Einsteins theory on gravity may be wrong. Initial experiments show that our understanding of physics may be flawed. Apparently dark matter does not exist.

I'll just leave that there.

if gravity doesn't exist there is no point hiding 'under' anywhere, surely?

Something to do with dark matter filling the gaps that gravity doesn't or something. Anyway, you're trying to suck me into a black hole. I'm going back under the table.

Hi guys

I think a few of you have misunderstood the O.P's post,

He is saying the theory of gravity is flawed and that DARK MATTER may not exist,

Which has profound implications in the world of physics,

Not that gravity is all of a sudden going to stop lol

O.P

Do you have a link to the journals this relates to ? Or an article as a starting point ?

Thankyou xx

Just Google Einstein and gravity and there are various news reports on it.

Interesting reading, Einstein's theory already didn't work with quantum mechanics but this really could be a scientific revelation if it passes further tests.

I can't remember who I was reading at the time but they explained it best that Einstein didn't prove Newton wrong he was dealing with gravity as we know it, while Einstein was dealing with it at light speed (ish).... We might just find something similar going on here

Ok, so it's a theory that re-imagines gravity with a non-Newtonian, non-Einsteinian model, in the process neatly oblivating the Dark Matter conundrum.

This theory has been floating around (so to speak) for a few decades but has past the first hurdle of not being disproved by observation.

And now the science bit:

"Erik Verlinde, a theoretical physicist at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, has been developing a competing model of gravity that borrows heavily from quantum mechanics, relativity, information theory and string theory. It also builds on controversial models of so-called modified gravity, such as the Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) theory of Mordehai Milgrom.

Verlinde’s calculations fit the new study’s observations without resorting to free parameters – essentially values that can be tweaked at will to make theory and observation match.By contrast, says Brouwer, conventional dark matter models need four free parameters to be adjusted to explain the data.

“The dark matter model actually fits slightly better with the data than Verlinde’s prediction,” says Brouwer. “But then if you mathematically factor in the fact that Verlinde’s prediction doesn’t have any free parameters, whereas the dark matter prediction does, then you find Verlinde’s model is actually performing slightly better.”

I thought there is gravity everywhere? The only reason you float around in a spaceship is it is travelling in the same direction and at the same speed as the astronauts so there is no relative movement? Or am i wrong?

Yes, this is the basic problem of the Standard Model.

Hubble's observations concerning the speed of rotation of galaxies doesn't match the amount of matter we can see (they rotate so fast that they should fly apart but don't, ergo there must be something else holding galaxies together), hence adding first Dark Matter and then Dark Energy to the mix to account for the 'missing' 95% of energy in the universe necessary to make it work within our existing framework. So we keep adding bits on to the Standard Model.

Or, as I've been arguing down the pub, maybe we've misunderstood something really basic.

Maybe it was gravity.

We'll see.

Newtons theory is 'true' but only holds so far, because of what Einstein added.

The 9.81m/s figure is the value on earth, due to earths particular mass and our distance from its centre, it is a different figure on different planets. The theory is universally true, just gives different figures due to different masses and distances.

"If there's no gravity in space then how come all the planets don't float away?if there was no gravity a planet wouldn't float away it would drop at a rapid speed like dropping a brick off a roof but on a bigger scale we float through space due to gravity."

I'm not the best at interpreting online sarcasm but please say this is a joke

Now look what you've done! No man with such a bad understanding of physics can stay on the site...

I was really hoping my string theory comment would attract the ladies rather than push him away (terrible puns most definitely intended)

Here's the thing..

The single BS thing is the denial that gravity exists and that we don't understand physics.

I don't understand Physics but I don't NEED to understand physics to know it fucking exists.

Whether gravity is a force of nature, the law of attraction or some demonic tendency dragging us towards the hell of the earths core... the gravity is there, and it's real, it EXISTS and it has a reason and it also has a cause.

Look hard enough, we'll find that cause, and that will be the truth and /debate ended about whether it does or doesn't exist right there and then..

We can't stamp your feet and scream:

"Yeah we don't understand science"

"yeah Science got it wrong."

I don't think anybody in the thread or the world is denying gravity exists.

The discussion is about its source. Like many scientific discoveries, once that is known and understood, it will help us in our technological progress. e.g you might get a levitating skateboard etc.

You're STILL doing it.

Guys, I don't know if this is the husband or the wife commenting but one or both of you really need to start reading threads properly.

Not that it makes any difference, but it's the man. I have read them, were was the denial of gravity?

The only questions were about its origin / detail.

Its like my pal and the worlds flat and not round because the gravity theory can't be proven right or wrong, of cause it cant its a invisible force. But if you really want proof just jump out of a plane with no parachute.

Gravity is one of the most fundamental forces in the universe. What do you get when you remove it?
