Title: The nature of light and the size of the Universe.
Post by: AlexandrKushnirtshuk on 01/01/2021 16:32:10
The nature of light.

A photon has energy and momentum (weight) but no mass. It is obvious that light is vibrations of some medium (ether). This environment cannot but have resistance, damping or absorbing light vibrations with time and distance. I will describe the essence in simple words so as not to complicate and not drag out the explanation.

1) Water waves.
They spread longer (in time) than sound, but at a shorter distance (at a lower speed). Distribution medium: water.

2) Sound waves.
The lifetime of sound waves is shorter than that of water waves, but the speed (and distance) is greater. Distribution medium: atmosphere (gas).

3) Light waves.
By analogy, the lifetime of light waves should be much shorter than the lifetime of sound waves, but since the speed of light is about 300,000 km/s - the propagation distance is greater. Distribution medium: aether.

(https://i.ibb.co/LJVDKqn/pt.jpg)
(a schematic representation of a photon - a conventional unit of oscillation (wave) of the aether) Image text translation: The movement of one light wave (photon) from the source to complete attenuation and / or absorption by the medium (aether).

At the beginning of the 20th century, scientists rejected the completely plausible hypothesis of the Tired Light, began to carry out fortune-telling by redshifts of the spectrum (like on coffee grounds, only by the spectral emissions), and billions of light years, black holes, dark energies, and distant-distant galaxies rushed.

Light years?

A photon cannot exist not only for years, but even for minutes. Example. Standing in the lake. You throw a stone. First you hear the sound, later the waves come. Waves on water, sound waves in a gaseous medium and light waves in ether are phenomena of the same nature, but of different orders due to the environment. If waves on water “live” for minutes, and sound waves in a gaseous medium “live” for seconds, then light waves in their medium (ether) “live” for a fraction of a second. All this depends on the power of the source of wave oscillations, so it can be assumed that light waves from the Sun can exist for several seconds, but not more (not minutes, and even less years).

Even if in the space environment (vacuum) there is no resistance, there is no heat exchange, then the distance is overcome (volume expansion with distance), which cannot occur absolutely without energy consumption. In addition, the space of the cosmic vacuum cannot be absolutely empty. There cannot but be certain, albeit minimal, resistance and heat transfer. Light years and 8 light minutes from Sun to Earth are physically impossible.

Again. Attentively. This is very important to understand. Overcoming distance in any environment, that is, regardless of the environment, cannot occur without energy consumption (or with zero energy consumption). Since a photon has a very low energy charge, and a very high speed of movement, and no medium (including space) can have absolutely zero resistance, then, accordingly, the lifetime (life) of one photon (wave oscillation of the medium - ether) is very short, not exceeding at least one minute.

Definition. The lifetime of a unit of wave oscillations (one wave) is inversely proportional to the speed of their propagation (or directly proportional to the inertia of the medium) and is directly proportional to the power of their source.

Since the aether is not scientifically recognized, it turns out that a photon is a conventional unit of wave oscillations of an incomprehensible medium? A photon has weight (energy and momentum), but no mass - it is obvious that this is an oscillation (wave) of some medium (aether).

Addition.

If the distance from the Earth to the Sun were 150,000,000 km, that is, 8 light minutes, then the STEREO Ahead and STEREO Behind spacecraft would simply be impossible to control, and it would be impossible to receive any data from them. For example. STEREO A (itself being in constant motion in orbit) sends a signal to the Earth that flies in space for 8 minutes, and during this time the Earth moves in orbit for 8 minutes. * 60 sec. * 30 km/s = 14 400 km. Not to mention the enormous degree of radio signal scattering over distances of tens of millions of kilometers or several light minutes.

(https://i.ibb.co/zF1spMX/pt2.gif)
(animation of the movement of STEREO spacecrafts around the Sun)

There is a photo animation on the web that shows a solar flare in the direction of one of these satellites. The STEREO Ahead spacecraft supposedly moves along the Earth's orbit, that is, at the same distance from the Sun as the Earth. This is an animation of STEREO A photos from July 23, 2012.

(https://i.ibb.co/QKNxyHY/pt3.gif)

The solar flare flew exactly in the direction of STEREO A. It began at almost exactly 03:00 (UTC), and the first visible particles of coronal matter (white ripples in the animation) flew to STEREO A at about 07:00 (UTC). If the distance from the Sun to the Earth's orbit (on which the STEREO spacecraft are located) were 150,000,000 km, as is officially believed, then the speed of coronal material particles would be 150,000,000 km. / 4 hours / 60 minutes / 60 seconds = about 10,000 km / s. - this is 3% of the speed of light, which is hardly physically possible.

The solar wind is a stream of ionized particles (mainly helium-hydrogen plasma) flowing out from the solar corona at a speed of 300-1200 km/s into the surrounding space.

In addition, it is generally known that the flow of coronal matter from a solar flare reaches the Earth's orbit (in which the STEREO spacecraft are supposedly located) in an average of 150,000,000 km. / 750 km / s / 60 sec. / 60 min. / 24 hours = ~ 2.5 - 3 days. But in fact, the animation of the photos turns out to be 07:00 (UTC) - 03:00 (UTC) = 4 hours. Looks like it turns out this way, because STEREO spacecrafts are located on the orbit of Venus (around the Sun), and SOHO spacecraft is located in common center of mass between the Earth and the Sun in the Solar System (Universe) with approximately the same parameters as in the schematic image below.

(https://i.ibb.co/BK2xRn5/ume.jpg)
(ProtoEarth, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars; common center of mass between Earth and Sun; distance to the Moon is about 100 000 km., distance to the Sun is about 300 000 km.; Oort Cloud is the border of the Universe where all the "stars" and "galaxies" located; the diameter of the Universe does not exceed one light minute)

The rotation of the Earth and the Sun, as two commensurate objects, around a common center of mass, is difficult to describe in words and to draw schematically - therefore, I end the article with a corresponding animation, in which the size ratios are close to reality (the Earth is larger, the Sun is smaller).

I honestly haven't seen that section. I just scrolled the section till I saw "Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology" and didn't scrolled below it. This is my fault for my carelessness. I apologize and please move my two topics to a more appropriate section of this forum: "New Theories", please.

Can do if the assertions made are accompanied by evidence. You've a reputation for not providing such, hence this forum seems to be the appropriate classification.

The topic is already under discussion on other sites under various categories of 'speculations'. Continue the discussion there if you will.

Dear Halc, these two my topics are deleted from three forums: space.com, livescience.com and physicsforums.com. These two my topics are only on scienceforums.net but they are both closed there now. That's my falut that I didnt scroll down your forum lower and didn't notice the propper section for my topics "New Theories". Please forgive me my carelessness and move these two my topics to the section "New Theories". There is logic and argumentation in my suggestions, they are theories, or at least hypothesis. I promise to be more attentive and consistent and not violate the rules of your forum. Is it so hard for you to do . . . please.

