The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't, by subtracting where it is, from where it isn't, or where it isn't, from where it is, whichever is greater, it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance sub-system uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is, to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position where it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event of the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has required a variation. The variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too, may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.

@@YouReadMyName Hm I am not entirely sure I follow you here. We know that the speed of light in a vacuum is a constant. Thus, it will remain the same unless it goes to another medium. Now, the reason why physicists put the speed of light at the center of everything is because it is a constant. Physicists always try to "link" their equations/theories to constants (things we know are always going to have a very specific value and are intrinsically linked to our universe). Now, how do we know the speed of light is a constant? We have Maxwell's equations and Einstein's thought experiments/relativity to prove it. So light can't magically slow down at the edges of a galaxy or somewhere (unless it changes medium). So the fabric of space and time and relativity how we know it requires the speed of light to be constant.

The ultimate criteria for a new model being used is: does it more accurately predict what we would see in the aspect you need better than the previous model. The process to go from an Earth centric to a Sun centric model started with Copernicus and ended with Kepler and Newton because the new model became better than the old model. The same thing will happen but it will take time and patience to get a new model right.

Exactly. And that's why I really dislike video titles like "new JWST data destroy Big Bang theory" or something similar. With the usual cosmologists from the YT university who all have known always that the BBT was wrong and their model is much better. That their model does not encompass many other observations they simply have never heard of because they never really did research, who cares. They have their model and they are right. And up to now, all observations point to a Big Bang. A new model must include all previous observations. That usually negates a model that is completely and radically different. A good example is Newtonion gravity vs. Einstein theory of relativity. Einstein's new theory was revolutionary, but in the end if you set the right boundary conditions (e.g. objects with speed below roughly 10% c) you are back at newtonian gravity. And if there ever will be a new model of how the universe came into existence, it will be some form of Big Bang. Maybe not in the sense as we know it today, but today's BBT will be a part of the new model.

That's the problem. The thing that makes general relativity so accepted is the fact that it predicts many phenomenon for which it wasn't specifically designed to explain. I do believe early forms of relativity *were* designed to explain away the existence of an "ether" continuum that could carry electromagnetic waves. The Lorentz transformations were originally seen as "fudge factors to make the equations work". Until Einstein took it a step farther that was all it was. Relativity wasn't fully accepted as a complete theory until Einstein formulated it in a specific way that predicted all kinds of things from gravitational bending of light to mass-energy equivalence. So far there just isn't a similar "grand theory of gravity" that explains many different phenomenon. A formulation macro-gravity that only works well for galaxy rotation speeds just isn't very robust.

