You say that electricity loses energy as it travels through a wire. That's no surprise, if it did not there would be no big deal with superconductors.

Does it also lose energy as it travels through vacuum? I would think that ,(barring the effects of other electromagnetic fields) it would not. It loses energy in the wire due to interactions with the fields associated with the matter in the wire.

To discount the ether absolutely is to assert that your knowledge is absolute and irrefutable.

Not long ago, learned and respected people made bold stements like; heavier than air flight is impossible; noone will ever travel faster than 60 miles per hour etc..
They soon were proven fools!

Remember Gorman91 the greatest barrier to learning is certain knowledge.

I feel that so called dark matter is an unneeded concept. I have an idea about quantized space that can explain dark energy , and dark matter.
I'll admit my idea is unfinished, and I do not have the mathematics to describe it. Nevertheless if I can see alternatives to DM/DE then I am sure others can too.... perhaps I am the millionth monkey, and my typewriter contains the truth....

May we all gain wisdom and peace!

Dark matter does exist. It is clear. This electronic universe movement has stonewalled when asked about the light that smears due to gravity that is not there. An entire galaxy of dark matter has been discovered. Sorry, you lose.

Your not too bright are you? Either that your your wholly uneducated as to what DARK MATTER is.

I assume your talking about this little gem:

www.universetoday.com...

A British-led team of astronomers have discovered an object that appears to be an invisible galaxy made almost entirely of dark matter – the first ever detected. A dark galaxy is an area in the universe containing a large amount of mass that rotates like a galaxy, but contains no stars. Without any stars to give light, it could only be found using radio telescopes. It was first seen with the University of Manchester's Lovell Telescope in Cheshire, and the sighting was confirmed with the Arecibo telescope in Puerto Rico. The unknown material that is thought to hold these galaxies together is known as 'dark matter', but scientists still know very little about what that is.

Well, right off the bat it says APPEARS. Further down it says detected by RADIO TELESCOPES. I don't mean to nitpick, but DARK MATTER can only interact gravitationally with baryonic matter. It is NOT detectable by radio telescopes at all.

The fact remains that an ether does not exist because sound waves do not permeate through space. To say anything about it not being observed places you in the same boat of that which you criticize. What different is your invisible ether to invisible dark matter?

The ether could be anything from a rarefied gas to the vacuum fluctuations. In either case, sound still would not permeate through space. I personally am banking on the rarefied gas myself as space is 99% plasma.

Ether does not exist. If it does no affect matter, than it is indifferent to dark matter, thus making you no different, just calling it a different name.

The two have entirely different phsycial aspects. Ether being detectable and falsifiable and dark matter being undetectable physically and thus unfalsifiable.

Here are the facts. Zero point energy is a lie. Pretty much the only means to get it would be a device which uses gravity and is in a vacuum. When a perfect vacuum occurs, odd affects DO occur, such as phantom molecules. But they cannot be used for energy. It is very possible that Tesla discovered a means of making waves so small that they affect the frequency of items smaller than mass. There is nothing against the possibility that he may have created antimatter by means of affecting the frequency of regular matter and simply changing its spin.

You don't know the difference between a fact and your own garbage uneducated opinions.

en.wikipedia.org...

Zero-point energy is the lowest possible energy that a quantum mechanical physical system may have and is the energy of the ground state.

What your probably talking about is vacuum energy. That being the case, I might agree that *we* might find it difficult to extract usable energy from it.

You can be the smartest man in the universe. That does not change a damn thing that in the early 1900s, you would not be able to observe anything smaller than an atom nor affect anything to an observable amount.

And yet people still defend Einstein and his nearly hundred year old model derived from what was known nearly a hundred years ago. Christ, even your defending an inaccurate model. If the model were correct then it would not have made such a gross miscalculation in mass to begin with. Nothing in science would be a surprise either, like the ...Oh, every single god damned quasar observed thus far showing no signs of time dilation or redshift/apparent brightness not following the way it should. If the model were correct, it would account for all of that.

Instead, you sit there like a damned hypocrite.

Tesla was epic wins for sure. But don't turn him into some God of the universe that could observe some make believe ether that he cold tap into.