I did not post this information in the "Ask a question" section, because it is impossible to add photos there, without which the questions would be incomprehensible.

1) First question.

It is comet NEOWISE on both STEREOs and SOHOs photos. Here is a link to the article with confirmation of this fact: The tale of a comet's tail http://www.stce.be/news/489/welcome.html But how is it possible considering the SOHOs and STEREOs  interposition (location in space) an their fields of view?

(https://i.ibb.co/3Rg09Kh/neowise.jpg)

(https://i.ibb.co/yBkF0RZ/neowise2.gif) (https://i.ibb.co/HDPTVjF/neowise3.gif)

2) Second question.

Why there is no Moon near the Earth on the STEREOs photos? Considering that Mercury is clearly visible in the same photos, the Moon should be seen at least as a bright bulge on the side of the Earth. The Moon cannot completely merge with the Earth into one round point. Diameters for better representation of ratios: Mercury - 4.8; Moon - 3.5; Earth - 12.7.

(https://i.ibb.co/XY2RCzP/evidence2.jpg)

How is it possible that there is a Moon near the Earth on MESSENGERs photos, but no Moon near the Earth on STEREOs photos?

Because of: 1) the ratio Earth - 12.7, Moon - 3.5; 2) The distance between Earth and Moon is 384 000 kilometers.
Why couldn't the moon be "hidden" behind the Earth?
Photo animation for 8 days, during which the Moon cannot hide behind the Earth or be all this time in front of the Earth.

I don't know how the images are generated, but they do not appear to be photos.  A stereoscopic sensory system generates a 3D maps of a region, not a photo, which would only be 2D.
It is possible that the image is generated as a 2D slice of that 3D map along the orbital plane.  It may be that the moon is well outside that plane, and being so close, it not in the cross section at all.

My argument does not explain the funny curved part that seems to intersect the sun, and the blank 'shadow' region off to the right, nor the fact that Venus seems to track almost straight toward's Earth during the 1-week animation.  Also, Mars is portrayed as being inside the orbit of Earth, which implies more of a point-of view choice (from well to the side, but again in the orbital plane) from which the 2D image is created from the 3D map.  The image point of view might have been chosen in this case to put the comet in the cross section generated.

Just some thoughts. As I said, I don't know how the images are generated from the data gathered by the STEREO probes.

STEREO HI-1 and HI-2 - Heliospheric Imagers - are simple visible light cameras placed inside deep optical baffles.

A heliospheric imager is a wide-field camera that is designed to image the solar wind in interplanetary space, far from the Sun itself. The solar wind is composed of plasma and contains both ions and free electrons. The electrons, in particular, scatter incident sunlight via Thomson scattering, and clouds of plasma can therefore be photographed using visible light. Heliospheric imagers are simple in principle - they are simple visible light cameras placed inside deep optical baffles.

But just looking at the pictures makes it clear that we are not seeing a simple photograph, are we?
The images are obviously processed and , since we don't know what processing has been done, we can't really comment on what might have happened.

But. if the Moon wasn't there, and it should have been, don't you think the scientists on the project would have noticed?

Since STEREO images are photos - not 2D slices of 3D map of region, post-processing can only be in the form of color filters, and can in no way affect objects (adding or erasing) and their relative position to each other.

Of course they are aware of this, and I'm sure they have a "well-reasoned" "explanation" for this discrepancy. But the most important thing - scientists on the project - is a narrow circle of well-paid people from society, in which, moreover, there should be information of different levels of access and a nondisclosure subscription with very harsh sanctions for violation.

They are not photos, since the cameras are nowhere near the point of view presented (which is something like Jupiter, depending on where in its orbit that is).

I notice that the image you post is about 300 pixels across, and with Earth in the center, perhaps 150-180 pixels between Earth and the sun.  Earth, Venus, Mercury, and even the comet seem to consume several pixels, meaning the image does not have these object focused down to their actual size.

The moon is a light-second away and the sun is about 500 seconds away, making the moon about a 3rd of a pixel from Earth.  That means it isn't in the picture because it's too close to distinguish the two at the resolution presented.

I have a better thing than reference - actual evidence for those times.
Look attentively. I slowed down the animation. White ripples (solar plasma particles) appeared (hit the camera) no longer than 6 hours after the beginning of the solar flare.

Complete animation of this CME can be found only as gif animation in Google pictures section.

Here is another comparison of two data sources with contradiction.
Solar plasma (white ripples) reaches SOHO in several hours after start of solar burst, but schematical animation shows that solar plasma reaches Earth (and SOHO) only in about 3 days after start of solar burst.

First of all, how do you know those ripples are particles hitting the camera? Second of all, you should know that not all components of a coronal mass ejection are going to travel at the same velocity. According to the earlier link I posted, that event was accompanied by protons with an energy above 10 mega-electronvolts. Kinetic energy calculations show that a proton with such a kinetic energy level would be traveling above 14% the speed of light https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/relativistic-ke (the proton's rest mass is 1,836 electron rest masses, if you wish to use this calculator yourself). So those particular protons could have made the journey in less than an hour, easily capable of reaching the telescope within your stated time frame. So the bulk of the flare could indeed have taken 18.5 hours while the most energetic of the protons made it to the telescope in a fraction of that time.

Official sources have lack 12 hours of frames of this animation - that is very suspicious.

So now you're a conspiracy theorist?

There is something very strange about the lighting on the Perseverance landing video.

1) Reflection of the “Sun” on the surface of “Mars” as if from a searchlight (too small bright spot). The height of the device at the time of this reflection hitting the frame is 9.5 km.

2) This reflection should be exactly under the Sun, that is, perpendicular to the surface of Mars, that is, point exactly at noon, but judging by the smooth movement of the shadow (on the separating heat shield) in the northeast direction (diagonally at 13:30), there is some kind of contradiction with lighting. The movement of the shadow over the heat shield indicates the position of the Sun in the southwest direction (19:30 hours) relative to the vehicle. The reflection of the "Sun" on the surface of "Mars" indicates the position of the Sun in an easterly direction (15:00 hours) relative to the vehicle.

Here is a more complete video.

I see that the direction of maximum reflection on the heat shield seems to rotate as the heat shield falls further ahead of the parachute payload.
- This suggests that the reflection will move, depending on how the heat shield wobbles

@AlexandrKushnirtshuk you may look a few seconds further into the video you linked to. The heat shield is probably just wobbling after being dropped? That makes the heat shield look oval from the camera's point of view and reflections are moving.

There is another interesting question. Sorry for the many images, but they are all necessary.
Is it possible to explain such a small size sun reflection on the surface of Mars? Yellow dot on the image below is the size of Jezero Crater on Mars. Bright spot on the animation below is reflection of the Sun (from Perseverance landing video), which located inside the Jezero Crater and makes up no more than 10% of the area of Jezero Crater. Last (third) image shows how sun reflection spot looks like on Earth's surface.

