Our solar system in review

The Forces of Nature by Kelland Terry, Ph.D.

I have in this section shown how elastic string theory can be used to explain common observations in our solar system. Gravitons have their effect because of three important features:
• They have physical properties; i.e., they have mass.
• They remain bound to the particles that create them.
• Finally, there is a vast concentration of gravitons emanating from central bodies, such as our Sun.

These features lead to the following conclusions:
• Gravitons couple the spin of a planet to its orbital motion about the Sun. Earth spins in the same direction it orbits as it collides and spins against the Sun’s gravitons in its path. Venus has the slowest spin rate of all the planets because Venus spins in the opposite direction that it rotates. Venus is slowly being forced to spin in the opposite direction.
• Gravitons physically connect satellites to central bodies. Because Earth spins on its axis, it drags the Moon forward much like a gyrating human body drags a hula hoop. This physically transfers Earth’s momentum to the Moon in the same manner that the human body transfers its energy to the hula hoop. The Moon is moving away from us as it gains momentum and Earth’s days grow correspondingly longer. Triton rotates around Neptune in the opposite direction that Neptune spins. Triton is being forced to migrate inward towards Neptune at a noticeable rate.
• A dense matrix of gravitons causes repulsion forces between Sun and planet. Repulsion is dependent upon graviton concentration and the angles taken by an orbiting planet. Repulsion decreases faster than gravitational attraction as the distance between two bodies increase because both of these factors decrease with distance.
• Because the ratio of repulsion force versus force of attraction decreases with distance from Sun, it completely explains Mercury’s precession thought due to relativity.
• The interaction of repulsion forces and the force of gravitation coupled with the planet’s equatorial bulge causes Earth and other planets to tilt on their axes.
• Because the ratio of repulsion force to the force of attraction decreases faster with distance from the Sun, it causes tilt to increase with distance, and it explains Earth’s annual (actually semiannual) polar wobble on axis.

Evidence that elastic strings explain precession

Repulsion forces between satellite and central body was used to explain Mercury's precession thought due to relativity. Let’s see how this jibes with the evidence when a regression analysis is used to predict precession for four known satellites, whose precession values are known. The results are shown in the following table.




It was gratifying to find that elastic string theory does a better job of predicting precession than Einstein’s equation and general relativity.


To delve into the details of how this regression analysis was run is beyond the scope of this blog; however, it is completely explained in my book. I will simply point out that the independent variables used were the difference in the concentration of the Sun's gravitons at aphelion versus perihelion, and the difference in angles of displacement between aphelion and perihelion (actually combined into one by multiplying) In addition, I used diameter of the satellite as one independent variable. Thus there were two independent variables.

The value of R squared that is computed in this analysis is an unbiased estimate of the relationship between the observed precession of the satellites and the two independent variables. If R squared is one, it means there is perfect correlation. R squared for this analysis is 0.9999991, which means there is almost perfect correlation.

If and when I get the observed precession for the other planets, and or asteroids, I will include them in this analysis. Till then be safe and in good health. Kelland—www.vestheory.com

Repulsion forces explain planet Mercury’s strange orbit

The Forces of Nature by Kelland Terry, Ph.D.

Mercury orbits closer to the Sun than any other planet in our solar system. In addition, its elliptical orbit is very pronounced, which changes the angles the planet must negotiate as it circles the Sun. The displacement angle taken by the planet as it rounds perihelion is 1.5 times greater than at aphelion. In addition, there is a 2.3 fold increase in the Sun’s graviton concentration at perihelion versus aphelion. I believe these two factors are responsible for the 0.00000396 increase in the repulsion force between aphelion and perihelion, as explained in the previous blog.

Because the repulsion force at perihelion forces the planet away from the Sun just a tad more than expected, it takes longer for the planet to reach the point where it is nearest the Sun; at aphelion the opposite occurs. Both of these factors work to constantly change Mercury’s orbit.

Mercury is not the only satellite that experiences an advancing perihelion. At this time, I only have data for three other satellites. Venus advances 8.4 arc seconds per century, Earth 5.0 arc seconds, and Icarus (an asteroid) 9.8 arc seconds. This gives me four satellites that I can examine using regression analysis, as explained in my next blog. The results are beautiful. Till then be safe and in good health. Kelland—www.vestheory.com

Planet Mercury does not obey universal law of gravitation

The Forces of Nature by Kelland Terry, Ph.D.

Mercury’s rotation about the Sun constantly changes. The point it is closest to the Sun advances forward in space with every rotation. Most of this change is due to the tug and pull of other solar bodies; however, there are 43 arc seconds per century that can not be explained in this manner. Einstein proposed that the 43 arc seconds discrepancy can be explained by his general theory of relativity. This view is not shared by all scientists in the field as explained in my book.

In 1958, Coleman, a former physics professor at UCLA, calculated that Mercury’s 43 arc seconds discrepancy can be explained if the difference in the force of attraction between Sun and planet at aphelion versus perihelion does not follow the universal law of gravitation. If the force of attraction at perihelion, when the planet it closest to the Sun, is 0.00000396 less than expected, this would completely explain Mercury’s strange orbit thought due to relativity. I propose this is the difference in repulsion forces experienced by the planet at aphelion versus perihelion.

When the planet is closest to the Sun, the repulsion forces push it away more than average, which serves to advance the perihelion point. At aphelion the opposite occurs and Mercury is pulled in towards the Sun more than average. Both serve to advance the perihelion point of Mercury. In future blogs, I will present strong evidence to support this contention. Till then be safe and in good health. Kelland—www.vestheory.com
