What is motion?

Beware, the following is not physics...
It makes sense!

Acknowledging motion

There are two ways to ascertain motion for oneself, through observation and through personal experimentation.

Nothing
happens
until
something
moves!

  Einstein

Observation

   The most common way to acknowledge motion is through observation, and as a matter of consensus observation is at the base of the Relativity theory.
   Einstein introduces the principle of relativity through the observation of a flying raven. Click here to read Einstein's very words.
   Observation 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 observer and the motion observed. Note that the cause of motion is ignored in any observation.
   The object of this paragraph is to make you realize that both observer and messenger are independent of the motion observed, let alone of its cause! And this observation about the observation of motion doesn't in any way question the relativity theory.
   The point is that observation along with the relativity theory cannot and do not answer the question: What is motion?

Experimentation

   Gently move your head left and right, and for a second or two close your eyes...you felt the motion of your head. If you're not sure redo the experiment.
   While it occurs you feel the motion of your head even though you do not observe it! In other words motion is physical.
   Now there is a big difference between physical motion that is the reality of motion and the relativity associated to the observation of motion!
   One may safely assert that motion occurs physically and independently-of or besides the relativity associated to the observation of motion; an assertion already stated above in the phrase starting with: "The object of this paragraph..."; yet that assertion was based on non physical grounds (on observation rather than experiment).
   From the point of view of the experimenter motion is physical.

Einstein genius

   Many claim, after Einstein, that motion is relative. Yet relativity is a characteristic of the observation of motion, and not of motion.
   In actuality motion is physical!
   Einstein's theory is amazing because all its predictions have been precisely verified.
   The truth of the matter is because nature is consistent our observation of it remains consistent!
   The purpose of this site is not to denounce the relativity theory.
   The purpose of this web-page is to emphasize the reality of motion.

Introduction to the gravimotion mechanism

   The gravimotion mechanism is not based on the observation of motion as relativity is.
   The gravimotion theory is based on the reality of motion and the physical phenomenon of gravitation.
   But do not be fooled, besides asserting that motion is physical, the gravimotion theory doesn't explain what is motion 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!


There is much more to say (and discover) about motion! That is besides relativity.