The heat shield is curved, the sun is shining onto the heat shield from beneath. The shadow and glare are in the right place. If the glare was beneath and the shadow above then I would say impossible when looking into the concave shape. If it was convex the scenario you have outlined would be impossible.

If it was flat parallel surface you would not see any glare at all due to reflection, so to call this suspicious is not creditable. The angle of the sun versus the slope of the heat shield do not appear equal, the distance and angle from the sun to the heat shield versus the distance and angle from the camera to the heat shield are not equal, yet you expect the point of observation to be equal. If everything that light hit gave glare like it was a flat perpendicular surface life would be fairly difficult.

From the image you posted from the vehicle assembly room, the heat shield is a fairly shallow dish. It doesn't take much of a wobble to change the angle of reflection significantly.

(third) image shows how sun reflection spot looks like on Earth's surface
The images of Earth show the Sun reflecting off areas of ocean. While not a mirror-smooth surface, the ocean does have a component of specular reflection (like a mirror).

There is no liquid surface water on Mars, so the surface is dominated by a dusty, rocky surface, which leads to a more diffuse reflection.

According to my hypothetical assumptions, the diameter of Mars is about 15-20 km.
Moon: 500-700 km. Sun: 2500-3000 km. Earth and Sun rotating around common center of mass approximately like on animation below. Mercury and Venus are direct satellites of the Sun, to what at least 3 following facts indirectly indicate:
 - Only Mercury and Venus have no satellites.
 - Only Mercury and Venus have incommensurably large periods of rotation around their axes 58 and 243 days, respectively (Earth, Mars – 1 day; Jupiter, Saturn – 9, 10 hours; Uranus, Neptune – 17, 16 hours).
 - In each lower conjunction (that is, during the closest approach to the Earth) Venus is facing the Earth by the same side.

I suppose that's true. If another moderator thinks it needs to be moved yet again, they can handle it.

After using a couple of online calculators, I calculated what Mar's density would need to be in order for it to have a surface gravity of 0.38 G and a diameter of 20 kilometers: https://planetcalc.com/1758/ and https://www.vcalc.com/wiki/KurtHeckman/Sphere+-+Density

The result is that it would need to have a density of about 1,337 grams per cubic centimeter, which is 59 times more dense than osmium. It's completely infeasible.

What is dark matter?
An incomprehensible substance evenly scattered throughout the Universe, or is it the border of the Universe behind the Oort cloud, from where the sunlight is simply not reflected?

The distance to the most distant galaxy is supposedly 13.4 billion light years. This means that the light travels all the distance without hindrance. This is supposedly a straight line, along which there are no objects: stars, galaxies, nebulae, dust, gas - nothing blocking light in a straight line 13.4 billion light years long ...

Quote from: OP

It is good that you understand that long-period comets on an elliptical orbit come from the Oort cloud, and so it physically exists (ie it is not outside the universe).
- Long ago, astronomers were able to measure the distance to the nearer stars, using the technique of parallax as the Earth orbits the Sun. The nearest star is about 4 light years away, well beyond the Oort Cloud.
- The recent passage of Oumuamua (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CA%BBOumuamua) through the Solar System followed a hyperbolic path, so it came from well outside the Oort Cloud.
- The Gaia spacecraft is in the process of using parallax to measure the distance to about a billion stars in our galaxy. It has measured the distance (and velocity) of the nearby Sculptor Dwarf galaxy at 272,000 light years, which is far beyond the Oort Cloud.
- The Gaia spacecraft is also measuring the position of some stars in the Andromeda Galaxy, which is much farther again.
- By methods like Cepheid variables and supernova brightness, the distance to even farther objects have been estimated.

Conclusion: There are real objects in our universe far beyond the Oort Cloud
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_(spacecraft)#Significant_results

Quote from: OP

You don't seem to understand the concept of intergalactic space being a very good vacuum
- And observations suggesting that the galaxy clusters are arranged as a thin web bordering large voids containing an extremely good vacuum.
- Even if 90% of the photons from a distant quasar strike an atom on the way, and are absorbed/deflected, that is still enough photons to detect the quasar on a photograph, and to capture its spectrum, and measure its red shift

Your model is wrong, at least in part, because it gets sizes and distances incredibly wrong. Your argument for that is flawed because you make an incorrect analogy about light. The physics of light is rather different than the physics of waves in water. An individual photon would have no problem traversing empty space because there is nothing in the way for it to transfer its energy to (unlike the molecules in a wave of water).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_incredulity

Bored Chemist is not using the argument from incredulity. He's saying that it can't be true because all of the evidence we have points to your idea being wrong.

It sure would be nice if you actually stuck around for a while and debated with us about the specific points of your idea.

It's a vacuum: there is nothing to "overcome".

The existence of a medium with absolutely zero resistance is impossible, a priori impossible.

First of all, whether a vacuum is a "medium" is debatable. Secondly, we do know of mediums with zero resistance (superfluid helium, for example).

Mars' diameter is about 15-20 km. according my assumptions.

It sure would be nice if you actually stuck around for a while and debated with us about the specific points of your idea.

My several other thoughts to the important issues directly related to the structure of the Universe.

1) The actual (real) structure of the Universe is the key to a correct understanding of the origin of life, its nature, as well as the essence of paranormal phenomena, UFOs, so called "aliens", and the key to the correct worldview.

2) There are no extraterrestrials (in the sense that they are not from other planets - not EXTRAterrestrials ). I think that the Earth is the only planet in the Universe. The Sun is the only star in the Universe. "Aliens" (all their alliances and races) are, roughly speaking, angels / demons. Entities that somehow, for some time manage to avoid incarnation. Their influence on humanity is insignificant on the physical plane (paranormal or subtle phenomena interact very weakly with matter), but enormous in terms of mental (religion, worldview). Most of all, they affect the mind through fear of death and ignorance. "Aliens" is a psychophysical, subtle, noosphere phenomenon.

3) Is the Universe local?
Yes. Moreover, it is absolutely local. This comes from the name itself. If besides the Universe there is something else, then without this something it is no longer the Universe. Within the framework of the Universe, the existence of something local is impossible, that is, absolutely without any interaction with the rest of the Universe. In short, this supposedly difficult question, in fact, is a priori very unambiguous: the Universe is absolutely local, within the Universe, conditionally (relatively) local phenomena or regions (space) can exist, for example: a soundproof room, an airtight container, water-air, etc. .P. impermeable containers. But it is impossible to create an absolutely impenetrable space within the framework of the Universe itself for absolutely nothing. In short, the Universe is an absolutely local space, within which the existence of any other absolutely local space is impossible.

4) Is it possible to know the future?
No. Knowledge of the future itself influences (changes) this future. Example. You find out that something bad is about to happen, even if you try to do nothing to fix it or avoid it, then at least your behavior and thinking will change. In short, it is impossible to know the future, because knowledge of the future itself affects the future, that is, changes it. There are certain trends and expectations of the future, but nobody knows 100% of it, although it is likely that it can be 100% predetermined.

