INTRODUCTION

The ether existed in the minds of man for at least three millennia. It was the invisible ‘atmosphere and /or‘spirit that permeated all matter and life. It marched hand in hand with both metaphysics and physics which included the phenomena of astrology, astronomy, biology, light, gravity, electrification and magnetization and more.

The perception of ether grew steadily with science, peaking towards the end of the 19th century. Luminaries like Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler stated in 1760, his belief that the‘luminiferous ether which propagates light, also propagates electrical phenomena. British physicist James Maxwell, the father of electromagnetic wave theory, forcefully argued for a form of its existence.

It shocked and distressed many persons of science when in 1887 German born American physicist Albert Abraham Michelson (1852-1931) and American chemist Edward Morley (1838-1923) announced they had executed the ether.

Michelson believed he had killed it with light rays using an interferometer while hunting the snark in Berlin, however there was a chance that the beast was only wounded. To eliminate this possibility he enlisted the services of Morley, a respected chemist and reputed perfectionist, to repeat the Berlin experiment with greater precision.

At the Case School of Applied Science in Cleveland Ohio they built a rigid based, (it was literally anchored in bedrock), altar, aimed their ray gun on it and fired across it.
They reasoned the since the planet Earth was flying though the ether, and since the ether supported light, then light rays fired in some directions would prosper over rays in other directions.
The rays however were found to be invariable so they proclaimed the ether wasn’t there. It didn’t exist any more! It was dead! But it was not erased.

It haemorrhaged in purgatory for about twenty years until Albert Einstein delivered the coup de grace, sealed it in a relatively heavy sarcophagus and buried it in the unkempt graveyard of toppled theories.
There it suffocates beneath the suppositions of the ever vigilant ‘Professorial Guards’ and their precursors.
Occasional a maverick would creep in at night and put forget-me-nots on the grave, but these were quickly withered by the Guard’s fusty breath.

As the 19th century rolled into the 20th and the 20th into the 21st the rebellious visitors dwindled, but in the heart of hearts of many scientists and all Trekies, lonely ethereal embers still smoulder waiting for a logical breeze.

How many roads must a man walk down
B4 he learns, looks deceive
And how many eons can illusions persist
B4 our scholars break free
Yes/n how many years did Copernicus speak
B4 his words were believed

Magnetism my friend, flows with the Coulomb wind
The answer is blown in the wind

The stumbling block in fixing the direction of magnetism is described in the Utube
‘Uniforms aint Uniform’

Currents in solenoids spin vortexes of magnetism.
Like spins attract; opposite spins repel.
Iron filings fall along the eyes of a magnet’s mini-vortexes (vortlets)

Considering what is spinning implies that Space is real; it has embodiment.
This has been taboo for two centuries.
Penalties include peer ridicule, and physics-excommunication.

‘Conquista ‘ describes the logical direction  of magnetism as it permeates all physics.

Electric charges are not divine.
Coulomb energy does not begin at a zero point and perish at another.
It travels from positive to negetive then returns to positive
thru another set of dimensions I call ‘the antiverse’.
*The antiverse is the domain of anti-charge not antimatter*

The first law of thermodynamis is rephrased
*Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it always circulates*

If we accept as a priori that all energy always circulates,
then it never stops. It doesn’t have an origin or an end.
Accordingly, even when traveling to infinity,
it must somehow find a way home thru other dimensions.
Infinity then is the virtual vertex of infinite energy’s inter-dimensional loop.

It I were a religeous man I would say
God is the Mighty Plumber

Conquista del Éter’ begins by tracking the physics of Ether from Ancient Tmes
to its MichelsonMorley demise in 1887.
It continues with the ‘Century without Ether’ 1900-2000;
the domain of mathematical physics, where without Ether,
science speculated in a vacuum.
The Odyssee illuminates that dark century.

‘Conquista’ follows its revised ‘law of conservation of energy’
discovering rational explanations for Electromagnetism
Nuclear forces, Beta Decay, Space/Cosmology
and Gravity et al.

This dyslexic author dedicates his books to spellcheck.
His dyslexia saved him from academic qualifications,
conservative physics
and wealth.

‘Conquista’ will only ever be published in print.
