      From: fortunati.luigi@gmail.com              A contestation that I expected and that no one has made is this: if       General Relativity is wrong, why are its results more consistent with       observed phenomena than those of Newton's gravitation?              The answer is that the errors of RG are only conceptual, that is, they       only concern the presumed causes of gravity (space-time curvature       instead of forces) and not the excellent innovation that exposes       Newton's error.              For Newton, the mass M acts directly on the mass m (and this is wrong       but I will talk about it in the next specific discussion), while for       Einstein the mass M acts on the space around itself and the space       transmits this action (force) on the mass m (and this is correct).              I deliberately wrote space and not space-time.              Luigi Fortunati              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
