ANNOUNCEMENTS &
NEW ITEMS:
(Most recent at top of column)
(2024 July 12): Press Release:
Remarkable convergence of gravity theory and empirical evidence has revealed
the cosmic-scale geometry of the Universe.
The DSSU research article "Natural
Cosmic-Scale Geometry of Our Universe" has now been published. Links
are posted here. □
Meanwhile, the war on civilization escalates:
● See the reports at Big Sky Free Press –Beyond the Headlines
(http://www.bsfreepress.net/)
● Assassination attempt on President Donald Trump (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozCQwPyVKlE).
(2024 June 21): After some now-familiar rounds of fake reviews and
rejections, the latest DSSU research article —entitled Natural
Cosmic-Scale Geometry of Our Universe— has been accepted for
publication. It is an outstanding work, outstanding in the sense that
the underlying theory agrees wonderfully with the empirical evidence —the
abundant and incontrovertible astronomical observations. This is science of
the highest standard. And yet, one reviewer flatly asserted, “It is
completely unscientific,” and recommended rejecting the article
(prompting the editor of the Journal of High Energy Physics, Gravitation
and Cosmology to decline its publication). What!? Thirty-eight
supporting references is not science!? And what about the text and
diagrammatic content being as clear as a cloudless day? … Yes, that
journal, and two others, recognized a serious threat to their sacred
Worldview. □
Meanwhile the decline of civilization and the loss of freedom
continues.
There is an ongoing reinstitution of the ancient practice of
slavery. "During this revival of servitude and oppression, the systems of
enslavement have been greatly upgraded and enhanced, for the purpose of
effectively enslaving the entire human race."
"One of the true motivations behind the DNA altering vaccines, that
are being imposed on all of humanity, is to genetically engineer mankind
with a view to create a new model of human that will perfectly obey
their modern masters."
–Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, Corona Investigative Committee, Grand
Jury Summary (
www.StopWorldControl.com )
(2024 March 8): The Cosmic Geometry paper is currently being
peer-reviewed.
Meanwhile: “The disintegration of Western civilization is
proceeding so rapidly that I cannot keep up with it even as a full time job.
… It is happening right in front of our eyes.” –PaulCraigRoberts.org
(2024 February): New research paper, focusing on the large-scale geometry
of the Cosmos, is currently being readied for publication. It details
the arrangement of gravity cells and how the rhombic dodecahedron is
embedded within a superoctahedron.
Meanwhile: Reflect on the mega-crime of the last century —Dresden
Hellstorm (February 13-15, 1945). It is appalling to think its
perpetrators were actually hailed as war heroes!
● The
Blood of Dresden by Kurt Vonnegut

