CHAPTER 3
GRAVITY
GRAVITY
The force that molds, holds, and controls the cosmos. It is wispy, sinuous, and beyond comprehension.
Gravity originates in the atom. See the chapter on the Atom.
Science says it is rather weak.., but it is actually mind bogglingly powerful.
We on earth believe that because we can raise our arm against it that it's weaker than we are. But being on the earth, our whole body is part of the earth and our atoms are all moving in tune with it. We are part of earth's inertial frame of gravity strength. The only difference in raising one's arm, or ocean waves forming, or trees growing upwards is the counter balancing gravity of the cosmos 'allowing' it all to happen.., as it pulls outward in all directions from the earth. The cosmos is pulling us from all outwardly directions at once so we do not feel its massive force. But with earth adding its mote like amount we tend to go in that direction.
But if the earth and moon were not present, the cosmic gravity would allow our arm to stay suspended mid-way and our entire body to continue traveling through space, in whatever straight line we were traveling when they disappeared. In reality, with the earth being just a small group of atoms within the overwhelming but unfelt outward pull of the cosmos, the earth is barely strong enough to hold things to itself, and even less to attract objects to it that are in it's near space vicinity.., man-made satellites and the moon in particular. These objects are also pulling the earth to themselves of course. Their distance, size, and speed in space exactly balance their own gravity, the Earth’s, and that of the cosmos.
From our POV, most have negligible effect on the earth in that regard. Although we do see the ocean tides and the earth's wobble being caused by the moon with its gravitational pull. Actually the moon plays a much larger part of the mutual attraction than one would expect. The moon is 1/80th the size of earth but has a full 1/6th the gravity of earth because of its additional velocity. It turns out that the moon's gravity is about 17 times what it should be by volume alone. And the gravity of the cosmos is pulling on the moon too. Just as it did our arm. We know this because the cosmos is actually wining this celestial tug of war, with the moon leaving us at the rate of 1.5 inches a year. And I'm sure that rate is constantly increasing.
Gravity is all around us in the cosmos and pulling us towards it in all directions at once. So the net effect is inertia. It is there. The atoms you are made of know that. One needs to heed... :)
Gravity is the only force in the cosmos to consider. From our earth bound POV we have called it different names depending on how we see it working in relation to us alone. Some of the names are 'mass gravity', 'center seeking', 'inertia', 'centrifugal', and 'centripetal'. The names and differences that gravity appears to have are all the very same GRAVITY. I believe we can show that even Dark Energy is gravity. Again I go on nothing more than basic known facts that you can validate on the Internet.
Here are aspects of gravity and their generally accepted descriptions.
Gravity, 'mass' or 'center seeking', attracts objects toward its center.
Centrifugal Force is seen to attract outward from a center.
Inertia allows an object to travel in a straight line until deflected in various ways.
Dark Energy is an imagined force to explain our belief that the cosmos is expanding.
Dark Matter is gravity in excess of that coming from visible matter.
They are all the same force of gravity. The following are facts and examples to show they are all the same force.
In General...:
Whatever gravity strength a particular atom or group of atoms have at any instant, that force is known to diminish logarithmically with distance from its center. As seen from the surface outward... Therefore, it is safe to say that the gravity strength of a particular atom or group of atoms never reaches zero. It is logical then to believe that every atom in the cosmos affects every other atom in the cosmos.., however vaguely or slight that effect may seem to us earth bound and not totally sentient beings.
Atoms attract each other. In the process they form molecules and compounds. These bits combine to form even more complicated bodies like you and I, the moon, etc. With each of these having it's particular strength of gravity, depending on its velocity in space and relationship to other bodies of gravity. The more atoms that accumulate in a mass the stronger the outward reaching force of gravity becomes for attracting even more atoms to it's total.
Consider earth gravity first.., that which we all know and love. It keeps us nicely attached to the earth and we use it in many ways.
Objects fall to the surface of earth at a speed of 32 ft per second squared. A fellow named Felix jumped from a weather balloon from 24 miles up and he reached a speed of over 800 mph before pulling the rip cord. Because of course the entire earth was pulling him faster and faster to its surface.
