Einstein's mathematical equations gave us understanding of the whole universe. Aether has already been proven to be false and was left behind over a century ago

SO, overlay THE EYE in BALANCED RELATION to/WITH what is the Earth ! (The BLUE SKY is ALSO translucent !) GREAT. Objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. NOW, we proceed to the next step. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. Invisible AND VISIBLE SPACE in fundamental equilibrium and BALANCE IS the MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE in fundamental RELATION to the universal fact that E=mc2 is F=ma. The Earth (A PLANET) involves BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS E=MC2 IS F=MA. The Earth AND the Sun are CLEARLY E=mc2 AND F=ma IN BALANCE pursuant to what is the BALANCED MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE !!! Consider what is the speed of light (c), AND consider WHAT IS THE SUN. NOW, think about what is the Earth. Importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black ! Great. Accordingly, the Earth is in BALANCE with what is the Sun, AS the orange Sun represents what is LAVA ON BALANCE !!! Great. (Notice the role and relation of what is the EYElid.) The MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE is universally balanced to/with what is THE SUN AND the speed of light (c), AS E=MC2 IS F=MA !!! Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Notice the black space of WHAT IS THE EYE, as the stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky IN BALANCED RELATION to/WITH what is the MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE; AS E=MC2 IS F=MA !!! The FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE is truly linked AND BALANCED to/with what is THE MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma IN BALANCE !!!; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity !!!!!! GREAT !!!! Notice that the viscosity of lava IS BETWEEN that of WATER AND the Earth/ground ! The orange Sun is the same size as THE EYE. Outstanding. E=mc2 IS F=ma as what is the BALANCED MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE !!!! GREAT !!! LOOK at the progression AND THE BALANCE regarding FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE, MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE !!!, AND A POINT (ALSO c) !!! E=mc2 IS F=ma !!!, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity ON BALANCE !!! GREAT !!! It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. E=mc2 is F=ma. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity !!! Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy ON BALANCE !!! TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE, AS E=mc2 is F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. INDEED, TIME DILATION ultimately proves ON BALANCE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma !!!! INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience, AS E=MC2 IS F=MA ON BALANCE !!!; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY !!! GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=mc2 IS F=MA; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Accordingly, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution !!! Notice what is the fully illuminated (AND setting) Moon in DIRECT comparison with what is the orange Sun !!! Again, the stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. A given PLANET (including WHAT IS THE EARTH) sweeps out EQUAL AREAS in equal times consistent WITH/AS F=ma, E=mc2, AND what is perpetual motion, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; AS E=MC2 IS F=MA ON BALANCE !!!!!! GREAT. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma !!! By Frank DiMeglio

Am I the only religious man who loves science but now gets annoyed everytime there is a new discovery or invention atheists have to start screaming about how religion is stupid or that god isn't real or about how such thing was not written in the bible, quran, etc. Atheists have to understand that these are not science books you can't compare the two. Religions, atleast all the major ones, were never against science and all the instances in which that happened was because it went against the wishes of men who were already misusing religion to gain wealth or power. I love science. I love it very much,because, according to my beliefs, it is gods greatest gift to humanity which can be used to help people and lets and understand and enjoy this great universe. I'm even studying to become a doctor to use it to help people. All I'm saying is that people need to chill, everybody watching this vid is here to enjoy this new discovery so, weather you are religious or not, let other's enjoy this and stop spreading the hate.
@thenewyorklife206
@thenewyorklife206 8 років тому
+noder mark That's a fine message you've written there, but first and foremost, religion has historically had MAJOR problems with science and suggesting otherwise is pretty much a non starter. Then attempting to chalk religions issues with science up to the leaders of the religion is somewhat pointless as well - as they speak on behalf of your god. They are who all the religious folks look to for leadership from the word of their god. So you can't really whitewash that aspect either. If you want to believe in a god and science at the same time I'll say fill your boots, but science and everything we've discovered about our universe does not gel with anything in any of the major religious books. they provided all the answers and left no room in them for discovery such as this.

+noder mark humans are emotional creatures. everybody has emotions and so everybody once in a while needs a scapegoat for letting their steam out. for many of the religious crowd it's the atheists. For many of the atheists no matter how unaffected by emotion they claim to be, the steam stills comes out and the scapegoat is the religious crowd. I try to remain positive in general so I see in this back and forth phenomenon as strengthening the fact that we humans, the most emotional creatures are functioning properly.

why do mass bend spacetime downward? Why not up? What causes the bending, gravity?
@hajorm.a3474
@hajorm.a3474 8 років тому
this is used to simplify the image of gravity...in reality it's more like bending the whole 4D fabric of space "Inwards".
@makzmakz
@makzmakz 8 років тому
Still, bending something in order to produce a force requires a field of some sort? I.e. if gravitation causes the bending of spacetime, what is the field that is dragging the attracted masses "down" or "inward"? If I release a ball on the top of a hill and there is no gravity present, it will just sit there. I mean you can't have gravity to explain gravity?
@hajorm.a3474
@hajorm.a3474 8 років тому
+makzmakz without gravity, the ball and the hill wouldn't even be formed in the first place, but we can take an extreme case that, what if there is no planets and starts and a universe with just a ball, this ball will have it's own gravitational field and bend the whole universe.

