and acknowledge Don Scott, and Wal Thornhill, and the rest of the electric universe model scientists you’ve been calling crazy for 50 years an apology? They need to be recognized for being right when ALL of you were wrong.

02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMIt's remarkable that the theoretical dark matter they keep referring to behaves exactly as Birkeland currents would.

@OurElectricHistory
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMMainstream ₱¥€N¢€ is a total FRAUD! Dark matter has never been detected therefore cant be predicted to form anything. These filaments are Birkeland currents in a dusty plasma because the universe is electric! Mainstream science has recently ADMITTED most of their current theories are "worthless" but as long as they keep getting money from "stupid taxpayers"…🤬
@SSMLivingPictures
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMAnytime I hear the words 'dark matter', I instantly say 'Nope'
@kimberleebrackley2793
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMDark matter. Yea, soot and dust. Dark energy, the filaments no one could see before.

02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMIt’s look like spinal of human body and then all over neurological tissue and veins all around from that look like spinal organs here and there up and down that is same like human body were like and blood vessels moving that blood with pressure here and there like a electrical activity going in and it’s same over body what I feel
@heitorchierentin6885
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMIn my cosmologic hypothesis, the Big-bang expansion is just an illusion. The Cosmos started with only a single Fundamental Particle, that, puted into motion, fragmented itself generating an exponential increasing number of new particles, dissolving his mass in gravitational force and creating growing space in that process.
According the Retro Expansion Theory, Universe doesn't expand outside its limit. That's an illusion. The internal space expands because of some "shrinkage" of all the fundamental particles, having themselves converted their former mass in gravity. In the same time, Cosmos remains always the same size.
Following this hypothesis, Universe began (as an initial single particle) with an unique density, maybe "1", instead of with some singularity of density trending to infinite. In Retro Expansion process, the relative density increases in all the descendants particles (themselves decreasing in size). In the same time, the relative density decreases in the whole space outside matter, while space itself "expands" in an illusory way.
According to my hypothesis, once derived from a single initial Fundamental Particle, the entire Universe would remain in some sense a single material body. This would explain the "spooky action at a distance", quantum entanglement. It would also explain the existence of the various fields (electromagnetic, gravitational, space-time, Higgs, etc.), since the "vacuum" would be nothing but the portion of the smallest density of the initial material. Background radiation would prove this.
"Dark matter" would correspond to the former matter diluted in the form of gravitational waves. "Dark energy" would correspond to the observable effect of Retroexpansivity, which is illusoryly perceived as expansion. The differences in measurements, the "Hubble tension", are due to the asymmetry and heterogeneity of the Cosmos, where different and gigantic gravitational centers counterbalancing dark energy/Retroexpansivity, impose a varied distancing in this constantly unfolding Universe.
According to the Retro Expansion Theory, with there being a constant conversion of matter into gravitational energy (consequently generating space), there would be a time present throughout the Universe, a minimum unit of time in which existing matter would be converted and multiplied into new particles. In this minimum unit of time, the phenomenon that I call "Correction" would occur, in which a universal quantum balance of all particles would instantly occur. It would be the minimum instant in which any phenomenon or physical law could be applied and corrected.
It's important to say that RET don't contradicts Relativity and its observable effects.
Beside that, in RET time is the "unfolding of matter". It's the observable effect of the inverted balance between the kinetic movement and the reactivity of matter. Time slows down because as objects moves fast the reactivity of its particles slows down too.
There's a "puntual time" where relativity occurs by this inverted balance, generating time distortion in the whole Universe.
In the same time, there's a present moment, a real "now", current in all the Cosmos. By that we can say that all the Universe is quatized and that there's a "minimum instant " of time in which occurs "Correction", the convertion of mass into gravity, generating space within the Cosmos.
By this reasoning, space emerges from internal density difference inside Cosmos.
That means that there's no physical space outside Universe.
Another important question. RET doesn't necessaryly suggest that light is instantaneous. It seems that, once we have space and distance between matter, we have fields occurring maybe instantaneously. But, as an wave generated from matter, light have its kinetic properties.
About space, as said, since there's no physical space outside Cosmos, the apparent internal expansion occurs as the particles get smaller, while the Universe remains the same original size.

Considering that material bodies are composed of known fundamental particles, the particles that constitute them would be subject to the same kinetic movement together with the moving body. The movement of the material body slows down time to these particles that compose it. This is what I call "Punctual Time", which is equivalent to the "proper time" that the object experiences on a macro scale. I call "reactivity" all the set of properties of elements and particles. By extension, these properties determine physical phenomena, nuclear reactions, chemical reactions, classical motion, etc. The acceleration of kinetic movement of the object would act in an inverse relationship with the most fundamental properties of matter, generating the effect of temporal dilation.
The Universe Retro Expansion Theory presupposes the conversion of matter into gravitational energy, with the consequent shrinkage of fundamental particles, as the cause of the apparent cosmic expansion. To do so, it presupposes, in addition to relativistic time, another type of time on a quantum scale. This time would be absolute and simultaneous throughout the Cosmos. It would also be graduated in a "minimal instant", this indivisible. In this minimum unit of time, the phenomenon that I call "Correction" would occur at the most fundamental material level. As fundamental particles lose mass converted into gravity, new particles appear in the generated space. But the constituent particles of the whole Universe would all maintain a quantum relationship whose balance would be updated every minimum unit of that time. The "Correction" process would occur gradually, moment by moment, indivisible in the meantime. So, despite the relativity of time for moving objects and observers, there would be at the most fundamental level of matter a universal time, a moment present throughout the Universe. This would be the main time reference to be based on.

02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMIf it's a hydrogen highway, we should build a passive propulsion system which uses hydrogen. If you could use the hydrogen as fuel and pick it up as you're traveling we could travel to cosmos via the highways
@Juicysmoolyay7259
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMYeah, I don’t know man it seems like every year the electric universe theory becomes more and more plausible. You got magnets now we know it’s electromagnetism switching like AC current systems Berklin current to connect the galaxies, I don’t know how we could discount this electrical universe theory especially you, Professor Dave.
And if you think about a human as some kind of android just remember, potassium calcium iron these are all metals so if you think that you’re not a robot made of metal, you need to think again and understand that these elements are METALS!!!!!!!! they are just a different softer form of metal think about that for a while
@MikePhilbin1966
02/18/2025 - 6:04 PMDid you say ELECTRIC UNIVERSE yet? If not, say it. By 'gas' you mean PLASMA i.e. ions + and –