Alternative Explanation of Dark Matter and Dark Energy - Newly proposed model of Universe can explain both of Dark Matter and Dark Energy Einstein’s theory of General Relativity states that spacetime is curved by the presence of mass. This curvature influences the motion other objects with mass and gives rise to gravitation. Thus, gravity is a result of geometric features in spacetime. However, we also observe gravitational effects - curvature of spacetime - in areas without any detectable mass. This has given rise to the concept of dark matter, which is matter that does not interact in any detectable way with normal matter, except through gravity. So, there is some large quantity of dark matter scattered throughout the universe, which curves spacetime and causes gravitational effects just like normal matter, but we cannot see or detect it with any known method. An alternative theory to the identity of dark matter is proposed - it is not matter at all, but rather an intrinsic curvature of spacetime. In other words, spacetime is not naturally flat. Even in the absence of matter, we observe some inherent curvature of spacetime. So, the question is now - why is spacetime naturally curved? Why is it not flat in the absence of mass? The universe is 4-dimensional, with 3 spatial dimensions and one dimension in time. Rather than consider time as a linear dimension, we can consider it as a radial one. Therefore, rather than describing the universe with a Cartesian coordinate system, we describe it with a 4-dimensional spherical coordinate system - 3 angular coordinates, φ1, φ2, φ3, and one radial coordinate in time, t. We live on the 3-dimensional surface of a 4-dimensional bubble which is expanding radially in time. Thus, the Big Bang represents t=0, the beginning of time. The crucial point is that the expansion of the universe is not homogeneous in all directions. The expansion rate at one point on the bubble’s surface may differ slightly from another point near it. The universe is only roughly spherical in 4 dimensions, the same way that the Earth is only roughly spherical in 3 dimensions. The same way we observe local mountains and valleys on the surface of Earth, we observe local “mountains” and “valleys” on the surface of the universe bubble. The inhomogeneity of the expansion of the universe has given rise to natural curvature of spacetime. This natural curvature causes the phenomenon of “dark matter”. “Valleys” in spacetime pull matter in, similarly to the warping of spacetime of massive objects. So “dark matter” is really “valleys” in spacetime that are expanding slower than the regions surrounding it. These valleys tend to pull matter in and create planets, stars, and galaxies - regions of space with higher-than-average densities of mass. Conversely, “mountains” in spacetime will repel matter away, an “anti-gravitational” effect, which gives rise to cosmic voids in space where we observe no matter. Each point on the surface of the universe bubble traces out a time arrow in 4-dimensional space, perpendicular to the surface. These time arrows are not parallel to each other since the universe is not flat. This causes points to have nonzero relative velocity away from each other. It is generally accepted that the universe is expanding faster than observable energy can explain, and this is expansion is believe to be still accelerating. The “missing” energy required to explain these observations has given rise to the theory of dark energy. The time dilation caused by non-parallel time arrows can be proposed as an explanation for dark energy. Alternatively, dark energy is real energy coming from potential energy gradients caused by non-parallel time arrows. As a sanity check, we can calculate the expansion rate of the universe based on the universe bubble model. Since the radius of the universe bubble is expanding at the speed of light in the time direction, it increases at 1 light second per second. Therefore, the “circumference” of the 3-dimensional surface increases by 2π light seconds per second, or about 1.88*10^6 km/s. This expansion is distributed equally across the 3-dimensional surface, so the actual observed expansion rate is proportional to the distance from the observer. At present, the age of the universe is estimated to be 13.8 billion years, so the radius of the universe bubble is 13.8 billion light years, or about 4233 megaparsecs (3.26 million light years to 1 Mpc). Thus, we can calculate the expansion rate of the universe, per megaparsec from the observer, as: Expansion rate = ((d(circumference))/dt)/radiusofuniverse=(1.88*〖10〗^6 km⁄s)/(2π*4233Mpc)=(1.88*〖10〗^6 km⁄s)/26598Mpc=70.82(km⁄s)/Mpc The popularly accepted empirical expansion rate is 73.5 +/- 2.5 km/s/Mpc, so our calculated value is close. There may be some additional source of expansion (or observed red shift) to make up for the discrepancy. For example, if two adjacent points have some gravitational gradient due to non-parallel time arrows, then light passing through these points will be red-shifted. - Cited from www.academia.edu/82481487/Title_Alternative_Explanation_of_Dark_Matter_and_Dark_Energy

It's crap "pop science" and it's just click bait. It's trash.

This is an interesting theory and at one point could have made a strong case for replacing dark matter. However in 2006 the gravitational lensing of the Bullet Cluster provided strong evidence against it. To simplify if there was only Baryonic matter there, they would have observed the lensing in a smaller area(or the gas left from when the galaxies passed thru each other), but what was actually observed was two separate lensing areas (the weakly interacting dark matter would have just passed thru)

There's a model that fits observations and solves neatly the issue with dark energy etc by extending Einstein's field equations with negative energy and negative gravity (if i understand it correctly). Model is called Janus, put together by French cosmologist Jean-Pierre Petit. He has a KZread channel and at least one video in English where he explains it.

