Einstein's theory of General Relativity is an extension of Special Relativity into the general case of non-inertial frames, the result is a theory of gravity that extends and corrects Newtonian gravitation. According to General relativity, gravity results from a space-time distortion caused by the presence of a mass. From an experimental and demonstration standpoint, this is mechanically and mathematically much like placing a weight on a rubber sheet, then observing the behavior of other objects rolled in a near-tangential path. General Relativity has to date passed every experimental test devised for it, making it one the best verified theories in Physics . Surprisingly it is has proven to be quite useful to Creation Science and it actually supports some aspects of Biblical teaching. For a detailed description of General Relativity see the article at Wikipedia One of the most verified aspects of General relativity is gravitational time dilation . Dr. Russell Humphreys shows in his White Hole Cosmology that gravitational time dilation can solve the problem of getting distant star light to Earth even though creation occurred less than 10,000 years ago. General relativity not only provides a solution to to the distant star light problem but can solve other

Before beginning this brief article, dealing with the essential features of General Relativity, we have to postulate one thing: Special Relativity is supposed to be true. Hence, General Relativity lies on Special Relativity. If the latter were proved to be false, the whole edifice would collapse. In order to understand General Relativity, we have to define how mass is defined in classical mechanics.

    Extractions: Jump to: navigation search General relativity is the physics of the very large. The earth is small, and our sun is far away, so anything an average person does can be described by the much simpler Newtonian physics . When you start dealing with things that are very large, like stars and galaxies , things start to move and interact differently. The science of how this works is called general relativity. General relativity is a theory of space and time created by Albert Einstein and published in . The central idea of general relativity is that space and time are two aspects of something called spacetime , which is curved in the presence of matter energy , and momentum , in a way that Einstein wrote down in the Einstein Field Equations In general relativity, freefall is inertial motion instead of being at rest on a massive body such as the Earth , as described by the equivalence principle General relativity has made many successful predictions. These include: The bending of light as it passes the Sun by twice the Newtonian value for an object traveling at the speed of light . This was confirmed by Eddington in , and the announcement forced scientists to take general relativity seriously.

    Extractions: General Relativity The general theory of relativity derives its origin from the need to extend the new space and time concepts of the special theory of relativity from the domain of electric and magnetic phenomena to all of physics and, particularly, to the theory of gravitation. As space and time relations underlie all physical phenomena, it is conceptually intolerable to have to use mutually contradictory notions of space and time in dealing with different kinds of interactions, particularly in view of the fact that the same particles may interact with each other in several different wayselectromagnetically, gravitationally, and by way of so-called nuclear forces. Though the general theory of relativity is universally accepted as the most satisfactory basis of the gravitational force now known, it has not been completely fused with quantum mechanics, of which the central concept is that energy and angular momentum exist only in finite and discrete lumps, called quanta. Since the 1920s quantum mechanics has been the sole rationale of the forces that act between subatomic particles; gravitation doubtless is one of these forces, but its effects are unobservably small in comparison to electromagnetic and nuclear forces. Relativistic phenomena in the subatomic realm have been adequately dealt with by merging quantum mechanics with the special, not the general, theory. Many physicists, foremost among them Einstein himself, tried during the first half of the 20th century to enrich the geometric structure of space-time so as to encompass all known physical interactions. Their goal, a unified field theory, remained elusive but was brought nearer during the late 1960s by the successful unification of the electromagnetic and the so-called weak nuclear force.

Curvature of the four-dimensional space-time is the basis of general relativity. A curved space is difficult to conceive particularly the fourth dimension is peculiar. Einstein calls it t=x . It seems simpler to consider it as an imaginary number ict where i is the quadratic root of -1 and c the speed of light. Then the space-time has the following four dimensions: (x,y,z,w=ict). Understanding of general relativity, like restricted relativity, will be easier by using two dimensions (x, y=ict) instead of four. With this representation, we will have a riemannian instead of pseudo-riemannian space. Cartesian coordinates are the most common reference system. The Earth, being spherical, is not a flat space and the Pythagorean theorem is valid only locally. The cartesian frame changes its orientation from place to place but the law of gravity is the same in Paris or in Valparaiso. The Riemann coordinates are local cartesian coordinates. They are such that the Pythagorean theorem is valid even on a curved surface. It is not necessary to know the transformation from curved coordinates to use them. They are not always suitable, for example, it is necessary to compute the Riemann tensor in Gauss (e.g. spherical) coordinates in order to obtain the Schwarzschild metric.

