Some Invalidations of Newton's and Kepler's orbital Mechanics.

Some simple invalidations of Newton’s and Kepler’s orbital mechanics –

1. The orbital mechanics of Newton dictates the earth orbits the sun’s center of mass in an ellipse, yet Newtonian mechanics states the earth also orbits the solar system barycenter. As the solar system barycenter is almost never at the center of mass of the sun, then the earth simply cannot be orbiting the sun in an ellipse. Therefore Newton’s principle of barycentric motion invalidates Kepler’s laws of elliptical motion.

2. Newton’s orbital mechanics dictates the earth orbits the sun’s center of mass in an ellipse. Newton’s orbital mechanics dictates the earth orbits the earth-moon barycenter ever month. Now if the earth is fixed in its elliptical orbit around the sun, then both the earth-moon barycenter and the moon orbit the earth every month, to maintain the earths elliptical orbit shape around the earth every year. Yet if this occurs, Newton’s notion of the barycenter as the center of mass about which the masses orbit as affirmed in the sun-earth motion and then denied in the earth-moon motion. As Newton’s center of mass concludes to a contradiction with more than two bodies in motion, the theory of the center of mass and with it, mass as a cause of gravity, is invalidated.

3. Newton’s orbital mechanics dictates the earth orbits the solar system’s center of mass in an ellipse. Yet, Newton’s orbital mechanics dictates the earth orbits the earth-moon barycenter every month. To properly account for the Earth’s monthly motion around the earth-moon barycenter and the motion of the earth around the solar system barycenter, the earth cannot be orbiting the solar system barycenter in an ellipse as demonstrated above, so the other options available to explain the sun-earth-moon orbits are –

A- The earth-moon barycenter orbits the solar system barycenter in an ellipse. But this option is not in accord with Newton’s notion of a barycenter, where it is a stationary point, relative to the motion of bodies. Furthermore, if the earth-moon barycenter orbits the solar system barycenter, then the earth’s yearly orbit does not conform to Kepler’s orbital laws.

B- The Earth-moon barycentric motion is independent of the earth-solar system barycentric motion. But such movements are never independent in the real, indicating Newton’s notion of the barycenter is not a reflection of the real.

C- The earth does not orbit in the Earth-moon barycentric motion, nor does it move around the solar system barycenter, but is stationary at the barycenter of the universe. This solution gives some respectability to Newton’s notion of the barycenter, but is normally denied by modern science out of blind prejudice.

4. Newton’s orbital mechanics dictates the earth moves around the earth-moon barycenter. If we take the earth’s velocity at the earth center of mass when it orbits the earth-moon barycenter, the velocity of the earth varies between a maximum of v=+-0.012km/s relative to the sun, then the earths orbital velocity relative to a fixed sun is not 30.287 and 29.291 km/s as expected by Kepler’s laws of elliptical orbits, but is 30.229 and 29.279 km/s as expected by Newton’s laws of barycentric motion. As we arrive at two sets of competing velocities for the earth over the Earth’s orbital period, both Newton’s law of barycentric motion and Kepler’s laws of elliptical motion are inconsistent with each other and therefore invalidated.

5. Newton’s orbital mechanics dictates the earth moves around the sun-earth system. Newton’s laws dictate the earth orbits the barycenter of the solar system. As the barycenter of the solar system is rarely (if ever) the same as the sun’s center of mass, then Newton’s laws of barycentric motion as almost always invalidated in the real.

6. Newton’s laws dictate the earth and the sun orbit the barycenter of the solar system. This means the sun orbits the solar system barycenter with a period of approximately 29 years, with a variable velocity of about +-0.0046km/s relative to the earth. Yet the velocity of the earth, relative to the sun, means the earth-sun relative velocity is not 30.229 at the earth’s perihelion and 29.279 km/s at the earth’s aphelion, but is up to approximately 30.234km/s and 29.274km/s respectively depending on the relative directions of the sun’s velocity vector to the earths orbit direction. As these relative velocities are not derivable through Kepler’s laws, the motion of the sun and earth around the solar system barycenter invalidates Kepler’s laws of elliptical orbits.

