Eye of the Storm, Part 9
Ground Currents by Andrew Hall In the past few chapters of Eye of the Storm, we've looked at surface conductive discharge and the landforms it creates. Ground-to-ground, surface conductive discharges formed river channels, fractured the land with arc blast, built mountains, ripped them apart, and induced electric winds that competed ...
Eye of the Storm, Part 8
Dragon Rules by Andrew Hall According to consensus science, ancient cultures across the planet -- with no communication between them -- independently and spontaneously invented dragons. Remarkably, they all invented the same physical description and modus operandi: a fire breathing serpent, origin in the sea, havoc across the land, and ...

Eye of the Storm, Part 6
The Great Red Spot by Andrew Hall In Part Five of this series, we looked at "bootprint" craters and found there are cyclones raging on Jupiter right now that can explain them. Shock wave patterns in the crater rims provided confirming evidence. We also looked at California's mountain and valley ...
Eye of the Storm, Part 5
Large Scale Wind Structuresby Andrew Hall In previous articles, we established a link between the winds of Jupiter and landforms on Earth. In primordial times, Earth's weather was like Jupiter's, with raging plasma whirlwinds and segregated electric jet streams that attained supersonic speeds. Close examination of mountains and other landforms ...
Solar Energy is Our Future
Solar Energy is Our Future by Mathias Hüfner Climate change is forcing our society to switch from fossil fuels to climate neutral fuels. Wind energy and photovoltaic will not be enough to satisfy the growing hunger for energy of an ever larger world population. As a result, nuclear energy comes ...