From that it is said that objects falling into an imaginary tube through the center of the earth will continue to build speed at that same rate. Until they pass the earth's center. At which point they will begin to slow, more and more, until reaching the other side and climbing out, in China perhaps. The entire trip would take just 42 minutes.
It is also said that this 'center seeking' gravity produces tremendous pressure within the earth. That there is more and more of it the closer to the center you go. Building pressure and compression all the way, enough to compress and heat the center of the earth to the point of melting it.
Scientific fact contradicts both of the above.
Single atoms attract in all directions at once. A group of atoms will attract more strongly but still do so in all directions at once. A group of atoms within a much larger group of atoms will continue to attract from all directions at once with the same strength they would have if not included in the larger group. Therefore when one is considering a large group of atoms such as the earth, and their combined gravity strength, one can only measure it in one direction out from the center of that combination of atoms. But one must also understand that there is an attraction going on in all directions including the totally opposite as well, which keeps things attached on the far side. All the atoms of the earth will be pulling objects in from the far side, whether those atoms are on that side of center, or this side. This is of course how atoms hold themselves together to form larger objects.
But the net effect is that any of the opposing 180 deg out of phase directions of gravity attraction, from any point within the earth, cancel themselves out. This may be from zero near the surface.., to one hundred percent at the center.
One point to be perfectly clear on is that science *does* measure gravity attractions between various objects such as the earth and moon from center to center of each, but it is only to use the average of each. For simplicities sake... Not that gravity is really the strongest at the center and dissipates outward from there.
Therefore, what is commonly called center seeking gravity should be more properly called 'surface seeking' gravity. The entire volume of the earth is pulling objects to its surface. But once an object passes through the crust, down that imaginary tube for instance, the formula breaks down. After a short distance into the earth the gravity producing atoms that are now above or back towards the surface and attracting atoms and objects from the inward direction as well, will eventually have enough strength to begin slowing the object falling through the tube. With four thousand miles to the center, the deeper one goes the more and more gravity from above will be pulling in reverse. Everything at the center of the earth is actually being attracted by four thousand miles of earth's gravity pulling outward in all directions at once. So anything at the center is essentially weightless and in free fall. There being more or less a gravity vacuum. It being equivalent to deep space. Or being at the center of Centrifugal Force...
CENTRIFUGAL FORCE
If the earth had say a one thousand mile diameter hollow center, one would be able to walk around the inside curve of that void, pulled to the outwardly curved surface, by the gravity of the atoms of the earth in that direction. Just as other objects are attracted to the outer surface. On the surface we call gravity pulling outward centrifugal force.
So as we can see, the cosmos produces big time gravity pulling outward.., but it is normally unfelt. As with the outward pull from within the center of the earth, we are effectively in the center of the cosmos too, and it is pulling on everything in all directions at once. One does not feel it as such. But we can make it work for us under certain conditions. We get to that below.
MOLTEN MAGMA
Atoms inside the center of the earth are surrounded by the earth's fairly strong gravitational force pulling outward. They are in a gravity vacuum much the same as deep space. Their electrons buzz around on shorter orbits and so they live their lives out much quicker. And in the process cause a lot of heat. This is the reason the earth's core is molten. There is really nothing at the center of the earth that will pull everything to itself. There is no crushing pressure. The earth is simply a wannabe sun but it's not big enough. It does not have enough outward pull to reach fusion.
The word Tokamak comes to mind here.
HOW ATOMS ATTRACT EACH OTHER.
Because it is known that faster moving atoms have more mass and gravity they can reach out further and pull harder than slower moving atoms. So they attract slower atoms to them more so than the other way around. This is seen in ALL cases of atoms having different velocities.
Elevator raising and descending, frame changing.
As acceleration begins it requires an external force. The 'energizing' force or source is basically just part of a continuous chain of gravity induced reactions, but we have to start somewhere. So what we'll call those *first* moving atoms will be say at the floor of an elevator cage starting to rise. As the first atoms start moving they become more positive. This extra positivity pulls the electrons of the atoms above them downward from the lower part of their fuzz, blur or whatever orbits. And that causes those slower atoms above to develop more gravity or positivity to retain those electrons. That in turn actually pulls the entire nucleus downward to its electron. To match the pull of the atom below. And as it ties into the upward moving group of atoms it maintains its higher positive charge in the upward direction.