(2023 October): The
Gerhard Herzberg Award, 2023: Canada's most prestigious prize for
science and engineering went to Yoshua Bengio, a scientist who
helped make the AI revolution possible. As the scientific director of the
Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms and professor at the University
of Montreal, he is both excited and cautious about the future of the
technology he helped create. Congratulations.
(2023 October 12): George Orwell Free Speech Award, 2023:
Congratulations to Jurgen Neumann who was presented with the award
“For outstanding courage in challenging censorship and defending freedom in
pursuit of the truth and for outstanding talent as a freedom communicator &
videographer …”
(2023 September): Newly posted:
Question regarding The Fermi Paradox.
Where are other advanced civilizations?
Meanwhile, history continues to repeat itself and teach essential
lessons:
“As is becoming increasingly more obvious, even to historical novices,
mainstream academia, mass media and what passes for journalism these days is
agenda driven, not truth driven. Certain narratives and ideas that
advance particular agendas are elevated and promoted, while dissenting or
alternative perspectives and viewpoints are hysterically dismissed or
censored.” –The Barnes
Review Vol.29, No.5 (Sept/Oct 2023, p69)
(2023 August):
Important UPDATE to the so-call discovery/detection of gravity
waves (the ones predicted by Einstein’s geometric gravity theory). Turns
out no gravity waves were detected! Just as I had suspected and reported
years ago. … What the LIGO and VIRGO teams actually found was a match-up
between measured signal noise and preprogrammed idealized wave
patterns (i.e., computer stored preexisting general-relativity gravity
waves). It was simply the result of a computerized search to obtain a very
approximate and partial fit between measured signal and simulated “chirps.”
…What was presented to the ever-credulous public was not the actual recorded
waves, but rather the pre-stored-in-computer-memory idealized wave patterns!
Such are the findings of a collaboration of four researchers. [Abstract
& link to full article in the International Astronomy and
Astrophysics Research Journal]
Meanwhile, the collapse continues:
“The United States is falling apart in real time.” –The Barnes Review (July/Aug 2023,
p30)
Suppressed is the essence of the spirit needed to resist the accompanying
enslavement: “That traditional suspicion and disdain of an overreaching
centralized government; that ambitious, fearless, risk-taking outlook; that
love of individual liberty and personal freedom; that hardworking,
productive, can-do attitude —these and similar characteristics are the
essence of the true American spirit.” –The Barnes Review (July/Aug 2023,
p22)
(2023 July 28):
Author’s Curriculum Vitae has been updated to include the discovery
of meta-thermodynamics processes.
(2023 July 21): The revolution in cosmology continues. The first
documentation of Nature’s entropy-lowering mechanism —involving a
structure encompassing two separate and independent processes— has been
published. The latest DSSU article presents a discussion of how cosmic-scale
entropy neutrality is maintained —how two processes prevent the Universe
from ever running down. Press
Release.
Meanwhile: The Great Enslavement continues. The ongoing
implementation measures and events —including real and imagined crises— are
too numerous for the average person to keep track of, let alone deal with.
Sometimes too covert to recognize. Oftentimes seemingly benevolent, like the
pending implementation of digital currency. And always propagandized.
(2023 July 1): The report on Nature’s Entropy-Lowering
Processes has been accepted for publication. Five of five
journal-appointed Reviewers deemed the research article to be
"scientifically correct." ... Details to follow.
(2023 March 24 ... April 15): Latest research paper Nature’s Entropy-Lowering
Processes is currently under review.
Meanwhile: Tyranny in Canada! The persecution of Pastor Artur
Pawlowski. Listen to the incredible first-hand account: Just Right Program
#802 (2023-3-16)
(2023 February): DSSU research article currently being prepared deals with
entropy ... with a focus on Nature's remarkable entropy-lowering
mechanism.
(2023 January 16): Who would believe it! An American official holiday for
communism and its foremost promoter. Clearly the lessons of history have
been ignored … all the while the repression, and enslavement, continues.
(2023 January): DSSU Cosmology is now into its 22nd year
on the Internet —the revolution continues.

Excerpts:
● “The man accredited with discovering universe expansion did not believe
that the universe was expanding. Hubble was convinced that the key evidence,
the cosmic redshift, was caused by some other factor, something more
fundamental than mere expansion.”
● “With the recent discovery of a new cosmic-redshift mechanism, and its
theoretical validation, it turns out that Hubble was right.”
● Explains how “an infinite, non-expanding, perpetually regenerating
universe" is able to predict a dark night sky.

The Cosmology Debate That Never Happened
What historians call "the greatest cosmological debate in
history” was between TWO expanding universes —two

foundational property! If one is to claim some great clash of ideas (let
alone the "greatest") then surely there must exist some deep dividing
difference! (Posted 2011-10)

An Open Letter to the Scientific Community
(Published in New Scientist, May 22, 2004)
"The big bang today relies on a growing number of
hypothetical entities, things that we have never observed-- inflation, dark
matter and dark energy are the most prominent examples. Without them, there
would be a fatal contradiction between the observations made by astronomers
and the predictions of the big bang theory. In no other field of physics
would this continual recourse to new hypothetical objects be accepted as a
way of bridging the gap between theory and observation. It would, at the
least, raise serious questions about the validity of the underlying theory.

INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM:
This website is mainly concerned with revisionism in cosmology. Those of us
involved in replacing the unnatural expanding-universe paradigm are aware of
the difficulties involved.
However,
other revisionists have unimaginable difficulties. Consider the ongoing
persecution of revisionists in other fields of intellectual pursuit:
"It makes you wonder —about the immense effort being made
by State and State-sponsored organizations with budgets of tens of millions
of dollars and thousands of employees and associates to smother and punish
these few men and women. Every punishing instrument imaginable is used,
every vicious slander conceivable, every flagrant and pervasive form of
censorship that law allows, including the imprisonment of simple writers for
thought crimes against the State. ... Makes you wonder." —Bradley R. Smith (2011-1)
●
"Discussing truth is so controversial, so dangerous … In most of the world it is simply illegal.”
–
Gordon Duff, Senior Editor, Veterans Today (2011)
●
"The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who
speak it." –George Orwell
● Why the suppression of free speech is so deadly dangerous:
“When you silence the man of the pen, you
must deal with the man of the sword.” –proverb
● "Free speech is the
essence of Civilization."

DEDICATION: This website is solemnly dedicated to those
individuals who have conducted research in their chosen field and have
informed others of their inquiries and suffered the consequences when
subpoenaed by the Inquisition or some variant thereof. The dedication
extends to those individuals currently imprisoned, and those facing
trial and persecution simply for exercising their basic human right of
freedom of expression supposedly granted to them under the UN Charter of
Human Rights.
"Every
year, hundreds of writers and other literary professionals around the world
are imprisoned, prosecuted, persecuted, attacked, threatened, forced into
exile or even murdered as a result of their work."
ALSO: Be aware of the continuing threat to our precious freedom of expression on the
Internet. The threat is serious and relentless. It is described as “… the formal effort to mimic Communist China’s
system of Internet censorship.” –

End of free speech in Britain:
A publisher of history books in Britain has reported that “due to new laws
in the UK all their books will have to be censored moving forward” to avoid
criminal penalties for “inciting racial hatred.” –The Barnes Review (2020 March/April)
p77
A hostile jury, by a hasty unanimous
verdict, decided that British Nationalist Leader Jez Turner deserves to be sent to
jail for his critical views! Report (2018-5-15).
British Maverick Psychologist
jailed for publishing his research. … “The ambivalence of librarians
getting writers imprisoned quite defies comprehension.” –Simon Sheppard
(2013)
In repressive Germany:
Ursula Haverbeck,
89, Sentenced to 14 Months in Jail for Heresy! –2017 November
This amazing 89-year-old woman continues advocating under the dictum: "Only
the truth will set you free”.
Mrs. Haverbeck, along with her late husband, founded the education facility
Collegium Humanum in 1963, but which was banned by the Marxist thought police in
2008.
Update (2018-5-16): Ursula Haverbeck will celebrate her 90th birthday in a
German prison
cell. The sprightly grandmother is now serving a
two-year prison term without parole merely for stating a sincerely
held opinion that is supported by acclaimed academics worldwide!!
“Frau Haverbeck is now sentenced to two years in prison, merely for her
peaceful historical research” –The Barnes Review Vol.24, No.5
(Sept/Oct 2018) p71
UPDATE (2019-11):
On November 9th (2019), the very day of Ursula Haverbeck’s 91st. birthday,
hundreds of German nationalists, patriots and friends, well-wishers and
admirers rallied in her support. Report on the Rally to Celebrate
Political Prisoner Ursula Haverbeck.
Update (2020-12): This 92-year-old peaceful woman has just
been released from jail, having spent 2&1/2 years behind bars, and less than
2 weeks later was in court in Berlin for more charges ... was
again sentenced to prison!!!

The Supreme Irony:
Fellow freedom-lovers and truth-seekers, please pay
close attention. ... Chemist, historian, and author, Germar Rudolf
sums up the persecution in Germany as follows:
“Now I will summarize here the pseudo-logic hiding behind this absurd and
criminal nonsense of persecuting dissidents. This logic of those in power in
[Germany] really amounts to this:
Because in the past minorities have been persecuted, dissidents imprisoned
and books burned, one feels obliged to do everything in order to prevent a
repetition —even if that entails having to persecute minorities, imprison
dissidents and burn books. [Italics as in the original.]
Because that is exactly what is happening today! Absolutely nothing has been
learned from the past. The table is merely turned around, and for a change a
different group is now being persecuted.”

