What is motion?
Beware, the following is not physics...
It makes sense!
and not in time!
Think about it,

Einstein's relativity of motion doesn't answer the question...
The most common way to acknowledge motion is through observation; and observation is at the base of the Relativity theory.Our observation of motion is made 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.
The object of this paragraph is to make you realize that both observer and messenger are independent of the motion observed.
And this observation about the observation of motion doesn't in any way question the relativity theory!
The point is that observation along the relativity theory cannot and does not 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?
But first, is motion real?
The answer to that one is a sound YES!Here is a simple experiment: Close your eyes a second or two, then keeping your eyes closed move gently your head left and right...
While it occurs you physically feel your head accelerating and decelerating that is moving left and right.1
In short while it occurs you feel motion even though you do not observe it!
If you're not sure redo the experiment, and specifically feel the occurrence of motion as compared to the still state of rest.
Now we can assert that motion is real because we do feel it.
Reality relativity.
Einstein's favorite example of motion relativity is a bystander on the railroad track embankment; she sees a train moving along. A traveler 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!
And many claim, after Einstein, that motion is relative. Yet relativity is a characteristic of human observation of motion, and not of motion per se.
In actuality motion is physical!
The fact (of the matter) is that (no matter the observer), motion is observed!
The purpose here is not to deny relativity but to emphasize the reality of motion because that sets our minds in a totally new scope of reasoning!
Even though real we cannot explain what is motion!
Amazingly whether we observe motion, as in the theory of relativity, or feel motion as in the above experiment, we cannot explain what is motion!It seems that the best answer to the question (what is motion?) would be found in the science of physics.
The closest representative of motion in physics is speed, which is relative.
The relativity of motion escapes any explanation; motion relativity is self-evident (period)!
Motion is elusive or non-real in physics and as such physics eludes the question.
One could argue that there is also accelerated motion, which is absolute in physics.
Yet accelerated motion is only an ephemeral consequence of force in physics.
Even though absolute accelerated motion is nevertheless virtual in physics.
In physics forces take over or dominate accelerated motion.
In physics motion doesn't exist, only space, time, forces and mass do exist!
Motion is described as successive positions in space in function of time.
Instead of moving, matter somehow hops from a position to the next in physics!
Introducing the gravimotion mechanism.
Let's face it: the reality of motion is ignored in physics!By contrast, the gravimotion theory, detailed in the book on your left, is based on the reality of motion and the physical phenomenon of gravitation.
But do not be fooled, besides asserting that motion is physical, or real and that we personally experiment it, the gravimotion theory doesn't explain what motion is either!
Motion, in the gravimotion theory, is as mysterious as time and space are in physics!
Yet motion is not as controversial because motion is physical, space and time are not!
In the gravimotion world space and time do not exist! Motion takes over.
We are living in motion and not in time!
Note 1: Acceleration and deceleration are "forces" in physics (and not motion). It is called "motion" here because your head does "move" left and right. Obviously (in reality) motion is not restricted to "uniform motion" (as seems to be in physics).
