thunderstorm does not equal earthquake storm.
Still want to know what the changes are in the rules.
did you find anything real?
China Lake was contractor heaven for deep state and cabal posers-in-the-way fake science and engineering. A place for visitors to come from all over the world. 'Graft Heaven'
the border is in the water
people windsurf, ya, know.
if a general goes out too far and he comes back later in the day, he might get approached by Troopers on the beach when he surfs back . . . just saying . . . who don't know whose car is his.
and he went all the way out to the border . . . he might have some 'splaning perhaps.
but once they see who it is they'd be like 'Sir' and he'd be like Troopers. and it would be a wonderful morning.
how come the distraction and confusion Sci Fi shills don't get that the 'black sun' could just turn on at any moment (in the story)
and if you ever see a vandergraph generator you know what happens when you turn that on.
you see lightning in a glass jar?
you see lightning bolting along the fringes of the metal. It's contained.
lightning in a jar?
lightning in a room?
lightning in the sky.
did you ever fly along the edge of a thunderstorm while in an airliner?
you get a whole new point of view, the lightning as popcorn. you do weather the storm.
so the narrative could be 'suddenly, due to comet vomit, we get a 'turning of effect' where the dark sun turns on, that glaring light bulb that will be the emergency if yuo ever needed it but you never use it because the other lights are so much better.
it glares, it burns, it flashes thunder.
very scary
it's a story.
threshold, like a diode. I'd rather die old than die young (a morbid electronics koan?)
so threshold is passed, sun turns back on. when the comet leaves there is a chance it might turn the new sun off, other wise we have to figure out how to do that ourselves?
fiction. if I do I say 'I write fiction, like what is here'
I write fiction, like what this is.
if the dark sun does turn on then what happens? a plasma stream between the two suns? and then watch out if Earth moves near it while in orbit? the stream would be 'caught' by the other objects and planets, much the same way that lightning works?
everyone has theories of double stars, but no one has a useful plasma model of how the energy transfers between them. or at least not a public one.
electronic ignition is much better than points, and allows the engines last a lot longer and be far more reliable and efficient.
I do agree, though, that for some systems it makes sense for it be physical, like the transmission or the power or the steering.