1. Why Copernicus Did Not Need a Force
of Gravity
Most people are surprised to learn
that Copernicus (1473-1543), indeed, did not need a gravitational force. In
his "revolutionary" view, the Earth did not need a gravitational force and
neither did the Copernican Solar System. The motion of Earthly objects and
of the planets (and other heavenly bodies) was governed by principles
developed by the Ancients. ... Gravity was not one of them.

If we look back to the Ancient Greeks and examine the system devised
by Aristotle (384-322 BC), we find that his Geocentric cosmos did not need a
force of gravity. The cosmos was ruled by the principles of natural motion. The
natural motion of any terrestrial object involved "seeking its natural place."
Since their natural place, it was reasoned, was at the center of the Earth, all falling objects
were in "natural motion." No force was involved in such motion. As for
celestial bodies, their natural
motion involved moving in circles around the Earth and, so, they accorded with their natural position as an embedded body on one or
another transparent-and-rotating celestial sphere. In the celestial realm
of concentric crystal spheres, Aristotle's system embodied Pythagoras's geometric ideal of perfect circular
orbits. In the celestial realm, as in the terrestrial, no force was involved.
We could go even further back, before the time of Aristotle, and consider the
rings-and-spheres system devised by Anaximander. Anaximander of Miletus (also
known as Anaximandros) was born about 610 BC and died some
time after 547 BC. Anaximander argued that the Sun was a
hole in a fire-filled ring that encircled the Earth and revolved around it. The
Moon was an opening in a separate fire-filled ring. The Moon-ring, however, had
passages shaped like pipes through which the light from the fire escaped.
Thus the phases of the Moon were explained by the Moon-pipe opening seen from
various angles. The stars, he believed, were nothing more than holes in a
rotating sphere, revealing otherwise hidden fires of the firmament.
And what, you might ask, kept the rings and spheres turning and kept the heavenly bodies moving along their
celestial paths before the discovery of "natural motion" by the Ancients? ... It
was the intervention of divine beings, the truly ancient mythical gods. It was
pure magic. Helios the God of the Sun was conveyed in a chariot drawn by seven
horses on daily journeys across the sky. The Egyptian version has Ra the Sun God
being ferried by a heavenly boat as it cyclically sails across the daylight sky
and through the dark Underworld. Each wandering star (planet) was under the
control of a patron god or several gods.
Aristarchus of Samos
~310 to ~230 BC |
The mathematician/astronomer Aristarchus of Samos (circa 280 BC) did
not need a force of gravity for his Heliocentric system. Although Aristarchus is
usually credited with being the first to place the Sun in a stationary state at
the center of the universe the idea can be traced back to earlier philosophers.
There was Philolaus of Croton, a pupil of the Pythagorean school in the 5th
century BC, who suggested that the Earth orbits the Sun, not vice versa. Then,
in the following century, the philosopher Heracleides of Pontus built on
Philolaus’ ideas. The final touches were added by Aristarchus, who was born in
310 BC, the same year that Heracleides died.[1] Like his fellow contemporary
Greeks, Aristarchus subscribed to Aristotle's
principles of motion for keeping his system running effortlessly. No force was
required. Earth and the planets simply followed preordained, perfectly circular,
orbits. However, having the Sun stationary at the center with the Earth flying
around in "natural circular motion" was, at the time, considered too radical ! The idea was shelved and lay dormant for almost eighteen centuries.
Heliocentric versus Geocentric:
The Greek State (and later the Roman State) was
the center of the civilized world —the focal point of reason and
order. But it is the nature of a powerful State to inflate its own
importance beyond all reasonable bounds. Why be content with holding
the central position of Man's world, when the State could be at the
very center of the Cosmos. And so, the Geocentric system received
State sponsorship, the Heliocentric system did not. And the Earth
became the center of the Universe.
For a modern analogy consider the American State during the 20th
century. This powerful nation vastly expanded its influence and dominance over
the world. It comes as no surprise that, as the ruling imperial State, it would (and did)
sponsor an expanding-universe cosmology. The idea of a stable and steady-state
universe was ridiculed. And so, our Worldview became dominated by
an absurdly unnatural Big Bang.
The Big Bang cosmology is supported by the Official space
agency, NASA, and big budgets courtesy of the imperial State. |
It happened that Aristotle's system rose to dominancy. Sadly, what was
actually valid, the Aristarchean Heliocentricity, had been rejected; and what
was dubiously valid, the natural state of circular motion, had been retained. In
time, this error, no doubt, would have been discovered and quickly corrected.
However, the Geocentric system became the "official" system backed by State and
Church (often one and the same). ... Aristotle's Worldview became the
theoretical foundation of Claudius Ptolemy's detailed astronomical system, which
he documented in
the monograph know as the Almagest. It was also adopted by the Christian Church (to the future
consternation of Galileo).
Fast-forward many long centuries. It is the 16th century and Nicolaus
Copernicus (1473-1543) has rediscovered the old Aristarchean System. By this
time, not surprisingly, things had changed very little. The Official system
still reigned (almost supreme) and everything still worked without a force of
gravity.