So the first level of atoms will attract the atoms at the bottom of the soles of the passenger's shoes, contracting them and bringing them to the speed of the floor's upward moving atoms. This combined motion as the elevator rises continues through to the top of the passenger's head and the top of the elevator cage, atom level by atom level. It is not upward 'push' compression that causes passengers to become contracted to an outside observer, it is the faster moving atom's higher gravity or positivity that 'pull' contracts the slower atoms to them as they travel upward. This will happen in any direction that the faster moving atoms happen to be going.
There is earth's inertial frame when an elevator cage is stopped at either the top of bottom of a building, ignoring the slight difference in altitude of course. The cage has another as it is rising, with all passengers, etc. contracted and living longer, as long as the energy source maintains that extra velocity.
With the cage traveling upward and slowing near the top, you will see a releasing of gravity. With each level of atoms feeling less attraction from the less energized atoms below, they lower their gravity level, to begin aging more quickly, and in turn release their own attraction to the atom level above. This continues level by level to the top of the cage to the point where the rising frame, the cage and its passengers, are back to their original earth frame, and height, and are all aging faster again.
Starting to move downward from the cage's earth frame, those first atoms at the floor accelerate away from the cage's frame and with their stronger inertial gravity, the departing atoms of the floor again pull on the level above. It is the same story as in rising but this time each leve of atoms is pulled downward by the departing faster atom level below. It just takes a bit longer for the slower earth frame atoms to come up to speed as they have to catch up instead of running into those attracting atoms below. This coming to terms continues all the way to the top of the cage again, with it and its passengers again being contracted by the additional inertial or stored gravity. While moving downward, the cage and everyone and everything in is again aging slower..
As the floor slows to a stop near the bottom, as the lower atoms lose their inertial energy source, their additional downward attracting gravity.., and with it their velocity.., which reduces their own gravity production. That in turn releases their hold on the atoms above. This continues again to the top of the cage where it and the passengers will then be at earth’s frame, taller again, with no atom gravity differences, and they will be aging faster again too.
I call it storing and releasing gravity. Science calls it potential and kinetic energy.
In a nutshell, whether the elevator cage and contents are rising or falling, the atoms that cause a transition from one 'at rest' state to another, increasing or decreasing it’s velocity, will be those that are seen as moving faster than the current state. Moving in either direction will pull that state’s atoms into a tighter contraction, producing more gravity strength, and slowing their aging process. In either case, from the POV of the frame the change is being applied to. I hope I'm making myself clear. :)
One last summary: If there were no slowing at either end of the elevator trip, instead of a gradual release of stored gravity it would happen more quickly, in degrees called bump, jolt, or crash. Not even considering total free fall speed and gravity build up, where bump and jolt would be moot. lol
GRAVITY OPERATION WITHIN A SPINNING OBJECT.
A shaft starting to turn at the bottom, causes each higher level of atoms within the shaft to be attracted to those faster moving atoms going in a circular motion below and to come up to their speed. This upward process continues to the top of the shaft. The shaft will then have a slight spiral, and somewhat smaller diameter. The smaller diameter caused by the atoms at each level having different gravity strengths from the center out too, and therefore tightening up horizontally as well. Both the spiral and tightening becoming more so the faster the shaft is rotated. And we must not forget that the shaft gets shorter too, as higher inertial stored gravity pulls on those above too. Once the speed of rotation stops increasing, the spiral and diameter will remain until the energizing force is removed, and the reverse action takes place.
If there is also a disk mounted on the shaft, its inner most concentric circle of atoms will be attracted to the faster moving atoms of the shaft, and therefore come up to the speed of the shaft.
All the atoms in the disk, in each concentric circle outward to the rim will be brought up to speed in succession. If a straight line had been drawn on the disk from the shaft to the rim before starting it will be seen as a slight curve from the shaft in a direction counter to the spin. These curved lines will straighten out again when the energizing force is removed and the reverse unwinding takes place.
One may think that once they are all moving at this faster speed, that slowing down, from our outside POV does not follow the same logic that faster atoms attract slower. But as with the elevator cage, it does.
