Water pressure vs aether pressure

 PSI Blog 20210830 Water pressure vs aether pressure

 

Abhi asks:

 

It has always been observed that objects with densities greater than that of water sink in water and objects with densities less than that of water float on water. This means that water has a tendency to push objects with densities greater than itself towards the baryonic matter on which the water is placed and also a tendency to push objects with densities less than itself away from the baryonic matter on which the water is placed. Can you explain why water has such tendencies?”

 

[GB: Thanks, Abhi for an easy one. Remember that the direction a microcosm (i.e., “object”) moves is determined by the univironment. In this case, we can be concerned mostly with the macrocosm, that is, the supermicrocosms that tend to collide with a particular microcosm. The heavy object is pushed toward the center of Earth by highly active water molecules and aether particles. The light object is pushed toward the surface of the water by highly active, massive water molecules that produce collisions whose F=ma is greater than the F=ma of the countervailing collisions produced by tiny aether particles.

 

Another way of looking at this phenomenon is with Newton’s First Law of Motion. A microcosm is accelerated when a supermicrocosm collides with it; and decelerated when that microcosm collides with another supermicrocosm. This may appear a bit complicated because the pressure in water (baryonic matter) increases toward Earth because it is pushed toward Earth by highly active aether particles during gravitation. The pressure in the aether medium increases away from Earth as we surmised in our explanation of the Pound-Rebka experiment.[1] EM waves moving away from Earth traveled faster than those traveling toward Earth. Because of the slightly increased velocity, the waves were redshifted (further apart).[2] This implies short-range aether particle motion was greater as well. Having higher velocities means the force (F=ma) engendered by each particle was greater also, revealing that aetherial pressure increased with distance from Earth (collisions per cm2). Once those aether particles collide with baryonic matter, they decelerate, producing a low-pressure halo containing “dark matter” around baryonic matter.[3] This is both a result of gravitation and a cause for further gravitation since all microcosms tend to move from high to low pressure areas.

 

Baryonic matter, which is simply complexed aether particles, moves similarly, but with the more massive microcosms crowding out the less massive ones. Many types of wood and other “lighter” microcosms are no match for heavy water molecules. These provide more force to their Earthward sides, causing them to float despite the relatively meagre impacts of the nitrogen, oxygen, and aether particles above them.

 

I like this explanation because it removes the contradiction posed by Newton’s gravitational attraction hypothesis. One could naively ask: If everything is “pulled” toward Earth, how come the wooden object floating on the water is not pulled likewise. You also could ask Einstein why his perfectly empty space-time doesn’t do a better job on the wooden object.]

Reading List for Neomechanics

PSI Blog 20210823 Reading List for Neomechanics

 

[GB: Thanks so much to Joe Lennon, one of our most avid readers, for compiling this list. Joe recognizes ideas don’t just pop out of nowhere. As the old cliché goes: “We all stand on the shoulders of giants.” Joe awaits comments leading to additional references and removal of others.]

 

by Joe Lennon

 

Why did I create this list?

 

When I’m interested in something, I want to obtain as much of a view of the world related to, and surrounding that topic, as I can find.  I do this in order to learn the truth about it.  This brings it out of isolation for me, and provides me with a larger perspective.  I didn’t include information about opposing theories in this list, as Dr. Borchardt has given practical, logical, and scientific, non-fantastical reasons for astronomical phenomena and the origins of the universe; that is all that I’m interested in.  If I want the opposing information, I can tune in to syndicated episodes of any science fiction program, go read a novel, or listen to, read or watch the lies that are passed off as the truth about these topics.  

 

I have listed past researchers that Dr. Borchardt has mentioned in his interviews. I think that ties to the past are important as they have never failed to provide me with additional information about what I’m interested in, and in many occasions have shown me new horizons that I would not have found any other way.  Original source material is essential to learning the truth about anything.

 

Logic and the Scientific Method are the cornerstones of Physics and all other sciences.  Unfortunately, these disciplines are not commonly taught in schools today.  I was fortunate to have to study them as an undergraduate.  I don’t believe that it is possible to discern the truth of a matter without formal Logic and the Scientific Method.

