Uniform gravitating prolate spheroids and polyhedra are proposed as theoretical constructs that may not be commonly recognized in nature. The discussion raises questions about the existence of these shapes in the universe, suggesting they might be overlooked or "forbidden" concepts. Participants are encouraged to explore potential natural occurrences of prolate spheroids and noncrystalline polyhedra. The conversation highlights a desire for deeper understanding and acceptance of these geometric forms in scientific discourse. The inquiry into their presence in nature remains open and invites further exploration.

Where are uniform gravitating prolate spheriods found?
If I gave my idea a name, it could be "gravitating prolate sphereoids" and "gravitating polyhedra". I make some very basic connections and give some basic proofs and get an unusual amount of resistance. I sensed they were "forbidden". Maybe the idea is right.

Would either of you care to expound?

I tried to introduce the possibility of simply described objects that are apparently not present in our complex universe. My questions are straightforward if you consider them.
John has his own, disconnected ideas.

Ask yourself where in nature you might find a prolate spheroid.
Ask also where in nature you might find noncrystalline polyhedra.
Do we even know? My understanding of dark energy is that particles come into existence, exert and outward force, then vanish. My problem with that is how, of course, then how does dark energy know to push everything in the same direction? The pressure exerted would be in all directions, even if the space was moving so why isn't stuff pushed all over the sky?