@RJBenish
@RJBenish 5 років тому
Excellent question. I think you've hit on the "thinking error" that as yet afflicts the G-wave establishment. What makes the LIGO enterprise so suspicious is that they sometimes say, yes, the light wave gets stretched, too. But they never provide a coherent PICTURE of what they say happens. Hand-waving. Not gravitational waves.That's all they've got.
@albertsharipov627
@albertsharipov627 5 років тому
It's because the gravitational wave moves relative to the light very slow. The light that gets strechted doesn't make the measurement, but the light, that follows the stretched light into the stretched space now has to travel a longer path. It's that light, that gets measured.
@iceseic

+Rayan Hamdan Because it's a totally new medium for astrophysicists to study things. They have basically only used light up until now, and now there is a totally new approach. It's like if you were studying a distant island you couldn't reach by boat and then you suddenly devised a way to measure the way the water breaks around the island by the waves that reach you on shore. Or it's like if you were deaf and had to rely largely on sight for things you couldn't touch, and then suddenly you can hear: you get a lot of new information about what you've been looking at. If you mean what it can be applied to, I think it's particularly useful for heavy dense things like black holes and neutron stars which are still pretty mysterious things in our universe. It would help, I imagine, people learn about other cosmological questions too regarding the nature of gravity and maybe help prove/disprove certain Grand Unified Theories.

@tats5229 8 років тому
+Rayan Hamdan you are in a football stadium with all the floodlights on, and want to know who or what is standing at the other end. You whip out your binoculars (or Hubble Telescope) and are able to see the other end. Now suppose, someone turns off the floodlights, and the entire stadium turns dark. What good is your telescope then? This is where Gravitational Wave detection comes in handy. GWs are emitted by just about every celestial body, and remain virtually undisturbed while travelling through space (i.e. no disturbance from obstructions.). Thus, if we have enough sophisticated instrument to detect these tiny ripples, we can detect any celestial body, very much farther than our present sphere of sight, irrespective of its luminescence. PS: I'm no physicist, so any criticism or correction will be most welcome.. :)

Crazy Duck GWs do not interact with matter, which is why it can travel through other bodies without getting disturbed. As for getting disturbed by other GWs, I think you are right and my previous suggestion that GWs can be used to detect any celestial body is wrong. We'll only be able to detect and study large celestial bodies like Black Holes, Supernovae etc. moving at considerable fraction of speed of light (hence, ruling out planets etc.) These strong GWs however will not be disturbed from the smaller GWs. They will give us an advantage because we can't actually "see" Black holes, or dark matter, and GWs from them can provide us data to understand them more...

Probably no simple answer to this question but - when you say the distance, however minuscule, changes.. whether it's compressed or extended.. what is extending/compressing? are you saying that the molecules/atoms that make everything up actually move apart / come together when one of these waves pass by?

There is so much about the universe that we don't know and there will be much we would not be able to know ever. The video proves how limited human mind is to understand the vagaries of this utterly complex universe. The fact that we are in awe with the detection of anything new, shows how little we know about the universe as yet and how much more we are to discover in future. This is why we should be humble enough to accept our limits and be skeptical of even the science, not just religion(which is obviously for the sheeples) and spirituality. To know that you don't know is the best thing you could know.

Are gravitational waves their own thing that travel through space? Or are they more like pertuberances on whatever the universe is made of linked only indirectly to it's source? Like the ripples that might radiate out of where a rock hit the surface of water in a pond.

Congrats to the LIGO's team, and thank you for this nice video, very usefull :) And by the way, Bruce Allen from the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics in Hannover said, when he first saw the recording, he said "Oh! It's an injection, obviously!" haha!

I have one question what effect of gravitation wave in universe planet and living things
@shubhashish5788
@shubhashish5788 5 років тому
I have a question , Imagine a large stable body present nearby 2 colliding black holes , the gravitational wave present near the BHs will be very high before the collision, and it will cause the body to suffer space distortion causing it's distance from the BH to decrease and increase with a frequency . Keeping in mind the large masses also do distrot thr own space time fabric massively . Can we say that due to the gravitational wave of a high strength , it will react with this body's own distortion and at the moment the distance decrease it will pull it with such a high force that everything near by will ultimately collapse into the BH even before the two have collided ,and effectively increasing the collision speed of BHs .

So the everything in the universe is aligned in a sheet of gravitational wave. what if an object is below the sheet, will there be another wave down there too and about an object above and so on

What about if we are talking about planets on a different level than the source of the waves, how does it work if they are at different levels?

It’s fascinating that Albert Einstein predicted gravitational waves in 1918 and it took almost a century, 2016, to prove him right.

Are gravitational waves related to aether? Or are these waves a reason to the specific direction of aether flow?