"Copernicus himself seems to have
thought, in Aristotelian fashion, that the natural motion of the
planets is circular, and he therefore required no special force to
keep them in their orbits." --M.B. Hesse
[2] |
|
We also find that Galileo (1564-1642) was a supporter of the no-force system.
|
"Similarly, Galileo suggests that
the planets were at first given their uniform motion by the Creator,
and that a circular orbit is appropriate to uniform motion, which can
continue indefinitely." --M.B. Hesse

Copernicus, as well as Galileo, simply went with the flow: Aristotle had
stated the rules of natural motion; the rules were understood and had become an
enduring part of natural philosophy. There seemed no reason to change the
fundamentals of the world system. (In this light, the Copernican revolution of
demoting the functional position of the Earth appears rather timid.)
But then two discoveries spoiled everything.
First and foremost, Johannes Kepler (1571-1630), after brilliantly analyzing
the numbers that Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe had collected over many years, discovered that
orbits of the local heavenly bodies did not have the divined perfection of
circles. The visible planets actually moved in elliptical orbits. Now, this
was revolutionary. Whereas Copernicus and Galileo had made changes in the
visible structure of the world system, Kepler forced changes in the very
foundation.
Meanwhile, the work of Galileo led to the "discovery" that the natural state
of motion is neither circular nor exponentially downward, but rather uniformly
linear. Galileo, after conducting numerous experiments with rolling balls,
concluded that in the ideal case of zero resistance, horizontal motion would
never stop.
Galileo's rule for horizontal
motion:
Velocity is constant (constant magnitude, constant direction)
provided no force acts on the body. |
In the absence of a net force the motion of the moving ball continues without
change in a linear fashion. Newton, building on the foundation laid by Galileo,
formalized the state of natural motion in a single statement: An object that
is at rest will remain at rest, and an object that is moving will continue to
move in a straight line with constant speed, if and only if the net force acting
on the object is zero.
Let me sum up the situation. Aristotle, Copernicus, and Galileo thought
they had the ideal explanation for the orbital motions of the heavenly bodies.
Aristotle had his rotating harmonious spheres. Copernicus had his idealized
Solar system. Galileo had his Creator-induced heavenly-motion. They all believed
that the natural motion of heavenly bodies is circular. But, in due course, Kepler found
that that belief did not match reality. Kepler discovered that
the planetary orbits are not circular. Real-world orbits are elliptical! Why was
this discovery so revolutionary? ... Because it meant there was some kind of
force, or influence, causing the planets to vary in speed and radial distance. It
meant there was a force that causes the new Newtonian "natural" motion to
deviate from its natural straight-line path.
Isaac Newton (1642-1727), in the 17th century, codified the force-law
that could readily explain the evidence. At least he did so in mathematical
terms. The cosmology that Newton constructed
became the first in history to employ a force of gravity —a force that
mediates the interaction of all mass throughout the universe.
But there was a problem. A force of gravity, if it is to be consistent with
what it means to be a "force," requires a force carrier
—sort of a messenger
particle relaying the force's influence to other bodies (or between bodies). The
problem was, no force carriers have ever been found —not then, and not since.
For many years Newton had pondered the question of the nature of the agent
(modern "force carriers") necessary for the mediation of his gravitation force
but could draw no conclusion; unable even to decide whether such agent is material or immaterial, particulate or ethereal.
However, there is really no need for us to dwell on the missing force
carriers. It turns out that Newton's system was the exception to the rule.
Gravity, in fact, is not a true force.
Now, since I have finished answering the question suggested in the title of
this essay, it might be interesting to explore another chapter of this theme. I
invite the reader to join me in applying the same basic question to three or
four other world systems. The entire presentation is summarized in the
accompanying table.

