funny how you forget that real galactic observations is where relativity fails.

I am perfectly willing to accept that the observed amount of matter and energy didn't match the levels assumed when (Mrs?) Einstein first proposed GR, but when the discrepancies were noted the theories showed where to look, and what to look for. And strangely enough when scientists look in the places that the theory tells them to look, they find the things that the GR tells them that they will find so that now there are regular announcements about dark matter/energy being found all over the place. Of course some closed minded individuals will continue to deny the evidence while desperately clinging to their outmoded belief structure that has yet to match a single prediction to the actual measured value.

Quote:
nd for you belief is all it is because you bend over backwards with incompetent counters to the reality of radiation pressure...

I have never tried to counter the reality of radiation pressure. I am fully aware that it exists. I have even quoted its measured levels.
Your persistent refusal to understand the simple fact that there are measured values that contradict your pet fantasies. as well as to realise that your pet fantasy has no valid evidence to support it at all, let alone render it in any way "better" than the evidence based science that you seek to supplant reminds me of the quote from the game "Alpha Centauri"
Quote:
Man's unfailing capacity to believe what he prefers to be true rather than what the evidence shows to be likely and possible has always astounded me. We long for a caring Universe which will save us from our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary we will pin all our hopes on the slimmest of doubts. God has not been proven not to exist, therefore he must exist.
The only reason that you keep attacking current scientific understanding is that it clearly disproves the existence of your fantasy planet Nibiru, and shows your holy prophet Sitchin to be a delusional Walter Mitty character.
The fact that you still refuse to accept is that science is filling the gaps without recourse to the fantasies that you hold so dear. Luminiferous Aether has been consigned to the dustbin of history, along with the Sumerian gods that you worship as "space aliens"

Nibiru announcement on 3/26!

On that day an asteroid with rings was found and a dwarf planet that doesn't have the Nibiruian lovers claimed path.

Oops. More Nibiruians displaying their Chicken Little Syndrome

Relativity said CRAP about dark energy. The devil's in the details and you keep failing. You can't accept GR is local simpleton physics. The real world is quantum.

Nice of you to admit your science comes from video games...

Again, the devil's in the details. You epically fail but others who want to BELIEVE you will.

You talk about radiation from stars and ignore how much they block. What they output merely interferes with what is coming in.

You are filling the gaps with fantasies. GR is a fantasy.
It keeps getting adjusted just like you adjust your pants when they keep falling down.

You got nothing for me when I proved to you that 'the electron' was just the amount of EM energy within a ball with the accepted diameter of 'the electron'.
It's all EM waves. Everything else is fantasy.

You are the emperor with no clothes...

Remember reports of shape-shifting ufos....I'm sure you don't believe in them...

I will quote from the wikipedia article, not because it is all that I know but because it sums up the irony of your statement to perfection.
"Quantum mechanics (QM – also known as quantum physics, or quantum theory) is a branch of physics which deals with physical phenomena at nanoscopic scales where the action is on the order of the Planck constant. It departs from classical mechanics primarily at the quantum realm of atomic and subatomic length scales. And you claim that GR is a localised effect

So when you go outside at night and take a look at the night sky, is it a bright view with occasional dark pinpricks, or a dark background with tiny twinkly lights.
You are still ignoring the word MEASURED.
Scientists have MEASURED the levels of energy and RP coming from the Sun. They have also MEASURED the levels of energy coming from other sources. It took the Voyager probes over thirty five years of travelling away from the sun for the radiation from the sun to fall to background levels. Do you understand what the term MEASURED means in the real world?

A good point I ran into elsewhere that applies here. When someone uses scientific terms by redefining their definition it is because they are peddling pseudoscience.

Right because dark energy isn't pseudo-science and in fact everything that you have to hack onto GR is as well...

You are so dumb. You chastise me for quoting from a wiki then do it yourself.
I said quantum physics is closer to reality than GR.
the GR scale is just a manifestations of complex quantum interactions as has been proven many times.
GR is just a hack approximation of local space and scale. In fact it is full of errors like the double force paradox.

Your tiny pee brain seems to only accept visible light as light.
Last time I checked, there's a 120 order of magnitude difference between what you think is empty space and reality.

