RE: #WeirdScience | Einstein’s Theory of Relativity is Junk Science!

in #science6 years ago

Newtonian mechanics can only be used to a certain degree, it is not good to the degree of precision that is currently known. According to the space-time that is proposed by the theory of relativity, as something speeds up, its mass is converted to energy. That is, as I'm moving closer to the speed of light, time slows down. If you'd like to see this in an effect of your daily life, just check your GPS...

Like I said, relativity is junk science...variance in time between a GPS satellite and a clock on Earth is caused by air density of the atmosphere, not gravity.

Unfortunately, you're very wrong and I'm sorry that you think you are right. There is no 'air' in space, and yet we have to account for the speed of the Voyager spacecraft as they are speeding past the extent of influence from our Sun. Please, go back and read some books. You can not speak from a position of authority and think that so many discoveries about our solar system, galaxy, and universe, would have ever been possible without a solid understanding and application of the theory of relativity. I appreciate your enthusiasm, but you're wrong... very, very, wrong. I will not get into a Facebook style argument with you since it's of no use, but if you're interested in some books that will help you understand, I'm more than willing to suggest some!

Yes, you've proven my point even more so!
