I Agree. Here is why: The Bożeon. The Paper Titled "The Principles of Nature: Bożeon Flows, Density Gradients, and Orientation" will begin to make Everything Right to be published in the next year or two (sad face). Pending inclusion of experimental works of about ~20 other Physicists who have proved on their own through various papers that Bożeon Flows explain all aspects of Nature. They use PC words like "quantum superfluid" and "Dark Energy" but they are Bożeon Flows. The "The Principles of Nature: Bożeon Flows, Density Gradients, and Orientation" is the result of decades of "thought experiments" about the Nature of Everything. Essentially the goal was to explain All of Nature starting with a basic TENET (Nolan Rocks) and Rebuild the Laws of Nature starting with "First Principles" (Musk Rocks) to explain what we know as the Laws of Physics. In the end, Our Understanding of Nature Changes Everything! I will give you a glimpse into some of the basic tenets and the current conclusion. Proof and Rationale for the Conclusion will have to wait! QUESTION: What is the Fabric of the Universe and how does it explain the Principles of Nature? FINAL ANSWER: There is only one "field" (more like surface-less ocean) and only one "God Particle" (The Bożeon) ("God Particle" in Polish after the Polish-American Physicist who proposed the Bożeon) that flow within the "ocean" or "field", your choice. All other known "fields" and particles are made up of flows of Bożeons within this “Ocean”. You are made of it (Matter), and you are floating in it (Absolute Vacuum Space filled with Bożeons). BASIC TENETS: [1] ALL FORCES ARE LOCAL (all forces are caused by local collisions). [2] SPACE IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend space, you can only bend things within a space). [3] TIME IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend time, you can only bend things within a time). [4] YOU CANNOT BEND OR WARP SPACE OR TIME UNLESS YOU ARE "DR. STRANGE" OR "DR. WHO". [0] THERE ARE MORE, BUT THAT'S ENOUGH FOR NOW, DON'T YOU THINK! Obviously this means "RELATIVITY IS BUNK", but that proof, although well known now, will not be public till the paper is released. So Bożeons, what are they? Space is a complete empty vacuum filled with Bożeons. A Small Particle whose shape is unknown but speculated to be one of a suggested class of elongated tetrahedrons on the order of the Planck Length wide size wise. The Bożeon's geometric shape similar to the Helium-4 nucleus (but elongated and off center moment of inertia to explain "electric field polarization" - Bożeon Orientation). "Magnetic fields" are simply Bożeon Flows. Flows out of North into South on a Magnet. Photons are Bożeon flows that follow the Bose-Einstein Photon Momentum Wave Equation. One Central forward flowing vortex of Bożeon Flow and 4 Vortex Back Flows of Bożeons. And several smaller outer Flows. A Photon is λ Thick and 2 λ Wide. The internal structure of a Photon is made up of Bożeon Flows that satisfy both the Bose-Einstein Momentum Wave Function AND the Boson Wave Function. The volume of the Photon is directly proportional to it's wavelength. Yes Photons have a specific volume (im lookin at the Photon Volume function now folks). Photons ARE NOT singularities that experience no space or time! Period! Singularities Violate the BASIC TENETS OF NATURE! Electrons are similar to Photons in that they are Bożeon Flows but the summed momentum of all Bożeon flows do not allow it to travel at the speed of light. My favorite part about Bożeon Flows is it exactly explains gravity without magic. It explains Vacuum Energy (Zero Energy) is just Bożeons in a space with a density gradient toward the source, usually matter, which is also made of Bożeons. Coalescence. The collisions of the Bożeon Flow in Matter with the Polarized Bożeon Gradient in the "Vacuum" causes a net force in the direction of greater Bożeon density. THIS IS GRAVITY! A local collision of Bożeons in Free Space transferring momentum to other Bożeons in the Matter causing a net force and acceleration toward the greater Bożeon density. (Bożeon Collisions Are 100% elastic, no losses, conservation of energy). "Gravity" should be called "Coalescence" from now on! There are about ~20 physicists I have found that have the mathematical pieces of the puzzle ... and I plan to publish the paper in the next 2 years proving that ~~billions of Bożeons make up Photons and Electrons and All Particles and they Fill The Vacuum of Space (you guys call it Dark Energy). By end of next year not only will we show how Photon Bożeon Flows keep a Photon in motion but also why all the classical experiments like the single and double slit experiment are explained. Diffraction is caused by the momentum in the Particles Bożeon Flows being altered by the Bożeons in the side of the slit wall Matter as it impacts it. The change in the momentum of the Bożeon Flow within the Photon causes the change in direction and perfectly explains (math) the diffraction pattern to a 'T'. Einstein's Photon Clock Is a Lie. No one has ever explained a Photon Clock Correctly. Soon You Will See How Photon Clocks Actually Work (or Don't). No Warped Space Time. (Sorry Matt O'Dowd)(Matt O'Dowd Rocks Most), U 2 Joe!

