Vertically curved spacetime or we have a micro blackhole orbiting Earth?
According to the link, "the rotation of an object would alter space and time, dragging a nearby object out of position compared to the predictions of Newtonian physics. The predicted effect is incredibly small — about one part in a few trillion."
That "one part in a few trillion" is roughly the same order as some of the perturbation effects that have a meaningful effect on satellite trajectories....
My thought, too....
Tractor Beams?
Well, global warming explains every other thing that happens in the universe, so let’s just lump this in as well.
Has anybody ever considered that the current induced in the metallic spacecraft, which acts like a micro henry inductor?
For the sake of simplicity (for discussion purposes) The magnetic field of the earth is torroidically shaped. Flux lines run from pole to pole. @ the equater, flux lines are 90 Deg. perpendicular to the poles. As the craft traverses through the magnetic field, A voltage is induced end to end on the body of the craft, . [ (v) = (L) (di/dt) ] . A magnetic field then surrounds the craft. The shift is 90 deg. to the ecliptic. In neutral (electrical) polarity , @ 90 deg. , there is zero magnetic repulsion or repelling force. Thus the calculated velocity is dependent solely upon gravitational law, and is compliant with newtonian theory. These craft are usually ballistic , ( rotation around a gravity neutral center). Therefore , If the craft traverses the gravitational field of the planet at any angle relative to the magnetic poles other than 90 deg. ,
( north to south , or south to north ) , The magnetic fields of the earth vs the field of the craft are no longer polarity neutral ( rotational axis of craft vs rotational axis of the planet ). When this happens , the mass of the craft acts as a dynamo core , and the circulating current heats the craft. ( induction ) . The rotational axis of the craft is perturbed , and it extracts energy from the magnetic field of the earth. All this results in a very slight magnetic attraction , or repulsion , Depending upon the angle of the atmospheric “ cut “ , calcuably compliant with the sine of the angle ( X ) L (spacecraft Inductance equivelant) (X) (DI/DT). Attraction or repulsion is determined by the polarity of the orbital cut , which determines whether it is a neg. or pos. DI/DT interger.
The magnetic “drag” is the result of induction principle
at work. AND THEN , Since the craft rotates on an axis , and likewise the planet , the intermingling lines of thier respective flux lines cutting through each other at angles,
there is the standard force applied to each others mass ,
which manifests itself in a physical push - pull contest.
Force dependant upon angle , field strength , coupling coefficient , and mass. (relative). Push or pull dependant upon the polarity of the DI/DT interger’s polarity , + -
and will automatically reverse as it crosses the magnetic
ecliptic . Nothing is simple , is it ? I need another beer.
