Nobel prize winning astrophysicist, Hannes Alfvén, was a founder of modern plasma physics, contributing essential advancements in atmospheric magnetic phenomena and many other fields. His work is the foundation of many advanced science applications today, such as work at Los Alamos National Laboratory and NASA.
Hannes Alfvén, by Hans Bethe. Wikipedia
Alfvén was an early supporter of "plasma cosmology," a concept that challenges the big-bang model of the origin of the universe. Those who support the theories of plasma cosmology hold that the universe had no beginning and has no foreseeable end. They argue that plasma - with its electric and magnetic forces - has done more to organize matter in the universe into star systems and other observed structures than has the force of gravity. Alfvén emphasized the importance of working backwards in time from observations rather than forward from an idealized theoretical beginning. He writes, " we have to learn again that science without contact with experiments is an enterprise which is likely to go completely astray into imaginary conjecture" (Alfvén 188).
Alfvén won the Nobel Prize for his work in magnetohydrodynamics, Nasa/SDO. Wikipedia.
A second major impetus in this research came from the controversial astronomer Emmanuel Velikovsky and his quest to understand the observed stability of the solar system, or why the planets don't fly off their orbits. Velikovsky was inspired by the discovery that electrical forces dominate the comparatively weak force of gravity (gravity is actually one of the weaker physical forces, and requires huge amounts of interacting matter to exert an attractive or repulsive force when compared to electromagnetism). Though he was unable to fully answer his questions, Velikovsky's pioneering work, like that of Hannes Alfvén, has pointed the way for modern experimentation, and forgedan electromeagnetic model of the cosmos.

Wow a great article and i think the theory of Bing Bang is seemed to appropriate over the theory of plasma cosmolagy
It's okay to be controversial sometimes, provided the result is good.