Another thing is that matter does not orbit the centers of galaxies as such to produce a rotation curve that requires dark matter in the first place. If the matter orbit is more elliptical, i.e. it goes from the edge toward the center and then back to the edge, then the resulting rotation curve would be largely static as it appears based on observations. Any discrepancies at this point could be attributed to innate electromagnetic field generated by the galaxy itself, mostly the much denser inner core.

Considering this is being discussed for decades and there is a feature about MOND theories like every other month in mainstream television for about 3 years now, calling it a 'plot twist' or 'new' is a bit ambitious imho.

First you got duped by dark matter, now you’re gonna get duped by ‘aqual’. Don’t believe everything you hear.

~ NOTE: Take in mind that Electromagnetism & Gravity, both have infinite ranges, as you read the following. ~ A perfectly spherical black hole has an equally spherical electromagnetic & gravitational signature, which makes them relatively indistinguishable in size from each other. However when the black hole assumes the shape of a gravitational accretion disk, then the electromagnetic properties & characteristics also equally transform into a jet stream. (The shape transformation is due to the colour & density size signature of the particular object, with the strong & weak force determining the limits, ie...a quasar is larger than a galaxy, a galaxy is larger than a solar system, etc...therefore their colour & density shape & size signatures are different, yet uniquely distinguishable) ie...a quasar is larger than a galaxy, a galaxy is larger than a solar system, etc...therefore their colour & density shape & size signatures are different, yet uniquely distinguishable) Since the electromagnetic & gravitational signatures are still relevently relative to each other, then they are balanced & equilibrated around their center of gravity & electromagnetic signatures. And as the shape of the black hole relative to the electromagnetic stream changes, from the point of the center of the gravitational & electromagnetic signature, then this causes the gravitational lens effect, as well as the electromagnetic lens effect. Of which both consequences are the temporal dilation & the spatial contraction effects. ~ All the so called missing dark matter is out there, hidden in plain sight, only further out in the void of space, as it encompasses all possible matter, including visible & not visible matter. The same goes for any missing electromagnetic radiation, it is hidden in plain sight, as it also reaches further out into the vacuum void of space, beyond visible & not visible light, to us.

The issue with MOND as a theory is that it doesn’t provide a new model. It doesn’t have any underlying mechanism to explain why there’s two domains to gravity. Dark matter at least puts forth a mechanism, even if it has some real issues.

Yes, the current theory is seriously flawed, but still rigorously defended… you really have to question the human condition in all this, as it appears progress in the sciences only proceeds one funeral at a time (Max Plank).

The extra mass is what we call Dark Matter.

"dark matter" has never sat right with me. I'm just an armchair type so I don't know much about anything, but I have always wondered if there's a very simple fundamental misunderstanding that has inferred its existence when in fact it doesn't really exist. It's similar to quantum mechanics/particle physics for me. Big elaborate interpretations like many-worlds or Copenhagen are all the rage, but in the end I think it's going to be something more "boring", like pilot wave (de Broglie/Bohm), it's just that the idea of many-worlds, or all these crazy probability states that collapse when observed are more enticing because it gets our imaginations going. Of course pilot-wave has its own set of problems (non-locality for instance), but I feel like, yet again, our imaginations are tripping us up. I'd love to be wrong though (and I usually am), I love a good mystery!

There was a wonderful physics paper released last year, which indicated that gravity was the force that time created (or an aftereffect) when it interacted with matter. and the reason the paper was little noticed at the time is their conclusion that our calculations for gravity were wrong, and that it was highly likely that dark matter didn't exist. They had a lot of really eye opening models to prove it too. it was a fascinating paper, which to date i don't think anyone has disproven yet.

It is acutally anything but. We found Neptune and Pluto because our data implied there is more matter than we know. It told us how much it is and where to look for it. Is the same method that led to the postulation of dark matter. The data seems to point to some matter that seems to be distributed as if it only interacts with gravity but not with the electromagnetic force. The latter is also the reason why we can't see it (if it exists) and struggle to find it, but this isn't a cheap excuse, it is predicted by the data (if it is a particle).

