This will bring the Steady State and Expanding universe debate back to the forefront of physics again. Have you heard of Christian Birkland? What they are calling plasma filamentation has been known as a Birkland Current for a long time now. It explains a lot more of the observable and verifiable universe than all of the mental models ever could.

Have you ever heard of the Primer Field videos? They are not well known, but I came across them years ago and they are some of the most interesting things I've seen in physics for a long time. They are part of this topic. I highly recommend watching them all.

He claims, in one of the videos, to have made several more of these videos. I wish he would post them. Fascinating stuff, things like this along with JWST is going to rewrite a lot of physics.

@Dwayne Parsons I haven't but a read a book by Eric Lerner entitled The Big Bang Never Happened, many moons ago. I listened to the arguments that the distant galaxies we observed were small and irregular, then I saw nearby galaxies through Chandra, which saw them in the UV and they looked EXACTLY like those distant small and irregular galaxies and at that point it occurred to me WHY they looked small and irregular, Chandra was a UV observatory, it was only seeing the hot young star formation regions, and likewise that was all we were seeing of these distant galaxies. Now the James Webb proved my hypothesis on this particular note correct by observing fully formed immense elliptical galaxies at red shifts of 14+ because being able to observe in the 5 micron region it can see what originated from these galaxies as visible light. Now we still need a mechanism to explain the red-shift beyond Doppler shift, and I'm sure Doppler shift does happen with respect to local velocity differences, but something else has to explain it on cosmological scales, and I suspect whatever that is that is sapping energy from these photons over great distances is also the source of the so-called cosmological background radiation. Still some unexplained mysteries but one missing mechanism is easier to explain than unobservant dark matter, dark energy, cosmological constant, and half a dozen other fudge factors that attempt to make the big bang work. But man is arrogant and always wants to be at the center of everything, even time. So just like Galileo struggled bringing us out of the center of the solar system thus we shall continue the struggle to bring us out of the center of time and space.

Dark matter, energy, and black holes are all the fudge factors that you have to use to make the standard model work. The primer fields provides magnetic explanations to all three, with examples and repeatable results using empirical data AKA science.

Magnetism is around 30k (not sure of the exact number) times stronger than gravity and explains away the need for all three fudge factors. How fact based things like the Primer Fields have been relegated to the fringe is insanity.

The electric universe offers a lot more tangible evidence based results, not just purely mathematics, but natural science. Actual action reaction type of stuff. Things abandoned after Newtonian physics.

"Now we still need a mechanism to explain the red-shift beyond Doppler shift, and I’m sure Doppler shift does happen with respect to local velocity differences, but something else has to explain it on cosmological scales, and I suspect whatever that is that is sapping energy from these photons over great distances is also the source of the so-called cosmological background radiation."

Basically, I can't find the exact article at the moment, so I'll paraphrase from memory. He believes that red shift is actually measuring the light from the plasma that makes up the galaxies. It's the cause of the red shift measurement. Which is at the heart of the expanding universe theory. That one measurement. This gives a mechanism to falsify that assumption.
