Albert Einstein in the address “Aether and the theory of Relativity” delivered on May 5th 1920 at the University of Leyden Germany indicated that The General Theory of Relativity predicts, “space is endowed with physical qualities”. “Recapitulating, we may say that according to the General Theory of Relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in … Read more
In 1998 a force called Dark Energy was discovered when the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) found that, a long time ago, the Universe was actually expanding more slowly than it is today. In other words its expansion has not been slowing due to gravity, as everyone thought, it has been accelerating. Since then several different … Read more
What is the fabric of the cosmos? Einstein told us that it is made up of a dynamic balance between the properties of space and time. For example he told us that space is a sort of multidimensional fabric, where the presence of mass causes the fabric of space-time to curve. However he did not … Read more
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
Can we justify defining the reality of an environment based on our inability to define its reality. The uncertainty principal of quantum mechanics tells us that we cannot know or observe the precise amount of energy contained in microscopic physical system over very short intervals of time. Some physicists feel that because they cannot know … Read more