Given that General Relativity is a better model for things like the orbit of Mercury and gravitational lensing, has anyone tried using that instead of Newtonian Mechanics for the rotation of galaxies to see if that can explain the observations? For example, Special and General Relativistic effects are needed to accurately keep time in GPS satelites. I know that Newtonian Mechanics is easier to compute, but it is known to be inaccurate in high gravitation fields. -- For example, it could be that the presence of supermasive blackholes in the centre of galaxies are affecting the rotation. And/or some other effect due to the distribution of mass in a galaxy that is warping spacetime, especially as more mass is concentrated toward the centre of the galaxy and that galaxies are rotating. Thus, the resulting spacetime will also be rotating like in LIGO observed and modelled two blackhole mergers. -- This would have the effect that the inner part of the galaxy is more "twisty" than the outer part, and the drop off in speed could be the point at which that "twistyness" drops off.

​@mevenstien well said yet the "law"makers were the one whom named it. This is just a theory. And the proof needed to be a "law" is what is not observable without building on or from Newtons theory being modified. Dark matter I believe might have been a filler for un known mechanics. Yet we search for unknown evidence and over and over again mistakenly continue to look towards this dark place while refusing alternative and still looking. No evidence

Cosmology..... Such an amazing name for the title. The quality of videos is also increasing day by day. Great job SOU

While alternations to Newtonian mechanics do produce a lot of interesting alternatives to dark matter, and are able to predict the orbits of stars correctly, they tend to fall short in other regards. Namely certain observed phenomena like gravitational lensing, mentioned in the video. As breifly mentioned, there's also the problem with galaxy clusters, more precisely the average squared velocity of them, which is much greater than what is needed to achieve escape velocity from the cluster if only the observable matter is there. There is also the formation of complex structures in the universe where it is impossible for the level of complexity we observe today to be present if there were only electrically charged, and coupled, particles in the early universe. Which protons and electrons are. ΛCDM isn't a perfect model, a lot of cosmologists take issue with the cosmological constant for instance. However it is the established theory atm over Newtonian tweaks for a reason.

I'm sure you have a lot of observations and models to back up that claim. Cause denying not only SR and GR, but also observed neutrinos is pretty bold. It's also a lot more productive in terms of pure output of papers to find alternatives to the ΛCDM, that's kinda how the scientific community works. The point of contention in that model is Λ though, not the CDM.

I never felt comfortable with the current theories of "dark matter" and "dark energy". It's just scientific double speak for "...we don't know", so let's make something up so that we can plug "fudge factors" into the models we have. A technique learned from Tycho Brahe.

If I’m understanding this right, all that AQUAL proposes is that the rules of gravity change at some point? What causes that transition? If we don’t know, do we just call it a “Dark Transition” where some “Dark Force” of the universe acts on gravity and matter? It kind of sounds like this comes with the same problems as dark matter. Some unknown forces acts on gravity, and we don’t know what it is yet.

When we first learned how to create a vacuum that we could do tests with and were trying to understand if space was a vacuum, seems similar. Scientists noticed they could put a ringing bell in a vacuum, and no sound could be heard. What perplexed them was they could still see the bell and motion. This was a big deal because they assumed photons would need a medium to travel, but there was no medium for sound. This led to scientists believing there was an unknown "ether" in the universe that light must be using. It actually took a long time to understand that photons can just pass through a vacuum. I have always felt "dark matter" is just another example of us being convinced we understand things that we don't.

What I'd like to know is if they ever heated this vacuum chamber up or cooled it down and then took a measurement. Sound travels faster in warm water and air since there is more energy. Can you add energy to a vacuum by heating it up? If so, that would prove the existence of an ether in which light travels.

Oh no, You mean scientists were guessing based on limited information this entire time!?

I won't be shocked if we find out in some years that we are simply overthinking it.....

