The relationship between the magnetic field and the atmospheric density of celestial bodies.

submitted by usedoilanalysis to Fluiddynamics 1 yearApr 12, 2023 19:36:17 ago (+2/-1)     (Fluiddynamics)

The moon, absolutely devoid of a magnetic field, no atmosphere. Mars, nearly no magnetic field, nearly no atmosphere. Jupiter, massive, huge magnetic field, extremely dense atmosphere. Saturn, ditto, Neptune, Your fucking asshole, ditto. Mercury supposedly has a magnetic field, but it's really close to the sun, maybe it does have an atmosphere, who knows. The sun, astronomical magnetic field, atmosphere to match, check. Earth, moderately strong magnetic field, moderately dense atmosphere, so far so good. Venus? It's less dense, but what it lacks in density, it makes up for in volume. Where Earth's field is Apple shaped, Venus is more voluminous and shaped like a comet with its tail. It too has an atmosphere.

Is gravity and the magnetic field of a celestial body related? After all, either could be used to explain the atmospheres of these bodies.

Have you ever heard of James McCaney (sp?). He used to have a site that predicted planet X based on magnetic interactions with the planets.

I have not.

He's long gone AFAIK, but he's the reason I was a SOHO watcher for years, and never once fell for global warming.

Well he was dead wrong. If planet X (Nibiru) existed, the solar system would destabilize. It's Neptune sized by what people falsely think. It would have disastrous gravititonal effects. Even if it was far away, it's large enough that the asteroid belt would not be as circular as it is.

That's definitely down the alley of /v/ElectricUniverse

It could be, It's difficult to determine where it ends.

It has very little to do with atmosphere, and much more with now much iron is in the planets' core. What do you think creates magnetism?

Are you sure? How come every planet with a strong magnetic field has an atmosphere to match?

Very sure, no iron, no magnetism. They teach that in elementary school.

Also, the sun does not have an atmosphere. It's gases surrounding a celestial body, not gasses combsuting.

You can have magnetism without iron, iron makes it work much better, but magnetic fields affect all things, particularly cloud seeding. The sun very much has an atmosphere. The sun does not combust so much as it acts like a lightbulb, current passes through it and the resistance gives off light. The strength of its magnetic field basically ionizes the material in the atmosphere to plasma. The sun is like a huge welding torch, but big as FUCK, like you don't comprehend how big that sucker is, and it's a welding torch with the amperage cranked up to high holy heaven.

Magnetism is made by electric current flowing through a circuit. Magnetism and electricity are intertwined.
