Posting #48 - "How the Aether Leads to Our Reality"

"Great spirits have always encountered violent oppositions from
mediocre minds." - A. Einstein
The previous posting showed ("A Basic Look at the Aether") that the classical Aether must exist because it endowed the volume of supposedly "empty" space with observable properties. If space were not filled with "something" it could not have any properties other than volume since "space" is an abstract mathematical concept, it is not "real". If, however, we add the concept of the Aether, the confusion associated with the Relativity concepts vanishes.
Starting with Newtonian physics, let us add the observationally proven concept that light propagates through space (i.e.- the Aether) at a velocity determined by the permeability and dielectric constant of space. Light, and all electromagnetic radiation, is a transverse wave and as such cannot propagate through a fluid. It was concluded Early on that the Aether must be a solid. If we examine the propagation of light though the cosmos we observe that there is no detectable chromatic dispersion. The lack of such dispersion shows that the Aether is either a continuous solid (like jello) or granular (like tapioca). To produce the observed lack of chromatic dispersion, the maximum possible size of granularity must be extremely small even compared to the Planck Length (10^35 meters). In addition, to produce the cosmologically observed gravitational and inertial effects, the Aether must be extremely ridged. Since matter can move freely though the Aether, matter cannot be a solid, but rather must be composed of standing waves, as some current theories have suggested. (If, for example, a quark or an electron consisted of a single cycle of electromagnetic radiation refracted into a circular path, a charged particle would be produced which could propagate through the solid Aether - http://einsteinhoax.com/posting44.htm. and be observed as matter.
A basic premise of the Relativity concepts is that the velocity of light is the same IN all velocity and elevation reference frames. This idea has falsely been interpreted to means that the velocity of light is the same BETWEEN all reference frames. Once one recognizes the difference, the mystery of Relativity vanishes and the subject is easily understood at the intuitive level. This basic premise of Relativity is incorrectly stated, it should read that matter controls its properties by measuring the LOCAL velocity of light and adjusting them so as to make the LOCALLY observed velocity of light as C. There is no requirement that the velocity of light be equal to C in other reference frames.
With this in mind, consider that the observer's reference frame is at absolute rest (an arbitrary but legitimate choice). In a reference frame which is moving with respect to the observer's frame, light has further to travel to make a round trip. In the direction parallel to the velocity vector, the travel distance is increased by 1/(1-V^2/C^2) and in the transverse direction by (1/(1-V^2/C^2)^0.5. In order for the velocity of light to be C, as observed in the moving reference frame, matter must contract in the direction of the velocity vector in proportion to (1-V^2/C^2)^0.5. and the duration of the ticks of a clock must become longer in proportion to (1/(1-V^2/C^2)^0.5. (This conclusion was provided by Fitzgerald and Larmor two years prior to the publication of Special Relativity.) This conclusion makes all of the effects associated with Special Relativity intuitively obvious if one is not too lazy to think them true (only algebra is required). It can be shown that when velocity is increased, additional energy is added to any energy in the matter. It is this storage of energy which we observe as kinetic energy. It is associated with the so-called "fictitious" force of inertia and results from a REAL push against the Aether.
There is, in addition, a relativistic effect associated with the proximity of energy. The proximity of energy causes the local permeability of space to be reduced. This reduction in permeability reduces the ABSOLUTE velocity of light and causes matter to contract. In this contraction, matter sheds energy by releasing the energy of fall and, after the fall contains a mass energy which, in absolute terms, has been reduced by that energy. The effect is to cause matter to "push" against the Aether with a force which is currently (and falsely) interpreted as the "fictitious" force of gravity.
All of the relativistic effects (velocity and gravity) can be defined by three sets of transformations (transformations for other terms are found by applying Dimensional Analysis to accepted physical laws).
Force = 1
Length = (1/(1-V^2/C^2)^0.5)/(1-$)
Time = ((1-V^2/C^2)^0.5)*(1-$)
Where $ is the gravitational potential between elevations as measured in terms of the upper elevation units of measurement. It was very satisfying to find that these transformations lead to predictions of the cosmologically observed universe.
