JournalofCosmology.com Dark Matter Dark Energy & the Unknown Universe, by Rhawn Joseph, Ph.D.
In this National Science Foundation program, Sean Carroll, a senior research associate at the California Institute of Technology, sheds light into the “dark side” of the universe that may actually be the key to unlocking the mystery that is the universe. The type of matter we’re familiar with and encounter everyday – atoms and molecules – only makes up about 5 percent of the universe. The remaining 95 percent is believed to be dark matter and dark energy. Explore the history of dark energy and dark matter by following Einstein’s path to uncovering the theory that sparked a change in the world of astrophysics and the controversies behind that theory.

There’s is a personal God .

Checkout Dr. Peri Spolter’s interview, “What if Einstein was wrong?” by ItsRainMakingTime on YouTube.
Spolter is not a physicist (Ph.d biochemistry, U. of Wisconsin). Her book “Gravitational Force of the Sun” is research all her own & not influenced by academic &/or corporate funding.
Showing how Newton & Einstein did NOT use observational data but imaginary concepts that selectively use nature to fit the theory, she also disclaims the concept of space/time, i.e. time as a 4th dimension.

@DeuteriumDrones Yeh. And we’d all talk funny, too.
[Reply]
@DeuteriumDrones that wouldn´t amount to a cup of spit compared to the amount of energy required to make the physics work.

I love watching scientist get all hot and bothered over which way to look at the universe and it’s all wrong. LOL Is this the best we can do…really?

@Thunkful2 Coincidentally I have asked my doctors several questions to which they’ve responded with “No on knows”, an example being: In uncompensated labyrinthitis, is the damage to the vestibulo-cochlear nerve due to the viral infection itself or is it due to an over-zealous immune response? A previous question was similar but about stomach infections and inflammation and ulcers. Both times I got the same answer and they were both a little shocked to have their knowledge challenged hehe.

@casinomagicportal I should have said Feinman as well!

@DeuteriumDrones Neutrons are the only one of the 3 stable forms of matter with no chemical properties and neither reflect or emit light! They are utterly incapable of it!
[Reply]
@DeuteriumDrones If dark matter were helium it would be made up of protons and electrons aemit and reflect light….it would have chemical properties and be visible! Electron shells and orbitals emit light when excited!

@petronius0 Inertial mass and gravitational mass measure the same but there is no accounting for this by any current theory in physics! Thats because the physicists examine matter and energy but largely disreguard their interactions with space itself. Its like the chemists who observe reactions but ignore the properties of water or the geneticists who study dna and choose to ignore the surrounding proteins.

Isn’t Dark Matter just all the HELIUM that’s emitted from the 200 Billion stars located in the center of a spiral galaxy? Stars burn hydrogen resulting in helium. And the helium dissipates throughout Space, keeping everything else afloat. Just my thoughts.

@Thunkful2 I suppose that is one way to view energy. But I think that that is an incomplete way to view energy. Take kinetic energy, for instance.

I should have said why would the speed of matter be limited to what it is.
[Reply]
Einstine suggested Gravity is not a real force many years a go. He said it was the result of matter distorting space. Feldman unified sting theory 50 years ago, a theory whose basic premise was that all the known forces were the result of distorted space. Space and matter interact with each other or why would the speed limit of light be limited to what it is? And even the speed of emr is determined by the properties of space.