 

I don’t believe that discoveries in Physics can be made without Math.  Unfortunately, Math has certainly been used to contaminate Physics, replacing what is probable and improbable, with what is theoretically possible and impossible.  Most people have been taught to love the latter, however, I do not.  So, in my search for a Math that would be helpful with Physics, I found some older texts, and some new ones that contained what seemed to me to be the basic information needed if I wanted to do research of my own in Physics.  However, at my age, this is mostly for passing information on to others who will be doing their own research someday.

 

I put all of this under the rubric of Dr. Borchardt’s Neomechanics, as for my purpose, this gives me a world view of a consistent, honest, hard-nosed, unrelenting search for the truth concerning the origin and Physics of the Universe.

Motion of electrons and magnetism

PSI Blog 20210816 Motion of electrons and magnetism


According to Jean de Climont, the motion of electrons is not the cause of the magnetic field:

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Khl4F6cr36A&feature=youtu.be

 




The Climont video on the lack of electron particle motion is quite convincing. He correctly implies that the manifestations of electricity and magnetism require the presence of the aether. He gives the correct interpretation of Sagnac and eschews the regressive belief in perfectly empty space and that light is a massless particle instead of a wave in the aether (“Infinite Universe Theory”). His view is in tune with our philosophy of univironmental determinism (what happens to a portion of the universe depends on the infinite matter within and without) (“The Scientific Worldview”). The regressive belief that electron motion is all that is required for magnetism involves an obvious microcosmic mistake. An electron without a macrocosm (i.e., perfectly empty space) could not produce magnetism by itself.

 

Note also that Climont uses the correct spelling of aether and recognizes Descartes’ claim that aether is the medium for both light and gravitation (“Aether Deceleration Theory”).

 

Debates among reformists generally become bogged down when the arguments are based on opposing fundamental assumptions (“The Ten Assumptions of Science”). There is little point in arguing with someone who is an aether denier or believes in the other popular superstitions used to defend relativity (“Religious Roots of Relativity”). The aether concept solves many problems in physics, from dark matter to the reason relativity (requiring perfectly empty space) and quantum mechanics (not necessarily requiring perfectly empty space) can never be compatible.

Vera Rubin, Dark Matter and Nobels lost

 

PSI Blog 20210809 Vera Rubin, Dark Matter and Nobels lost

 


Vera Rubin (1928-2016)

 

“Glenn,

 

A few days ago, I went through your Quora page with great interest. Great job dealing with the good as well as the bad questions. Thanks for that.

 

In one answer about dark matter, you recommended a paper by Vera Rubin. I just now found time to read that short “Millennium Essay" paper, “One Hundred Years of Rotating Galaxies”.

 

What a great lady. I had to do some further research on her career. Married for 60 years! …That type of dedication and devotion is rare.

 

10-year-old Vera developed an interest in astronomy while watching the stars from her window. "Even then I was more interested in the question than in the answer,”

 

It’s so sad that scientists like Vera were (and remain) hamstrung by the BBT and all of its related Ad Hocs (or as Vera says, “adjectives"). She could have done so much more with a better understanding of the infinite universe. I love her humility. She even says, “I like a very old universe”. How much more would she have enjoyed applying her expertise and open-mindedness to an infinite universe!

 

I especially love this quote from her Millennium Essay.

"Models of enormous complexity exist, which assume that luminous disks form embedded in cold dark matter structures originating early in the universe. In order to make the models fit, adjectives modify cold dark matter models: open, mixed, tilted, ... I hope that new observations and new insights will soon impose tighter constraints upon these models, as well as tighter constraints upon the dark matter/bright matter components which produce the observed rotation curves. Some of the current complexity must arise from our ignorance.” [Emphasis mine.]

 

Wow! It would be nice to live long enough to see some minds like Vera’s joining “our” fight. I know we have a few coming our way, but it’s so dang slow happening. I guess we have to take a Zen approach and accept what the universe gives us in return for our work.

 

Best regards,

Nice little video about Vera Rubin. Ten minutes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ub37odWiufI

 

[GB: Thanks so much Rick. Dark matter has been suspected for centuries before its discovery by Fritz Zwicky in 1933, who found the masses of the galaxies in the Coma Cluster were over 100 times greater than those calculated from their luminosities.

