Re: HOW BLATANTLY EINSTEINIANS CAN LIE

Joseph Goebbels: "If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes
truth".
Nowadays the lie:
"Michelson and Morley showed the constancy of the speed of light: a
beam of light will come at you at the same speed whether its source is
moving toward you or moving away from you, or whether you are moving
toward or away from it"

Dear Yousuf Khan:
There are outliers. This is not surprising. The data points are more
exceptions than rules. They are just "clustered".
And it would do nothing but fine tune cosmology a little bit. Dark

anomalous distribution of Dark Energy is found in some region /

Does the light curve include its absolute luminosity, and duration? If
it does, then it probably wouldn't fit into the standard picture of a
Type Ia. It would probably have a similar shape, but a different
duration, and thus a different absolute luminosity.

I have thought one possibility that origin of gravitational
interaction could be
"oscillation of size of neutrino´s signal periphery"
What you think about this possibility?
(Neutrinos are described as colored black holes in this H-M´s
picture.)

What you said is mostly geological knowledge, not anatomical
knowledge, which is essential in talking about fossils. Fossils
include cell/tissue remains, not just bones. Disprove me directly
rather than beating about bush. If you can, my ultimate evidence is

There is a year zero even if it is almost impossible to designate
where and when it began yet the technical points drawn from ancient
astronomy are so definite,so stable and so clear that I marvel at how
contemporaries tend to muddy the picture rather than promote the
fairly simple structures which link AM/PM with B.C/A.D .

Yes, there is certainly some variation in the absolute brightness of the Ia
SN, and a tight correlation of absolute peak luminosity with the duration of
the rise and fall time (after correction for time dilation). This was one
of the first results published over a decade ago. So possibly this sort of

You need to play with magnets before you assume anything, especially
about white dwarf stars that could represent 1e6 gauss each.
Try to orbit powerful magnets in open space as a simulation, such as
within the zero delta V of our moon-Earth L1(Selene L1). Whatever you
do, don't place yourself in the center.

Except the SN1a standard candle is such only because the shape of the light
curve is known to be extremely consistent. This does not change anything if
the light curve is the same, which it probably is since it is called a 1a.

Just as we were talking about the possibility of dual white dwarf star

there is now confirmation that at least one of them was definitely like
this. SN 2007if is believed to have been a mass explosion of about 2.1