2. Other World Systems
Let us, then, briefly examine why Einstein (1879-1955) did not need a
gravitational force.
Albert Einstein (date 1922)

Library, courtesy AIP Emilio Segre Visual Arch. |
In 1916-1917 Einstein constructed a universe, commonly known as the Einstein
Equilibrium model, based on a highly abstract theory of gravity called General
Relativity. Einstein's gravity was not a force in the usual sense, rather it was
an effect associated with the curvature of space.
The Einstein universe was a mathematical construction in which the curvature of
space (a mathematical concept) was intimately connected to the presence of matter;
that is, the quantity and density of matter determined the degree of curvature
of space. Now since Einstein's "space" was a mathematical abstraction, the
curvature distortion of such space must also be a mathematical abstraction.
But if the gravity effect is purely an abstraction,
how is it connected to the brick-and-mortar world of reality? ... No causal mechanism has ever been found to explain
how matter “curves” space and how “curvature” sustains a body’s orbital motion.
The problem is deepened by Einstein’s rejection of the existence of any sort of
detectable space medium. In his own words, taken from the famous Leyden Lecture
(1920):
|
"The [a]ether of the general
theory of relativity is a medium which is itself devoid of all
[original italics] mechanical and kinematic qualities."
"But this [a]ether may not be thought of as endowed with the
quality characteristic of ponderable media." –Einstein (1920)
[4] |
|
Einstein worked on the gravity theory for most of his life including the year
of his death, 1955. It is my conviction that because of his insistence on having
space as an abstraction (he called it the relativation of ether, or the
relativization of space, depending on the German-to-English translation), the
cause lurking behind the formulation of gravity was never found.
Now take careful note of the following. Originally (in 1905) Einstein had
been "arguing the total nonexistence of the aether" but by the time he
presented the Leyden Lecture (in 1920) he
had modified his view.
|
"More careful reflection teaches
us, however, that the special theory of relativity does not [after
all] compel us to deny ether." –Einstein (1920)
[5] |
|
His original nonexisting aether now became merely non-ponderable aether (as in the earlier quote
above) !
In other words, the aether that filled space was not a material substance —granted—
but it could be a non-material substance. Perhaps it is an ethereal substance
with unusual properties —including gravitational properties.
Einstein's retraction was, in hindsight, a wise move indeed. He basically
re-opened the aether door —the door
to a non-material medium.
Let me sum up Einstein's Equilibrium universe. It was a
static universe —notably non-expanding— which did not require gravity to be a
force.
In the years 1927 and 1929 the first Big Bang universe
appeared. Many versions followed throughout the rest of the 20th century.
This period in the history of cosmology can best be described as the Golden Age
of Expanding Universes. And, yes, even the Steady State models of Herman Bondi,
Thomas Gold, and Fred Hoyle were (are) members of this class. The vast majority
of these models did not require gravity to be a force. Why not? ... It
was because they were based on Einstein's curved-space gravity theory. There's
no need to repeat the problems with this concept; we simply accept that the Big
Bang models are mathematical universes (albeit highly unnatural and highly
speculative representations). Instead, there is a simple question to consider.
Given that gravity is a
spacetime distortion effect, and not a force, why are Big Bang proponents
searching for force carriers? Why this decades-long search for gravitons
!? And make no mistake, we’re talking about a perennially fruitless pursuit!
It would be nice, but I really don't expect a common sense
answer. Maybe there's a deep mathematical answer; maybe not. Meanwhile, the Big
Bang continues to be highly unnatural, highly speculative, and, in light
of the "force" ambivalence, highly confusing.
A new century, a new theory of gravity. The pivotal
year of 2002 witnessed the introduction of a combined luminiferous and
gravitational aether. In that year an Australian professor, Reginald T. Cahill,
developed a quantum foam theory of space. Space is a quantum system undergoing
classicalization and, at a deep substratum level, has the characteristics of a
quantum foam. From this quantum-foam aether, Cahill constructed an aether theory
of gravity. In his words:
|
"This quantum foam is in
differential motion [bulk in-flow towards mass which acts as a sink],
and the inhomogeneities and time dependencies of this motion cause
accelerations which we know as gravity." –R.T. Cahill
[6] |
|
Gravity has now become an inhomogeneous aether flow towards
mass/matter. Knowingly or unknowingly Cahill had explored behind the
nonmaterial-aether door which Einstein had left open (back in 1920) but had
never exploited.
Reginald Cahill
(1945- )

