I can’t get over this result. Oxygen!

y2skot.bsky.social•15 days ago

I feel tiny and I don’t mind. This is magnificent.

I know you'll reject this but the ancient Egyptians believed the sun creates matter, ejects it into space and that collects into planets that grow and eventually become stars. Jupiter seems to be developing its own solar system with planets we're calling moons. Will it ignore into a star?

whepowhepo.bsky.social•15 days ago

What is the process by which the sun creates matter?

billy302.bsky.social•15 days ago

We'll never know unless we "suppose" it does and go in search of the process. The reward can be astronomical. Man can duplicate many natural processes and even Improve on them.

whepowhepo.bsky.social•14 days ago

Your method of inquiry is very close to how we already do science. However, in order to “suppose” something, you need a leg to stand on, otherwise you open yourself up to the white noise of possibilities. Your supposition isn’t based on anything, therefore, it isn’t any more worth investigating.

billy302.bsky.social•14 days ago

Humm. So where is the line between white noise and coherent supposes. I wonder what you would have said had you been around when Columbus said "suppose earth is round and you can get east by sailing west and not only that it's a shorter route." The ancient Egyptians said the sun creates matter. Why?

whepowhepo.bsky.social•14 days ago

And you are correct. I would probably be deeply skeptical of Columbus if the only information to go off was his gut (which is what you make it sound like). The sun creating matter directly opposes hundreds of years of established science that is *predictive* and *descriptive* of the natural world.

whepowhepo.bsky.social•14 days ago

It’s a deeply philosophical question, but the buck stops with you. If you believe the Egyptians were correct in supposing the sun creates matter, try to prove it. However, you need to provide justifications besides, “some ancient people posited so” when you try to convince others of your views.

There's so much we don't know. I wonder how many theories have been rejected because of relativity. Did you notice there has been no scientific advancement since accepting relativity. There's no theory to explain how light is both a wave and also made of photons that are particles of matter.

mgaztanaga.bsky.social•15 days ago

Please allow me to disagree:
•There has been a huge advancement in science after relativity: quantum mechanics, subatomic particles, antimatter, dark matter and energy...
•Quantum physics perfectly describes the duality of waves and particles of photons.
•Photons are not made of matter.

NEWS: Last month, at the American Physical Society Global Summit, I presented unambiguous empirical evidence of superdeterminism.

See presentation: https://temptdestiny.com/pdf/MAR-L04-00-Morales.pdf

Let's suppose "the universe is super-deterministic" is proven. Now what?

If you can tell me how to emulate gravity with an electrically powered generator I can build a 70,000 ton space ship that holds all I will need to do a 10 year space journey flying at speeds the exceed the speed of light.

superdeterminism.bsky.social•4 hours ago

The Now what? - has been presented in the APS presentation and in the manuscript. See Manuscript: https://doi.org/10.3389/frma.2024.1404371

billy302.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Humm, as best I can determine given my limited research capabilities superdeterminism is philosophy. What are you looking for a mental process? Free will? Are you trying to bridge the free will gap between machine and man? Can you give me a definition of superdeterminism.

superdeterminism.bsky.social•4 hours ago

See the APS Global Physics Summit presentation. You'll find the definition of superdeterminism by Bell and the 2022 Nobel laureates: https://temptdestiny.com/pdf/MAR-L04-00-Morales.pdf

mgaztanaga.bsky.social•15 days ago

The problem with physics after Relativity is that it cannot be easily described without advanced maths. So a lot of people just ignore it. But all of it has been proved right and it's used in everyday's technology.

billy302.bsky.social•15 days ago

Space exploration is going nowhere before an electric powered FVG, Force Vector Generator is invented. An artificial gravity generator to power 70,000 ton space ships at multiples of the speed of light.

Anybody doing anything in investigating gravity besides trying prove Einsteins gravity waves?

mgaztanaga.bsky.social•14 days ago

Deep space exploration, involving artificial gravity and exceeding speed of light is currently too far away from our technology and theories. So they are not a priority for anyone right now. Science, like any other human effort, is conditioned by an effort/benefit balance.

billy302.bsky.social•15 days ago

Those advancements show up where in the engineering books?
You're not giving Einstein credit for what Ohm, Faraday, Maxwell, Amper, Newton, and a host of others did providing the foundation of electronic technology. I worked in technology for over 60 years and never once was Relativity cited.

mgaztanaga.bsky.social•14 days ago

Relativity is applied in GPS technology. For having accurate time measurements, you need to consider relativistic effects in satellites.
Quantum mechanics is applied in all advanced electronic devices.