You can thank Tesla for modern life. You can thank Einstein for .... Well, nothing really.

BTW, if he could observe it, it means that it can affect matter and photons, and therefore carry sound waves. You can't hear the sun, therefore don't make crap up.

Are you for real?

en.wikipedia.org...

In the late 19th century, "luminiferous aether" (or "ether"), meaning light-bearing aether, was the term used to describe a medium for the propagation of light.

Currently, there is no medium for electromagnetic waves (that includes radio waves, but we'll get to that in a sec.) to propagate through. Every wave known thus far to man requires a medium to 'wave' through. The Aether is postulated as the medium allowing electromagnetic waves to exist.
Not one Aether theory postulates that the Aether is a medium for sound. Don't be an uneducated buffoon.

Whilst I agree with you that many scientific theories will be shown to be false or incomplete, stating all Science is a lie is going way to far, and also shows little cognitive ability in recognizing the reasons as to why this is.

I'm not picking on you specifically, but much of what you have said has been previously said by others in the thread.

I doubt there are any scientists involved in a conspiracy to prevent true advancement, but there are many invested heavily in the current system, and their entire world view is formed by the current system.

I think many of the 'naysayers' have missed to main topic of discussion in the OP. He is clearly talking about the current standard science of cosmology. He simply made the erroneous usage of the phrase "all of science" when trying to make his point about current cosmology.

Anyone who has read anything Einstein had to say, would know he was not an absolutist in any sense you imply.

If anyone has followed the OP's threads, they would be well aware that the OP is well aware of this fact.

Lastly, I doubt we would be much further.

There are many technologies that would provide simple, clean energy and other advancements.

Many of the problems stem from a lack of data (my own field of interest is archeology and anthropology). You just can't be sure which finds are in situ, the carbon dates are relentlessly recalibrated etc. It is all guesswork at best, as many of the scientists are often ready to admit.

I agree, many scientists are ready to admit they are wrong, to a point. The OP is also well aware of this point as well. The problem is, not all scientists are ready to admit they are wrong in face of evidence that they are wrong, hence why we still hang on to Einsteins model despite numerous observational evidences that it is wholly inaccurate.

But in regards to Physics and Cosmology, I would wager that our little mammalian brains are insufficient to truly understand reality. We currently do not even understand the brain. Not really, not in detail. Even what sleep is for is hotly debated and not well understood. Hence I laugh and scoff at the idea of Strong AI. You can't build what you don't understand.

Yet through experimentation and observation we can garner a better understanding. Current cosmology is mostly resting upon assumptions of truth and invented constructs created to explain an observation that doesn't fit in the current model. The science of cosmology today is less science and more the writings of a great sci-fi novel.

And of course, the current paradigm is for a Universal Law, one that everything can be reduced to. But that too is just a human intellectual fancy, that the Universe is inherently "elegant", as though that were already an established law.

I personally doubt there is a GUT to be discovered. There is no reason to my knowledge that there should be.

People trying to make reality fit Dogma will sooner or later always lose. You just seem to represent a different dogma.

Well, it depends really. Are we talking about invented made-up dogma or are we talking about tried and true known physics? There is a remarkable distinct difference between the two.

Trolling... the one profession where the worse you are at the task, the more convincing the ruse becomes.

I can see that. My core temperature seems to stay around 45-50 degrees C. All looks well within specification.

Dark matter is the new Aether. But it patches holes in a obvious broken model because that models predictions does not get verified by observation in any real way minus more patches and theoretical objects spun out of whole cloth without a shred of real justification.

There is plenty of real justification, and the scientists are 100% aware that the current understanding is not satisfactory until a more precise and predictive physical theory emerges.

Right. There is none except a bunch of pointing at random phenoms and saying "See! This is caused by Dark Matter!!!". A substance I might add, which is by definition unobservable.

Correction: true, science of today may be a lie. But only in my book is Orthodox Science a big fat lie. Unorthodox science is something I trust because I can do it in my very own backyard with no one hovering over me and demanding me to do it by what some guys says that is right.

I appreciate your concern.
