  • - well I'll be john brown, plasma craters, hmm.

  • fantastic 5*

  • lol that is the point

    your science teacher will tell you comets made craters

  • thank you i did some research and now it makes a very good sense to me. The ultimate cathode would be a center of a galaxy with it's own ultimate "heliopause"..

    and the comets start do discharge only when are getting close enough to the sun (the plasma environment is much denser there)

    it seems that any planet also being a "cathode" with it's own "heliopause" formed by their own weak magnetic field.

    i wonder how far such box-within a box structure can go.. what forms intergalactic medium?

  • It does if you imagine it this way. The sun is an Anode, and the heliopause is a 'virtual cathode'. Inside our solar system is millions of ions. As you approach the anode it has a stronger and denser electric field. A comet is on a long path through that field. Not like the relatively benign path like the earth. The comet must discharge as it is in balance (charge-wise) with the out reaches of the solar system and as it comes in it has to regain equilibrium.

  • lunar and other craters might not be made by asteroids.. hint hint

  • does it means moon also had atmosphere? otherwise where all these discharges came from?

    ps

    i dont understand why comet's "discharge" into space looks the way it looks.. why is it so prolonged in time (constantly discharging?! wtf) and bright? doesnt make sense at all. i mean the plasma environment aka solar wind is not dense enough to create such glow

  • Mars and the Moon were fairly lifeless. Mars was struck for eons prior to us. So much so it's atmosphere is gone.

  • mmm? i wonder if this means the moon saved us from venus while folks on mars died or were moved via an outside source (if there was a contemporary civilization of "humans" on mars)?

  • woooo i see is eletricity making craters

    i'm probably not getting the main point but i'm still amused
