    Just like Dr. Chandrashekar was ridiculed by Eddington... Even today as we speak, the Indian science fraternity is betraying Prof. CS Unnikrishnan for his major theoretical contributions include the Theory of Cosmic Relativity. Just because it is refuting Einstien's theories, our colonial minded scientists in India has severley punished CS Unnikrishnan and he had to even lose his job in TIFR.

    The fact that atomic decay cannot be stopped, once started, and that it causes other normal matter to begin decaying, with or without a bomb, is surprizing that it was known or surmized in that early date! This brings new respect for Mr. Wells, and his insight into the scientific field!

This kinda miss directional prop is happening now again. They went from netzche vilinizing Newtons classical observers fallen human dashboard equations of hierarchy knowledge of Good and evil macro theory of everything and wanting the fundamental building blocks to end the great debate to now modern day naturalism dont want that and started wanting big bang macro theory of everything based on Newton dashboard lol

    Weird that this video doesn't have a lot of attention. Maury should be celebrated as a prominent woman in late 19th century cosmology, she contributed a lot. I haven't heard about her before today. Hope she gets more attention, because she deserves it.

    It seems to me that renormalization is required because we exist on one of two reciprocal regions of a single sided manifold. Surface(cos(u/2)cos(v/2),cos(u/2)sin(v/2),sin(u)/2),u,0,2pi,v,0,4pi A radially symmetric Klein bottle. Notice the catastrophic convergence of vectors at the node. The metric itself increases and yet the paths are all of least action. Time is a compactified dimension one single Planck second in size. Through Kuramoto synchrony of partially coupled space we evolve a hyper plane of the present. On one side is matter and in the other antimatter. Reciprocals of each other. An inflow here is an outflow from there. Compactified time is why there are limits<limit theorem And why there is conservation. Neither HAS to be, but they are. The Hubble red shift is a purely geometric artifact. The curvature in spacetime caused by the mass between observer and observed. Neutron decay cosmology

    It's absolutely strange how the abstract chaldean mindset of Europe creates this island of german understanding more eastern but still trapped in platos cave mystified by shadows on the wall. Then America under wartime powers adopt the very extrene physical prescriptions upon what was known. Its absolutely idealogical 1880s -1945 war after war influences behind the reactionary responses. Like Einsteins theory had to be evolutionary time space. We couldn't teach or speak of many inertia frame of reference gradiant times and had to confuse and corrupt man made language, math & time counting calenders. God had to be treated as universe itself physically with separation of our human past.

    Just one small correction. Williamina Fleming did not have a daughter, but a son, whom she named Edward Charles Pickering Fleming. He graduated from MIT in 1901 as a mining engineer, worked in the field most of his adult life, and died in Los Angeles at the age of eighty-two.
