Thank you.

A wonderfully interesting idea, Hegel is a very profound thinker.

I am sorry that this is so mundane in comparison. Here I was just starting with the physical link and hoping to work it through towards these more noble ideas.

First I hoped to just to unify quantum and general relativity and explain dark energy for the appearance of space showing accelerated expansion.

Initially it is space that stretches pointing to many billions of years before matter can no longer hold together and gives out theoretically.

I looked at this from the view that if space initially stretches there must be a uniform connecting force causing it. That should only happen if there is a link to all matter. The only available link is gravity.

Thought experiment, a glass of liquid say oil and half way down put a membrane across so that water can not pass. Put a droplet of water in at the top, it slowly falls until it sits on the membrane. The oil above represents the air, the water the falling body and the membrane the planet surface.

If this experiment was then subjected to a vacuum it would fly apart. If gravity could also exhibit a density then the link is made to dark energy being an opposing pull outwards of gravity.

All the Newtonian and Einstein gravity models hold true as we are only measuring the difference not the full density. My idea was never to invalidate superb work done but to offer an enhancement that might link general relativity to quantum theory and keep both intact.


"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."...Albert Einstein
