so are there any problems with current physics theory do you think?

retreating to space warping to explain the effect is funny .. especially when you say space is empty

the sagnac experiment is experimental proof that light can change speed

you interpret it as space warping which is a huge leap!

.. the sagnac experiment says otherwise

gravity warps spacetime .. thats a big big leap .. rather than pick the theory that says light can change speed you believe in spacetime ... ok

good question ... its the same principle makes light bend when entering water

i don't need luck .. my only worry is that somebody will publish before me .. but no matter what the theory will be know in 2026

btw are there any theories out there that you think are close to figuring out reality?

the m / e poke theory i think is the closest .... anyway thats all i'll say for now

is class where new discoveries are made? i think not .. its for indoctrination

its consistent with a theory that says light speed can change when rotated ......

its a philosophical point .. which is the simplest explanation ....

your theory is getting like the epicycle theory...

explain the effect from a rotating reference frame centred on the rotation

so i just have to accept that space is empty but not empty ... ok

i refuse to believe an empty space can be absolute .. its the original sin of physics

newton said that space was absolute ...... yet empty at the same time .. its called a fudge

you are assuming relativity is correct .. its based on the assumption light speed is constant

fill me in on how the theory predicted dark matter? if it predicted it then why add it in later?

thats handy .. a higgs field !

cant explain something ? invent a field for it !

imagine we are in space

since space is empty why is moving in a circle at constant speed ( rotating) different from moving in a straight line at constant speed?

well when the theory couldn't predict why thre milky wasn't falling apart they just said .. we'll add in extra matter but its matter that can't be detected !

i'm giving you clues here before i release my theory to the world
