Planets move in a plasma - and through electromagnetic fields of other bodies. The 'fun' comes when they exchange charge. watchers.news/2017/08/08/electrical-planetary-scarring You can see some of the literal world 'building' well maybe this often just looks like world destruction - holoscience.com/wp/spiral-galaxies-grand-canyons Read Velikovsky 'Worlds in Collision' which is from the start of the space age, a semininal work of non-fiction which inspired the movie "when worl | |

| Oct 9, 2014 at 18:09 | comment | added | Twelfth | I would have to research more for a full answer...but I don't think the setup could exist. The Earth itself is decently electrically charged, it's the electrical flow through the molten core that results in our magnetic field. To have the entire planet negative or positively charged...I dunno. The sun is heavily charged as well. Need some more research time...it'd be interesting answering this question with the assumption that this could exist. | |
