This book solves many long-standing problems in physics and cosmology, and provides you with a new, more realistic, perspective on our world: · Spacetime is regular Space filled with Time, and not 4-dimensional surrogate · Time is Quantum Fluctuations, like Temperature is Brownian Motion · Gravity is Time Pressure · Milky Way and Bob Lazar’s craft use the same propulsion · There was no Big Bang · Galaxies were materialized by burning time, with shooting-star-like fireworks of matter, with such events randomly scattered in space and in time (check chapter 51 on how). · Matter/antimatter imbalance is local to a galaxy, but balanced in the Universe.

Two unabridged addresses summarizing aspects of Einstein's Special and General Theories of Relativity comprise this succinct volume. The first, Ether and Relativity, was delivered in 1920 and examines the properties demanded of the ether of space by the theory of relativity. Geometry and Experience, delivered the following year, describes the limits within which the Euclidean system can be held to be approximately true in relation to the concept of a finite universe. Written clearly and concisely, these lectures are a fascinating read for both scientist and layman. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
