| | Re: Gravity and space Quote: | The first I’d like to say is that the whole universe exists within time, i.e. it can’t be imagined without it. As for space it isn’t homogenous “vacuum” within which all action (I mean all kinds of motions of solid and expended matter [of planets and suns] takes place), just opposite, I think that just space is the reason, the locomotive force that determines all kind of motion within universe | I do not agree that the whole Universe exists within time. Time is a consequence of the existence of matter where space itself is being generated by volume. The rate at which matter generates space is what we experience as the flow or arrow of time. You cannot have motion without space but I do agree that space is not homogenous as such because for objects with a large mass the spacetime field it generates is retarded causing a warp of space which we experience as gravity. This is easily modelled using simple geometry without the need to use Newton’s gravitational constant. Quote: I will try to analyze briefly and roughly space without explanation of mechanisms: Each solid body has its own space around it. This space I call figuratively space exp.bubble and it presents expansion by its nature. The central point of expansion (i.e. the center of it) and the center of solid body coincide. This expansion happens, lasts during the time permanently | This is very close to how True Relativity sees space. Each object has its own spacetime bubble surrounding it but in the case of TR space is constantly flowing by volume from matter. If the Universe is only about 13.75 billion years in age then the spacetime bubble will have a radius of about 1500AU so gravity is not a force that works over an infinite distance. Only objects inside the spacetime field will feel its gravity which gives a natural explanation for the almost fixed rotation of stars inside galaxies and the appearance of galaxy clusters without the need to include dark matter. Although the distances between stars are far greater than 1500AU space has billions of particles of matter and larger objects all generating their own spacetime fields which means space is like a thick soup of fields where each bubble is linked to the next bubble. It is a bit like bubbles in the middle of a washing up bowl, when they rotate they will rotate almost as one. Quote: | Space exp.bubble makes solid matter to concentrate to its center (to the center of this space exp.bubble), but attracts solid matter placed outside its bounds, i.e. outside of bounds of space exp.bubble, i.e. central part of space exp.bubble is for solid matter, but its periphery (inside part of boundary) – for expanded matter. | Your explanation looses me a little here. First of all where is your space exp.bubble coming from? Quote: | Also Space exp.bubble of solid matter (i.e. expansion) repulses the same kind of space bubble, which is neighboring it (e.g. spaces of the Earth and the Moon repulse each other and serve as a barrier between these solid heavenly bodies against falling of each on another, and the space of each attracts solid matter of another) | I am sorry but I can’t see how that would work. Gravity is a distortion of spacetime which causes objects to follow the geodesic. This makes gravity an attractive force, albeit a weak one. Here you seem to be saying that space is acting as a repulsive force. So far I cannot see the logic in this so can you explain it better? | |