 

In the 1970’s Vera Rubin and colleagues began studying the rotation rates of galaxies known to be rotating. Conventional wisdom promulgated by followers of both Newton and Einstein predicted rotation rates of stars within spiral galaxies would diminish with distance (A), but Rubin found no such thing (B):


 Rotation curve of a typical spiral galaxy: predicted (A) and observed (B). Dark matter can explain the 'flat' appearance of the velocity curve out to a large radius.” (Wikipedia).

 

 

It is now estimated that 85% of the mass in the observed universe consists of dark matter. To be “light matter,” that is “luminous,” microcosms must first undergo high pressure that forces their submicrocosms to converge. That is what happens when hydrogen atoms are pushed together to form helium in the Sun resulting in heat and light. Those special conditions are relatively rare in the Infinite Universe, particularly when you consider the vast distances between cosmic bodies. I suspect the 85% is a gross underestimate.

 

As I explained in Aether Deceleration Theory[1], the whole process of creation amounts to the slowing down of high-velocity aether particles. At first, small aether particles are pushed by other aether particles toward large aether particles where they are partly sheltered from further impacts. Glancing blows then cause these smaller particles to revolve around the larger ones, forming aether complexes. What was once linear motion then becomes circular motion which, in effect, amounts to high-velocity submicrocosmic motion at the same time as it amounts to relatively low-velocity motion of the resulting microcosm (aetherial complex). When aetherial matter forms large enough complexes, we observe them as baryonic (ordinary) matter. The formation of the rest of the universal hierarchy continues similarly.

 

We experience the same process when we observe gravitation. As is well known, gravitation is an acceleration. As Newton taught, acceleration of one body always produces an equivalent deceleration of the colliding body. This is where dark matter comes in. All baryonic matter is subject to collisions from high-velocity aether particles, resulting in the pushes we know as gravitation. The decelerated aether particles tend to accumulate as a halo around each baryonic complex. In effect, that is what Zwicky and Rubin had to hypothesize as “dark matter” in explaining their results. The upshot is that the process of creation and gravitation are one and the same. Both simply involve the deceleration and densification of aetherial and baryonic matter.

 

Note that, despite their ground-breaking discovery of dark matter, neither Zwicky nor Rubin and her colleagues ever received a Nobel Prize. One does not receive that for proving Einstein wrong, only for proving him right, no matter how contorted and misconstrued the explanation. For instance, the discovery of a speed-of-light shock wave recently dubbed a “gravitational wave” was awarded to the usual aether deniers in a matter of months.]

The new Thirty Meter Telescope to discover the infinite universe

PSI Blog 20210802 The new Thirty Meter Telescope to discover the infinite universe

 

A book prize goes to Rick Dutkiewicz for these questions about the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) being built on Mauna Kea:

 

“Dr. Glenn,

 

Here’s a big question and challenge for you.

 

What are your predictions for the Thirty Meter Telescope?

 

1. What are some of the more obvious ad hocs that will need to be tacked onto the BBT after they see beyond the distance (and temporal) limits imposed by that theory?

 

2. What are some of the discoveries that you hope might shake up mainstream physics and astronomy? They say that they will be able to map dark matter to see very fine details in the structure of dark matter “clouds”.

 

I know you have a LOT to say about all these future observations, but how much do you dare to predict?

Take some liberties; give us your cocktail party observations; you are among friends.

[GB: Thanks so much Rick for the challenge. Here you go:

 

“1. What are some of the more obvious ad hocs that will need to be tacked onto the BBT after they see beyond the distance (and temporal) limits imposed by that theory?”

 

The primary mirror of the Hubble Space Telescope is only 2.4 m wide, while this one will be 30 m wide, which is over 3 times that of the largest earth-bound telescope. In addition, a laser will be used to subtract atmospheric interference. Rick, as you know, humanity is extremely self-centered. Even the tiny Hubble telescope resulted in the discovery 2 trillion galaxies, each with about 400 billion stars similar to our own Milky Way galaxy—with no mea culpa from cosmogonists about all that exploding out of nothing. The myopism will soon take another blast from the TMT (under construction) as well as one from the Webb Space Telescope due in October.

