These evidences have been specially handpicked from mainstream sources itself, for deniers, since they refuse to look at any evidence from EU sources. EU sources have far more info & explanations.
1) Measurement of the Electric Current in a Kpc-Scale Jet
- published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters (ApJL)

2) Universe’s highest electric current found
https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21028174.900-universes-highest-electric-current-found/
A cosmic jet 2 billion light years away is carrying the highest electric current ever seen : 10 to the power of 18 amps, equivalent to a trillion bolts of lightning.
3) Electric currents along astrophysical jets

4) Cosmic Electric Currents Becoming Accepted Science
5) Big electric fields discovered at Jupiter's poles

6) Can Large Electric Fields Power Jupiter’s X-ray Auroras ?
https://eos.org/research-spotlights/can-large-electric-fields-power-jupiters-x-ray-auroras
Electric fields with megavolt potentials in Jupiter’s polar region accelerate particles to 100 times more energy than Earth’s typical auroral particles, a new study finds.
7) Astronomers Discover Magnetic Bridge Between Magellanic Clouds
https://www.skyandtelescope.com/astronomy-news/astronomers-discover-magnetic-bridge-magellanic-clouds/
The gravitational effects evident from these interactions can tell us a lot about the history and evolution of these galaxies as well as the environments surrounding them, but gravity isn’t the only force at work here. Magnetic fields play a role as well, one astronomers are still trying to puzzle out.
(magnetism and electricity go hand in hand, hence the term electromagnetism. unless you have been taught differently)
8) Cosmic Magnetic Fields
https://www.universetoday.com/85087/astronomy-without-a-telescope-cosmic-magnetic-fields/
https://arxiv.org/pdf/1104.3749v1.pdf
The mention of cosmic-scale magnetic fields is still likely to met with an uncomfortable silence in some astronomical circles – and after a bit of foot-shuffling and throat-clearing, the discussion will be moved on to safer topics. But look, they’re out there. They probably do play a role in galaxy evolution, if not galaxy formation – and are certainly a feature of the interstellar medium and the intergalactic medium.
9) Saturn and Enceladus Electrical Link - NASA video
This animated graphic shows how Saturn and its moon Enceladus are electrically linked. Magnetic field lines, invisible to the human eye but detectable by the fields and particles instruments on NASA's Cassini spacecraft, arc from Saturn's north polar region to south polar region. Enceladus resides in the arc of a set of the field lines and feeds charged particles into the Saturn atmosphere.

11) The Moon Is Electric - Especially When It's Full
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/2018/09/news-full-moon-electric-ionosphere-nasa-artemis-space/
Crucially, this means that the lunar plasma can measurably perturb the plasma coming from Earth and the sun, leading to observable changes in electrical currents and the distribution of electrons around the region. It’s possible that there’s even a plasma-based connection between Earth and the moon, and previous research offers some tentative evidence that such a particle exchange exists.
Asteroids and other moons in our solar system tend to be smaller than “our magnificent moon,” ... This means they would retain even thinner exospheres.
12) New Insights on Comet Tails Are Blowing in the Solar Wind
https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2018/new-insights-on-comet-tails-are-blowing-in-the-solar-wind
For us, this is strong evidence that the dust is electrically charged, and that the solar wind is affecting the motion of that dust.
13) Static Electricity May Transport Dust Across Airless Planetary Bodies
https://www.nasa.gov/ames/feature/static-electricity-may-transport-dust-across-airless-planetary-bodies
A NASA-funded research team ... has conducted laboratory experiments ... explaining a variety of unusual phenomena on the surfaces of airless planetary bodies, including observations from the Apollo era to the recent Rosetta comet mission.
In addition to single particles, clusters of dust were lofted, which showed that electrostatic processes may be responsible for the Rosetta detection of fluffy dust particles released from the surface of Comet 67P.
14) Electric Currents in Geospace and Beyond - is a book published by the American Geophysical Union (AGU) & explores our most up-to-date understanding of electric currents in the solar system.
The book covers a broad range of topics from the pioneers of electric currents in outer space, to measurement and analysis techniques, and the many types of electric currents and serves as an excellent reference volume for a broad community of space scientists, astronomers, and astrophysicists who are studying space plasmas in the solar system.
"... solar wind draping around the nucleus results in current sheets. Possible re-connection in the tail or in the nested draped field regions also generates currents. After the historic view, the focus moves to the Rosetta mission around comet 67P and the latest results on the observations of electric currents in the coma."

15) Negatively charged nano-grains at Comet 67P
https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/pdf/2015/11/aa26316-15.pdf
"Near the nucleus, the photo-ionized neutral gas can sufficiently increase the electron density to generate negatively charged dust particles ... electric fields also emerge on the surface of the nucleus and could contribute to the acceleration of nano-dust particles ...The nightside of the nucleus could charge to surface potentials that are several hundreds of volts negative ... electric fields are also generated near the boundaries of lit-dark regions where differential charging can result in surprisingly intense, but very small-scale surface electric fields pointing from the lit towards the unlit regions"
16) On the electrostatic charging of the cometary nucleus
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1981ApJ...249..787M
Conclusion - "... the cometary surface is consequently electrically charged, the potential being positive around the subsolar point and negative near the terminators ... we have shown that submicron dust particles can be electrostatically levitated and also be totally blown off the cometary surface."
17) Dust Levitation on Asteroids
http://www.academia.edu/25281725/Dust_Levitation_on_Asteroids
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/248577022_Dust_Levitation_on_Asteroids
"There are reasons to regard electrophysical processes on planetary surfaces with more skepticism than usual ... the landforms that might result from electrophysical processes on asteroids may in some cases resemble those produced by more conventional ‘‘geological’’ processes ... there is little doubt that electrically resistive planetary surfaces exposed to the solar wind and / or to energetic solar radiation must evolve charge differentials and electric fields. The question lies perhaps more in the exact nature and intensity of the effects than in whether or not they occur."
