It's still not aether, it's an awkward prediction of infinite energy. As incredibly cool as I think that would be, I suspect that we're going to find that there is an equal and opposite effect going on. If it's real, then Arthur C Clark predicted not only a whole lot of energy, but a heat crisis to boot. Know how that would happen? - 73 de Mike N3LI - |

So is this like the aether that acts as a transport medium, or is it like quanta, that pop into and out of existence? And that's where I have the issue. Use of the two terms like that is confusing. I find that some like to invoke the term as some sort of vindication of previous ideas, some just invoke a superficial resemblance. I remember when I first learned of quantum soup, I immediately thought of aether, but after ten seconds or so, I figured it was a very superficial resemblance only. - 73 de Mike N3LI - |

It is quanta that pop into and out of existence that acts as a transport medium for EM waves. EM waves cannot propagate without "it" as a medium. That's why EM waves cannot escape the universe - witness the 12+ billion year old background radiation still propagating through the quantum aether to this very day. -- 73, Cecil, w5dxp.com |