Everything in the cosmos is relative to any of the many 'at rest' states. Individual masses of atoms moving together, planets, elevator cages, space ships, fast cars, our fingers typing, and so on, all have their own particular relative gravity strength, giving a particular amount of contraction and aging speed. The more contracted running slower and living longer. They all consider themselves to be 'at rest'. Every atom works to keep itself ‘at rest’. As does each concentric circle of atoms in a revolving disk. Each circle will see the next inner circle growing older and next outer circle staying younger.
At this point in a disk, as opposed to an elevator cage, automobile, or other ‘straight line’ velocity, there is another factor. Once each of the concentric circles of atoms is drawn up to the speed of the next inner circle, they reach the point where they are holding each other equally. But then the outward circle atoms find they are traveling further and therefore faster to complete a rotation. So their inertial mass and gravity are increased to be somewhat more than that more inner circle, and so they are now more strongly attracted to it. They are holding on tighter and actually pulling the inner circle outward more than the inner circle is pulling the outer circle inward. And this is true of all circles pulling harder on the next inner circle.., in other words *Centrifugal Force*.
Therefore too, each circle as you move outward to the rim, having greater velocity, ages a bit slower than the circle just inside themselves, and so it goes successively back toward the shaft.
This is where it was once thought 'dishing' of the disk would occur. That the atoms in the outer circle building more inertial gravity would pull themselves together in that circle and make each circumference smaller than it had been. But in fact this cannot happen. Every concentric circle of the disk will have a proportionally shorter circumferences. The process that thinned the shaft would continue outward to the outermost rim of atoms on the disk. The disk will contract in the same proportions it held in earth's frame., but as the outer most circle increases its ‘inertial’ gravity, it begins to be noticed more by the cosmos.
Eventually with enough speed build up enough inertial gravity pulling outward, circles will not be able to hold onto the inner circles, the disk will break up, and the pieces will leave the shaft and try to head off into the cosmos.
In all cases where one level of atoms starts to feel the attraction of the stronger gravity atoms and starts to move faster, they will almost instantly begin to attract those on their far and slower side too. That will continuously increase to the balance point of each as each grows its own gravity. IOW, the transfer of speed and gravity strength does not happen in definite steps atom level by atom level, but as a flow from beginning to end, with contiguous levels of atoms pulling on the next slower level of atoms with whatever tiny fraction of extra gravity that extra speed they have just attained gives them.
Centrifugal Force is often called ‘artificial’ gravity, but it is true gravity, simply coming from all directions at once. Remember that we are in the center of a very powerful cosmos. It is creating the impression of Inertia. And it does cause the disk to keep it’s disk shape and not dish. The effect is most recognized in the use of a centrifuge. As with the spinning disk above, it is a device made specifically for separating different densities of blood and other liquids and in other cases to give a simulated earth's gravity to astronauts in weightless space. It works on the same principal as all other situations we describe involving faster s. slower atoms.
For those that involve humans in space, the centrifuge is being looked to as a means to prevent bone loss, muscle atrophy, and other debilitating effects of weightlessness.
However they are using short diameter centrifuges, where the head of the person is very much at the center where in space no gravity is being produced. It is only at the feet that one will feel and measure earth's gravity. From top to bottom the body is being subjected to a continuous range of gravity levels, the same as what is causing those vials of blood or whatever to separate into their various densities. Albeit a much lower spin rate producing only one G at the feet, is there any thought about what it will do to the circulatory system, digestive system, nervous system, or any other system that needs equal gravity from head to toe?
Is the introduction of gravity needed in the first place? It seems more logical, simpler, and perhaps a lot safer to let that person exercise by securing him in various configurations to a treadmill or other equipment with stretchable straps to provide the one G to push against. Even perhaps to the inside of a drum where more of a single G gravity strength can be applied to the entire body at once.
Further on this… As a discus thrower spins faster and faster with the discus, it and his arm gain enough speed and extra outward pulling gravity to pull the thrower off balance. Anything made to go faster than the 'at rest' earth will disconnect from the gravity of the slower moving atoms, if those atoms cannot come up to speed quickly enough. The faster atoms simply move too quickly and go past any chance of connection before it can happen.
