Is Relativity Correct?

One Hundred Sixty Fifth Post: Is Relativity Correct?

Brainstorming is so fun. It is the start of a new project, answer, or idea. I like to brainstorm as long as possible. I like to think through a solution to see how plausible it is before I start working on the math and drawings. Of course the one thing you get when finished brainstorming is a bunch of ideas that don’t work. You can only hope that one will give the answer. It is better to find out if an idea won’t work before spending time solving it.

Projects aren’t the only things that don’t turn out. Sometimes theories are wrong. Just Google relativity. You will see sites that claim relativity is incorrect or claiming Einstein was wrong. Of course with any theory there is going to be debate. But the question is how can you claim something is wrong when you don’t understand it? Is there anyone how understands it the way Einstein intended?

One site seems to have extensive papers, but is difficult for us non physicists to compare theories. The site doesn’t seem to sell anything. It just offers its papers. See it at http://www.relativitychallenge.com. I would prefer not reading through all the papers which I didn’t do. Instead I would prefer key facts that stand out. I believe if something would prove relativity wrong it would be a simple discovery not a mathematical error. Of course this is open to debate. See what you think.

And in the meantime... May the Creative Force be with You