Even though those books contained information about alchemy and magic that doesn't make much sense to people today they where the start of what became science. The people that wroth those books where the great thinkers of their day, many of their ideas where revolutionary. There is a clear progression from what we associate with magic to modern science and we should show more respect for every step of the way to where we are today.

@@EnglishMike still, just as light does indeed have a medium (the EM spectrum) and there is indeed something of space that planets sit in (the fabric of spacetime and the deformations caused by gravity), it's not exactly like the proponents of aether theory were pursuing completely nonsensical things either. They saw light acting like a wave, they saw that gravity propagated somehow. They made a mistake in thinking the two were inherently one and the same medium, but they were observing the effects to quite a high degree of precision for the day. Nevertheless, it is also incorrect to say "well the aether does actually exist, it's called the EM spectrum". They're similar but distinct things. If we discover the true cause behind the phenomena we've observed and currently attribute to dark energy, dark matter, then people will probably look back on today's physics with similar bemusement. "Oh, they were so close, but still so far", and so forth. In fact, your comment is almost a tautology. We wouldn't have any theories in the realm of dark matter if we hadn't observed _something_ after all. So saying "we've observed it, we just don't know the underlying cause" is kind of silly. If we didn't observe any such effects, we would have no use for such theories in the first place. They would just be fantasy along the lines of gods or spirits intervening in our fates - and even those were based on observed phenomena. Why is the ocean so rough today? Maybe we've angered Poseidon. Whereas nowadays we have much more in-depth understanding of ocean currents, fluid dynamics, heat exchange, and so on that power the gulf stream and wider worldwide ocean currents, we understand the effects the moon has on tides, weather patterns like El Niño, and so on. So of course we've observed their effects and are trying to explain them. But the underlying causes may be more numerous or complex, than the names we've currently attributed. They may end up being complications of already-understood forces that require us to rewrite our understanding of them, just as we had to rewrite gravity from a force to a bending of spacetime. That's what's so exciting, any answers we find will inevitably spur on more questions.

