All theories regarding the structure of the universe must have the ability explain or predict all observations.\u00c2\u00a0 If not they must be modified or discarded.\u00c2\u00a0 As scientists, we there are no other options. <\/span><\/p>\n

Recently it has been shown the properties of Dark Matter and the anomalous accelerations of the NASA’s Pioneer 10 and 11 space probes cannot be explained or predicted by the presently accepted theoretical models. <\/span>
\nAdditionally, the observed properties of Dark Matter appear to conflict with the basic assumption of modern quantum theories, that all matter is composed of particles because all attempts to resolve them have failed. <\/span><\/p>\n

Some say this is because we have not yet developed the technology to resolve its particle properties. <\/span><\/p>\n

But the reason may be because it is not made up of particles but a continuous or non-particle field of energy\/mass as suggested in the article “<\/span>What is dark matter?<\/span><\/a>” <\/span>Sep 10, 2007. <\/span><\/p>\n

However if its existence is in part responsible for the gravitational potential associated with Dark matter it<\/span> ma<\/span>y also be one of the casual factors for anomalous accelerations that “The American Institute of Physics” reported NASA has observed in it space probes. <\/span><\/p>\n

The following article which appeared in the Physics News Update The American Institute of Physics Bulletin of Physics News http:\/\/www.aip.org\/physnews\/update\/ Number 391, September 15, 1998 by Phillip F. Schewe and Ben Stein of NASA reported observing an anomalous acceleration in several of its space probes that would be consistent with this paper the concept of a continuous non-quantized field of energy\/mass. (These findings of Phillip F Schewe and Ben Stein were confirmed in Physics News update http:\/\/www.aip.org\/physnews\/update\/ article 447)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

ANOMALOUS ACCELERATION Data from several spacecraft, including Pioneer 10 and 11, Galileo, and Ulysses provide evidence for an unexplained, weak, long-range acceleration, a new report shows. Position and velocity information is derived from radio signals sent from the craft to the Deep Space Network back on Earth. Any change in velocity over time can be ascribed to a variety of known sources: the sun and planets, the solar wind, the Milky Way, the Kuiper belt, etc. But even after taking this all into account, as well as other possibilities such as the presence of dark energy\/mass in the solar system (only a millionth of a solar energy\/mass of dark energy\/mass could reside within the orbit of Uranus, it is estimated) or gas leakage from the vehicles themselves, a small acceleration in the direction of the Sun—8 x 10-8 cm\/sec^2 for Pioneer 10—remains unaccounted for. Signs of this anomaly first appeared in the Pioneer tracking as long ago as 1980 Pioneer 10 was launched in 1972 and is presently 70 astronomical units from Earth. Now six space scientists, armed with many years of Pioneer data, supplemented with trajectory information from Galileo and Ulysses, have carried out the first thorough analysis of the problem and find the anomaly to be as persistent as ever. (The Voyager spacecraft are less useful for determining acceleration anomalies.) The researchers doubt but do not rule out the possibility of a novel gravitational effect or other kind of new physics. Alternative explanations include subtle systematic errors in the data analysis or unexpected aspects of space navigation. Further work on this problem may extend to the observed motions of planets, comets, and the proposed Pluto Express craft. (John D. Anderson et al., Physical Review Letters, 5 October 1998 contact John Anderson at JPL, 818-354-3956, john.d.anderson@jpl.nasa.gov or Michael Nieto at Los Alamos, 505-667-6127, mmn@mmn.lanl.gov journalists can obtain copies of the article from AIP Public Information.)”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(The acceleration of NASA space probes is directed towards the sun so therefore it would be defined as deceleration with respect sun)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For example <\/span>deceleration caused by a gravitational component of continuous non particle field would be analogous to the slowing or decelerating effects air has on the movement of aircraft.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Air provides resistance to the movement of an aircraft causing it to slow or decelerate.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Similarly, if space was made up of a continuous non-particle field it would provide “gravitational resistance<\/b>” to a space probes movement causing them to decelerate.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

However, if it is true that a portion of the energy loss associated the anomalous acceleration NASA has observed on its deep space probes is due to its existence it may be possible to analytically correlate it with the red shift in stars spectrum.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In the article “<\/span><\/span>The cosmological redshift<\/span><\/span><\/a>” it was shown why an extremely small percentage<\/i> of the energy loss associated with the red shift observed in star’s spectra may not<\/i> be due to its velocity relative to the earth but to the properties of a continuous field component of space.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A cosmological redshift occurs when the light received from distant objects is shifted in such way that the wavelength of the light we are seeing is longer than the wavelength of the light that was emitted by the object we are looking at. This is like hearing the siren of a fire truck shift to a lower pitch as it moves away from us and the difference in pitch is an indication of how fast it is moving away from us.\u00c2\u00a0 Similarly most <\/span>astronomers assume the entire energy loss or frequency change associated with a red shift in a stars spectrum is due to its movement away from us. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

However, as mentioned earlier if energy loss associated with the red shift observed is due to the gravitational <\/b>components of a continuous non-particle field than one should be able to correlate it with the portion of the energy loss experience by Nasa’s deep space probes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One could determine if of the energy loss associated with the red shift is due to its interaction with light by independently determining a stars velocity with respect to the earth and then comparing that value to the one obtained by its red shift.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 If one then divides the difference between these two values by the star’s distance from the earth one could quantify the energy loss associated with it per unit distance traveled. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Using this value NASA could calculate how much energy loss would be caused by it because they know the distance they have traveled.\u00c2\u00a0 If it agrees with the energy loss associated with the anomalous acceleration they have observed their space probes it would have a tendency to verify the existence of a continuous non-quantized gravitational field<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As was pointed out in the above Physics News Update article even after taking into account “other possibilities such as the presence of “Dark Matter” in the solar system the observed deceleration of these space probes cannot be accounted for.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

However, a continuous field of energy\/mass would not have been included in those calculations because as was mentioned earlier <\/span>it would be un<\/span><\/span>detectable by modern instrumentation because they are only calibrated to detect mass in its particle form. <\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, one must add the decelerating properties this article associates with a continuous non particle gravitational field to that NASA associates with the particular “Dark Matter” to obtain the total of the deceleration experienced by the space probes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The reason NASA’s calculations regarding the decelerations on its space probes mentioned in the above article are “anomalous” is because they only used the decelerative properties they associated with the particular “Dark Matter” to calculate the accelerations and did not factor in the deceleration that would be caused by the existence of a continuous non-quantized field of energy\/mass.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, if a space was composed of continuous non-particle field, the calculations involving the decelerations of NASA’s space probes will be incorrect or anomalous because it was not included in them.<\/span><\/p>\n

It should be remember the decelerations caused by an interaction of a planet or other massive object moving through a non-particle or non-baryonic component of space would be infinitesimal compared to the decelerations caused by their interactions with its baryonic component.\u00c2\u00a0 This would make difficult to detect it by analyzing the orbital motion of planets.\u00c2\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

However, the cumulative decelerative effect would be detectable on NASA’s space probes because of the distance they have traveled and the precision by which they are able to determine their velocities. <\/span><\/p>\n

This means the theoretical model proposed in\u00c2\u00a0this blog<\/span> which incorporates the existence of a continuous non-particle field of energy\/mass would have the ability to explain and predict the quantum mechanical properties of energy\/mass, the observations regarding Dark Matter and the anomalous decelerations of NASA space probes where as the presently accepted theories do not. <\/span><\/p>\n
