Discovering Burkhard Heim: A Theory of Everything?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Burkhard Heim's theories, particularly his proposed "field drive," suggest the potential for interstellar travel within a human lifetime, challenging conventional scientific paradigms. Despite limited mainstream exposure, Heim's work includes predictions about mass and the absence of black holes, as his theory does not incorporate singularities. The discussion highlights the need for accessible translations of Heim's technical texts and inquiries into papers that elucidate his solutions to gravitational problems.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of theoretical physics concepts
  • Familiarity with Burkhard Heim's theories
  • Knowledge of gravitational theories and their implications
  • Ability to navigate scientific literature and research papers
NEXT STEPS
  • Research Burkhard Heim's "field drive" concept and its implications for space travel
  • Explore the absence of black holes in Heim's theory and its significance
  • Find and review accessible translations of Heim's original works
  • Investigate papers discussing Heim's solutions to gravitational problems
USEFUL FOR

The discussion is beneficial for theoretical physicists, science enthusiasts, and researchers interested in alternative theories of gravity and interstellar travel concepts.

I read up a few articles on him after someone told me to, and from what I can tell, it is really interesting. I heard that that Heim's theories haven't gotten a lot of exposure to the mainstream scientific world, and that if verified, could change the way we think of things. What really caught my attention was that he proposed a kind of "field drive" that would make interstellar travel within a human lifetime a thing of reality. I thought it was pretty neat, here's some links:

Problem: I had not found translation in English of Heim's works! only some introduction, no technical texts...
At this moment the most interesting thing is the masses prediction
(it was used also at DESY)
have we other things to evaluate it?
 
One thing about Heim's theory is a bit unclear to me.
I read somewhere (unfortunately I cannot remeber where), that his theory doesn't predict black holes because/and it comes without any singularities. (The topic there was, that it doesn't predict any particles, besides the neutral electron, which aren't found yet.)

I'm a bit unsure if this means for this theory black holes do not exist. A universe without black holes? Aren't black holes relativly sure to exist today?

Does someone know a paper about the heim theory, which descripes the main ideas behind it and how it actually "solved" the gravity problem.

And Universe_Man there are unfortunately some topics about the heim theory with those links and a long discussion about them. The search-button is your friend ;)