5) The only infinite parameter (in the full sense) in the Universe is time. Energy and matter, like consciousness and space, are limited, but indestructible ... in short, here you need to understand well the Law of Conservation of Energy and its consequences, because this is essentially one of the fundamental properties of the Universe: Nothing appears from nowhere, and does not disappear into anywhere, but is only redistributed and / or transformed from one state to another.

6) Religious worldviews.
The first and most important thing to understand is that the existence of 100% truth, or 100% lies, is impossible. Abrahamic religions (Islam, Christianity, Judaism. . .) - sinners in hell, the righteous in heaven - game over - nonsense. But this does not mean that these religions are completely false.Hinduism and Buddhism, like probably Taoism and Shintoism with the concepts of karma and rebirth, in general, are closer to reality. But this does not mean that these religions are absolutely true.That is, with regard to religion and worldview, it is important to understand to what extent this or that question or phenomenon corresponds to reality, is logical, plausible, and viable.

That's nice and all, but I'd like to focus on what you've already posted. The resistance of a vacuum, for one. What do you think there is in a vacuum that would drain a photon's energy as it travels?

Overcoming the distance without spending energy (that is, with zero energy expenses) is impossible a priori.
or, we can look at Newton's first law which says "an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a net external force. ".

Are you saying Newton was wrong about that?
Probably Newton did not take into account all possible reaction forces (and/or the way that forces interact). Perhaps some negligible, but still not zero forces, which he neglected/disregarded.

Gravity. Gravitational field. The total interaction (the sum) of the gravitational fields of the objects in the Universe.

Gravity. And this force is everywhere in the vacuum. Gravity makes cosmic medium to have not zero resistance.

Gravitational fields in the space between star systems are pretty weak. There are three main things that they would do to photons: red shift them (if the photons are traveling against the field), blue shift them (if they are traveling into the field) or deflect them (if they are traveling in any direction perpendicular to the source). Those gravitational fields might modify the photon energy to some extent, but they won't absorb the photons. They are in no way a hindrance to photons traveling through space (unless they travel into black holes or whatever).

First of all, whether a vacuum is a "medium" is debatable. Secondly, we do know of mediums with zero resistance (superfluid helium, for example).
Are you 100% sure that superfluid helium have zero resistance, but not any negligible (and/or disregarded) resistance value, but still not absolutely zero resistance?

Given that experiments can't measure arbitrarily small values, it can't be ruled out completely. I am not aware of any measurements of such resistance, however.

Gravity. And this force is everywhere in the vacuum. Gravity makes cosmic medium to have not zero resistance.
On average there is as much stuff in front pulling forwards as there is stuff behind you pulling back.
So, the net effect is zero.

No, I didn't. Any gravity produced by dark matter or dark energy (if it even produces gravity) would affect photons just as I described. The one and only place that a photon can be red shifted out of existence due to gravity is a black hole.

Then I don't want to see you promoting your model here any longer. This is a discussion board. Take a look at the rules: https://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/index.php?topic=8535.0

Quote
The site is not for evangelising your own pet theory.  It is perfectly acceptable that you should post your own theory up for discussion, but if all you want to do is promote your own idea and are not inviting critical debate about it, then that will not be acceptable.

You have been on the verge of doing exactly this for many of the threads you have started. You make a starting post and then give few if any replies when other members try to correct your misunderstandings. Well, I'm not letting you do that any longer. From now on, if you decide to make any more threads about your model, you will discuss it and reply to objections against it. If you do not, this will be interpreted as "evangelising your own pet theory", the thread will subsequently be locked and you will be given a warning about it. If you do this too much, you will be seen as a spammer and be subject to the appropriate moderator action.

So either keep it a discussion or don't talk about it at all. This is not the place for you to advertise.

The duration of the total phase of a solar eclipse is 7.5 minutes. The duration of the total phase of the lunar eclipse is 108 minutes. The diameter of the Earth is 12,742 km. Therefore, the diameter of the Moon is 12 742 * (7.5 / 108) = 885 km.

(https://i.ibb.co/fqyvNW9/sunmoon.jpg)

The coincidence of the angular sizes of the Sun and the Moon indicates that their sizes are proportional to the distances relative to the Earth. In addition, the Sun and the Moon have the same axial rotation periods - 27 days. In the earth's mantle there are two huge diametrically opposite formations (one is larger, the other is smaller), both are displaced to the east. On the surface of the Earth there are two huge diametrically opposite tracks (one larger, the other smaller), both shifted to the east. The ratio of the sizes of the Sun and the Moon is approximately 3 to 1.

Remember when you said this? There are still issues that we brought up about your model that haven't been resolved. So let's focus on that before you start a discussion about something else.

You still need to provide a citation that science is about 100% knowledge of whether something is true or false. You also have not addressed the fact that the gravitational fields of stars, galaxies, planets and so on cannot stop photons. The most they can do is red shift them, not dissipate them into nothingness.

Quotes from Google.
1) The Sun rotates on its axis once in about 27 days.
2) The moon orbits the Earth once every 27.322 days. It also takes approximately 27 days for the moon to rotate once on its axis.
3) A total lunar eclipse can last as long as an hour and three-quarters, but for a solar total eclipse maximum duration of totality is only 71/2 minutes.

Diameter of the Moon is 12 742 * (7.5 / 108) = 885 km, and it exactly matches the size of the track between South America and Antarctica in the image above.

This is not a theory and not a topic for "That CAN'T be true!" section.
This is a very weird fact and my version of explanation of that fact.

Here is a link to a video with a selection of episodes in which astronauts were hanging on ropes, and an animation of one of the episodes.
Hidden ropes on ISS. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyL7eB6ALuo)
(https://i.ibb.co/bFLPFtw/ezgif-6-f5934343f1b1.gif)

For some reason, astronauts on the ISS are hanging on ropes - this is a fact. The ropes are hidden by video editing, that is, they tried to hide it - this is a fact. Why would they?

My version. I think that there are no people on space stations due to the likelihood of being destroyed by a meteorite or space debris at any time. Such a probability, although negligible, but given the complete absence of any protection against destruction by a meteorite, it makes no sense, both the stay of people in the earth's orbit, and the colonization of space (Moon, Mars ...) in principle.

There are ropes on the ISS, so that astronauts can move around on the outside, without floating away into space.

But just playing a short video segment backwards and forwards does not demonstrate that there are ropes that have been removed by editing.
- It shows that there is cyclic motion that has been added by editing

Anyway, astronauts posing for a video would try to maintain themselves in the center of the image, rather than drifting out of the field of view...

Space is almost empty, but despite this, thousands of meteors burn out in the earth's atmosphere in just one night? None of the rovers recorded a single meteorite fall on the surface of Mars, given that its official size is not much smaller than that of Earth, and the atmosphere is much thinner than Earth's. That is, much more meteorites should reach the surface of Mars, including objects of such sizes that burn up in the earth's atmosphere.

