What if the great nebula clouds can create lightning? Jupiter has lots
of lightning.  Best to keep in mind these are very dark clouds,and are
only seen (appear) as clouds because they have a bright background of
stars.  Some stars do form and shine inside.   We know what creates
lightning and these dust filled clouds have all the right stuff.
DoubleA will confirm that when St Hellen erupted there was great
lightning flashes.  As I type this I am looking at a picture of the
eruption of the Chaiten volcano that shows the greatest lightning
flashes I have ever seen.  The lightning is created by friction of
particles in the ash cloud.  I predict when telescopes get more powerful
we will see lightning flashes in these nebular clouds   Another reason
for my picking up a Nobel   Bert

Except that  the "right stuff" is at an amazingly low density in
nebulae. If you went to a nebula and measured the atmosphere, it would
be about as dense as things in Earth orbit. From the inside, they do not
look like that nebula in The Wrath of Khan. The atoms of nebulas just
don't rub against one another the way they do in planetary clouds.

A nebula still has its own substance, and so can create lighting.
I am pretty sure about that, anyway.

I'll give you the facts for the space ship.  As soon as NASA and Congress
clear it, let's go there together and find out, O.K.?

I'm still waiting on BradBoi to start reporting from Venus.  lmao!

WOW!  It's HOT and the pressure is KILLING ME!  lmao!

Cactus Saul  Knowing Brad lack of science he would go to Venus in a lead
balloon   Go figure  Bert
Saul Levy - 23 Jul 2008 00:39 GMT
That would have to be a VERY HIGH-TECH balloon, BEERTbrain!  lmao!

Otherwise, he's DOOMED!  lmao!

DOOM AND GLOOM FOREVER!

A lead balloon would float in thorium.

Uh, poets and musicians vs. the stars?

Just like BradBoi's wacko claims, nothing will get verified that way!

But the Earth's axis has tilted more, Mark.  How can you be sure of
anything now?

Alexa has declared it!

There are bright nebula and dark nebula, BEERTbrain! lmao!

A Nobel for you?  Sure!  In your dreams!