The earth being the tiniest of dust motes in the vast gravitational soup of the cosmos its gravity force is very weak by comparison. Only because we are directly in contact with its surface where its gravity is strongest does it appear to be fairly major to us. But when the discus and the hand and forearm of the thrower pick up enough speed and so much more gravity within their atoms, they combine to eventually pull the thrower off balance. With energy continuously input, and the discus moving faster than the atoms of the earth's surface, with increasing velocity, it eventually disconnects from the underlying gravity and so is pulled up to that of the cosmos.
There is that velocity point where they will entirely disconnect from earth's gravity directly below them and try to go off in a straight line. The discus will be in other words, in orbit horizontal to the earth's surface instead circling the earth, with the arm or string replacing the normal gravity attraction towards the center.
It’s the same with a cannon ball minus the arm or string. The cannon ball is sped up to disconnect from earth's gravity below. The only reason it slows and finally comes back to earth is the air friction and the earth’s weaker but broader based gravity, coming from a much larger area below that the canon ball cannot disconnect from without more energy input. Same with a spinning top, until air and center contact friction, that is also gravity, slow it enough to be attracted back by earth’s closer and now more similar gravity strength beneath it.
WATERFALLS AND SPEEDING TRAINS
Faster moving atoms attracting slower moving atoms are seen throughout nature. The phenomenon of feeling drawn to a large waterfall is not in your mind. You who are not moving are being pulled to that large mass of water rushing past you. It is the water's extra gravity doing that. You will also feel it standing 20 ft from a massive iron freight train that is speeding by you at 80 mph. That isn't suction or draft. It is gravity.
EROSION
Higher velocity atoms produce more gravity than slower moving atoms. This holds true in all cases, even to the extent of water wearing away rock. Water does not cause a sandpaper grinding effect on the rock. The atoms of the water and rock never touch. It is in fact the faster moving stronger gravity atoms of the water pulling atoms from the stationary bedrock, trying to bring that rock 'up to speed'. Slowly of course, but over a million years or so we see a significant lessening of rock.
Since there are only a certain number of moving and/or at rest atoms involved with straight line starting or stopping, of an elevator cage or automobile for instance, they work as a self contained whole. They contract and release each other in turn, in what is called potential and kinetic energy exchanges. Again, I call it storing and releasing gravity. Or, as I believe more correctly now, creating and releasing ‘atomic positivity’. Each atom becoming more or less positive... So with this exchange nothing is lost. But in cases of the top most atoms of a rock undergoing a continuous and never ending attraction by a faster moving and much higher gravity flow of more positively charged atoms, the slower (stationary) atoms of the rock are occasionally overcome and one is carried away.
One way all of this can be proved would be to hang a weight on a string on the outside edge of a centrifuge disk or table... A spinning something with a fair amount of mass... And the pendulum enclosed in glass to prevent drafting or breeze from disturbing it... Take a photo of its position with the centrifuge at rest.., and another with it at full speed... One should see that the pendulum was pulled toward the spinning disk. This would need to be played with as far as the length of string, the size and speed of the centrifuge, the size and density of the suspended weight, and its distance from the rim.., to get an attraction towards the rim that can actually be seen and photographed. I’m sure it can be done. Has it been done already..?
GALAXIES
There are billions of them in the cosmos. Each consisting of billions of stars, planets, moons, etc. circling a center and most if not all of these objects appearing to be spiraling in toward the center of their particular galaxy in a whirlpool type movement. It is believed that at the center of galaxies there are super strong gravity objects called black holes that suck in all the surrounding stars and such into itself. That the suns and such on the outside edge would be slowly drawn closer and closer, moving faster and faster into that 'black hole' center. But what is known to have that much gravity..? And isn't it said that black holes tear atoms apart? Since atoms produce gravity, where would the black hole's gravity then come from? So even with some massive sun's compression to the size of a golf ball, and if the atoms were still somehow working, how is it possible for that golf ball to have any more gravity than it did when it was still the original giant star or whatever to begin with.