That's the difference between a meteor (that burns up completely - very common) and a meteorite (that makes landfall - very rare).

How about meteorites hitting the exposed parts of the satellite? How about wear and tear of whipple shield?
Happens all the time, which is why nothing lasts for ever. There is a finite probability of an airplane colliding with a meteor,  a bird, or even another plane, but at any moment there are on average 10,000 planes in the sky because flight is not considered senseless or impractical.

None of the rovers were equipped with a seismometer - but they were equipped with motors and noisy nuclear heating systems that would have made seismic detection impossible.

But the Insight Mars Lander was, and it waited 128 days for the first rumble.
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/first-marsquake-detected-nasa-mars-insight-lander-space

The atmosphere of Mars at ground level has about 1% the pressure of Earth's atmosphere at ground level.
Most meteors approaching Earth burn up at an altitude of around 100km, where the pressure is about 0.2% of Earth's surface pressure. So most meteors would also burn up in Mars' atmosphere. One would have to land pretty close to produce measurable seismic waves.

However, the Moon has no atmosphere, and Moonquakes have been detected from impacting space debris.
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_seismology#Moonquakes

Quote from: AlexandrKushnirtshuk
Whipple shields cover an insignificant area of the spacecraft.
The Wikipedia article mentions that there are over 100 different configurations of Whipple Shield on the ISS.
For a space station that is composed of around 30 modules (plus lots of solar panels), that sounds like they have tried to cover almost all of the ISS with Whipple shields.
It's true that you can't cover the front of a solar cell with an aluminium Whipple shield - but it is possible to build in redundancy, so that if one solar cell fails (eg due to a micrometeorite impact), it is switched out of circuit.

That's why it is called "space" - it is mostly empty.
Space is almost empty, but despite this, thousands of meteors burn out in the earth's atmosphere in just one night? None of the rovers recorded a single meteorite fall on the surface of Mars, given that its official size is not much smaller than that of Earth, and the atmosphere is much thinner than Earth's. That is, much more meteorites should reach the surface of Mars, including objects of such sizes that burn up in the earth's atmosphere.
Nope. The Earth is a meteorite magnet. The Earth is much bigger than Mars or space probes and so its gravitational field attracts the meteorites so very much more and it gets many more impacts. Because of that the ISS is smothered in Whipple shields, and they have to occasionally go around and replace ones that have been too badly damaged.

The astronauts regularly hear impacts pinging off the hull in fact, both natural as well as man made space debris.

Surface area of Earth = 5e8 sq km.  If only 1/2 of that is hit by meteors in a night, and 10,000 meteor hit per night, then we are looking at 1 meteor per every 2.5e 4 sg km   (an area ~ 160km x 160km)  That's spread out pretty thinly.  Put another way, it would take 68.5 years of steady nightly bombardment to bring the average up to 1 meteor per sq km.
"Thousands of meteors per night" sounds like a huge number, but it is pretty insignificant when compared to the size of the the target they are spread across.
Plus, the vast of majority of those meteors are particles the size of a grain of and or smaller.  Even if most of them reached the ground on Mars, you'd practically have to be on top of the impact point to notice it( since the Escape velocity of Mars is a ~45% of Earth's, the average impact of those micrometeorites would have ~1/5 the energy) .   Your grasp of the relative numbers involved is way off.

There is a photo animation on the web that shows a solar flare in the direction of one of these satellites. The STEREO Ahead spacecraft supposedly moves along the Earth's orbit, that is, at the same distance from the Sun as the Earth. This is an animation of STEREO A photos from July 23, 2012.

(https://i.ibb.co/tMcpxgv/ezgif-7-ea9b6fb93154.gif)

The solar flare flew exactly in the direction of STEREO A. It began at almost exactly 03:00 (UTC), and the first visible particles of coronal matter (white ripples in the animation) flew to STEREO A at about 07:00 (UTC). If the distance from the Sun to the Earth's orbit (on which the STEREO spacecraft are located) were 150,000,000 km, as is officially believed, then the speed of coronal material particles would be 150,000,000 km. / 4 hours / 60 minutes / 60 seconds = about 10,000 km / s. - this is 3% of the speed of light, which is hardly physically possible.

The solar wind is a stream of ionized particles (mainly helium-hydrogen plasma) flowing out from the solar corona at a speed of 300-1200 km/s into the surrounding space.

In addition, it is generally known that the flow of coronal matter from a solar flare reaches the Earth's orbit (in which the STEREO spacecraft are supposedly located) in an average of 150,000,000 km. / 750 km / s / 60 sec. / 60 min. / 24 hours = ~ 2.5 - 3 days. But in fact, the animation of the photos turns out to be 07:00 (UTC) - 03:00 (UTC) = 4 hours. Looks like it turns out this way, because STEREO spacecrafts are located on the orbit of Venus (around the Sun), and SOHO spacecraft is located in common center of mass between the Earth and the Sun in the Solar System (Universe) with approximately the same parameters as in the schematic image below.

Math 2

The duration of an eclipse is directly proportional to the size of the object, all other things being equal (distance and speed). The duration of the total phase of a solar eclipse is 7.5 minutes (the Moon completely covers the Sun for 7.5 minutes). The duration of the total phase of the lunar eclipse is 108 minutes (the Earth completely covers the Sun for 108 minutes). With the same distance between the Moon and the Earth. At the same speed of the Moon (the orbit of the Moon moves with the speed of the Earth). The diameter of the Earth is 12,742 km. Therefore, the diameter of the Moon can be calculated using the following formula: 12 742 * (7.5 / 108) = 885 km. The official diameter of the Moon is 3,474 km. Moreover, the result of calculating the diameter of the Moon quite accurately coincides with the size of the track between South America and Antarctica (875 km. + - 25 km.), which confirms the calculation and minimizes probability of a simple coincidence.

Two traces on the surface of the Earth (from Sun and Moon).

2) Both have an eastern direction.
3) Both have an eastern position relative to their PreContinents (PreAmerica and PreEurasia).
4) Both have diametrically opposite locations on the surface of the Earth.

In the image below, the sizes of the traces are almost the same due to the projection of the surface of the sphere onto a rectangular plane.

Moreover, in addition to the correlation with 10-13 years solar cycles on the Betelgeuse brightness graph, there are clear 1 year cycles of brightness fluctuations also visible. Based on this fact, I assume that Betelgeuse, like all other "stars" and "galaxies", are located in the Oort Cloud and reflect sunlight.

Annual cyclicity of Betelgeuse brightness fluctuations.

The annual cyclical fluctuations in the brightness of Betelgeuse can be explained by the suggestion that in December the Sun is farther from it, and in June - is closer to it (considering the rotation of the Earth and the Sun as in the animation below, the Earth is larger). Betelgeuse is located in the constellation Orion. Sun in Orion (Orion behind Sun) is in June.