All other known "fields" and particles are made up of flows of Bożeons within this “Ocean”. You are made of it (Matter), and you are floating in it (Absolute Vacuum Space filled with Bożeons). BASIC TENETS: [1] ALL FORCES ARE LOCAL (all forces are caused by local collisions). [2] SPACE IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend space, you can only bend things within a space). [3] TIME IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend time, you can only bend things within a time). [4] YOU CANNOT BEND OR WARP SPACE OR TIME UNLESS YOU ARE "DR. STRANGE" OR "DR. WHO". [0] THERE ARE MORE, BUT THAT'S ENOUGH FOR NOW, DON'T YOU THINK! Obviously this means "RELATIVITY IS BUNK", but that proof, although well known now, will not be public till the paper is released. So Bożeons, what are they? Space is a complete empty vacuum filled with Bożeons. A Small Particle whose shape is unknown but speculated to be one of a suggested class of elongated tetrahedrons on the order of the Planck Length wide size wise. The Bożeon's geometric shape similar to the Helium-4 nucleus (but elongated and off center moment of inertia to explain "electric field polarization" - Bożeon Orientation). "Magnetic fields" are simply Bożeon Flows. Flows out of North into South on a Magnet. Photons are Bożeon flows that follow the Bose-Einstein Photon Momentum Wave Equation. One Central forward flowing vortex of Bożeon Flow and 4 Vortex Back Flows of Bożeons. And several smaller outer Flows. A Photon is λ Thick and 2 λ Wide. The internal structure of a Photon is made up of Bożeon Flows that satisfy both the Bose-Einstein Momentum Wave Function AND the Boson Wave Function. The volume of the Photon is directly proportional to it's wavelength. Yes Photons have a specific volume (im lookin at the Photon Volume function now folks). Photons ARE NOT singularities that experience no space or time! Period! Singularities Violate the BASIC TENETS OF NATURE! Electrons are similar to Photons in that they are Bożeon Flows but the summed momentum of all Bożeon flows do not allow it to travel at the speed of light. My favorite part about Bożeon Flows is it exactly explains gravity without magic. It explains Vacuum Energy (Zero Energy) is just Bożeons in a space with a density gradient toward the source, usually matter, which is also made of Bożeons. Coalescence. The collisions of the Bożeon Flow in Matter with the Polarized Bożeon Gradient in the "Vacuum" causes a net force in the direction of greater Bożeon density. THIS IS GRAVITY! A local collision of Bożeons in Free Space transferring momentum to other Bożeons in the Matter causing a net force and acceleration toward the greater Bożeon density. (Bożeon Collisions Are 100% elastic, no losses, conservation of energy). "Gravity" should be called "Coalescence" from now on! There are about ~20 physicists I have found that have the mathematical pieces of the puzzle ... and I plan to publish the paper in the next 2 years proving that ~~billions of Bożeons make up Photons and Electrons and All Particles and they Fill The Vacuum of Space (you guys call it Dark Energy). By end of next year not only will we show how Photon Bożeon Flows keep a Photon in motion but also why all the classical experiments like the single and double slit experiment are explained. Diffraction is caused by the momentum in the Particles Bożeon Flows being altered by the Bożeons in the side of the slit wall Matter as it impacts it. The change in the momentum of the Bożeon Flow within the Photon causes the change in direction and perfectly explains (math) the diffraction pattern to a 'T'. Einstein's Photon Clock Is a Lie. No one has ever explained a Photon Clock Correctly. Soon You Will See How Photon Clocks Actually Work (or Don't). No Warped Space Time. (Sorry Matt O'Dowd)(Matt O'Dowd Rocks Most), U 2 Joe!

​@@stefanalexanderlungu1503 Didn't know who Gene was till 2 minutes ago! 2nd best slam so far! It does fit doesn't it. A year ago I was a little cryptic I guess?! To make a long story short the EM "field" is just as Tesla envisioned but he didn't have Bose Einstein Gas/Condensate Theory to support him! Today we do! The EM "field" is a quantum level "gas" of EM dipoles, actual particles, they are not imaginary! The "God Particle"?!?!,,, sure if it makes the press happy! This particle looks like a drop with one end more massive than the other. They have a mass of about 10^(-93) kg each and length of the planck length and the half that for the width. During collsions these particles get propelled in the direction of the massive end (North / Positve). The tail is South / Negative at it exierts less vacuum pressure on its surroundings. This is polarity! There are about 10^(72) EM Kinetic Dipoles or Bożeons per cubic meter of vacuum on Earths surface. A "Bożeon" means - "God Particle" in Polish after the surname of the conceiver, my father!). My father actually helped launch the first and last Men to the Moon from inside the Firing Room and he knew Wernher von Braun and Alan Shepard. He was the IBM DDAS Telemetry Network Launch Controller in the Firing Room for Apollo 10, 11, 12, 16, 17, and Skylab 2, 3,and 4. He later helped build Space Shuttle Fight Computers with the father of NASA / Space X Astronaut Doug Hurley at IBM Owego NY. More on Dad at @ProjectApolloFilm . Dad can be seen in the film "Apollo 11" for 1 second in the Firing Room! They (NASA) knew Gravity was an electromagnetic thing. They knew the EM "field" and gravity were "coupled". In fact they are the exact same thing! There is only one field! Period. The EM Field. All other fields are derivative and that will be coming out this year in both text and video formats! FYI... The UAPs use EM Field Gas Compression tech (Anti Gravity Drives) built at Skunkworks using the Ning Li Design but with nano superconductors in liquid suspension to condense the EM "gas" around the vessel and then it use the differences in vacuum pressure to propel the craft at 50g's! If u look at the video against the clouds you can see the wavelength of the ~1 meter or 1/2 meter field lines operating at the natural frequency of the EM field, about 75 Mhz Hz. You can also see gravitational lensing about the fringes! NASA / SDI funded in the 90's they had success 1999 then it converted to a Black Project, under AC Gravity, LLC. Ning Li! 25 plus years ago! Anyway, These EM Kinetic Dipoles have mass. They have volume, and Inertia. They carry all momentum in the universe. There are about 10^(72) dipoles per cubic meter on Earths surface with a combined mass of about 10x(-21) kg/m^3 of vacuum. The solar system has average of 10^(-18) kg of EM Kinetic Dipoles per cubic meter of vacuum. This is dark matter and energy! The EM "field" is technically a Bose Gas of Bożeons and when compressed a Bose Einstein Condensate forms called Quantum Superfluid that flows within all elementary particles. An electron has about 10^(62) EM Kinetic Dipoles liquified and flowing in the quantum superfluid inside the electron. Same goes for the Photon. A "green" Photon has a quantum mass of of about ~10^(-36) kg meaning there are about ~~10^(57) dipoles vortexing about inside! Photons have a Q Factor or quality factor that tell you the ratio of dipoles compressed in the photon compared to the vacuum. This Q Factor also gives the Half-life of the photon! Photons loose energy over time due to EM wave dispersion just like all EM Waves. They actually loose dipoles into the vacuum as they travel. The dipoles evaporate. This is also how blackholes (dark stars) evaporate. 1 EM Kinetic Dipole at a time. Blackholes DARK STARS are particles crushed down to there basic EM Dipoles Particles. A gamma photon take about 50 billion years to evaporate. This is the reason the visible universe is only 50 billion in any direction. All of the photon outside of the radius evaporate before getting to Earth and become the CMBR (waves of microwaves). The universe is not expanding and has been in steady state a LONG TIME! The density of dipoles varies inside particles and in vacuum. This density gradient causes ALL FORCES. Gravity is the force from the transfer of momentum from Vacuum EM dipoles kinetically colliding with YOUR EM Dipoles bound in particles and generating a net force along the EM Kinetic Dipole Mass Density Gradient or what WE CALL DOWN. We killed Einstein's Photon Clock. Photons do not move sideways. That triangle diagram does not happed. Photons will compress due do drag against the EM Field Dipoles and the photon will get smaller and blue shift and its path will curve exponentially until it straightens into a straight line. EM KD Theory also explains all phenomena like 2 slit diffraction ... Too much more to tell so... for now you can get a few lousy updates at @BozeonResearchAndAEtherVerificationEtaireia Videos and a series of short papers will be coming out later this year. 2021 2022 will be awesome year for physics!

