It has been observed that the rotational velocity of Galaxies does not depend on r, but remains constant as r varies; this has led to the hypothesis of the existence of dark matter. In this Theory we show that we can explain the constancy of this velocity with the use of quantum mechanical principles. This does not rule out the existence of dark matter and dark energy.

Twenty-six years ago, a small committee report built upon earlier studies to articulate a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy. This vision called for an infrared-optimized space telescope with an aperture of at least four meters. With the support of their governments in the US, Europe, and Canada, 20,000 people brought this vision to life as the 6.5-meter James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The telescope is working perfectly, delivering much better image quality than expected [1].JWST is one hundred times more powerful than the Hubble Space Telescope and has already captured spectacular images of the distant universe. A view of a tiny part of the sky reveals many well-formed spiral galaxies, some over thirteen billion light-years away. These observations challenge the standard Big Bang Model (BBM), which posits that early galaxies should be small and lack well-formed spiral structures. JWST's findings are prompting scientists to reconsider the BBM in its current form. Throughout the history of science, technological advancements have led to new results that challenge established theories, sometimes necessitating their modification or even abandonment. This happened with the geocentric model four centuries ago, and the BBM may face a similar reevaluation as JWST provides more images of the distant universe.In 1937, P. Dirac proposed the Large Number Hypothesis and the Hypothesis of Variable Gravitational Constant, later incorporating the concept of Continuous Creation of Matter in the universe. The Hypersphere World-Universe Model (WUM) builds on these ideas, introducing a distinct mechanism for matter creation. WUM is proposed as an alternative to the prevailing BBM. Its main advantage is the elimination of the "Initial Singularity" and "Inflation," offering explanations for many unresolved problems in Cosmology. WUM is presented as a natural extension of Classical Physics with the potential to catalyze a paradigm shift in both Cosmology and Classical Physics. Considering JWST's discoveries, WUM's successes, and 87 years of Dirac’s proposals, it is high time to initiate a paradigm shift in Astronomy, Cosmology, and Classical Physics.The present paper is a continuation of the published article "JWST Discoveries—Confirmation of World-Universe Model Predictions" [2] and a summary of the paper "Hypersphere World-Universe Model: Digest of Presentations John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society" [3]. Many results obtained there are quoted in the current work without full justification; interested readers are encouraged to view the referenced papers for detailed explanations.

Relativity is believed by most to be a seminal moment in scientific achievement. It continues to form the basis of our entire cosmology, including the big bang. Even so, many of its declarations are manifestly contradictory and metaphysical. Its lingering discrepancies, inconsistencies, and seemingly unresolvable conflicts elicit a myriad of questions that have up to the present been more ignored and rationalized by conditioned beliefs than soberly confronted and rationally explained through rigorous objective logic. For the dissenting, this casts further doubt on its veracity and arouses even more skepticism while faith-based adherents remain dismissive, complacent, and preemptively unswayable. Bridging the growing divide and arriving at a workable consensus does not appear possible any time soon. With relativity permeating popular culture and firmly entrenched in academia's pervasive obligatory groupthink, uncompromising independent investigation that maturely and realistically explores the tenability of its many conspicuous incongruities seems the only practical way forward for those seriously pursuing reality.

The Sagnac effect can be interpreted as evidence of anisotropy in light speed as a first-order effect (proportional to the ratio of v to c) at the scale of Earth's rotation, but not at higher velocities such as Earth's orbital speed or its speed relative to the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). Logically, one would expect that Michelson interferometer-type experiments, which investigate second-order effects (proportional to the ratio of v^2 to c^2), would yield analogous results across different speeds, albeit on a much smaller scale due to squaring. That is, null results would be expected at the CMB and orbital speeds, while a non-null result would emerge at the scale of Earth's rotation. Specifically, interferometer experiments using optical resonators should possess sufficient resolution to verify this. This paper demonstrates that, contrary to expectations, none of the existing experiments account for Earth's rotation, as the data analysis systematically factors it out. A non-null result in first-order experiments, which involve non-inertial reference frames, can be explained by General Relativity. However, second-order experiments are conducted in inertial reference frames, where Special Relativity fails to explain a non-null result. Thus, detecting a second-order effect due to Earth's rotation could provide insights into new physics.

The metric tensor defines the geometry of spacetime in General Relativity. Although it satisfies the field equations, the tensor obtained by Application of the Newtonian limit to the vacuum Schwarzschild solution presents discontinuity in the mapping of the metric by the gravitational field, resulting in undefined points.Considering the superimposition of the kinematic effect on the gravitational field in the Lorentz factor and a transformed Lagrangian function is presented in the study of total energy.The function caters for relativistic speeds in energy expressions and avoids low speed limitation. Extrapolation of the weak field condition is addressed by mapping the rest energy.A regular metric tensor in spacetime is obtained for the condition of a stationary universe, and it is pointed out how it differs from the Schwarzschild resolution and the resulting metric by Newtonian approximation.

Comments: 6 Pages. A chapter of the book: Quantum Theory and Symmetries
In this paper, we speculate on a possible connection between the Bayes’s law and the Einstein’s general relativity equation to support the use of a metric based on an erfc gravitational potential that has been recently proposed to provide some cues to open problems in the solar systems. Starting from a basic interdependence premise, an analogy between Einstein’s equation and Bayes’s law is used to analyze the linear case of a weak field static symmetric massive object, providing a probabilistic context that takes into account the probability of presence of a given energy density in its corresponding 4D curved space-time manifold. Using the Central Limit Theorem to model globally the very slow process of star formation and mathematically express the corresponding probability density, the new framework provides a rationale for the emergence of a weighted Newton’s law of gravitation. One key feature of this modified gravity model is that it relies on the existence of an intrinsic emergent physical constant (sigma), a star-specific proper length that scales all its surroundings.