Theoretical background: the nature of light and the size of the Universe.

A photon has energy and momentum (weight) but no mass. It is obvious that light is vibrations of some medium (ether). This environment cannot but have resistance, damping or absorbing light vibrations with time and distance. I will describe the essence in simple words so as not to complicate and not drag out the explanation.

1) Water waves.
They spread longer (in time) than sound, but at a shorter distance (at a lower speed). Distribution medium: water.

2) Sound waves.
The lifetime of sound waves is shorter than that of water waves, but the speed (and distance) is greater. Distribution medium: atmosphere (gas).

3) Light waves.
By analogy, the lifetime of light waves should be much shorter than the lifetime of sound waves, but since the speed of light is about 300,000 km/s - the propagation distance is greater. Distribution medium: aether.

(https://i.ibb.co/LJVDKqn/pt.jpg)
(a schematic representation of a photon - a conventional unit of oscillation (wave) of the aether) Image text translation: The movement of one light wave (photon) from the source to complete attenuation and / or absorption by the medium (aether).

At the beginning of the 20th century, scientists rejected the completely plausible hypothesis of the Tired Light (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tired_light), began to carry out fortune-telling by redshifts of the spectrum (like on coffee grounds, only by the spectral emissions), and billions of light years, black holes, dark energies, and distant-distant galaxies rushed.

Light years?

A photon cannot exist not only for years, but even for minutes. Example. Standing in the lake. You throw a stone. First you hear the sound, later the waves come. Waves on water, sound waves in a gaseous medium and light waves in ether are phenomena of the same nature, but of different orders due to the environment. If waves on water “live” for minutes, and sound waves in a gaseous medium “live” for seconds, then light waves in their medium (ether) “live” for a fraction of a second. All this depends on the power of the source of wave oscillations, so it can be assumed that light waves from the Sun can exist for several seconds, but not more (not minutes, and even less years).

Even if in the space environment (vacuum) there is no resistance, there is no heat exchange, then the distance is overcome (volume expansion with distance), which cannot occur absolutely without energy consumption. In addition, the space of the cosmic vacuum cannot be absolutely empty. There cannot but be certain, albeit minimal, resistance and heat transfer. Light years and 8 light minutes from Sun to Earth are physically impossible.

Again. Attentively. This is very important to understand. Overcoming distance in any environment, that is, regardless of the environment, cannot occur without energy consumption (or with zero energy consumption). Since a photon has a very low energy charge, and a very high speed of movement, and no medium (including space) can have absolutely zero resistance, then, accordingly, the lifetime (life) of one photon (wave oscillation of the medium - ether) is very short, not exceeding at least one minute.

Definition*. The lifetime of a unit of wave oscillations (one wave) is inversely proportional to the speed of their propagation (or directly proportional to the inertia of the medium) and is directly proportional to the power of their source.
* - this definition is correct with or without the aether.

From the above, we can conclude that gravity acts on light, that is, it is a resistance factor for light waves.
Certain amount of gravity is present at any point of space. Gravity affects light, and therefore slows it down (or rather gradually absorbs it) as the distance passed by the light increases.

The obvious reason why that makes no sense is that there's essentially just as much universe in front of the light pulling ti forward as there is behind it pulling it back.

This is subject to the infinity of the Universe in terms of space. It is difficult to prove, but it is much more probable, that the Universe is finite in terms of space. Therefore, the effect of gravity resistance for light waves will be greater than the opposite (to resistance) gravitational effect. Gravity may well be considered a resistance factor that absorbs light waves as the distance they travel increases.

In terms of time the Universe is infinite. It follows from the Law of Conservation of Energy - it's some kind of (like the third) Law of Thermodynamics: Nothing appears out of nowhere, and does not disappear into anywhere, but only redistributes and/or transforms from one state to another. From the same law it follows that the amount of matter/energy in the Universe is limited, that is, finite. Therefore, it is most likely that the Universe is finite in terms of space.

Is the Universe local?
Yes. Moreover, it is absolutely local. This comes from the name itself. If besides the Universe there is something else, then without this something it is no longer the Universe. Within the framework of the Universe, the existence of something local is impossible, that is, absolutely without any interaction with the rest of the Universe. In short, this supposedly difficult question, in fact, is a priori very unambiguous: the Universe is absolutely local, within the Universe, conditionally (relatively) local phenomena or regions (space) can exist, for example: a soundproof room, an airtight container, water-air, etc. impermeable containers. But it is impossible to create an absolutely impenetrable space within the framework of the Universe itself for absolutely nothing. In short, the Universe is an absolutely local space, within which the existence of any other absolutely local space is impossible.

But most of the universe is "far away" and the gravitational effect falls with the square of the distance, so anything that is far enough away will make no discernible difference.

The gravity of large objects (like the Sun) bends light.

But it doesn't stop light. That's important.

Gravity affects light, and therefore slows it down

No, it doesn't. It causes light to lose energy and increase its wavelength, but the speed of light is unaffected.

(or rather gradually absorbs it)

No, it doesn't. The amount of energy a photon loses as it travels up against a gravitational gradient is finite: it never goes to zero.

Gravity may well be considered a resistance factor that absorbs light waves

No, gravity does not absorb light waves (except in the case of a black hole).

The photon loses energy overcoming gravity. There is a certain amount of gravity at every point in space. Hence the photon loses energy with distance. Since the energy of a photon is not unlimited, the distance covered by a photon is also quite limited. As well as the lifetime of a photon. Unlikely to exceed 1-2 light minutes.

Spectrum redshift = gravitational constant * distance covered by light.

A photon loses energy "overcoming" gravity, In other words when climbing out of a gravity well. But it gains energy falling into a gravity well.   Light leaving the surface of a planet will red-shift as it climbs away from the planet.  But another observer, at some distance away on another planet sitting in an equally deep gravity well will see no red-shift in the light coming from the first planet, because the light blue-shifted as it fell into his gravity well.  The strength of each planet's gravity makes no difference, neither does the distance between them. All that matters is the relative depth of the gravity wells for source and observer.

The photon loses energy overcoming gravity.

Yes, but that energy never goes to zero. You seem to like ignoring that fact. If you disagree with me, then show me some math that supports your argument. How much redshift should a photon undergo when travelling through 1 kilometer of space? 1 million kilometers? 1 light-year? If you want to be taken seriously, you're going to have to be able to show us that the math supports your assertion. Go look up the gravitational red shift equation. That would be a good place to start.

Spectrum redshift = gravitational constant * distance covered by light.

If this equation was correct, then photons travelling two kilometers would be twice as red-shifted as photons traveling one kilometer. Current theory says that photons don't experience any red-shift at all if they travel between two stationary sources along a constant altitude. So your equation and the contemporary equation predict different results. Those results can be tested by current technology. Given the fact that radars and radios are used constantly throughout the world and no one has ever reported them violating current physics models, then obviously the current model is the one supported by the evidence.

