Watch the following video starting at 0:45. youtube.com/watch?v=s9ITt44-EHE "Imagine the Earth as if it were immersed in honey," says Francis Everitt of Stanford University in California, "As the planet rotates, the honey around it would swirl, and it's the same with space and time." The 'swirl' is more correctly described as the state of displacement of the aether. The state of the aether as determined by its connections with the Earth and the state of the aether in neighboring places is the state of displacement of the aether. | |