You seem to not know what 'pseudoscientific' means. It's something that exists and is claimed to be 'scientific' while failing to have uncovered in a scientific manner. Dark Energy may well be bad or wrong science, but it doesn't make it pseudoscientific. Take, for example creationism. They claim the universe and world were made in 7 days because the book said so. There's no scientific foundation to base the belief of creationism on. Dark Energy as defined is a scientific idea. IF it turns out to be wrong then it's a wrong scientific idea.

Thanks for the failed experiment. Science is full of wrong experiments. They're almost always a positive because it's through being wrong that we learn. The question that remains is did the experiment fail because the scientific idea was wrong or did it fail because of something innately wrong with the experiment itself.

That last question can't be answered until we know more about the result. Which means, in turn, more experiments. Now, if those future experiments show us more about Dark Energy or if they show us more about some other scientific postulate, it really doesn't matter. In so far, that with either one of them we're learning more about our universe.


One important distinction you've yet to make is that a failed experiment only shows a failed experiment. If a GR experiment failed it doesn't mean that your Electric Universe is accurate. Instead the Electric Universe person must provide better quantitative and qualitative information. IF they can do that then the scientific paradigms shift.

I've mentioned in the past to go read Thomas Kuhn. Did you ever do so? Or perhaps any other philosophers who take on trying to understand how the system of science operations? You really need to. It'd help to clear up your misunderstandings here.

@BrianK

The only misunderstanding here is that you accept "good enough" despite the fact that it's clearly wrong.

As for "experiment" I just linked where plasma physicists modelled galactic interaction in the lab, something GR fails to do, and you still are asking where the "experiment" is...

This is a classic case of a nimrod's "see no evidence, speak no evidence, hear no evidence" syndrome...

Speaking of wrong, while I believe quantum principles is the way to go... The "standard model" is stupid.

http://arstechnica.com/science/2014/04/forget-the-higgs-neutrinos-may-be-the-key-to-breaking-the-standard-model/

Every time science peers deeper into sub-atomic "particles" they keep finding more empty space.

It's all waves and treating things as particles is another exercise in dumbing down and pointing in the wrong direction.

Science NEVER accepts 'good enough'. It's constantly reassessing if we know what we think we know. As a follower of this methodology of discovery I too realize that there's no such thing as 'good enough'.

Quote:

So it's stronger than your 'have claimed to reproduce galactic' statement? In so far as it's been validated and duplicated?

Quote:
The "standard model" is stupid
To bring it back to your first statement we all have known that the "Standard Model" is not 'good enough' to predict everything. The Standard Model has an excellent record of confirmation against it's predictions. It's worked, very, very well. But, again we know it's not everything so therefore not 'good enough' and the work continues.

Quote:

This stuff is not a wave, according to the present state of research. Though it is neither a particle either. . But, instead something considered a wavicle.

What appears to be happening is because people exist, operate, and communicate about the macro environment, we don't experience wavicles. In order to better communicate the event happening within a common frame of reference it may be easier to treat the interaction as waves or as particles.

It is all waves and I've linked to a site that showed direct examples about how waves can produce all the effects thought to be from particles.

'Coz it's all about Roswell

The scientific principle states that ALL assertions are deemed FALSE unless evidenced as TRUE. This includes the assertion "it's all EM". This is backed up by the Lex Parsimoniae which states that among competing hypotheses, the hypothesis with the fewest assumptions should be selected.
What you are doing is presupposing the conclusion, trawling through mountains of information for the few scraps that seem to support your original postulate (little green men) and ignoring mountains of evidence that contradicts your predetermined conclusion.

The other thing that you still don't understand is that even if aliens did arrive at some point in the 1940's, it doesn't validate all your other C. R. A. P.

Yes indeed, I remember you posting links to
some pictures that were entries into a photoshop competition and claiming that they were evidence of giants. I believe Olegil and others dealt with it effectively.
Your article claims that samples were sent to the Smithsonian for testing, so I will wait until the Smithsonian publishes the results before accepting the claims made.

This from somebody that posted an equation for magnetic levitation to show how a non magnetic moon orbits the Earth "because EM", and then admitted desperately trawling up any old C.R.A.P. that he could find Or doesn't that count?
You are like the sad creationists who keep claiming that ica stones are proof that man lived with dinosaurs like an episode of "The Flintstones"
