But there is no guarantee that I *PERSONALLY* would ever be able to single handedly answer every one of those questions, particularly *WITHOUT* the help of Lockheed Martin even after repeated requests for information. Since I did not personally create that movie, I cannot personally answer some of the aspects of how it was created as much as I might like to have that information. I do not however understand your reluctance to discuss them only because I do not know every detail.
I totally understand and respect the REASONS you wish to know all this information. That does not have to prevent us from discussing these images. In fact if you are truely interested in discussing them you could email Lockheed yourself and see if you have better luck. Perhaps they are simply reluctant to discuss the issue with me personally.

Wait a minute. I did explain the size in pixels and arcs and the exact things you asked for.
I'm not sure why you expect me to know this exactly, but can't we discuss it without knowing that? Assuming that the light is coming from the arcs, the surface itself could be almost any temperature, from about 4000K down to ????. The only requirement is that it be cool enough to allow solids to form.
I did answer that question. The source of the illumination is the photon emissions from the electrical arcs themselves.

I'm not sure what you mean by that statement Nereid. I even tried to use Birkelands early models into our discussion so everyone could readily understand the model. I've spent months developing a full "model" of how it all comes together, or I would not even be here trying to discuss it with you. I know your standard are high (In this case too high IMO). I would not try to explain this on this kind of website with this kind of scrutiny if I did not have a model I could explain.

What should that tell me about Michael's model as it relates to these key observations? Can you explain the location and source of the 'illumination'?

Yes. The photons are emitted from the electrical arc.

If not, then how do you know that it's not just a torch, running on AA batteries, inside TRACE?"

Perhaps you would like to try explaining the source of the illumination from a gas model perspective? I have at least done that much. Perhaps if you emailed Lockheed Martin, they could shed some light on it for you.