    Extractions: Office Supplies Buy Posters A-Z Products Website Advertising ... General Relativity is the common name for the theory of gravitation published by Albert Einstein in . According to general relativity the force of gravity is a manifestation of the local geometry of spacetime . Although the modern theory is due to Einstein, its origins go back to the axioms of Euclidean geometry and the many attempts over the centuries to prove Euclid 's fifth postulate, that parallel lines remain always equidistant, culminating with the realisation by Bolyai and Gauss that this axiom need not be true. The general mathematics of non-Euclidean geometries was developed by Gauss' student, Riemann , but these were thought to be wholly inapplicable to the real world until Einstein had developed his theory of relativity. The special theory of relativity (1905) modified the equations used in comparing the measurements made by differently moving bodies, in view of the constant value of the speed of light: this had the consequence that physics could no longer treat space and time separately, but only as a single four-dimensional system, "space-time," which was divided into "time-like" and "space-like" directions differently depending on the observer's motion. The general theory added to this that the presence of matter "warped" the local space-time environment, so that apparently "straight" lines through space and time have the properties we think of "curved" lines as having.

    Extractions: In Einstein's little book Relativity: the Special and the General Theory , he introduces general relativity with a parable. He imagines going into deep space, far away from gravitational fields, where any body moving at steady speed in a straight line will continue in that state for a very long time. He imagines building a space station out there - in his words, "a spacious chest resembling a room with an observer inside who is equipped with apparatus." Einstein points out that there will be no gravity, the observer will tend to float around inside the room. But now a rope is attached to a hook in the middle of the lid of this "chest" and an unspecified "being" pulls on the rope with a constant force. The chest and its contents, including the observer, accelerate "upwards" at a constant rate. How does all this look to the man in the room? He finds himself moving towards what is now the "floor" and needs to use his leg muscles to stand. If he releases anything, it accelerates towards the floor, and in fact all bodies accelerate at the same rate. If he were a normal human being, he would assume the room to be in a gravitational field, and might wonder why the room itself didn't fall. Just then he would discover the hook and rope, and conclude that the room was suspended by the rope.

    Extractions: A Simplified Introduction to General Relativity Before launching into general relativity, I thought I'd review a few basic derivations in differential geometry. The simplest possible case of interest would probably be: s = x + y or, over small distances, ds = dx + dy As a review exercise, we could use the calculus of variations to derive the equation for the geodesic curve—i.e., the shortest distance between two points—through the Euclidean space defined by this Pythgorean theorem distance formula . (It better come out to be a straight line!) The distance to be minimized is: and the standard variational integral is: Then the standard, grind-the-crank Euler-Lagrange equations are: But inasmuch as f isn't an explicit function of either x or y, and which means that so that Evaluating f x and f y , and remembering that ds = f dx and What these equations are saying in their cumbersome way is that the line which minimizes the distance between any two points on a plane makes a constant angle with the horizontal and the vertical...that is, that it's a straight line. Well, okay, that checked out...like using a cannon to shoot a squirrel, but it worked. Now for something more ambitious, like the shortest distance between two points in space-time. The equation for the shortest distance between two points—the geodesic curve—becomes:

    Extractions: A respected, no-nonsense reporter, Knapp has a master’s degree in communications and has won AP and UPI awards for his quality UFO journalism. He accepts Lazar’s story because too much of it checks out. In 1989, Lazar passed a lie-detector test arranged by Knapp. At MUFON’s 1992 Midwest Conference in Springfield, Missouri, Knapp presented further strong evidence of Lazar’s credibility. Lazar had mentioned that a man by the name of Mike Thigpen had visited his house and interviewed him in connection with his S4 employment. Kristen Merck and Mrs. Wayne Higdon, two witnesses who happened to be at Lazar’s house, confirmed Thigpen’s visit. Knapp rhetorically asks, “How did Bob Lazar know the name Mike Thigpen?” Also hard to explain away is the unusual response the State of Nevada received when it requested documents about Lazar from the federal government. The reply said that information on Bob Lazar was on a need-to-know basis, and you don’t need to know. This kind of reply is consistent with Lazar’s having had a high security clearance.
