billslugg replied to the thread Space Compression Theory of Gravity.I don't understand GR thus I am unable to comment on any GR point. That each observer sees themselves as unchanged proves that time...

billslugg replied to the thread Negative Mass exists, Newton's Laws opposite.EM waves have zero rest mass but are never at rest. All EM waves have mass equivalent to their energy.

billslugg replied to the thread Space Compression Theory of Gravity.Every observer has an absolute reference for the rate at which time passes since every observer's clock runs at the same rate as...