The bigger problem with the whirlpool idea is that recently the furthest out spiral arms of galaxies were found to be rotating at the same speed as those closer to the center. In other words there was no indication the outer suns etc. were being drawn into the center. In facts show quite the reverse. More like the galaxies are moving as a whole and similar to a solid disk.
Or even more like the lawn sprinkler on your front lawn. With a center nozzle spewing water out as it spins around. All the droplets of water being thrown straight out from the center and in the process forming the appearance of spiral arms... With every circular rotation forming another spiral that joins those already moving outward.
This is supported by our own sun. It emits 'solar wind'. Solar wind consists of electrons, protons and other parts and particles that atoms are built from. So it is not a big jump to believe that massive sources of solar winds have been spreading the building blocks of atoms in much the same way as your lawn sprinkler spreads the water. These components then come together in ways to make atoms. Then proceeding to build suns, planets, and in general a galaxy around the source.
It seems that most galaxies do have spinning centers to create the flat spiral form most galaxies take. Spinning things seem to be the norm out there.
So are there really any black holes..? Might they be better called white holes? Creating galaxies that are expanding..?
THE MOON
It is circling the earth and traveling so much faster than the earth. Its size is 1/80th that of earth, yet because of its speed it has a, full, 1/6th earth gravity. This velocity induced stronger gravity pulling on the earth to come after it. It producing tides and causing the earth to wobble in its attempt to bring it up to speed. While at the same time the much stronger gravity of the cosmos is attempting to pull the moon into a straight line path, and is in fact pulling it away from the earth at the rate of an inch and a half a year, which surely is ever increasing. Eventually the moon will fly off in a straight line. Or perhaps it will go directly into the sun.
With the cosmos pulling on everything outward from every point in the cosmos at once, as earth does from its own centre and the moon does to earth, the cosmos is the outermost and strongest attraction. It is outward gravity from our POV, or any other in the cosmos. That which keeps things moving in a straight line in whatever direction they were first propelled. Straight until more local objects give more pull in their direction to cause a deflection. Inertia is gravity.
One major effect the earth has had on the moon is to create the large mares or seas on this side of the moon, but not on the other. The moon has cooled now but at one time its core was molten. Those mares or seas are very large areas of lava flow. Lava obviously pulled to the moon’s surface from the earth on this side, as opposed to the other, over the millennium by Earth's gravity.
CLOCKS FASTER ON MOUNTAINS
It has been found that when sitting in a valley a clock runs slower than if it were at the top of a mountain where it is under less of earth's gravitational pull. The cesium atom vibrations said to be the most precise clock possible shows a difference between these two heights. But as the distance above the earth increases, the faster clock will begin to slow again.
In other words being close to the earth the clocks are affected mostly by earth's gravity and not the cosmos. The clock on the mountain is further away from earth's gravity but still traveling at pretty much the same velocity as the clock in the valley, so it simply runs faster.
But as the clock on the mountain is raised higher, it begins to slow again. Its atoms more and more affected by the cosmos as well as its own. At a distance above the earth equal to 1/4 the radius of the earth and traveling at an increased speed to keep it geostationary, the two clocks will be running at the same rate. The effects of the cosmos and of the earth on their respective clocks will be equal. Going still higher with the mountain clock will create still more gravity and continued slowing because of its velocity increase.
To sum it all up, it is well accepted that gravity originates in the atom and that its strength increases as its velocity increases. And also that an atom's electrons take on longer orbital paths as velocity increases. That in turn slows its internal operation accordingly. These observations are seen but understood to be caused by time slowing or stretching. But there is no time. It is obviously a physical slowing of the atom's operation inversely proportional to its velocity and other gravity fields it encounters.
Such groups of atoms moving together are deemed to be 'at rest' with each other. It matters not the number of atoms nor their arrangement. Look back to those circular strings of atoms spinning on a disk. Each circle considers itself at rest, with all other circles inside or out aging faster or slower.
Time does not stretch, but atoms can run and age slower. In case I haven’t mentioned it elsewhere, all atoms moving together at any particular velocity through the cosmos will all run at the same internal speed, and so anything they comprise will also operate and run at that particular speed. Clocks.., rust.., mentalities. Everything will be equal within any particular inertial frame of reference. All mass and gravity will increase or decrease, producing physical relativity, compared to other frames... But no difference will be felt or seen within any such frame.
