Message Thread | This response ↓ The Warped Side of the Universe: Kip Thorne at Cardiff University - DFM July 12, 2020, 10:40 am Still Don't Understand Gravity? This Will Help. - DFM December 29, 2022, 3:18 pm I wish I was formally educated in General Relativity, then I could more thoroughly refute it - urnlfn November 17, 2022, 4:42 am WOW, do you misunderstand General Relativity TOTALLY. - DFM November 22, 2022, 4:30 pm I knew you would say that - urnlfn November 22, 2022, 5:41 pm Black Hole Information Paradox Is Explained In My Post Here - DFM November 23, 2022, 6:43 am I mean come on... - urnlfn November 22, 2022, 5:48 pm "Picture that in 3 dimensions. I can't." Easily, except that curvature is in FOUR dimensions. - DFM November 23, 2022, 6:52 am I don't have the background to make an argument sufficiently technical to pass peer review - urnlfn November 23, 2022, 2:23 pm Simple Proof Space Is Curved. - DFM November 28, 2022, 6:56 am The fact that we understand that light is following a curve implies that there is a straighter line - urnlfn November 28, 2022, 5:29 pm OK. DEFINE a straight line in REAL space-time. I dare you. - DFM December 3, 2022, 4:28 pm A straight line connects the centers of mass of two massive bodies - urnlfn December 3, 2022, 5:13 pm MANY POSSIBLE lines connect the centers of mass of two massive bodies. - DFM December 4, 2022, 6:15 am Only if you assume that space is malleable. i don't believe it is. - urnlfn December 9, 2022, 9:20 pm You can define neither curvature, not the character of a straight line. - DFM December 10, 2022, 3:31 pm Incomprehensible mathematical gobbledygook. - urnlfn December 10, 2022, 3:46 pm Comprehensible mathematical geometry. - DFM December 12, 2022, 8:20 pm I don't believe GR is the end of the story - urnlfn December 13, 2022, 3:22 pm On a Macroscopic scale, GR has passed every experimental test with flying colors. - DFM December 15, 2022, 6:12 am GR nevertheless has limited utility and is therefore not the ultimate theory - urnlfn December 15, 2022, 11:02 am In Science, There NO ultimate theory. - DFM December 16, 2022, 5:35 am Correct - urnlfn December 16, 2022, 10:04 am No. But GR cannot be replaced by a theory that FAILS to account for curvature of space, - DFM December 18, 2022, 10:14 am Reification fallacy - the map is not the territory - urnlfn December 18, 2022, 2:15 pm "The same predictions can be achieved by other mechanisms." - DFM December 19, 2022, 8:17 pm Not true. Astronomers distinguish between geometric and apparent locations of bodies - urnlfn December 19, 2022, 8:38 pm In Physics, it is IMPOSSIBLE to neglect speed of light delays and - DFM December 20, 2022, 5:27 am Depends what questions you are asking, and what answers you are looking for - urnlfn December 20, 2022, 10:40 am It is IMPOSSIBLE to assume that space is not curved and still have - DFM December 20, 2022, 2:17 pm Laws of motion work just fine without curved space - urnlfn December 21, 2022, 1:57 am No, they do NOT. Without curved space-time the essential - DFM December 21, 2022, 5:48 am If you don't get too close to a spheroidal mass, Newton's laws work great - urnlfn December 21, 2022, 8:30 am It is NOT Possible to explain without reference to curved space. - DFM December 21, 2022, 10:38 am Nonsense. Even Kepler's laws are sufficient. - urnlfn December 21, 2022, 1:59 pm Kepler's Laws are NOT sufficient if high accuracy is required. - DFM December 21, 2022, 6:04 pm GR is accurate and time tested, but there is something wrong with it - urnlfn December 22, 2022, 2:56 am "The only issue I have is formalizing it." Ay, there's the rub. - DFM December 24, 2022, 3:24 pm Nope. Doesn't work like that. - urnlfn December 24, 2022, 9:12 pm Alex Filippenko on Supernovae, Dark Energy, Aliens & the Expanding Universe - urnlfn November 19, 2022, 10:59 am Re: The Warped Side of the Universe: Kip Thorne at Cardiff University - Charles R August 27, 2022, 5:25 am « Back to index
