A Ripple in Space (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781779629647)

This brief manuscript challenges prevailing scientific theories about the universe by providing alternatives. The main argument centres on the theory that gravity does not exist. The Bernoulli effect of a solid travelling through a fluid causing a pressure low on the earth's surface is what we call gravity. Logical inferences based on proven scientific laws explain in a simplistic style how this theory works. Neither Newton's or Einstein's gravitational theories explain how gravity actually works.

Using the premise that gravity is just the Bernoulli effect of total energy equalling the sum of kinetic energy plus potential energy, further logical inferences are made. These inferences include the composition, formation and destruction of planets, stars, and black holes. Internal planetary pressures are delved into suggesting denser matter will consolidate near the solid crust rather than at the core.

So-called dark matter is explained briefly through calling various fine, invisible fluids the electrosphere and magnetosphere. These fluids are also affected by the Bernoulli effect. All these fluids interact with each other to produce air pressure and flow around and through the earth, which has varying Bernoulli effects according to velocity and spin. It accounts for these differences through fluid flow from high pressure to low pressure, both within the atmosphere and liquid rock or magma beneath the crust. Wave mechanics also help explain how a solid crust affects and reveals liquids.

Bohr's theory of the atom and the Big Bang theory are also questioned.

Hopefully, this will reignite research into widely accepted scientific theories.
