JEROME - Black holes do not exist

So has JDG been around lately? I'm curious to know what he believes is the alternate explanation to the phenomenon we normally associate with gravity.
 
My opinion that even difficult subjects can be explained (in general terms) by people who really understand the topic using straightforward language has again been strengthened. I particularly liked the solid/gas/liquid analogy.
Thanks again.


That's groovy :cool:

It's the second (seemingly third) time I've been thanked for that analogy. Too bad I cannot claim it as my own... that credit must go to Professor Ed Dorman of Western Kentucky University.

Gravity is the term we use to explain a supposed force which we can not measure or control.
I've quoted it before, but I'll quote it again. While it is true that all answers are responses, it is not true that all responses are answers. You didn't answer the (implied) question.

He is saying we can not measure gravity, he is troll.

Let me know when you can stop, start, and control the amount of gravity.
Let me know when you can stop, start and control the amount of the strong or the weak nuclear force.

The fact that we can control the force of electromagnetism (and that only to a certain extent) is the odd one out here, Jerome. Three out of the four fundamental forces are outside our control.

Easy, but first you need to understand how we control other semi-fundamental forces.

We can magnetize objects by applying an electrical current. We can stop the magnetic force by removing the current. The strength of the magnetic force depends (all other things being equal) on the strength of the current.

Likewise, we can start a gravitational force by introducing mass to the system. We can stop gravitational force by removing mass from the system. The strength of the gravitational force is proportional to the amount of mass.

We control the amount of gravity in the space shuttle by strictly controlling the amount of mass contained in it.