The theory is truly powerful. Cahill has discovered a second gravitational
constant, which is actually the dimensionless fine structure constant
α, with which it is possible to resolve
numerous so-called ‘gravitational anomalies’ —the experimental observations of gravitational effects incompatible
with Newtonian gravity and general relativity. The best known of these is
the “dark matter” effect, namely that spiral galaxies appear to require at least
ten times the observed matter content in order to explain the high rotation
speeds of stars and gas clouds in the outer regions of the spiral disk. The
quantum foam theory of gravity makes it clear that the dark-matter effect is not
caused by any form of matter, but rather by a non-Newtonian aspect of gravity. [7]
Such is the explanatory capacity of process physics. But the relevant
point for us is this: Once more, gravity is not considered to be a force.
Turning now to the Cellular World-System called
the Dynamic Steady State Universe (DSSU). Gravity in the DSSU is not a force. It
is a side effect of a heretofore unrecognized natural process. Gravity is a side
effect of the way in which all matter —mass and radiation— is conducted by, and through,
the aether. Of course, keep in mind that the aether of our universe is, as
Einstein proposed in 1920, a non-material aether —an almost-but-not-quite-material medium. (In DSSU theory it is the
essence substance —described as the subquantum level of reality.)
Yes, gravity is a simple side effect. As gravity expert
John Wheeler had predicted, decades ago, it is utterly and astonishingly
simple —the simplicity that characterizes
inevitability.
|
"To my mind there must be, at the
bottom of it all, not an equation, but an utterly simple idea. And to
me that idea, when we finally discover it, will be so compelling, so
inevitable, that we will say to one another, ‘Oh, how beautiful. How
could it have been otherwise?’ ” –American physicist John
A. Wheeler (1985)
[8] |
|
Definition: The core (generic)
definition of gravity for the DSSU is much the same as for Cahill's Quantum-Foam
theory of gravity. The phenomenon of gravity is the inhomogeneous flow of the space
medium
towards matter, which acts as a sink. Note carefully, it is not the aether
motion itself but the inhomogeneity (effectively the acceleration) of the flow
that manifests the gravity effect.
The direction of gravity is along the line of the maximum rate of change of the
aether flow. The main cause (but not the root cause) of inhomogeneity is space-medium
contraction (and, depending on the type of cosmic region, space-medium
expansion). |
The key idea that underlies the effect of gravity is the unusual mode of
conduction of mass and radiation by the aether. The gravity that we are familiar
with is the byproduct associated with the amazing mode of conduction of all
radiant particles and all mass particles. To say that it is unusual is an
understatement. The process of conduction is unique. Prior to the DSSU
discovery, the concept simply did not exist ! Nothing like it has been
found in the literature.
Kepler, Galileo, and Newton redefined the nature of motion. Now the
Conduction Theory of Matter redefines the nature of gravity —revealing its
root cause.
The following DSSU research papers present the profound details:

distortion of spacetime induced by the presence of matter.) |
PROBLEM:
No causal mechanism has ever been found to explain how matter
“curves” space and how “curvature” sustains a body’s orbital
motion. The problem is deepened by Einstein’s initial rejection of the