Rene Descartes was so smart man. Cartesian planes, systematic scepticism, and first principles. Dude was the ultimate maths philosopher. Also, time is 3d too (x,y,z,t,t,t). You even get Lorentz equations out of it for particles because some of the "t" dimensions approach 0. time dilation around black holes already proves time has at least 2 dimensions, along with some inevitability such as entropy (beginning > end ,, particle decay or absorption as a time dimension)... (plus the linear time of a clock). No dark matter or dark energy required to fix bad physics. But it has other implications, such as a steady state universe due to asymptotic functions along t,t,t axes.

Outstanding and informative episode. Thanks guys. Matt mentions it in passing towards the end, but doesn’t QFT bring us a bit back towards the concept of an aether with everything represented as a vibration in an underlying field? If so, how is QFT reconciled with SR?

It so happened that I've learned about Michelson-Morley experiment while lurking at the livejournal pseudoscience debunking communities back in high school (there still are some aether enthusiasts in Russia, so they were frequently made fun of). I'll admit it wasn't the first thing that came to my mind when LIGO started making news a few years later, but eventually I did have that "waaait a minute, I think I've seen that somewhere before" moment. However, a question: can there theoretically be some conditions when this mini-LIGO could've detected gravitational waves, whereas the cosmic event would otherwise go generally unnoticed? Like, being straight down south on the Earth's axis. Or that event would have had to happen too close for us to survive it anyway, due to GRB or something?

It's quite a neat coincidence you're treating aether theory in this latest video. I have recently been enjoying the modern biography of James Clerk Maxwell - Professor Maxwell’s Duplicitous Demon: The Life and Science of James Clerk Maxwell by Brian Clegg (highly recommend it). Anyways, before you stray too far from Maxwell's time, I think it'd be excellent if you produced a video on Maxwell's explanation of the stability and motion of Saturn's Rings. His reasoning and logic applied to the problem are just as brilliant today as it was in his time. In a paper I wrote at university some years ago, I used his treatment of Saturn's Rings as an example of the value of "pure theoretical research" as his treatment of Saturn's Rings contributed greatly to his studies of gases and electromagnetism.
