Einstein's own introduction to the principle of relativity
Einstein's favorite example of motion relativity is a bystander on the railroad track embankment; she sees a train moving along.On the other hand a traveler sitting in the train sees her and the landscape moving through the window...
Einstein then states that motion is relative and adds that relativity is self-evident!
Observation of motion is not motion
Common sense though also dictates that the landscape is not moving underneath the train!Supposing the traveler sees the bystander moving North, another traveler riding a train in the opposite direction would see her move South.
The observed bystander cannot move in 2 opposite directions, North and South at same time... the reality is that she doesn't move but in the eyes of the moving observers.
The self-evidence of relativity is a consequence of seeing motion.
The relativity of motion is dependent-on or derived-from the observation of motion
The relativity of motion is not a characteristic of motion but a characteristic of the observation of motion.
And this mental observation about the physical observation of motion doesn't in any way question the relativity theory!
Motion relativity doesn't answer the question: what is motion?
Observation is at the base of the relativity theory.And observation of motion consists of an observer and light rays, which bounce off the moving object to strike the observer's retina.
The light acts as a messenger between the motion observed and the observer.
Both observer and messenger are independent of the motion observed.
Note that again that doesn't in any way question the relativity theory!
The point is that neither observation of motion nor motion relativity answer the question: What is motion?
Note that should one observe the motion of an electron, the very motion of the messenger (light rays) might disturb the motion of the electron; the point remains though, observation doesn't answer the question: what is motion?
Motion relativity sidesteps the reality of motion
Many claim, after Einstein, that motion is relative.And the truth is that for the traveler the train is not moving and may be used as a reference for the motion that is observed through the window.
Yet claiming that, choosing the right observer, the landscape rather than the train is moving, is also metamorphosing the motion of the train into a non real entity.
The motion of the train, which is nevertheless occuring, is ignored.
The relativity principle strips motion of its reality!
In science physics motion is systematically rejected and ignored
- Uniform motion is assimilated to rest, in Newton's inertia law.
And as far as motion is concerned "rest", which is no motion, is nothing.
In other words "uniform motion is nothing" in physics.
Uniform motion is put to rest in physics' inertia law! - And in physics, gravity's accelerated motion is either due to the force of gravity or to space-time curvature.
Force is in charge in physics, accelerated motion is only an elusive consequence of it.
Einstein went as far as claiming that a roofer falling of the roof is not accelerated because he feels no force!
In physics motion is systematically reduced to nothing, and ends up being ignored!
Is motion real?
The answer to that one is a sound YES!You might find the following, which explains how motion is real, to be a waste of time even childish!
But its has to be written because it goes against physics systematic denial of motion.
Something is real for sure, when the word used to call that something (here the word motion) and the concept backing up that word within our minds, coincides to something that we can see "really" with our eyes or feel "physically" with our body.
Or which is the same, something is real for sure, when the word used to call that something (here the word motion) coincides to something that "exists" or "occurs" in the real world, the real world being outside our minds.
With this understanding of what is real for sure, one can assert that motion is real or physical because:
- With its own eyes one sees motion occuring outside its own mind and body.
- With its own flesh one can feel the impact of the motion of its own body has in a collision.
We can assert that motion is real because we do see and feel it.
Even though motion is real we cannot explain what is motion!
Amazingly whether we observe motion, as in the theory of relativity, or feel motion with our own body, we cannot explain what is motion!Physics' relativity eludes the reality of motion.
Accelerated motion is only an ephemeral consequence of force in physics.
And the science of physics banishes uniform motion as a physical entity from the real world.
There is yet another aspect of motion in physics...
In physics motion is also described as successive positions in space in function of time.
Yet in that interpretation of physics, matter instead of moving, somehow hops from a position to the next, abolishing motion for good!
Introducing the gravimotion mechanism.
Let's face it: the reality of motion is ignored in physics!By contrast, gravimotion's interpretation of nature is based on the reality of motion.
In the gravimotion world, to start with, motion takes over space and time, and that reflects the expansion of the universe.
As a consequence we are living in motion and not in time...
Furthermore in that interpretation motion is self sufficient, at the image of forces in physics.
Last but not least motion is altogether its own cause and effect.
Yet do not be fooled, besides asserting that motion is physical, or real the gravimotion mechanism doesn't explain what motion is either!
