It is losing mass due to ice sublimating. post stars with the physical fact that
comets lose mass because the ice that is detected (and that Sol88 says they have by citing many mainstream
ice and dust comet papers stating that
) will sublimate when heated by the Sun. There will be additional mass loss from dust being ejected from
ice and dust nuclei.
Testing a crackpot cult's fantasies is never a good use of funds. We have visited asteroids with spacecraft capable of measuring electric fields and there was nothing out of the mainstream found. Those spacecraft include
Rosetta ("asteroids 21 Lutetia and 2867 Šteins")
!
His cult has a delusion that a massive solar electric field turns basically what are asteroids into comets. What makes that a delusion is that we have looked at and catalogued hundreds of thousands of asteroids and none of them are comets
! There are a few
active asteroids that have visual characteristics similar to comets (comae, tails) due to various processes.
But according to the cult dogma, all asteroids or at least hundreds of thousands of asteroids in similar orbits to active asteroids must be comets.
EC predicts that 605,650 asteroids should be comets (23 August 2013 - updated the numbers)!
Sol88 cannot explain this because "And all because you got conned by a couple of scientifically illiterate Velikovskians." These are the fantasist
David Talbott spinning physically impossible fairy tales from his fantasies about myths and the documented liar and deluded Hollow Earth, gravity and nuclear forces are electromagnetic, textbook electromagnetism is wrong! ("orbits of sub-subatomic charges within the electrons and protons"*) believer
Wal Thornhill (note his physics degree).
It is Wal Thornhill's recent
The Electric Universe Heresy fantasies and lies that show that he has become deluded about physics and implies his cult's dogma deluded since he is their prophet denying the physics he has learned.
He is deluded about electromagnetism. It is well known physics that orbiting charges are accelerating, emit radiation and spiral into the central body (Larmor radiation). That is why atoms cannot be classical electrons physically orbiting a nucleus. Atoms would exist for a very short timescale. Applying this deluded physics to electrons is worse. Elections have never been seen to decay and are extremely small (may even be point particles).
He is deluded about gravity and nuclear forces being electromagnetism. Gravity does not depend on charge and is not shielded. Nuclear forces act between neutral neutrons and are attractive between positive protons.
Nucleons contain 3 quarks as shown by physical evidence not whatever "sub-subatomic charges" he imagines.
There are blatant lies such as "we have no evidence that neutrons exist in the nucleus".
deuterium is twice the mass of hydrogen with the a single proton in the nucleus. Radioactive elements emit neutrons from the nucleus.
A neutron are a "transient coupling of an electron and proton" delusion when the spins make this impossible. The proton and electron spins of 1/2 add up to 0 or 1. A neutron is spin 1/2.
etc. etc.
