The causality of motion

According to Newton’s view, force does not the cause motion but only a change in it and because a freely moving object continues to move inertia and motion in itself needs no causal explanation. However as Gao, Shan points out in on page 29 of his book “God Does Play Dice with the Universe” there … Read more

The illusion that is time.

Does time have a physical existence?  If it does why are we not able point to it and say there it is?  If it does not why do physicists define our universe in terms of its physical properties? This question is relevant because Einstein theories, the foundation of modern cosmology are based on the physical … Read more

Dark Matter and its affect on Hubble’s law

Would the existence of Dark Matter affect Hubble’s laws and our understanding of evolution of the universe? In the article “What is Dark Matter?” Sept 10, 2007 it was shown that assuming space is composed of a continuous field of energy/mass would give an explanation for the gravitational component of Dark Matter that is consistent … Read more

The geometry of Quantum Mechanics

We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth *Spatial* Dimension” there would be many theoretically advantages to defining the universe in terms of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time. One is that it would allow for the integration of the quantum mechanical and wave properties of energy/mass … Read more

Spaceship Spitzer and the black hole

It should be remember both sides of most stories have a lesson. For example, many sci-fi writers use the fact that the gravitational force of a black hole is so intense that nothing can escape from its “clutches” to develop their story lines.  However, many of them fail to point out the other side of … Read more
