Our best model of particle physics explains only about 5 percent of the universe.
The Standard Model is a thing of beauty. It is the most rigorous theory of particle physics, incredibly precise and accurate in its predictions. It mathematically lays out the 17 building blocks of nature: six quarks, six leptons, four force-carrier particles, and the Higgs boson. These are ruled by the electromagnetic, weak and strong forces.
As for the question What are we? the Standard Model has the answer, says Saúl Ramos, a researcher at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). It tells us that every object in the universe is not independent, and that every particle is there for a reason.
its great predictive power, however, the Standard Model fails to answer five crucial questions, which is why particle physicists know their work is far from done.
1. Why do neutrinos have mass? Three of the Standard Models particles are different types of neutrinos. The Standard Model predicts that, like photons, neutrinos should have no mass. However, scientists have found that the three neutrinos oscillate, or transform into one another, as they move. This feat is only possible because neutrinos are not massless after all.

Combine all three on one line.
Yeah, me not understand this.
That's because they are using computer models. . . like the Global Warming Climate "scientists," to test their math. Even then to make their math work they have to invoke black, unseen fudge factors in the form of "Dark Matter" to make it work. They are desperately trying to find their black magic in the real universe to force it to comport with their model universe inside the computers. So far, nope, not there. Later, their computers and the real world Universe messed things up by experimentally throwing a monkey wrench into the works when they observed strange acceleration they could not account for, so they added "Dark Energy" to their models. They can't find that either.
Yet they ignore a force that is thirty-nine orders of magnitude stronger than gravity, is also infinite in reach, but arbitrarily choose to rule it just isn't there, despite all evidence that everywhere they look they see its affects and effects. Electromagnetism. . . and that the proponents of the Electric Universe have made specific predictions of these very things that so baffle the standard gravity model cosmology proponents. . . and have been right every single time. The test of any model or theory is the quality and accuracy of its predictions. Here, the standard theory model proponents they can explain on 5%, yet the Electric Universe proponents are batting about 95% or higher. They've even been able to explain gravity.
I think neutrinos are the most interesting particle in physics.
Four Nobel Prizes have been won (so far) by people who studied them; these are particles that for a long time people basically thought couldn’t be studied because they interact so feebly with ordinary matter.
I learn everything I can about the fascinating neutrino.
they can’t even say what the speed of gravity is
gravity appears to be instant in its effects over any distance no matter how large
which is a big big problem for any particle-based explanation of how gravity is supposed to work
Winner winner, chicken dinner! Lmao
The article explained a problem that everything is moving away from us quickly. If this is true than we must be in the center of the expansion. That would put us in a very special and privileged place. The center of Creation!
Thanks Sheldon.
1. Why do neutrinos have mass?
Neutrinos have mass? I didn’t even know they were Catholic.
Thanks Swordmaker.
A raisin in cake dough will find the rest of the raisins receding from it as the dough rises. The is obviously no indication that the raisin is at the center of the cake.
“1. Why do neutrinos have mass?” Answer, “because a we ate ah too much spaghetti and meatballs, don’t ah be ah wise guy, momma mia”
Gravity is only “instant” because it is NOT a particle, or energy wave. It does not travel.
It’s a warp in space-time. Not unlike resting a bowling ball in the middle of a trampoline.
Gravity is the warp. The Trampoline is the space-time fabric.
I’m pretty sure Einstein already figured this one out.
They’re spending an awful lot of money trying to find “gravity waves” for something that’s already been figured out. Why do you figure that’s so?
Well, I don’t KNOW that it’s already figured out.
Maybe there’s disagreement among physicists, past and present.
The current status is that people still have no idea what gravity is and how it actually works, and the few things people appear to be sure of are contradictory and inconsistent.
Fabric bespeaks of a planar concept. I cannot imagine forces in space/time being uniplanar.
I have long wondered what the output would be if biblical creation principles were digitized and run through the modelling programs.
You would probably end up with the Worlds in Collision scenario.
Einstein represented it as a planar concept for us mere mortals, so that we would be able to picture his gifted vision.
There’s a passage in Special Relativity which then asks the reader to wrap the fabric around an object with mass and imagine the grids extending outward omni directionally.
I can almost picture that, but not quite.
I guess it’s kinda like dust particles floating in water, with water being space-time. And the closer you get to the particle the more dense the water is.
Even though he wrote it for mortal man, it’s still over my head. But there are those who have studied it, and it makes sense to them.
And there is no doubt Einstein was explaining the EFFECT of gravity on mass and space-time, not the causal agent. It has a most peculiar behavior, linked to mass, bypassing time...but not space.
It will take another Einstein to figure that out. Let’s hope he pops up before we’re dead.
But I wish I know even the basics.
