I have been reading and writing about gravity for over ten years. My gravity quest started in 1999 when I had decided that there were basic phenomena in the universe that I could not understand and gravity was on top of the list.

 

Everyday I was literally wasting significant blocks of time in my life. I felt the newspapers never gave good news and I was tired of being made depressed by world happenings so I made a conscious decision to read and write about gravity on my forty minute train trips up and down the Hudson River everyday on Metro North’s Hudson Line. After more than a year of doing this I had acquired a good basic understanding of both special and general relativity.

One snowy winters day I had been pondering Einstein’s Principle of Equivalence while peering out the train window at the majestic Palisades rising 500ft above the Western shore of the Hudson. Ice was moving upriver in chunks several feet long. Because the Hudson is an estuary it flows in both directions and on that day the ice was moving north (upriver) with the tide. I was heading home after work and it was still light out as my train traveled North up the river on the Eastern shore in the same direction as the ice flow. The train had just stopped at a station, then something incredible happened that changed my concept about physical reality forever.

Albert Einstein's Principle of Equivalence is all about appearances. It is about what an observer feels while accelerating in a particular direction. In a spacecraft accelerating at 32 feet per second every second or just standing upon the surface of mother Earth the sensation is exactly the same. Einstein had indicated that logical thought would indicate that if gravity was actually inertia the ground would have to be moving upward which is apparently illogical. There was that word apparently or appearances, it kept popping up. I was staring out at the ice flowing north when the train started up to head for the next station. To my amazement when the train reached a certain speed I could see the ice no longer moving. The ice appeared to have stopped moving. Then, to my astonishment as the train increased speed the ice began moving in the opposite direction, south, down river. How could this be? My brain was fully aware that the ice was moving north but my vision told me it was moving south. What if I had not been aware that the ice was moving north? If that was indeed the case, if anyone had asked me I would have told them that the ice was moving south, down river. I would have been wrong by 180 degrees! This was totally astonishing to me. How can an observer see something happening when the exact opposite was happening? Was there a name for this phenomenon in physics? There had to be.

 

This experience gave me the determination to become an expert on the phenomenon that is called “observer invariance” because I knew instinctively that the principle of equivalence had to do with this. I knew that somehow every observer on the planet was not seeing gravity correctly. Something was confusing every observer that had ever lived.

 

The question on my mind over the next eight years was…What kind of phenomenon could cause everyone who ever lived to see objects falling rather than the earth rising and if the earth was really rising it must be expanding. And if it was expanding without anyone seeing this happen, then everything else must be expanding equally and symmetrically, and if everything was getting larger, where was all the new material coming from?

I have, over several years, found the answers to these questions and the scientific explanations for them.

Gravity has remained a mystery to humankind because every time it is analyzed the answers appear to be absurd. The answer always points to the conclusion that the ground is moving upwards.

 

The Universal Properties of Acceleration offers a logical scientific explanation for how and why we cannot observe nor measure an event as radical as a uniform, symmetrical accelerating inflation of particle matter. A universe that is acting like a zoom lens, making everything larger at a constant acceleration rate. But because we are integral members of a this dual accelerating frame event (that produces inertia at the surface of planets according to their density and distance from the center), we cannot see ourselves accelerating at all, just the inertial results of that acceleration; a phenomenon that we call gravity.

I have done the math to prove that this is happening. I have found that Newton's Gravitational Constant represents more than just any two bodies in space being attracted to one another. I have found that the Gravitational Constant is actually the rate in which all particle matter inflates, which, in empty space makes all objects automatically come together. The Gravitational Constant units describe the acceleration of bodies coming together and are therefore perfect for describing the symmetrical inflation of particle matter. Using the constant in this manner anyone can find the secondary acceleration rate of any planet or star surface. All you need to know is the average density of particle matter of the planet or star and the distance the surface is from the core center.This formula has to work for galaxies as well or any other spherical group of particles in the universe. It describes a universe that is constantly inflating at an accelerated pace, exactly what has been found to be true. Einstein knew that accelerating matter inflates and gains mass, he just didn't know that all matter is accelerating into the direction "large".

It now appears that atomic form and structure emerge from forces derived from accelerating inflating energy at the particle level. Accelerating matter naturally inflates and all matter along with its associated force fiends is undergoing an accelerated symmetrical inflation into the new three dimensional direction of "larger" or expansion. Perhaps we may call it the fourth dimension.

As a consequence of the acceptance of this phenomenon, many scientific books and journals will have to be rethought and rewritten using this new premise. In some respects we will be moving science back to the age of Henri Poincare as he had made allowance for this phenomenon in his paper The Relativity of Space more than a hundred years ago. We will also have to think about particle energy having characteristics undreamed of. For what this analysis indicates is that energy is an embodiment of accelerated inflation and all visual shape is a result of this inflation. Light itself must be expanding as well.

The wonderful thing about this new premise is that the Law of Universal Properties of Acceleration supports Einstein's mathematics of space time curvature more accurately than his own premise, The Principle of Equivalence.

The amazing thing about this concept is that it can be proven with a plumb bob and the universal properties of acceleration.

The Universal Properties of Acceleration should replace the Principle of Equivalence.

 

The Universal Properties of Acceleration is the set of all properties or characteristics and attributes of an acceleration/inertial event that occur everywhere in the universe.

 

These properties include the following important property:

 

 

This includes the surfaces of planetary bodies in space.

 

Observer invariance creates the deception of a static position.

 

The solution involves the change in mass of all accelerating bodies.

All bodies are accelerating into the direction"large".

All spherical bodies above the particle level (and quite possibly below) are engaged in a secondary accelerating frame determined by mass and the distance from the core center.

 

 

Isaac Newton is known for establishing the gravitation laws in the year 1686. Since that time gravity has gone through only one major revision, the one formulated by Albert Einstein outlining his concept of space time curvature. Newton had demonstrated that particles in space would accelerate toward one another as if they were motivated by some sort of magnetism.  However, Einstein sensed that gravity acted more like inertia and actually believed that gravity and inertia were the same phenomena. He dedicated much of his life in pursuit of proving this idea because of the apparent “unity of nature,” as he called it, between the two.

 

Einstein was cognizant of the fact that no observer could detect the difference between traveling inside an accelerating space craft or resting stationary inside a closed box on the surface of a planet. Both would transmit the feeling of being pushed downward by acceleration. So it was one of Einstein’s primary intentions to bring gravity back into consideration as an inertial force.

 

However, the comparison between the two appeared to be lacking “exactness” because the floor of the space ship was accelerating upward (giving the feeling of being pushed downward) but the surface of the planet obviously was not, or some observer would be able to visually see and measure the diameter of the planet increasing. “…People on the opposite sides of the world would have to be accelerating in opposite directions but staying at a constant distance from each other.” (Hawking, (2001) The Universe in a Nutshell.)

 

Einstein thought that this could not be possible and pondered this problem until the day in which he had the “happiest thought of my life” which was the day he formulated his principle of equivalence:
