Rest assured you relativity denier that the general theory is settled science. :) :)
"according to Einstein's theory, the difference is negligible" Negligible? Heck I got audited by the IRS for payroll difference of $1.47 between State and Federal on a 6 figure payroll. That should have been negligible too.
Quite often when measurements and theory do not match
the issue is the quality, accuracy and methodology of
the instrumentation and how they are used that are the
issue. This will need to be looked at long and hard.
It wasn’t all that long ago that the announcement that
a particle actually might be moving FTL....it was then
announced that NO....we effed up on the instrumentation.
Time will tell.
Friend of mine when I lived in NM was a Senior Research Physicist at John's Hopkins before I met him. He told me in the 1980's the laws of physics do not tie. He said there would be a rethinking of the assumptions because they could not account for the mass to energy theory. But I am not impressed at the "discoveries" of the "European Space Agency" and their measurements. This sounds like a "popular science" article.
Einstein tried to describe gravity as a kind of a four dimensional differential geometry thing. There is no way to start with that and believe that gravity ever could have changed three or four to one near the surface of our own planet but it’s an easy demonstration that it has. The largest dinosaurs would be crushed by their own weight in our present gravity.
Interesting that they spun the superconductor at 6500rpm.
This is well within the operating range of many car engines.
I would have expected the rotation to have had to been much faster...
Maybe they were measuring wind from the moving object, or something.
NO. NO. NO. That's not how science is done nowadays. You first have a Hypothesis, then build a computer model then gather the data to test the model and if the data doesn't agree with the Hypothesis you " lose" the data and then call people Deniers who think your hypothesis is nuts.
Speaking of Bush, remember the Dems claim that under Bush, we were losing 750,000 jobs per month.
But now the Dems claim that being out-of-work is a good thing - lets one write poetry, or start a business, ...
So was that 750,000 lost jobs under Bush now a good thing?
Inquiring minds want to know?
Interesting. I am now reading a book about quantum physics which points out fundamental disagreements between Einstein and Niels Bohr regarding quantum theory.
So...If I stand on a bathroom scale while forced to listen to scumbag, I should gain some weight??
I hate to elevate the discourse this way but at last an explanation for why the shower curtain attacks.
I like these quotes from Thomas Huxley:
Science is organized common sense where many a beautiful theory was killed by an ugly fact”....and...”The ultimate court of appeal is observation and experiment, not authority.” ~ Thomas H. Huxley
Interest.it fits a theory ive had for sometime..let me get back to you...but it may involve strings
Great. Now can the BS and build me a star drive!
Unless the internet is lying to me, and why would it, this is exactly what the NAZIs used in their spaceships to build their moonbase.
Let's just call it rounding error and move on.
The more Obama talks, the faster my head spins, causing me to want to lay down, so this must be a real thing they have discovered.
Einstein’s Theory of Relativity still stands.
Basically it says: “Everyone had relatives”. (Otherwise you wouldn’t be here).
So Einstein was right. They even opened a Bagel store named after him. One of the greatest honors the food establishment can bestow on someone.
First: the article is wrong. The magnetic analogue of the gravitational field is not a prediction of general relativity. It is a consequence of the Lorentz invariance of physics, and was predicted by Heaviside in 1892, 14 years before the special theory of relativity, and 24 years before the general theory of relativity, using an analogy with Maxwell's equations (which were already Lorentz invariant) but no one [then] knew why.
Second: If the effect was genuinely a manifestation of a magnetic analogue of gravity (which does indeed exist) if it existed at the strength quoted, an enormous laboratory [called "the universe" -- you may have heard of it] would be able to duplicate the results in stars, galaxies, and clusters. It doesn't. That's why there has been no follow up to this blunderously awesome "experiment" in eight years, but don't worry; some LENR researcher will no doubt be selling an "Einstein Was Wrong Relativity Generator®" any day now, for just $1 million per unit.
