From the 12 page .pdf "Flaws in Black Hole Theory and General Relativity" by Stephen J. Crothers, on page 10 under "9. INVALIDITY OF EINSTEIN’S FIELD EQUATIONS":
. . . It also means that gravitational energy cannot be localised (i.e. Einstein gravitational waves do not exist);26 and that Einstein’s field equations violate the usual conservation of energy and momentum and are therefore in conflict with experiment on a deep level, rendering them invalid.

Ya I was just thinking how I would think the more of something, energy, the harder and more difficult it would be to pass that area that contains more energy then an area that contains less energy, when really it is harder to pass through ice, an area that contains less energy then an area of water, which contains more energy and is easier to pass through. I just thought that was interesting. And so if there is some parallel to other solid matters besides ice, if solid matter is the difficult to pass through (like ice) it has less energy (?) then...another state of matter, and what that be its pure energy form? Or the non solid fields?
Not sure what your getting at but yes the more energy an area has the more difficult it is to go through. Even virtual particles slow down things that have enough mass.

Well ice is just a different state of matter cant really make a correlation to how hard it is to travel through. However as a general rule id say the worst to travel through would be plasma which is a high energy state. In fact traveling through plasma is lethal and be a very short trip.
I think when we talk about "fundamental" forces and their fields, fundamental means that's where the explanations stop. In other words, if we had a deeper explanation of what it was made of, we probably wouldn't call it fundamental...because in that case whatever it was made of would then be fundamental.

What are fields made of?
Ever hear a symphony orchestra with 100 instruments playing at the same time? You can hear them all simultaneously through the principle of superposition.
And how do 58 of something different exist in the same point of space/every point of space?
I think the orchestra is only approximately linear over certain amplitudes, due to limitations in the way air molecules can compress, but since no compression of air molecules is required for the superposition of EM fields, the system of multiple EM fields is more linear.
In physics and systems theory, the superposition principle, also known as superposition property, states that, for all linear systems, the net response at a given place and time caused by two or more stimuli is the sum of the responses which would have been caused by each stimulus individually.

Ok cool, I didnt mean just em fields. Someone earlier replied that it is thought there are 58 fundamental fields, including Em, gravity, higgs, and all the quarks and electrons and particles. I was wondering about those. For the case of EM fields, they dont interact with each other in space do they? Can sound waves interact with one another? Does the higgs field interact with the EM field and gravity field and quark field? If there is an entire quark field, but quarks are only in certain places throughout the universe, I was wondering what is the essence of the fieldness, what is the quark field where there are no quarks, quark juice?
Isn't one possible explanation of the Casimir effect that there's less energy in the smaller space because longer wavelengths are excluded from the small cavity, which creates a low pressure area inside the cavity? If there was more energy in the smaller cavity wouldn't the parallel plates be pushed out instead of pulled in?

The smaller the area we look at the more energy it contains.

Everyone keeps saying that gravity is the weakest force, but they ignore the interaction mediated by the W and Z bosons called the electroweak force. It is several orders of magnitude weaker in field strength over a given distance than either the strong nuclear force or electromagnetic interactions.
But how does it compare to gravity? You started out by saying "Everyone keeps saying that gravity is the weakest force" but then you give no comparison of gravity with the force you're talking about. It's not being ignored, and furthermore your statement doesn't really make sense because it translates to "the electroweak force is weaker than one of the two forces of which it is comprised". Obviously it's not weaker than itself which is what your statement suggests. Maybe you meant the weak interaction, but it's the other component of the electroweak interaction besides electromagnetism, and even if that's what you meant, how does that compare with gravity?

In particle physics, the electroweak interaction is the unified description of two of the four known fundamental interactions of nature: electromagnetism and the weak interaction.

Ill check out the video. When the universe began, what fields were created first or were all the fields created at the exact same time? And are all the fields made(come from) of the same fundamental stuff?
About there being more energy in a smaller area then larger area...that doesnt make sense to me, because a larger area includes multiples of that same smaller area.edit on 12-11-2013 by ImaFungi because: (no reason given)I understand you mean an artificial area created with walls creates a pressure affect that to scale measures greater then if you do that same set up with a larger area, but how is my concern with that concept still not valid, that the larger of the true areas has more energy, because it contains that smaller area...s.edit on 12-11-2013 by ImaFungi because: (no reason given)

I have seen this video but ill watch it again. At around 17:55 area it shows on a bullet point, time is a thing, why do physicists think this?edit on 12-11-2013 by ImaFungi because: (no reason given)
