    Expansion of Universe And Its Influence on Earth Orbit

    Thank you for the answers! The influence of the expansion is very tiny in terms of our everyday world. However, regarding the Pioneer anomaly, there is a very tiny discrepancy which leads to the deviation in its flight path. So if the gravitational force of the Earth is slightly larger...

    Expansion of Universe And Its Influence on Earth Orbit

    OK. But does it mean that a "constant drag" of the expansion exists which tries to "push" Earth and sun apart? And if the gravitational force of the sun (or better: the gravitational force of sun and Earth together) is large enough to act against this force, does it imply that the...

    Expansion of Universe And Its Influence on Earth Orbit

    Assuming the expansion of the universe as a given fact, how does it influence orbits i.e. of the Earth around the sun or other planets in the solar system? Is it also usually included into the calculation of trajectories of space crafts (i.e. Pioneer, especially with regard to the Pioneer...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hi Nereid, Thank you for moving. I hope we can get some additional interesting input in this group. Schneibster and all others: Thank you for the answers. I am still keeping up reading and looking up some papers on virtual particles, fields and the like. However, before moving on...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Dear Caroline, with all respect to your theory, but first of all, I would like to understand how science explains our universe. And secondly I would like to understand where it still has frontiers in explaining it. Can you help us/me in the questions of this thread? But I would like to...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hi Nereid, Thanks for the details! Maybe we should move on with the discussion involving those guys. Would you move this thread there or would we start a new thread in that section? How would it work? Carsten

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hi Schneibster, May I still continue to “bug you” with a couple of questions? :smile: If a gravitational wave curves space and space curvature is a gravitational field, isn´t a gravitational field a gravitational force? Thus the wave would have formed the force… Hm, that was a little...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Well, thank you all for your posts! I will no be able to answer quickly to all of them, but here is the most important one for me: So this leads back to post # 1: At least virtual gravitons are able to move faster than c to escape the event horizon. Is this also true for virtual...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hi Schneibster, Here are the other small questions. I hope I will not bother you too much with them: Which are they in detail? Or at least the most important ones? What are these sophisticated things? By oscillation you mean something like an orbit around a sun? Or what would it be...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hi Schneibster, Thank you very much. I really enjoyed reading and understanding. I was just a little busy during the past days so I have just currently found some time to respond. I am sorry for being a little overdue… I assume you mean the tidal force at both sides of the object. Either...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hi DB, First of all: Thank you very much for your great explanations! That clarifies a lot! I have still some comments on it. Also some questions remain or are newly evoked. I hope I may ask them. Yes, I definitely enjoyed it! Plus: After the stone has sunk to the bottom, the water...

    Incompatability of GRT and Quantum Mechanics

    Marlon, Do you have some other examples? Maybe 1 or 2 important ones just for clarification. Thanks, Carsten

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hm. How should one mass particle get the information where the second mass particle is located at? And how is the (gravitational) force enacted which attracts both particles? Since a theory on gravitational waves and gravitons does exist, it should also provide answers to the questions I am...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Hi DB, thanks for the substantial explanations. That helps already to increase my understanding. I would like to, if I may. I am still a little confused when relating all facts. For me it is difficult to understand why gravitational waves (gravitons) should propagate through spacetime...

    Is gravitation faster than light?

    Of course we cannot say for sure if graviton particles exist. For string theory and quantum mechanics it would be very important, as I understand. But can you (or anybody else) tell me, whether in theory gravitational waves (= gravitons) and the curvature of space (= gravitation...
