  • Prove Physics

    by Balungi Francis ...
    Since it was developed, Newton's law of gravitation and many other laws of physics cannot be derived from one grand underlying principle. Deriving Newton's law of gravitation or Einstein general relativity theory, would mean that gravity emerges from something else and that would mean that the only known Newton's law of universal gravity is no longer a fundamental law of physics.Although this ...

  • Ripples Beyond Light - The Rise of Superluminal Localization Theory

    by Jorge Vasconcelos ...
    Ripples Beyond Light: The Rise of Superluminal Localization Theory introduces a bold scientific framework that seeks to harmonize General Relativity and Quantum Physics.

  • Isaac Newton on the Action at a Distance in Gravity: With or Without God?

    by Nicolae Sfetcu ...
    The interpretation of Isaac Newton's texts has sparked controversy to this day. One of the most heated debates relates to the action between two bodies distant from each other (the gravitational attraction), and to what extent Newton involved God in this case. Practically, most of the papers discuss four types of gravitational attractions in the case of remote bodies: direct distance action as ... Read more

  • The MEDIUM Disclosure

    by smbarua ...
    Are you ready to stop floating in the void and start sailing the ocean?For over a century, physics has been haunted by a ghost. We have built models that require "Dark Matter" to hold galaxies together and "Dark Energy" to push them apart—invisible forces that make up 95% of reality, yet remain completely unexplained. We have accepted that space is an empty vacuum, a passive stage where matter ... Read more
