That makes no sense - you could get 3x the mass by observing 3x the light. In any case, that's only one of the many inconsistencies in what he is describing - the wave/particle duality of light is another important error he's operating on.Originally posted by elas
if light had/carried mass, then a light source would also be a source of gravity. You could measure it. DATA. His "mathematical fact" is CONTRARY to DATA. It is wrong.
This has been debated on various forums. There is a theoretical mass for light that is roughly 1/3 on the lowest mass measureable experimentally. So the conclusion is only observably wrong because of the limitations of the equipment used to conduct the experiment.
You're just not getting it. Sorry, there isn't any simpler way for me to explain it to you. His math needs to reflect reality. Reality isn't bound to reflect his math. Refusal to accept that will bring you much failure in your scientific pursuits.so I would ask you to put that to one side and return to my request, "is Micheal[/B mathematically correct?,
