I have promised a reward of 1000 US dollars to anyone who will find a
serious mistake in falling space theory. Let's make it better. Now I offer
the same amount of money to anyone who can prove that space time or time
dilation is real.

Who is the arbiter?

Let's make it better.

By appointing someone to arbitrate and putting the money in a holding
account under the control of the arbitrator?

Bill

Now I offer
the same amount of money to anyone who can prove that space time or time
dilation is real.

"Gravity appears to be really strange, something inexplicable by theory.
This view has been stated at some time and appears to be well founded. When
an object falls in a gravity field, it seems to be in accelerating motion.
However, this is not so, the acceleration is only apparent. We who observe
it are ourselves in accelerating motion as we stand on the surface of the
Earth, and we experience the acceleration as the surface of the Earth
pushing us upwards. If we could see events from the "correct" perspective,
we would observe that freely falling objects move forwards at a constant
velocity. Gravity is not a force, but something else. But what is the
correct perspective? "

I am sitting in my chair unaccelerated, I can feel a force on my body.
Gravity is a force.
I claim the $1000, pay up NOW.

I don't anticipate any amount of money coming my way, though. You will,
for some reason, find fault in every attempt to prove to you that the
effect exists.

Can you prove that you're real?

Yes, there is a force acting on you, but not gravity.

C. - THE TIDAL FORCE
C1
But what is the tidal force? What causes it and how is it defined? Consider
the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon. The Earth orbits the Sun and the Moon
orbits the Earth. But the Earth should also orbit the Moon due to the effect
of the Moon's gravity. It is impossible to fully meet all of these demands.
The tidal force depicts the erroneous movements arising from the
contradictory demands. Precisely defined, the tidal force is a deviation
from free-fall motion. When we stand on the surface of the Earth, the tidal
force acts on us.

Any secondary school geometry student should be able to
claim the prize on pargraph A1 alone. You should have
hundreds from this news group. You should apply for a
job at the White House. They seem to favor the kind of
arrogance one shows in self annoi... ahhh appointment
as judge, jury and hangman.

C. - THE TIDAL FORCE
C1

*snort*

But what is the tidal force? What causes it and how is it defined? Consider
the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon. The Earth orbits the Sun and the Moon
orbits the Earth. But the Earth should also orbit the Moon due to the effect
of the Moon's gravity.

It does. In fact, both orbit the common center of mass of the pair. Do
you know where that center is?

Are you not aware that extrasolar planets have been deduced *precisely*
because of the orbit of the star around the common center of mass
shared by the planet?

It is impossible to fully meet all of these demands.

Sure it is. This is a false, erroneous statement. You are simply
unaware of how to satisfy those concurrent demands.

The tidal force depicts the erroneous movements arising from the
contradictory demands.

Imprecise claptrap with no predictive power whatsoever. Can you
*predict* the "erroneous movements" arising from the "contradictory
demands" that are "impossible to fully meet"? If you have a theory that
explains something, then it should be able to predict that occurence at
least as well as the preceding theory does.

Precisely defined, the tidal force is a deviation
from free-fall motion. When we stand on the surface of the Earth, the tidal
force acts on us.

And so, when I'm on the beach immediately between high and low tide,
I've got no force of gravity acting on me at all?
