Default Measuring Our Absolute Velocity

Measuring Our Absolute Velocity

In the 19th century, science had concluded that reality was based upon the
Aether, a rigid medium that pervaded all of space. The Aether was required to
account for the ability of forces (electric, magnetic, gravitational, etc.) to
"act at distance" and through which the vibrational disturbance known as light
could propagate. Late in the century, the next obvious step was taken. Attempts
were made to measure our velocity through the Aether. The most notable of those
attempts was the Michaelson-Morley experiment that, to everyone's chagrin,
produced a null result.

The difficulty was first resolved in 1903 with conclusions by Fitzgerald
and Larmor. Fitzgerald concluded that what was happening was that lengths
became shorter in the direction of the velocity vector and Larmor concluded
that, if this were true, clocks must slow by a reciprocal amount. The result
was the Lorentz Transformation Aether Theory, which, in conjunction with the
fact that the velocity of light represented the most rapid means of
transferring information, insured that our absolute velocity through space
could not be measured. In 1905, Dr. Einstein showed that the theory could be
derived from fundamental principles and Special Relativity was off and running.
When examined objectively, both theories are found to be identical
(cross-derivable), and differ only in philosophical viewpoint.

One viewpoint asserted that the classical Aether exists but because of the
Lorentz Transformations and the limit on the transfer of information imposed by
the velocity of light, we could not, in principle, measure our velocity with
respect to it. The other viewpoint asserted that, because our velocity with
respect to the Aether could not be measured, it was not valid to include the
Aether in physical theory. This interpretation required that all velocity
reference frames were equally valid and reality did not consist of space and
time as separate entities but was a single entity that was named space-time.

The mathematics of space-time work as long as one does not make the common
abuse of arbitrarily jumping from one velocity reference to another in the same
problem without compensation for the effects, but science was still left with
the problem of explaining "action at a distance". This difficulty was overcome
by the addition of the concept of "virtual exchange particles" (photons,
gluons, gravitons, etc.) whose existence was of such short duration that the
laws of quantum mechanics allowed them to "pop into and out of existence"
without violating the Law of Conservation of Energy and which acted to exchange
momentum (force) between physically separated entities.

The elimination of the Aether from realm of acceptable physical theory did
not result from observations or the application of rigorous logic. It was
eliminated instead by a consensus opinion upon the part of the scientific
community. Since the Lorentz Contraction-Aether Theory is a special case
solution of the Special Theory of Relativity, the existence of the classical
Aether cannot be disproved without also disproving Special Relativity. The
existence of the Aether can be verified, however, if information can be
transferred between physically separated locations at a velocity that exceeds
the velocity of light! If that can be accomplished, all that is necessary to
determine our "absolute velocity" through space is to compare the
synchronization of clocks set by the hyperluminal information transfer method
with the synchronization of clocks set by electromagnetic means. The difference
in their "now" readings would allow their "absolute velocity" to be measured
and the establishment of our absolute velocity through space (i.e.- the Aether)
by direct observation, exactly as Michaelson and Morley wished to do.

In the 1980's experiments were performed which showed that the quantum
coupling of the polarization of "paired photons" could be observed as
propagating at a velocity at least 4 times the velocity of light (and probably
at an infinite velocity of one is to accept a current interpretation of quantum
theory). It must be recognized that, since changing the polarization of a
photon does not change its energy, transferring information through the
polarization coupling of photons represents a transfer of information without
the transfer of energy. Since the transfer of energy is not involved, there is
no theoretical restriction currently known on the velocity of that transfer.
The paired photons travel at the velocity of light, but their polarization can
travel at any velocity (including infinite). The limitation on the velocity of
energy encoded information transfer results from the fact that the Lorentz
Transformation for Energy is 1/(1-V^2/C^2)^0.5 becomes infinite at the velocity
of light. This limitation clearly does not apply to quantum numbers such as the
polarization direction of photons.

The diagram of the experimental setup is shown in
http://www.members.aol.com/einsteinhoax/cf51.gif . This experiment can readily
modified by changing its instrumentation so as to allow the absolute velocity
of the setup to be measured directly without affecting the validity of its
operation. See http://www.members.aol.com/einsteinhoax/cf52.gif . It does not
seem unreasonable, if a sufficient number of paired photons are observed, for
the errors in observation to be reduced to the point where our absolute
velocity through spaced could be measured to an accuracy of better than +/-400
miles per second. (A recent report described a similar effect observed over a
distance of over 70 miles and should allow a much more accurate determination.)
THE SUCCESS OF SUCH A MEASUREMENT OF "ABSOLUTE VELOCITY" DOES NOT DEPEND UPON
PHYSICS SINCE THE NECESSARY RESULTS OF PHYSICAL EXPERIMENTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN
DEMONSTRATED, IT ACCOMPLISHMENT IS NOW A ROUTINE ENGINEEERING PROBLEM WHICH IS
EASILY SOLUABLE. The demonstration of an "absolute velocity" would, however,
throw the currently accepted idea of space-time into a cocked hat (where it
undoubtedly belongs since it is based upon a consensus opinion and not provable
fact) and return science to the idea of the classical Aether. (The text
associated with these diagrams can be accessed in Chapter 5 of
http://www.members.aol.com/einsteinhoax/text.htm .

Remember that Dr. Einstein warned, "We have not proven that the Aether
doesn't exist, we have merely proven we do not need it (for calculations). Also
remember that it took 25 years of peer pressure to cause Dr. Einstein to
relinquish the idea of "absolute time" (equivalent to believing the Aether) and
accepting the unproven consensus viewpoint of space-time as a single entity.

Hey, stooopid Ernest Wittke - Do you want EVIDENCE? Each of the 24

rubidum atomic clocks in orbit, with full relativistic corrections
being applied.