How can the author assess whether Einstein, a scientific supernova on the planet, was right or wrong without fully exposing Einstein’s conception of the universe compared to objective reality? G. B. Shaw once noted that only a few have shaped our understanding of the universe, including Ptolemy, Newton, and Einstein. In 1930, Shaw remarked: "Einstein has made a universe, and I can’t tell you how long that will last." However, the author asserts in 2024 that Einstein’s universe is fundamentally flawed. The author has debunked it using the objective reality approach that recently helped him discover two new conceptual universes: the erring universe and the whole universe. In this paper, the author details the scientific advancements these two new universes offer compared to those of Newton and Einstein. He addresses and resolves three shortcomings in Newton’s and Einstein’s frameworks. The erring universe unveils the principle of cosmic structure, while the whole universe reveals the principle of cosmic design. Together, they represent the pinnacle of scientific progress, providing the ultimate frame of reference and underpinning natural laws and causal explanations in the universe. This synthesis suggests that religion, based on the concept of a divine creator, and science, through the lens of objective reality, may differ from existing cosmological models in their joint quest to understand the universe’s grand design. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature— have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse (Romans 1:20, NIV). The artificial truth of Einstein’s universe seems as illusory as "The Emperor’s New Clothes"—a profound misdirection that has distorted objective reality and caused incalculable harm to scientific understanding.

In this article, considering the work referenced in that allows for emulation motion up to ¼ of the speed of light, appropriate modifications have been considered where by classes of metamaterials or ordinary magneto-electric materials can be used for an emulation Alcubierre drive that permits superluminal motion.

General relativity can be difficult for undergraduate students to comprehend, partly because the math is difficult and partly because it is not based on a simple physical model. However, in many situations general relativity can be interpreted as ordinary wave refraction in a non-uniform medium, with the refractive index (or wave speed) derived from only two independent components of a spatially isotropic diagonal spacetime metric. This work utilizes an elastic solid model of the vacuum to explain how the presence of wave energy would modify a medium to produce the metric variations of general relativity in a quasi-static environment. This analysis provides model-based explanations for many predictions of general relativity, including curved space, black holes, gravitational waves, and the different accelerations of light and massive objects.

Today, a growing number of researchers share a sense of stagnation in the field of Physics. In many ways, this situation is reminiscent of the late 19th century when it was widely believed that the body of Physics was nearly complete. It may be an opportune moment to propose new fundamental models that are not only simpler than the current state of the art but also open up new areas of research. Several ideas presented in this Digest are not new, and I do not claim credit for them. In fact, many of these ideas, originally proposed by classical scientists, are revisited here with fresh insights. This Digest aims to describe the World by unifying and simplifying existing models and results in Cosmology into a single coherent picture.Hypersphere World—Universe Model (WUM) is proposed as an alternative to the prevailing Big Bang Model. The main advantage of WUM is its elimination of the "Initial Singularity" and "Inflation," providing explanations for many unresolved problems in Cosmology. This Digest offers an overview of WUM covering the period from 2013 to 2024 (detailed in Part 2 and the referenced materials) and explores various themes of the World (Presentations 1 — 8). It concludes a series of articles published in the Journal of High Energy Physics, Gravitation and Cosmology [3]-[39]. Many results obtained in those articles are referenced here without full justification; interested readers are encouraged to consult the referenced articles (Part 2) for more details. WUM is a classical model and should be described using classical notions, which define emergent phenomena. An Emergent Phenomenon is a property that is a result of simple interactions that work cooperatively to create a more complex interaction. These simple interactions occur at the microscopic level, while their collective outcomes can be observed at the macroscopic level. WUM introduces classical notions from the moment the first ensemble of particles was created ≅10^(-18) s. Classical Physics is dealing with ensembles of quantum objects!

Recent experimental and theoretical work has shown that classical wave processes can produce phenomena previously thought to be beyond the scope of classical physics. We describe how a simple hand-held model can be used to demonstrate the connection between classical waves and modern physics. The model consists of illustrations of two sets of wave crests. A stationary particle is modeled by wave crests propagating in circles. A moving particle is modeled by rotating the orientation of the wave crests so that they would propagate along helical paths rather than circular paths. An internal clock is assumed to tick each time a wave completes a full revolution around the cylinder common to both wave packets. These two model wave packets demonstrate relativistic frequency shift, time dilation, length contraction, and the de Broglie wavelength.

The Natario warp drive appeared for the first time in $2001$.Natario defined a warp drive vector $nX=vs*(dx)$ where $vs$ is the constant speed of the warp bubble and $*(dx)$ is the Hodge Star taken over the x-axis of motion inPolar Coordinates.We compute the Natario warp drive vector for variable velocities.Also we introduced a new warp drive vector $nX=vs*(dx)$ where $vs$ is the constant speed of the warp bubble and $*(dx)$ is the Hodge Star taken over the x-axis of motion in Cylindrical coordinates.We also compute the cylindrical warp drive vector for variable velocities.