By the way, your equation doesn't predict that a photon's energy should ever go to zero anyway. Travelling one million times the distance would result in a million-fold red-shift. One million times less energy is still not zero, though.

As well as the lifetime of a photon. Unlikely to exceed 1-2 light minutes.

Please show the math you used to arrive at this number. Math specifically, please. Not flawed analogies.

My model of the Universe is much more logical, more reliable and more consistent with reality than the official one.

No, it's not. Your model relies on fallacious assumptions (like the idea that gravity in interstellar space can stop photons). It also contradicts direct measurements (like the sizes of planets) and apparently relies on conspiracy theories (since you claim that interplanetary spacecraft aren't feasible because you say they'd be destroyed by asteroid impacts...).

In the equation of the gravitational redshift of the spectrum, there is a gravitational constant (G), which is difficult to measure with high accuracy, which is already a flaw in this equation, not to mention its theoretical justification.

In wave processes occurring in different media (water, gas, space), there is a clear pattern of reducing the lifetime of the wave process as the speed increases. Water waves are slow but durable. Sound waves are faster but less durable. Light waves are much faster than sound waves, therefore their lifetime should be proportionally (much) shorter than the lifetime of sound waves.

My definition has logical priority over the gravitational redshift equation.

It is known to 4 digits.

Look closely at the photo (500 days in space). The astronaut is neatly shaved, trimmed, and even has a professional manicure. Who's lying about space?

which is difficult to measure with high accuracy

Difficult or not, it has been measured to high accuracy.

In wave processes occurring in different media (water, gas, space), there is a clear pattern of reducing the lifetime of the wave process as the speed increases. Water waves are slow but durable. Sound waves are faster but less durable. Light waves are much faster than sound waves, therefore their lifetime should be proportionally (much) shorter than the lifetime of sound waves.

That's a flawed analogy and the premises aren't even correct. Even water waves and sounds waves don't just disappear. They just become weaker with distance until they are too subtle to detect. The louder the sound or the bigger the water wave, the further they can travel while still be detectable (the Krakatau eruption was so loud it could be heard hundreds of miles away). The distance a wave is detectable over is thus dependent upon the intensity of the source. The light intensity of a star is many, many orders of magnitude greater than the sound intensity of a volcanic eruption. It should be no surprise that we can still see them even though they are light-years away.

My definition has logical priority over the gravitational redshift equation.

No, it doesn't.

The lifetime of a unit of wave oscillations (one wave) is inversely proportional to the speed of their propagation (or directly proportional to the inertia of the medium) and is directly proportional to the power of their source.

Sound travels at different velocities depending on the particular properties of the medium in question. That being said, can you demonstrate that faster sound waves dissipate faster than slower sound waves?

* - this definition is correct with or without the aether.

Light doesn't travel through a medium, so your definition about a medium's inertia doesn't apply to it.

Are you going to address that fact that I showed your equation to be wrong using radar as an example? How about finally showing me the math about dangerous collisions being guaranteed in space? How about finally showing me the math that supports your claim that photons can't travel more than 3 light-minutes? Stop dodging.

I claimed that space flights are unreasonably risky due to the inevitabile possibility of destruction in a collision with a meteorite, that is, in fact, they are meaningless.

And your estimation of the risk of meteor collision is extremely overblown.
Earlier, you said that thousands of meteorites struck the Earth's atmosphere in a night.   But the Earth is  a huge target, with a cross section of 127796483 square km*.  If ten thousand meteorites hit the atmosphere in one night, that works out to an average of 1 meteorite per 12779 sq km( an area of 113 km x 113 km)  In 17 1/2 years the strikes would average out to 1 per square km. 
The ISS has a much smaller cross-section that 1 sg km, and thus a much smaller target to hit. The odds of it being hit by a meteor large enough to destroy it are exceedingly small. (the larger the meteor, the fewer there are of that size. Most are just specks of dust.)

* The cross-sectional target the Earth has is actually larger than its physical cross-section.  Earth's gravity will curve the paths of some meteors that would have missed it otherwise. Whether or not a particular meteor will be drawn into a collision course, depends bot on it trajectory and speed relative to the Earth.
This means that once you get far enough away from the Earth, the odds of meteor collision drops off a bit.

You are all so smart here, you know the equations. Maybe someone will be interested in recalculating the result of the Michelson-Morley experiment with a much smaller Earth orbit, and the speed of the Earth (approximately as in the schematic image below). Perhaps that experiment proved the existence of the aether, but was incorrectly interpreted as wrong due to the false parameters of the earth's orbit and the speed of the Earth in space.

Quote
The Experiments on the relative motion of the earth and ether have been completed and the result decidedly negative. The expected deviation of the interference fringes from the zero should have been 0.40 of a fringe – the maximum displacement was 0.02 and the average much less than 0.01 – and then not in the right place. As displacement is proportional to squares of the relative velocities it follows that if the ether does slip past the relative velocity is less than one sixth of the earth’s velocity.

This post did absolutely nothing to address my own post. Are you not actually able to support your claim that light can't travel more than three light-minutes? If so, then do it. Show us the math you used to arrive at that number. If not, then you need to admit to it.

We already know you are wrong because it takes light (in the form of radio signals) more than three minutes to get to Mars and back in order for scientists to send commands to and receive data from surface rovers.

We can independently measure the speed of the Earth by noting the change of stellar aberration as it orbits.  This value is in agreement with the value you get from dividing the size of the orbit by the time it takes to complete one orbit. 
In other words, no, it is not possible that we are using the wrong value for the size of the Earth's orbit.

The official distance from Earth to Mars ranges from 4 to 20 light minutes.
1) A huge degree of scattering of the radio signal at such a distance.
2) Transmission and reception of a signal, taking into account the movements of the Earth, Mars and the flight time of the signal from the Earth to Mars. Preemptive transmission and reception of radio signals, taking into account an incredible number of factors ... very unlikely given the official distance between Earth and Mars 4-20 light minutes.

The STEREO spacecraft have two cameras. One is directed to the Sun (frontal), the other - to the space nearby (lateral). On November 16, 2016, the following “anomaly” appeared on the animation of the STEREO A image:

This is an overlay of the Sun image from the front camera to the side camera. This is the official NASA explanation. Such an overlap could not happen by accident by itself. It is very likely that there is an algorithm for overlaying images, in which programmers mistakenly specified the wrong files. What can be covered next to the Sun in space? Earth, if the ratio of the diameters of the Earth and the Sun is ~ 3-4 to 1.

This is not a UFO, but a shutter on the STEREO side camera. The same as on the frontal one (which covers the Sun due to its strong brightness), but 3-4 times larger in diameter ... Why is there a shutter on the side camera, in the shooting area, where the sun does not get?