But we do notice something going on when we’re *changing* frames. When we store or release gravity. When we’re accelerating or decelerating.
Keep in mind that even within a particular inertial frame such as earth, there are other movements. Each of those movements has its own frame or 'ageing' difference compared to the whole. Everything that moves faster in relation to something else, or has more external gravity applied to it, will be ageing slower than that something else. Yes, I know some points are often repeated, but it's to bring home real facts that prove time is not real. As opposed to circumstantial facts that lead us to believe, or hope, it is real. :/
An example I’ve heard of someone standing next to a pyramid, and it causing time to slow for that person as he watches his friend down the hill moving around quickly, does not relate to time stretching as was held. There is no time difference going on. The person down on the road may see the person at the pyramid moving slower, but when that person comes back down the hill to his friend on the road, neither one will be answering questions before they were asked, or any other display of time delay taking place. What happened to the time gap? Nothing happened at all. There is no time to gap. The two people were always in sync. The person who stood by the pyramid will just live longer now. His bodily functions and perception were slowed for awhile. That's all. Time, in whatever form one wants to imagine it, played no part at all.
But I think I've already said that. :)
TECTONIC PLATES
With the Earth's crust floating on magma and that crust and the cosmos's gravity pulling outward, it is the continuous outward attraction that causes the movement of the tectonic plates on the surface. The earth swells towards the greater attraction, as is being done at our equator too. So, the crust is rising, floating, and rolling over. One obvious result of this is that one of early earth's major land masses concentrated a major upward pull under itself and distorted the earth enough for it to swell up and separate, north to sound, probably starting at the equator. It separated what is now called the Americas, from Europe and Africa. As the Americas were pushed away and the large mass of gravity divided, causing much less gravity in the original center, the concentrated upward pull subsided. What was left of the crust sunk and the Atlantic Ocean was formed.
What is left of that original split is still seen at the bottom of the Atlantic.., probably in its last throws of rising. With much less gravity pull from the ocean above, it may eventually heal over and stop, if it hasn’t already done do. Not to mention the sub-ducting going on at the west coast. California may not fall in to the Pacific after all. The earthquakes going on out there now may just be the immense gravity of the Rocky Mountains causing a similar attraction from below. There is a lot of hot spring activity around their edges. Or, it may just be that the mountains themselves are still trying to ease their own internal pressure, caused by the original separation pushing them against the wall, until they broke it down and went under.
DYNAMO EFFECT
A characteristic of atoms is that they become more and more positive the faster they move. So with the earth turning on its axis the atoms at the equator are traveling about a thousand miles an hour. This velocity gives the atoms at the equator a higher positive charge than those poking around the center axis.
It results in a difference of potential from the center to the outside. So we can see how an electromagnetic field might be developed. And of course we know the earth does have one. So we find, as all good electromagnets do, that the earth is attracting iron. There being a very large quantity of solid iron at the very core of the earth. It is apparently being taken from the magma by electromagnetic attraction. There are in fact relatively minimal amounts in the magma, lava, etc. now. So it seems with the tectonic plates continuously feeding more iron to the magma from the crust, and it being quickly transferred to the center, it's likely there will be a time when there is no more iron left on the surface. It will all be at the core.
But I don't think that will be the real problem. There are already predictions that at the current rate of consumption, which is increasing by 2% a year, that there are only about 64 years of usable iron left.
But of course by then we will have figure out how to draw iron from the center of the earth. Are we not smart viruses like malaria that have devised many ingenious ways and means to stay away from that which would mean our destruction..?
GRAVITY WAVES
More to be said here, but it does not seem they can exist. Perhaps what are thought to be gravity waves will be recorded. Slight increases in gravity may occur and be measurable when binary stars line up with LIGO's here on earth. But gravity itself is instantaneous. If it was not, and there were waves running back and forth around the cosmos, they would surely develop a resonance that would cause out destruction. Talk about rock concerts.
LIGO's will not detect gravity waves. Even if they were there, the LIGO’s are pointed to compare just two directions out of up to 360 cubed that are available.
