Dayton Miller stands out as one of the most determined experimental astronomers of the past century and his attention to detail was extraordinary. His highly repeatable results, which aligned with those of the Michelson-Morley experiment of 1887, really are undeniable. The Earth's motion through space is between 9 and 10 km/s, not the predicted 30 km/s (or 107226 km/h!).
Have you come across the work of Simon Shack? He demonstrated that Miller's results align with the Earth's motion as if it were completing a 25,344-year circular orbit, traveling from Polaris to Vega and back to Polaris (the PVP orbit).
Thanks Brent, in actual fact no I have no knowledge of Mr. Shack, but based on what you said, I already like him :) Yes Miller was the first to map out the cosmic drift and journey. He was criticised for some of this conclusions, but in essence he was going in the right direction. Great that Mr Shack has confirmed Miller's work.
Hi, new to this, so very grateful for your efforts at keeping it comprehensible! Can you point me to a good working definition of aether? Is this the same thing as ether? I know this is contentious having just tried to find the answer online… but thought you, with your regard for scientific truth, could probably point me to a good basic place to start working this out. Thanks again.
Thanks, glad you find it useful. The Aether is not explained by 'mainstream science', some posts coming with sources as to what it is. It is a medium, akin to 'water in the firmament' mentioned in the OT, or in the 20th century, a medium of reduced 'glass'. Robert Laughlin, Nobel laureate physicist, summarises: "Subsequent studies with large particle accelerators have now led us to understand that space is more like a piece of window glass than ideal Newtonian emptiness. It is filled with “stuff” that is normally transparent but can be made visible by hitting it sufficiently hard to knock out a part. The modern concept of the vacuum of space, confirmed every day by experiment, is a relativistic aether. But we do not call it this because it is taboo”. It would be similar to an atmosphere. Humans breathe - this is only possible within an aether or atmosophere. Same for light transfer or any transmission in space of light, sound, radiation, or material particle creation.
Thanks Mick. Glad it helps. Future post coming on how the universe might indeed spin around our globe based on Newtonian mechanics. I have always wondered how we (the Earth) move 585 million miles each year, yet, from 2000 BC we can view astrological tables, and even artwork which reveals the same cosmic view that we have. I guess it is possible in a cosmos where all the planets are moving (along with all the galaxies), but it does defy some belief that over 4000 years, the views are remarkably unchanged. This is quite a massive synchronicity. Re Jamiroquai - yes 'virtual reality', prescient man :)
Dayton Miller. Why have we never heard of him? A young student of ours is off to university to study physics. I am forwarding all your posts to him. It is the younger generation who can turn this around. I reflected yesterday that science is no longer what we once took to be science and ceased so to be really around the later half of the nineteenth century. Maybe all human striving for truth and accuracy is - at some point - hijacked and used by dogmatist for political and economic gain. Look what happened to Christianity. Quiet obviously, the entire world of physics should be busily engaged in repeating Miller's experiments and amplifying their scope in an attempt to find out the truth. That is all they should be doing. If relativity theory is codswallop we should stop wasting time on it and get back to describing reality accurately with good replicable experiments and postulating theory based only on the data. I agree with you about Kuhn. He advances an argument of the relativity of scientific truth but suggest no reason for it. I sense sociology and psychology may be of some help finding that reason.
Thanks David. I wish the young student well. As you said, "Quiet obviously, the entire world of physics should be busily engaged in repeating Miller's experiments and amplifying their scope in an attempt to find out the truth. That is all they should be doing..." Well stated. This is really the nub of it. If Miller was wrong (I don't see how he could be, given how careful, meticulous and voluminous he was), then that can be proven with experimentation and follow up. He left his records and observations open for everyone to see (unlike Pasteur for eg. or Hawking et al). Instead Einstein sets a terrier (Shankland) to discredit Millers' work with ad hoc and incorrect criticisms. The same thing they did to Dingle using maths unrelated to the actual STR of Einstein, to say Dingle (the foremost expert in STR) did not understand STR! Par for the course. Saw the same during the Rona plandemic as well.
Yes. Exactly. When science becomes mantra uttering mystical dogma it is not science and we suffer for that. I call on all young physics students the world over to drop their hopeless attempts to understand the mystical convolutions of Einstein's bonkers mathematics and look long and hard at Miller's experiments. thanks again for all your hard work bringing this information to our generation and future generations in an easy to comprehend way.
Excellent exposé!

Simon Shack - nice link, thanks. "The scientific revolution starts now."

Strangely and not there’s lots of 9 and 11s in that text.
Outstanding!

Very Interesting the Aether direction governed from Draco....perhaps other forces from Vegans and Palaidians, also....
The cosmological trinity.
The Aether drift moves with the stars, while the earth is stationary.
Thus our cosmic enclosure spins, not the Earth.
This would explain the transmission principles and apparent velocities of emf.
Like Spocks revelation to the chief engineer in regards to the transwarp equation.
We are not moving, the cosmos is.
"Travelling without moving"
Dune, Jamiroquai, Hitchikers etc.
Love yer work!

I'm just wondering when we arrive at Polaris and the incalculable impossibilty of not hitting anything before arrival.
Fantastic work, with a cool attitude, you're a very rare individual indeed !
