Hello all,

I sorta came across these theories while looking into the history of Nikola Tesla and his theories on Radiant Energy. Now it's been a few years since my college physics courses but I read plenty of sci-fi and have an active imagination. I can't really tell if this model works but there seem to be a number of people with titles writing on the subject.
So here are some claims I've come across. Dissect at will!
A diffuse plasma field can conduct current without the need for collisions. As ions stray out of position, they are driven back into position by the em field of the rest of the surrounding plasma. Plasmas held in a tube cunduncting current have been found to demonstrate 3 states based on the current density (highest to lowest) Dark Current, Normal Glow, and Arc.
The sun is not a giant fusion reactor that has heat come from the core in convection. The sun's corona produces temperatures up to 2,000,000 K but sunspots reveal that the lower photosphere is much cooler at around 6000 K. If instead current is being passed outwards from the suns center (current from an outside source?), a surrounding plasma field will demonstrate the dark current, normal glow, and arc effects based on the charge density passing through successively larger spherical shells.
Electric discharges on planetary, lunar, or asteroid structures leave behind circular craters as the discharge will be 90 degrees from the surface. If all craters were caused by material collisions, one might expect to see a number of non-circular craters caused by off-center hits. Close up views of asteroids show large numbers of circular craters.
Earth acts a massive self repairing, leaky capacitor from a charge differential between "ground" and the planet's ionosphere. Lightning bolts caused by this voltage differential. Earthquakes caused by subsurface lightning effect. Anyone seeing a connection to Tesla here?
Planetary magnetospheres can interact when they are close enough and in the correct positions. This may be responsible for ancient catastropies on earth when passing through Venus's "tail".
Based on observed redshift and the theories of Hubble, we have believed ourselves to be within an expanding universe. If stellar and galactic redshifts can be caused by another process besides distance and velocity, the expanding universe model needs to be reexamined. Halton Arp points to observations of a galactic flare from NGC 3516 which appears to have ejected two redshifted quasars. He describes a quantifiable intrinsic redshift that seems related to the age of the quasar (young not old).
Now this sort of thinking has also gotten Creationists working on how they can use this to bring us back to a 6000 year old Earth which leads me to some skeptism. In addition most of the sites describing these models have several books to sell. I'm not ready to start worshiping the all powerful universal current stream or flux capacitor, but I do feel somewhat motivated to explore ways of tapping into this radiant energy.
So what do you think?
