The open letter to professors, doctors and students of physics around the world.
*************************************************************************
I discovered something of fundamental importance. But not being a scientist, I don't have the possibility of publishing my findings in a scientific journal – I even wouldn't know how to go about it. However, I found another way to propagate my remarkable ideas. I sent the following OPEN letter, starting from 5 November 2015, to many professors, doctors and students of physics around the world. It would be nice if any of them replied to my letter, but it is not my main goal.
Madam/Sir
[First an auxiliary and introductory piece.] At the beginning of my letter, please imagine something easy: a glass full of water, and an ant which lives on the surface of this reservoir. The ant was swimming from one edge of the glass to this opposite one. How fast was the ant? To answer this question one has to measure the distance separating the edges of the glass, and the time it took the ant to overcome this distance. However, there is also another way to estimate ant's speed on the surface of water. Namely, swimming ant is creating a wave – the faster is the ant, the bigger is the wave. Now imagine a really huge glass full of water – let's assume for a moment that it is all that is. Imagine also that on the surface of this vast ocean there is, as the eye could see, only one ant and nothing more. Although there are no visible reference points on the surface of the ocean, a condor, which is just soaring above the ocean, can easily estimate how fast is the ant on the ocean's surface – to measure the wave's height is just enough, of course. So, in this aquatic universe the movement of the ants is ABSOLUTE. What's more, it doesn't matter whether the ants are moving at a constant speed, or accelerating. This is because the acceleration doesn't affect the size of the wave. [Now about what is really important.] Now please imagine a really huge four-dimensional "glass" – it's not that easy, isn't it? Just as the three-dimensional glass – easily imaginable for you – is filled with wet water, so similarly the four-dimensional "glass" – absolutely unimaginable for you – is filled with "wet" energy. This mysterious energy which is hidden from you in the depth of the fourth dimension I called the oceanus.
"Subsequent studies with large particle accelerators have now led us to understand that space is more like a piece of window glass than ideal Newtonian emptiness. It is filled with 'stuff' that is normally transparent but can be made visible by hitting it sufficiently hard to knock out a part. The modern concept of the vacuum of space, confirmed every day by experiment, is a relativistic ether." – Robert Betts Laughlin, Nobel Laureate in Physics. [But you may call it a relativistic ether.]
"In physical cosmology and astronomy, dark energy is an unknown form of energy which is hypothesized to permeate all of space, (...)" – Wikipedia. [Or just the dark energy, if you like.]
Just as in the three-dimensional aquatic universe – this auxiliary one – there is the two-dimensional dry surface, so similarly in the four-dimensional "aquatic" universe – seen through the eyes of my four-dimensional imagination – there is the three-dimensional "dry" space. Just as the ants moving in the two-dimensional dry surface distort the ocean in its third wet dimension, so similarly the rockets moving in the three-dimensional "dry" space distort the oceanus in its fourth "wet" dimension – which results in an increase of the rockets' mass, but not only. What's more, it doesn't matter whether the rockets fly a zigzag accelerating again and again, or they are in the rectilinear uniform motion. So in the "aquatic" universe the movement of the rockets, whichever it may be, is always ABSOLUTE. Therefore, in the "aquatic" universe an increase in mass is ABSOLUTE and time dilation also is ABSOLUTE. In my text which is posted on my websitewww.solomon.pl I described step by step how the "aquatic" universe is built and how it works. However, I'm like a condor soaring 10 km above the ocean, so my description of the oceanus – as seen from the height of the fourth dimension – is very sketchy and is devoid of detail.
"It is ironic that Einstein's most creative work, the general theory of relativity, should boil down to conceptualizing space as a medium when his original premise [in special relativity] was that no such medium existed." - Robert Betts Laughlin, Nobel Laureate in Physics.
Albert Einstein and all the eulogists of his especially "dry" theory of relativity are like ants that live on the two-dimensional dry surface of the ocean – below them is the whole depth of wet water (or medium, if you feel like it), but they don't have any idea about it. Now, at the end of my letter I'll ask a rhetorical question: are the "ants" able to understand "condor" at all?
Yours faithfully, Solomon Sarcoramphus Papa, email: kondorman@o2.pl