I'm a high school dropout and even I found it annoying that they invented a mythical no-seeum material because their math didn't add up. It makes sense to assume something like dark-matter, but the idea that there assumptions about gravity were wrong was never given any press as far as I know.

The thunder bolts project explains these phenomena very well without using dark matter nor dark energy. Check them out.

Mike McCulloch's Quantised Inertia fits the observations better than MOND etc. and also eliminates some of the arbitrary universal constants

There's also a theory, advanced by Subir Sarkar among others, that we are actually in a highly atypical location in the universe and that dark energy is unnecessary to explain observations. This theory also goes against Lambda-CDM. I don't know if it's compatible with AQUAL.

Ahh, tweaking the formula - always fun

AQUAL was introduced by Bekenstein and Milgrom in 1984.

It's odd that they expected the outer arms of the galaxy to be moving slower than the inner part. If that were true, wouldn't the galaxy's arms "wind up" around the axis? It's what my eyes expected to see happen when I was watching the animation. When a wheel rotates, the outer rim has to move faster because it covers more distance in the same time, since the thing is moving as a unit. So if the galaxy were retaining it's spiral shape, wouldn't that mean the outer edges have to moving as fast or faster?

Perhaps we dont fully understand the effects black holes have on surrounding bodies and time-space. Perhaps the black hole is literally sucking the "time" out of the closer bodies. The further away the bodies are, the more they travel at their "normal" speed. Idk interesting to think about.

What comes to mind for me is that there's a hidden force at work. What I envision is a quantum force similar to entanglement in which distant objects 'communicate' with each other... This communication becomes a pull as the objects are further apart, as they continue to want to communicate instantly. As the objects are further apart, however, this communication becomes more difficult. The distant objects pull on each other in their effort to remain connected. In this way, greater force is exhibited as a consequence of greater distance, resulting in what 'appears' to be a violation of the inverse square law.

Adding to what I stated earlier, when observations (such as complex stars & large galaxies in the newly formed universe), those observations MUST be taken into account. Occham's Razor states that the simplest theory that takes ALL reputable observations into account is likely to be correct, DESPITE it's deviation from previous explanations.

@@hah-vj7hc If there's one thing that is constant in our universe, it's change (toward increased entropy 2nd law of thermodynamics). That being the case, as I understand it, if objects are to remain entangled, they will each have to change simultaneously when the other does, with no time delay. Otherwise, they're no longer entangled. Direct evidence of those changes (other than the fact that both objects are constantly changing) from the distant object is unavailable. However, IF both objects continue to be entangled, they would need to respond to the changes of their partner (or how can we say that they're entangled?) The independent confirmation of the other object's change is subject to SOL restrictions. Nevertheless (what I'm calling information) is the simultaneous changes each experience themselves, not their confirmation.

From what I'm taking away from this with my smooth brain is that aqual is a duct tape theory to gravity. We've managed to take a kind of constant from galaxy spin speeds, and it turns out this constant works well for all galaxies. We can measure and predict it more accurately with this theory. As long as it is EXACTLY galaxy spin speeds and nothing else. In which case Dark matter is a very effective working theory, where everything works with it. Its just that aqual predicts one specific thing better, but doesn't seem to work as a whole