 

Obviously, the Big Bang Theory and the religious assumptions on which it is based[1] will be severely strained. Those strains traditionally have taken their toll in believability, but, so far, they have been overcome by those properly compensated. There have been many changes to the BBT. In 1949 George Gamow, one of its early promoters said “…astronomers have calculated that the origin of the universe dates back about three billion years. Other astronomical and geological conclusions arrived at independently corroborate this date.”[2] Of course, having continued to climb out of their nearsighted box, cosmogonists relented, with the currently “corroborated” date being 13.8 or 13.7 billion years. My bet is that both the Webb Telescope and TMT will reveal still more galaxies. The perfectly empty space necessary for perpetual photon travel, universal expansion, and creation from nothing will never be found.

 

Will the $1.4 billion spent on the TMT have been wasted? Not really. No matter how ridiculous our theories have been, we always end up with more data. Rick, as you suggest, the problem for cosmogonists will be to invent ad hocs to “confirm” the Big Bang Theory once again. Here are some possibilities:

 

More Elderly Galaxies Seen

 

Some Hubble photos already hinted at this. In addition to the elderly galaxies up to 13.4 billion light years away, there is nondescript radiation coming from between the relatively well-defined galaxies. This probably will be from well-defined galaxies as well. Some ad hocs:

 

1.   The equations used to get the 13.8-Ga age of the universe will be adjusted to reflect the maximum z values (cosmological redshifts).

2.   A new theory involving “superinflation” will be proposed and accepted.

3.   The greater than 13.8-Ga ages will be considered to be the outer edge of an adjoining oxymoronic “multiverse.”

 

Perfectly Empty Space Seen

 

This is highly unlikely. As mentioned, there already is evidence for more stuff beyond the current limit of observation. In spite of that, some religious folks seem ready to bet me perfectly empty space will “exist” there. That reminds me of the One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge at which over a thousand people failed to demonstrate any supernatural abilities. I thought the dowsing test was particularly interesting. Water well drillers commonly pay good money to have prospective sites “witched” or “dowsed” before drilling. I have a colleague who cleans up those failures by using geologic evidence to locate aquifers instead. Rick, any chance you would like to set up a Perfectly Empty Space Challenge?

 

1.   Of course, at some point our telescopes will reach the limit of detection. True to their affliction, positivists will then claim that perfectly empty space was found and that Einstein was right once again. Those who have read my bit on Untired Light Theory know that religious assumption has been accepted for millennia. Remember, creation requires perfectly empty space.  

2.   As light loses energy over distance, it will become so red-shifted and so dim that no illuminated bodies could ever be seen. Cosmogonists will accept that result as fine “proof” of perfectly empty space, the “event horizon,” and the outer reach of their assumed “expanding, finite universe.”

 

Readers are welcome to come up with some ad hocs for either of these possibilities that will help the cosmogonists out during their hours of need. Paradigm failure is mentally taxing; bamboozling the gullible is morally taxing. It is not going to be pretty.

 

Now for question number 2:

 

“What are some of the discoveries that you hope might shake up mainstream physics and astronomy? They say that they will be able to map dark matter to see very fine details in the structure of dark matter “clouds”.”

 

I imagine you also wondered way all celestial matter should be luminous. The formation of luminous bodies requires high pressures, which only can be the result of intense convergence due to gravitation. Why would all microcosms have those properties? Most probably would not. In UCT[3] Steve and I speculated that dark matter (DM) was nonluminous unattached planets that would not show up in our telescopes. Since then, I developed Aether Deceleration Theory, which simply states that the acceleration of gravitation must result in deceleration of something ubiquitous and local: aether.

 

I suspect the new instruments will find some DM, but not enough to explain Vera Rubin’s data.[4] That is because most of the DM is low-pressure, decelerated aether entrained around most cosmic bodies. It is unlikely any telescope (or microscope) could see such small particles.[5] Then too, cosmologists are now finding gravitational evidence for numerous solitary “black holes” scattered throughout the universe. I figure these are just the dying remnants of galaxies indicative of the Infinite Universe. They simply are galactic nuclei that have accreted most of their stars and are now subject to divergence. Rick, you are right that the failure to find most of the dark matter will push cosmogonists toward a belated acceptance of aether. But don’t hold your breath.]
