Below is a simple illustration of a three-dimensional plasma discharge form appearing above ancient sky worshippers, inspiring a vast array of mythical interpretations. The laboratory verified configuration includes a transparent “champagne glass” form above, a transparent “hollow donut” (when seen edge-on), and the “squashed bell” form below, all joined by an axial spine running down from the “head” of the figure.
Anthony L. Peratt is a world leading research scientist on high energy Plasma Discharges. Perhaps the leading authority and some Plasma characteristics have been named as Peratt Instabilities. He has carried out field research on Petroglyphs (rock art carved into rocks) after noticing the similarity between high energy plasma discharges and the images recorded in rock art and cave drawings by nations all over the world. His conclusion is that the Squatter Man (Squatting Man) was the event that inspired all the images and it was a Plamsa Discharge witnessed by humans on earth.
Peratt surmised that a surge of power in the currents driving the auroras had set off the sequence of instabilities. The entire pre-historical sky around the globe would have appeared to come alive with a shimmering, shining “enhanced aurora” that stretched from pole to pole. It would have featured exactly those abstract figures and stick men and strange animal-like shapes that appear only in rock art and in high-energy plasma discharges. He contends that the ancient artists were witnesses to this “enhanced aurora

Maybe sometime in the past an event took place that lit the skies up.

If this event took place I wonder what the effect would have been on mankind.. The event is believed to have taken place between 4000-12000 years ago.
This was done using plasma energy. Plasma is a scalable energy.
It would have featured exactly those abstract figures
but his idea that he can sort of intuit cultural anthropology by simply looking at rock art images is...
Depiction of an intense auroral funnel. The figures show both downflowing and up-flowing Birkeland currents contained with two Concentric sheets. (Left) Oblique upward view. (Right) Side view. Barely discernible at the lower center are the Z-pinch instabilities.
In fusion power research, the Z-pinch, also known as zeta pinch, is a type of plasma confinement system that uses an electrical current in the plasma to generate a magnetic field that compresses it
Plasma Galaxies
Laboratory experiments, together with advanced simulation capabilities, have shown that electric forces can efficiently organize spiral galaxies, without resorting to the wild card of gravity-only cosmology--the Black Hole.
The photograph of spiral galaxy M81 above is one of the first images returned by NASA's new Spitzer space telescope, an instrument that can detect extremely faint waves of infrared radiation, or heat, through clouds of dust and plasma that have blocked the view of conventional telescopes. The result is the picture of striking clarity.

Plasma is not energy.

Why would it do so? Is the shape of Earth's magnetic field anything like the shape of the field which guides that plasma discharge?

Let's not forget about all the Spirals you find carved in the rock too.

Hello Phage...
Thanks for your input. I know that plasma is a state of matter, but it is an energy too. It is charge ions..Would the plasma exist without these charged ions..
It would have featured exactly those abstract figures
I don't know why it would do so. I am not a plasma scientist. Do the plasma discharges attracted to polar regions shap like the earths magnetic field.. I am not getting your point.. I can create plasma in my microwave I do not see it follow the shape of the earths magnetic force..

Only way I could rationalize that (predicated on it being about plasma) is that the cave art people were replicating something they witnessed but didn't understand what they saw.