The Michelson-Morley experiment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson–Morley_experiment) is extremely complicated and multifactorial. As far as I understand, it does not take into account one significant factor in the official model of the Universe - the speed and direction of the Sun as part of the galaxy (that is, the speed and direction of movement of our galaxy in space).
But on the basis of my model of the Universe (https://forums.space.com/threads/new-model-of-the-universe.37494/), I assume the absence of the above-mentioned factor in reality, and different parameters of other significant factors. I do not have sufficient mathematical knowledge, so I suggest to those who are interested - to recalculate the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment, taking into account the much smaller Earth's orbit and the speed of the Earth along it. Considering the movement of the Earth and the Sun around the common center of mass as in the animation below (Earth is larger), as well as the assumption that the Oort Cloud is the boundary of the Universe with a diameter of about one light minute. The value of the experiment is enormous. Data on it should be publicly available.

You don't understand it then.
The clever bit about it is that it automatically includes that (and any other) motion.
I do not have sufficient mathematical knowledge
It shows.
recalculate the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment, taking into account the much smaller Earth's orbit and the speed of the Earth along it.
In reality (i.e. outside your hallucination) the Earth's orbit and speed are the Earth's orbit and speed.
It takes a year to go round and the radius is about 8 light minutes.

If that was wrong the moonshots would all have failed.
They didn't.

So, you are going to either set up some absurd conspiracy- for which you may get kicked off the forum- or you accept that you are wrong.

The existence of the aether may have already been proven experimentally. The point is the speed of the Earth's movement in space, which depends on the length of the Earth's orbit.

Michelson–Morley experiment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson–Morley_experiment) is a complex and extremely important experiment that has been refined and repeated since 1881. Its task is to prove the existence of a medium for the propagation of light and radio waves - aether. The main factor of this expetiment is the speed of the Earth's movement in space (the length of the Earth's orbit). The received data turns out to be much less than expected. In my model of the Universe, the length of the Earth's orbit and the speed of the Earth's movement are much less than the official ones ... It may (possibly) has already been experimentally proven: 1) the existence of aether; 2) my model of the Universe.

Could these traces on the Earth's surface be from the Sun and the Moon?
(https://i.ibb.co/NyGcmdd/smt2.jpg)
No, such a thing is not physically possible.
These traces on the surface of the Earth are a fact. A clear trace on the surface, and a tectonic plate completely repeating the outline of a trace on the surface. These traces and the tectonic plates that correspond to these traces have no analogues, and most likely have no unambiguous official explanation.

Since this is "That CAN'T be true!" section, here is my version to the origin of these traces.

Tectonic plates are formed under the pressure of a large mass, therefore they are also called continental plates. The Pacific plate is formed under the pressure of a homogeneous mass of water over a large area. The tectonic plates outlined in red rectangles (PHILIPPINE PLATE, COCOS PLATE, CARRIBEAN PLATE and SCOTIA PLATE) in the image below were formed under the pressure of large masses that were once there, but now they are not there - under the pressure of the Sun and the Moon. In addition, the tectonic plates outlined in red rectangles in the image below completely repeat the outlines of traces on the Earth's surface.

(https://i.ibb.co/BZXRhH6/tp3.jpg)

The Sun flew farther from the Earth and left only one trace on the surface (PHILIPPINE PLATE). The Moon hooked the Earth several times while entering its current orbit along an elliptical trajectory - it left three tracks on the Earth's surface: COCOS PLATE, CARRIBEAN PLATE and SCOTIA PLATE.

Japan - the land of the rising Sun.
The name of the country “Mexico” and the city of Mexico City are believed to be derived from the words metztli (“Moon”) and xictli (“navel, middle”), thus meaning “middle of the Moon”.

Why, over 70 years of space exploration (development) by the efforts of all mankind, this space is still not being mastered (developed) in any way? Of all the objects in the celestial sphere, all "stars" and "planets" for some reason are one to one + - brightness. Only the Sun and the Moon stand out with the same angular dimensions (the dimensions are proportional to the distances to the Earth) and the same axial rotation periods - 27 days.

Why, over 70 years of space exploration (development) by the efforts of all mankind, this space is still not being mastered (developed) in any way?
Because it is too expensive and difficult, obviously.
Of all the objects in the celestial sphere, all "stars" and "planets" for some reason are one to one + - brightness.
What are you trying to say, that makes no sense.
Only the Sun and the Moon stand out with the same angular dimensions (the dimensions are proportional to the distances to the Earth) and the same axial rotation periods - 27 days.
That's not true.  Of course all your claims are nonsense, so...

How can we master space Thin air is good to live in but what can we do with the vacuum of space I know nothing.

Two huge diametrically opposite formations on the surface of the Earth's core (Earth Blobs). Both are displaced eastward. The larger Earth Blob (under Africa) corresponds to the continents of Praeurasia (Africa, Eurasia, Australia), which are displaced from it to the east. The smaller Earth Blob (under the Pacific Ocean) corresponds to the continents of PreAmerica (North America, South America, Antarctica), which are displaced from it to the east. To the east (near) of Eurasia there is a huge trace from the Sun (shifted to the east) on the surface, and the tectonic plate completely repeats the outline of this trace (PHILIPPINE PLATE). Near the Americas, there are huge traces of the Moon (displaced to the east) on the surface, and tectonic plates completely repeating the outlines of these tracks (COCOS PLATE, CARRIBEAN PLATE and SCOTIA PLATE).

All these facts cannot be coincidences. These are patterns that testify to this.

(ProtoEarth, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars; common center of mass between Earth and Sun; distance to the Moon is about 100 000 km., distance to the Sun is about 300 000 km.; Moon diameter is about 800-1000 kilometers, Sun diameter is about 2500-3000 kilometers; Oort Cloud is the border of the Universe where all the "stars" and "galaxies" located - formed from the ProtoEarth's mantle (core) with diameters about tens of kilometers; the diameter of the Universe does not exceed one light minute)

How do you explain the craft that has gone to Mars and the time delay to control the craft and how do you know that a light second is true if you don't believe the science. You believe in one light minute what if science is telling a lie about the speed of light?

The existence of the aether may have already been proven experimentally.
The aether has not yet been officeally proven.

Right...

These traces on the surface of the Earth are a fact.

It's also a fact that the Sun coming into contact with the Earth would destroy the Earth, whereas the Moon coming into contact with the Earth would destroy the Moon (and make the Earth molten). Since both the Earth and the Moon still exist, we know that no such thing ever happened.

Why not?
Mind you, half your "facts" are not true.

My very dear friend are you saying that science over the past 500 years is a conspiracy. Are we to believe that you are the truth and all others are not to be believed. Please come down to earth and we can have a real discussion. PS can you please send me some of those mushrooms that you have they must be very good.

Now the new model of the Universe is known in 1) Singapore, 2) Thailand, 3) NASA and 4) Russian Police.

So you have been spamming other places with your nonsense then - and in most cases had it swiftly removed?