Ok, so they’ll sweep around as the earth turns, etc.., but doesn’t that give another problem..? They will be sweeping different strengths of gravity that are occurring naturally.
The results of 3 years spent at the Antarctic looking outward and finding a glow is thought to be the remnants of the big bang. But since there was no big bang, it has another explanation. In that the cosmos is being found to go beyond our visible portion, and in fact being virtually endless, what is seen is more likely just some of the rest of it.
DARK MATTER
Dark matter is the name given to the extensive but invisible mass and gravity that science seems to think is out there in our cosmos. They base this partly or mostly on the fact that galaxies rotate as a flat disk..., instead of the outside edges being slower and speeding up toward the center.
But this has been explained in the section on Galaxies above. That Galaxies are actually acting as lawn sprinklers and throwing the makings of atoms outward in spiral arms as the center rotates... And as such, it would not be a reason for suspecting the presence of invisible matter. Iow the idea that it is out there does make some sense to me.
This is hopefully an ‘educated guess’ now, because science doesn't seem to know much either. It’s still in the dark.., matter.
If there IS extreme mass and gravity being detected but not known from whence it comes. I certainly expect it is from the extreme size of the cosmos that cannot be seen. I and others now expect the unseen universe to be a size that exceeds comprehension. And if so we certainly should be including that gravity in our calculations. Gravity never drops to zero. And it will grow in strength by combining all the minimal strengths from all the very distant individual sources. As I’ve said elsewhere.., the entire cosmos is attracting everything outward with its extremely powerful total gravity.., and many of those other frames out there will have masses that go beyond our earth bound thinking...
There is this snip from Wikipedia…
“Dark matter is invisible. But based on the effects of gravitational lensing, a ring of dark matter has been detected in an image of a galaxy cluster ‘CL0024+17’ and has been represented in blue.”
Here’s the link to that photo. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:CL0024%2B17.jpg
While I wonder how they can color something they cannot see, I’ll accept the claim at face value. The lensing seems to be focusing stuff from a super extreme distance, compared to a point light source within our visible universe. This blue looks more like a vague circular cloud encircling the galaxy cluster at an extreme distance out from it. As if there is no actual point source.
With the understanding that there is much more universe out there than we can see, and that photons may continue to travel after they have stopped working, it seems possible that what is being measured is the mass and gravity from this unbelievably large passage of photons through our visible universe.
The gravitational lens effect seen in the photo seems to indicate that the incoming is from a very large original area and that the lens is focusing a small part of it to the circular cloud that we see in the photo.
And I’m going to stop there.., before I get myself in trouble. lol
ANTI MATTER
They claim there is a small amount of anti-matter coming out of the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. They've also claimed that the center of the Milky Way Galaxy is a dead black hole. Hawkins and I both seem to wonder if black holes even exist. Especially with the idea that galaxies are more likely to be formed by white holes… To top it off the idea for anti-matter comes tied into the big bang theory which surely didn't happen.
They theorize that in the early universe each particle had an anti-particle but that they all quickly destroyed each other. Except for a small number of excess matter particles that were left over to form the estimated 10 billion trillion times larger universe than we can see. That non-provable time based idea goes on to say that there were atoms with negative protons and positive electrons. Even if such were possible, and these particles were around long enough to form atoms, they go on to say that opposites attract, so they annihilate each other. ?? Opposites..? Anti-matter atoms and matter atoms would each be electrically neutral. Why would they attract each other?
It is even possible that as matter atoms attract themselves to each other by gravity, that antimatter atoms would repel from each other by anti-gravity. That may be why there is none around today… ?? Spacing themselves out further and further from each other until there are no more in our portion of the universe. A reverse condition from the one we’re a part of.
So it makes no sense, at least to me. But it does seem our natural world is capable of producing a positive electron called a positron and I believe a negative proton too. So I'm going to leave it at that for now. That nature can be modified on a small scale. It's been done before.
THE BIG BANG
One of the latest scientific estimate that has been made is that the universe is 10 billion trillion times the size of our visible portion of that universe. Did you think it was big before..?
I'm not going to say any more. The big bang just didn't happen.
The universe is steady-state and so we best get back to reality.
