Re: will it go round in circles

In Response To: Re: will it go round in circles (oldmano'theC)

: i do hope your summer school includes a course on reading with comprehension,
: for you need it badly. and btw, ALL "proofs" are based on
: observations and theories to explain them which predict new observable
: effects. gravitational distortion of spacetime has been confirmed by
: observation of shifting star parallaxes during total eclipses and by
: recent observations of gravitational lenses. since photons are massless,
: and could not be affected by gravity as a mass would be, the distortions
: of the light could only be due to it traveling along a gravitationally
: "bent" geodesic. Einstein predicted both effects long before
: they were confirmed by many repeated observations.

: dig into the nature of atomic structure and tell me that degenerate matter is
: "normal, everyday" stuff. what a dillettante.

: that'd be cool. they're welcome to contact me. they seem like nice folk,
: unlike some of their more mouthy fans.

: read it again, carefully, please. mass warps spacetime. the warping cause
: accelerations in the vicinity of the mass. we call certain effects of that
: acceleration gravity. capish?

: which could mean the entire surface is paved with high-tech velcro. as long
: as you stick to it, it would be "artifical" gravity. see another
: post re: this semantic distinction.

Ouch, OOooooooooooohhh, AWWWOOOOOWWWW!

That really hurts man, I'm taken aback by your harsh words and tone. I am shocked. Almost too shocked for words.

Almost.

1) Seeing as I scored a 98% on the language section of the SAT, I doubt it. Although new knowledge is a welecome gift in all aspects of life.

2) All I want from you in the realm of 'Proof' is an admission that 'Proofs' are never infaliable, and that current 'proofs' do NOT negate the possibility of a device that creates what you call 'synthetic' gravity. At which point I would argue that gravity created by a device has the same quality, if not quantity, of gravity created by a mass.

3) The curvature of light, as seen in those experiments, fits into said theory. However, it could be explained by a number of theories. Just because one idea is more popular does not make it any more possible than another idea. Perhaps light is affected by gravity in a manner which we cannot observe. Although I accept current thoeries as being valid, there will always be a question at the back of my mind.

4) All is relative, especially terms such as 'normal' and 'everyday'. In the early stages of the universe, degenerate matter WAS 'normal everyday stuff', at least under current theory.

5) http://www.independencewar.com and http://www.particle-systems.com , the games are Independence War, I-War: Defiance, and the newer I-War: Edge of Chaos. They are nice people, they even replied when I emailed them about the possibilities of a P-Sys game for the Xbox. (no comment =b, but they gave it to me easy, and thanked me for my questions and ideas)

6) I thought the acceleration was an affect of gravitational attraction, but perhaps thats what you meant in so many words. The point is moot, gravity makes things move towards each other, how it does so is debatable.

7) The way in which you use the words determines the definition of the words in the sentence. Relativity, once again.

8) In order to let me study, as long as you admit point 2, I'll 'cut the crap'. Truce?
