Gravitational Engineering - The Graviton Sail

This is an example of why I still have a tough time with the Pushing Gravity concept. If this graviton wind is blowing toward the center of the body why is this action not more three dimensional. In other words why is this action not happening in a more 360 degree space with depth and breadth of the body effectivly cancelling out this wind to the middle of the body. As well would not the same wind be coming from the opposite side of the body thereby pushing back at the object since most of this wind is suppose to go right through the body as well, the net being, the object would in a sense be susppened at a certain distance.

To me this wind is blowing from all angles, why does this particular angle win out?<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">


*** The Really Condensed Story Of Pushing Gravity. ***

* Out in deep space, away from any mass, gravitons "blow" equally in all directions.

* All the time.

* Almost all of these gravitons pass right through any matter they encounter. But a small number do hit, and either bounce or stick. Mostly they bounce.

* An isolated mass out there feels a pressure from all directions as a result of the small percentage of gravitons that either bounce or stick.

* But it experiences no net force because the pressure is equal from all directions.

* The number of gravitons comming up out of its surface is slightly smaller than the number of gravitons going down into its surface.

* The difference is the number that stick inside. To a first approximation.

* So, when another mass gets close enough to the surface of the first mass it will experience this slight imbalance in the number of gravitons passing through it.

* And that slight imbalance causes the net acceleration we know as gravity.

thanks, seems to make sense. i did read half of Pushing Gravity i found it a hard go, perhaps i'm ready to read more of this and more of Tom's book. it is different to how i envisioned gravity to behave but on with it,i would like to at least understand it better.

North,

Expect to read both books several times, and ask many more questions, before you begin to really understand things. (Understanding is necessary, but believeing is optional.)

At some point try to answer a few questions posed by someone new. Then you will begin to get a feel for how well you really do understand.

got'cha, one last question though and i have to ask this, how is the spin of the Quasars,galaxes,stars and planets come into this picture and it's consequences. from a hydrodynamic point of view,which gaseous states can be viewed, there is ramifications which can prove to be,well...interesting.
