Gravity with Thomas Hertog

- Thomas Hertog is a Belgian cosmologist at KU Leuven university and a key collaborator of Professor Stephen Hawking. He received his master’s degree in physics from the KU Leuven and his doctorate from the University of Cambridge. He joined the University of California as a research fellow in 2002 and became fellow at CERN, Geneva, in 2005. In 2011 he returned to Belgium where he is currently professor at the Institute for Theoretical Physics of the KU Leuven. Hertog is also guest professor at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, Santa Barbara, visiting senior fellow at Trinity College, Cambridge, and affiliate member of the International Solvay Institutes for Physics, Brussels.
At the KU Leuven Hertog leads a research team that investigates the physical nature of black holes and the big bang. In this context he has a longstanding interest in gravitational waves - ripples of spacetime once predicted by Einstein. Hertog leads Belgium’s participation in the European Space Agency’s first gravitational-wave mission and in Einstein Telescope, a future gravitational-wave observatory underground that may well be a game changer for Belgium.
He has recently wrote the book "On the Origin of Time" about his theory of the origin of the universe and his journey with Stephen Hawking.
What is gravity? What do we know about it?Gravity pulls us towards the ground, pulls on our loose skin, attracts objects, and sets planets into orbit. It propels the big scientific minds of our time to develop theories that attempt to explain the behaviour of matter, space, and time. Who are we humans eternally falling while the laws of physics set everything into motion?

Cool
I like science
So ty
If we so much like different perspectives, then here is another one: "Novel quantitative push gravity/electricity theory poised for verification"
It's just as weird for Newton to ascribe a connection between objects as it is for an object to "curve" space.
Why should the space care about a nearby object?
Why wouldn't it just move out of the way a little?
Does the object "grab" the space in order to bend it?
I've never heard anyone even mention the mechanical connection .
I've got no problem if "that's just the way it is" but if that's true, why not just say that?
It's ignored as far as I can tell.
what an incredibly distracting projection screen.
... cocktails without science...
I just love learning more, even at my advance age. The more I learn of science, the deeper my faith in God grows. "The heavens declare the glory of the Lord". Psalm 19:1

Good for you. Keep learning. Try biology and geology as well. Fascinating topics. But make sure to learn from actual scientists. Not charlatans that are everywhere on the internet now
