Many recent creationists are attracted to plasma astronomy, the idea that electromagnetic effects rather than gravity are responsible for much of the structure of the universe. I examine the claims of at least one proponent of plasma astronomy, Donald E. Scott. Scott has written a book that discusses many aspects of plasma astronomy. This book appears to be the most concise treatment of plasma astronomy in print, so it ought to be a good source. However, his case is very weak, for he relies upon many misunderstandings of astronomy, and he presented much incorrect and misleading information. He also rejects general relativity, a well-tested physics theory. I urge extreme caution of these ideas in the creation community, and I encourage fair consideration of the operational science aspects of astronomy.
