<em>Electric Geology </em>is considered the study of rocks generated or altered by past or ongoing electrical processes resulting in present day rock formations with telltale signs of very strong electrical processes at work. Since 1950 with the publishing of the controversial book, <em>Worlds in Collision </em>by Immanuel Velikovsky, proponents of his theories have conducted field investigations for evidence in opposition to what is considered the more standard or conventional geophysical processes with a slower electrical valence transfer of charge considered in normal crystallization and weathering processes. Michael Steinbacher, a most excellent photographer, was an electric universe devotee during the early formation of the Thunderbolts team. He is credited as an original investigator of the <em>Arc Blast </em>phenomena, who first began a series of extensive field investigations first posting to the Thunderbolts forum in 2008. <em>Arc Blast </em>is generally considered an extreme event of the <em>Electric Geological </em>process whereby <em>Interplanetary Lightning </em>or <em>Static Electricity </em>is considered the causal agent of large i.e. planetary-scale <em>Electric Geological </em>processes. Hypotheses on what triggers an <em>Arc Blast </em>vary, but may include wandering interstellar objects that transfer charge directly in passing, a plasma event triggered from the Sun, shifting orbits changing electro-magnetic potentials, discharge during impacts or collisions, increase charge density of surrounding interstellar space etc. The end result is a planet scarred by electric carve-outs during extreme <em>Plasma Tectonic </em>events.
