Dr. Lyttleton backs the theory that we live in an electric universe and this theory starts with the behavior of protons and electrons.
Protons and electrons bear opposite electrical charges which make them attract each other, and when they are joined they make up an atom of hydrogen -- the basic building block of matter.
The charges of the electron and proton are believed to be exactly equal and opposite, but Dr. Lyttleton is not so sure.
Suppose, says Dr. Lyttleton, the proton has a slightly greater charge than the electron ( so slight it is presently immeasurable ).
This would give the hydrogen atom a slight charge-excess.
