So why does Mars have no magnetic field to speak of??? If its simply a matter of being a planet spinning in space, its electromagnetic field should have collapsed in the pockets that it has today.
I’m not saying the theory is wrong, just asking, how it handles this counter example.

Did a quick read, as I understand it he's claiming that captured charged particle's from the Sun creates the magnetic fields of all spinning planets. Did I get that right? So Mars is a real problem with is very weak magnetic field. Also I thought it was, (I hate saying this) "settled science" that spinning liquid metal generates a magnetic field. I like people that think out side the box, but ......

I looked into that a little, using googly on the internet. Mars is stated as having a magnetic field, but weaker than Earth. But it is a smaller planet, in a different orbit, etc. Also, this isn’t my theory, it has to stand on its own two feet, I’m totally cool with that :)
