    Breaking the Sound Barrier: Ze Optical Boom by Albert Einstein ze Sird

    Yes, zis is true. However, I prefer ze term disintegrate. But, please allow me to prepare a response to the last few posts. My aim is not to disprove the theory of relativity. Yet, one thing I already know is that, when something continues to require corrections and additional...

    Breaking the Sound Barrier: Ze Optical Boom by Albert Einstein ze Sird

    Show me an equation, or even a single number, in the theory of evolution. Shall I quote the definition of ‘theory’ from any dictionary? The point is, nowhere does it say a theory must involve mathematical equations. But, because I’d like to discuss this in the context of relativity, let’s...

    Breaking the Sound Barrier: Ze Optical Boom by Albert Einstein ze Sird

    JesseM, please assume that I do understand the basic principles of relativity, and that I do conditionally accept the fact that they rule out the idea of a metrically universal origin.

    Breaking the Sound Barrier: Ze Optical Boom by Albert Einstein ze Sird

    Okay, Mr. Pervect, this may help. If it doesn't, then I must conclude that you are simply incapable of taking anything seriously. To be more specific, what I'm suggesting is that when something is brought up to light speed, it will begin to disintegrate. I suppose the mechanism for this would...

    Breaking the Sound Barrier: Ze Optical Boom by Albert Einstein ze Sird

    Good feedback. But, I’m not sure that’s the same thing going on there, because I’d expect to see white light (all the colors). It seems to me the Chernenkov effect is some kind of Doppler thing, you know, like a blue shift caused by a fast moving emitter. Or, maybe it’s a ‘red’ shift of...

    Can Chromatic Aberration Create Gravitational Fields?

    True enough. But, at smaller angles of incidence and refraction, a spherical atmosphere would act more like a converging lens than a prism. This means that, in the ‘lens’ region near the optical axis, the light that passes through would not be subject to the dispersion to which you refer...

    Breaking the Sound Barrier: Ze Optical Boom by Albert Einstein ze Sird

    Ze Optical Boom By Albert Einstein ze Sird In nineteen forty-somesing, ze venerable Chuck Yeager became ze first human on ze planet to break ze sound barrier. He also did zis, I might add, wizout becoming his own daddy. Of course, humans travel faster zan ze speed of sound all ze time...

    Can Chromatic Aberration Create Gravitational Fields?

    I just remembered somesing. Have we taken into account ze fact zat any celestial body wiz a gaseous atmoshphere will more zan likely bend light beams by way of optical refraction, as well? Just sinking.