This morning I was sitting here looking out my window and viewing the trees in the distance, and I had a revelation. The irregularities in the glass pane gave me an idea. I could see that somtimes the trees were magnified if the light from them passed through a part of the glass that was thicker, like a lens. It seems to me that this could account for the "gravitational lensing" that is seen when light comes from distant galaxies. Some have said that this is evidence of "dark matter", but I believe it could simply be irregularities in space itself, caused by the distortion of space-time when in close proximity to normal matter. This distortion would cluster around a galaxy and could account for the outside of a galaxy moving faster than predicted by Newtonian gravity, as witnessed by Fritz Zwicky. The space-time would be "thicker" toward the center of the gravitational mass of the galaxy, and would result in a higher than calculated "attraction" of the outer arms of the galaxy, making them speed faster as they rotate around. For the Einsteinian view, the space-time curvature would be stronger toward the center of the galaxy, making the galaxy's outer arms curve more toward the center of the mass. If the Big Bang theory is true, then at the point in time when all matter and energy was created, space-time was also created, and started to expand outward. Space, being something, would be expanding into the "nothingness" of what was there before. It would be like throwing a high concentration of gas into a vacuum chamber. The gas would expand rapidly outward. Another analogy could be like opening a clock and freeing the clockspring to unwind. But in the case of space-time the outward expansion goes on forever, because there is no boundary to restrain it. This represents a tremendous amount of energy, because space is a tremendous pressure. This is referred to as "Dark Energy". This is what is pushing all of the universe away from us, which is why all of the "red shift" we see when looking out into space. For us now, locally, space is restrained by the space near it, but in the beginning there was no space near to restrain the expansion. So, in that beginning there was a wild amount of expansion right off the bat. This could be the "inflation" that has been postulated by some scientists. But the expansion of space will continue to go on forever.

You are describing gravitational lensing... we know this happens around matter and measure that's effects. But the issue is there is *more* than can be accounted for by the visible mass. Visible matter "thickens" the glass, and magnifies the tree. But we can see how thick the glass is, and for some reason we're getting more magnification than we should. It's magnificent as if it was twice as thick. And for some reason when we weigh the glass (look at something completely unrelated like how fast the galaxy is spinning) it happens to also be twice as heavy as it should. So all our measurements point to it being twice as thick, and twice as heavy... but for some reason we can't see why. Adding some glass that we somehow cannot see fixes the problem, and it behaves consistently, but it's rather strange we can't see it but only measure it through it's mass. We don't know what that is so we give it a name "invisible glass" and try find further evidence to show whether it does or does not exist.

I think the issue lies in the way that galaxies and stars form: planets form from star matter, which is dominantly from the center of a star system; while stars and galaxies may be a different occasion. After all, starting conditions of space system formation are different

Dark matter can be explained as the superpositional footprint of all mass particles in the system. This footprint is described in parallel world history sheets that describe all possible degrees of freedom as defined by their energy density as in relation the monadic Planck volume. The reason it’s dark is because photons are isolated to the objective frame you are experiencing. The dark superpositional footprint of all particles in a system can be calculated and will make predictions in a logically proportional way. The many worlds of QM is literal, and it is only objective reference frames (or quantum history sheets) that partition them off from one another. The cosmos is Omni dimensional from this view, and finite slices of this whole is how we define our moment to moment reference frame. All of these finite reference frames sum to the whole of the bulk space. Conclusion, the universe we experience is finite and generative for all observers, however these finite sheets sum to a value that approaches the highest order of infinity. Where GR needs extension is through the many other combinations of parallel world sheets that are always shedding from the single origin point of any finite reference frame. Therefore, spacetime has a gradient density, like pinching a sponge from the inside, the base units (Planck volumes) rearrange based on the amount of energy the mass particle is borrowing from the underlying quantum vaccum. That vaccum is an Omni dimensional scalar field (a master fractal) that derived its units from pure geometry. Perfect omnipresent cosmic symmetry is always exalted in the infinite transcendent space, and that symmetry is constantly breaking to generate the finite reference frames of its finite inhabitants.

While I'm sure there's forms of matter and energy we cant detect yet, dark mater never made since to me. The gist of my favorite theory that I've heard is that in areas as close to perfect empty as possible in space (no matter or energy which is rare) the quantum field causes matter to appear and disappear and sometimes it stabilizes and doesn't disappear again. Causing a fast at first and now slow but clearly growing universe.

Also the cosmic rays (In particular protons and neutrons) expelled by super novae also at nearly the speed of light. Remember as matter approaches the speed of light it's mass increases nearly exponentially. I have seen studies of cosmic rays (identified as a proton) striking the Earth that impacted the atmosphere with the force of a 90 MPH baseball.
