Thank you Doug.
I have a morosophic attachement to the push concept..in part because when I first thought of the idea I was unaware that it was already a very old concept (1745 is the date attached to LeSage having the idea)... thinking it was my original idea I worked on it for a long time before I realised it was already out there... I focussed upon it because it was the only way I could make gravity work..assuming I was left to build that part of the Universe... but right or wrong trying to engage the subject of gravity has seen me reading all sorts of stuff I never would have bothered with... and with each question answered being replaced with more questions.
Many will not accept the push concept and our mate is not the only man to have argued against it..assuming reasonably that as you say he held it up to tear it down........and I respect the chap particulary for his surprising statement given his profession....
"love nature..hate mathematics.."
For a moment I felt he could be converted but I suspect the statement held deeper meaning ..perhaps that nature was indeed the embodiment of mathematics.
If gravity pushes the space craft that leave our solar system will get "stuck" they will appear to slow, finally stop and then appear to race away at approx 350 kms per second....
I dont think I cut across GR as I can not see that it says gravity pushes or pulls no could it if the underlying aspect of the theory is that there is no force attached to gravity.
So there is a prediction to maybe escalate the idea to a theory
..
I reckon the Corona of the Sun is due to the out flow of the Sun's energy meeting the inflow of the particle pressure I associate with what makes up gravity...and I feel that is reasonable in principle as certainly that approach does not require systems that are not apparent to supply the vast energy to have the Corona so much hotter than the Sun's surface. I do not see the suggestions that hot gas is transfered "up there" as viable...and even those speculations say that only one 10,000th of the energy can be taken up that way...sorry drifting off a little.... but push fits so well.
I also feel push gets rid of the need for dark matter and push explains the motions of outter stars orbital speed... and to me I think a Universe where we can see most of the matter more desirable than one where we need unsceen matter to make up the greater percentage of all that is....
However at this point in time I feel my views have some way to go before they are generally accepted
I do say however it is the flow of particles that "bend" the space time grid... so I see no conflict
..I should be able to use most of the GR stuff to finally support my ideas
Have a great day I must get back to the Lab