7. Newton’s law of gravity is claimed to be a universal law of gravity, yet the universal law of gravity is dependent upon the distance r, between the center of mass of bodies orbiting the barycenter. As the barycenter of orbiting masses is arbitrary, depending on the masses included in the calculations, then the universal law is therefore not universal, but merely applicable only at the whim of the man who includes mass or excludes mass. In other words, if the universal law of gravity is really universal, then it would only be applicable when all the masses of the universe are universally taken into account. This means when we exclude masses from the universal law, we are being inconsistent with that law.

One may object to this and say, the universal law of gravitation is applicable to a system of bodies anywhere in the universe and in this respect, the law of gravity is truly said to be universal. Yet when the law is applied anywhere (i.e universally), then it is always applied universally, but arbitrarily with respect to mass included in the calculations. Therefore the so called universal law of gravity is always inconsistent with itself.

Take for example the problem of the earth’s elliptical orbit around the sun. If r1 is the distance between the center of mass of the sun and the earth, then this produces a gravity acceleration of say X, yet, if we include the mass of the other planets in the calcs and use r2 as the distance to the solar system center of mass, r2 is not r1, and the gravity acceleration is not X, but Y caused by the sun and the other planets. So, according to Kepler’s laws, the earth is required to orbit the sun in an ellipse relative to the sun’s center of mass, but according to Newton and Kepler, the earth is also required to orbit the solar systems center of mass in an ellipse.

But as the focus of the two ellipses is not the same, the elliptical orbits are not the same, therefore there are two gravity fields acting on the earth, causing the earth to orbit two elliptical focal points at the same time, depending on what masses are included or excluded from the calculations. This means, as the two ellipses are different, the earths velocities through absolute space are different, meaning there is always more than one gravity field acting on the earth at any one time if both Newton’s and Kepler’s laws are consistently applied to the earth’s orbit. Evidently this is absurd, showing Newton’s law of universal gravity is inconsistent with Kepler’s elliptical laws and is not a universal law at all, but only a mathematical approximation, based upon a selection of local masses, mass attraction and absolute space.

8. Newton’s physics requires the assumption of absolute space, yet relativity denies the existence of absolute space, therefore modern physics invalidates Newtonian physics.

9. Kepler’s laws of elliptical orbits were based upon the assumption of the earth’s motion relative to the stationary sun and other planets. The motion of the other planets are observed and equations are then derived form Newton’s laws with assume the sun is the center of the solar system, because the smaller always orbits the larger mass. As there are several inherent inconsistencies within Newtonian mechanics and contradictions between Newton’s laws and Kepler’s elliptical orbit laws, then it is highly likely that the other planets in the solar system do not orbit the sun in elliptical orbits. In fact, when we take into account the mass of all the planets and the sun, which all are said to orbit the solar system barycenter, the solar system planets definitely do not orbit the sun in ellipses at all, thereby invalidating Kepler’s laws of elliptical orbits.

10. Kepler’s elliptical orbit laws are said to be an accurate approximation of the motion of the planets in the solar system, yet if those laws are derived by assuming the motion of the earth, (which is a false premise in Kepler’s derivation), then Kepler’s laws of elliptical orbits do not hold in the solar system. As many experiments have been performed such as the lunar laser ranging experiment, the Michelson Morley experiment, Michelson Gale experiment, Airy’s experiment and so on, which evidence a stationary earth, then Kepler’s assumed premise of a moving earth is false and the other planets must be orbiting the sun, which in turn orbits a stationary earth every day.

This means the solar system planetary orbits cannot be ellipses with respect to either the sun, solar system barycenter, the earth, or absolute space, but must be accounted for as a complex double motion around the sun and the earth. Therefore Kepler’s laws of orbital ellipses are invalidated and a new physics is required to account for the motion of the solar system planets around the stationary earth (rather than the falsified solar system barycenter).

The more we investigate the status of Newtonian and Kepler’s laws of physics, the more we see how internally and relatively inconsistent those laws are. Evidently the problems with Newton’s physics and Kepler’s laws shown above invalidate those laws and a new physics is needed to account for what modern science tells us about the motion of the sun and the planets relative to a stationary earth.
